2014 Season 8 of Portland Teen Idol - the last year of only one program - next year - it will be divided into 5 parts throughout the Portland/Vancouver area to support the growing program that has hit new milestones with students participating from over 70 area middle and high schools.

 

 

 

 

 

Singing in English - just like our 2009 runner up Aubrey Cleland that went on to place 11th on American Idol in 2013, or Madison Shanley that placed in the top 100 also in 2013 and 2007 PTI winner Jordan Thompson-Bilyeu who made it into the top 25 on Nashville Star.

 

Singing in Spanish - Added in 2012 has help motivate our partners and founders of the English program to start up Spanish only Movies in the Parks where our students have performed.  Puerto Rican Shani Plunket-de la Cruz won in 2012 and Spainard Daniel Nyounai-Herrera won in 2013 - and also became the only Teen Idol finalist to ever have perfect attendance in ally 7 years of the program by attending some 14 performances, including in Spanish event, English Finale and the Oregon State Fair performances.

 

Stand up Comics - Added in 2012, we were able to give Alex Milshtein, now with our help and support going by Max Van Bureau as his stage name, also went on tour performing standup to thousands.  We also helped him to perform at comedy clubs around Portland too.

 

 

 

 

Singing in Russian NEW! - added for 2014 to meet the City of Portland's addition of Russian only films for Movies in the Park and to expand our language support that will continue to grow for year's to come.
