Dream. Create. Deliver
Hello, I'm Chrissy J de Beer, a young and vibrant South African artist with a burning passion for shaping the stage through my songwriting, singing, dancing, modeling, and acting. Born in 2011, I've embarked on a mission to make waves in the entertainment world, aiming to inspire fellow youngsters and challenge the notion that age is a barrier to pursuing one's passion.
Get Creative
From a tender age, the path to becoming a singer and dancer felt like second nature to me. I believe I sang before I could speak and danced before I could walk, with my passion for the performing arts becoming an integral part of my identity.
The thrill of performing on stage is what truly ignites my spirit. The vibrant interaction with the crowd, the joy of witnessing their reactions, and immersing myself in the audience's energy fuel my love for the spotlight. With each performance, I forge deeper connections with my fans and draw inspiration to create unforgettable moments.
Among the highlights of my career, I cherish the opportunities to perform as an Alumni guest performer at my agency's annual showcase in front of International Industry Leaders. The humbling experience of younger kids recognizing and admiring me showcases the impact I've already made as a role model.
Going International
Facing nerves and stage fright is part of the journey, but I've developed my own strategies to conquer those jitters. Through prayer, focused breathing exercises, and some stretching, I've discovered the power of calming my mind and body, enabling me to deliver stellar performances time and time again with the grace of God.
In the vast realm of singing and dancing, my inspiration knows no bounds. Artists like Dove Cameron, Ariana Grande, and Imagine Dragons have left indelible marks on me, shaping my creative spirit and conveying the message to fans that they are enough just by being themselves.
Balancing a rigorous training and practice schedule alongside school and other activities may seem challenging, but I'm fortunate to have a reliable support system in my Mom, Dad, trainers, and teachers. With a well-structured daily routine, incorporating sports, vocal lessons, instrument practice, and dance sessions, I maintain a healthy equilibrium between education and artistic pursuits.
Leave no stone unturned.
My journey hasn't been without obstacles. Diagnosed with Hyper-mobility Syndrome at the tender age of 6, I faced the constant need to protect my joints during physical activities. However, my determination and resilience shine through as I've learned to manage my limitations, proving that passion and perseverance can overcome any challenge.
A Glimpse into the Future: Exciting Projects on the Horizon
Having recently passed my Grade 3 Modern Dancing Exam, I'm eagerly working on my fourth song, set to be recorded soon. The anticipation of these upcoming projects is palpable, leaving my fans eagerly awaiting the next chapter of my sensational journey. My song selection process is a fusion of personal connection and professional guidance. I listen to new songs, allowing them to resonate with me, while my vocal trainer helps me choose age-appropriate material. Similarly, my dance teacher collaborates with me to select captivating choreography that showcases my talents.
While I excel in pop and R&B genres, my recent interest in musical theatre has opened new doors of creativity. From "Matilda, the Musical" to "Annie," I find myself drawn to the captivating world of Broadway. Winning a Gold Winners medal during the past Eisteddfod for my performance in "Annie's" Tomorrow song showcases my versatility and excitement for exploring and expanding my repertoire. For aspiring singers and dancers, my heartfelt advice is to start performing on stage as early as possible, even in humble settings like church or school shows. Every opportunity to showcase your talent builds resilience and equips you with valuable skills to handle stress. Above all, I emphasize the importance of perseverance and never giving up on one's dreams.
In my performances, I embrace my authenticity and individuality, recognizing that everyone possesses unique talents and strengths. Focusing on showcasing my abilities allows my creativity to shine through on stage. Singing and dancing aren't just passions; they are incredible outlets for stress relief, serving as my sanctuary where I can fully immerse myself and find solace in the artistic process. Feedback and criticism are crucial in my journey towards growth. Whether it comes from teachers, coaches, or judges, I value their insights and use them as tools to refine my craft. Embracing constructive criticism, I continually evolve, improving my performances.
Collaborating with fellow performers brings me immeasurable joy. Each collaboration allows me to learn more about my colleagues and fosters new friendships, making the artistic journey all the more fulfilling. In the world of entertainment, the stage isn't the only place for memorable moments. During one dancing performance, I encountered a wardrobe malfunction when my tutu tore at the back. Yet, undeterred, I gracefully continued, concealing the "pin stabs" with a bright smile. Managing energy and self-care during busy periods is vital for me to prevent burnouts. I prioritize proper nutrition, take breaks to relax with my iPad, and ensure I get enough rest, allowing me to maintain a healthy balance both physically and mentally. Looking ahead, I envision myself releasing my fifth song next year, marking five consecutive
