I'm a natural for the stage. Bring it on! I love to have an audience to share my thoughts with. The larger the crowd the better   ;D

My whole career is getting up and speaking.  I always have "butterflies' in my stomach beforehand.  I've never gotten to where it's "blase'".  I always try to remember that I'm just the "vessel" to deliver the message.  The Lord has never left me out there alone without His anointing. It's Him speaking and not me.

There are singers in our church that have told me they close their eyes and sing straight to God.  Like they are giving Him a private concert, so they are not distracted by the people.

Anytime you must get up in front of a bunch of people to speak or sing, at least be prepared what you are going to say or sing.  I can't stand all these professional singers who get up to sing the National Anthem and don't know the words?

I hate presentations, I hate piano recitals and I hate singing in front of people. I get so nervous!

I used to have terrible stage fright,  and then i recently took a speech class and now i feel a lot more confident when speaking in front of large audience.  i think the best way to over come it is to do it.

I totally agree.  You must be speaking of our national anthem that was sung at the Super Bowl.  Being prepared is a must.  I also could not stand the style/rendition/showcasing of the song either - she butchered our beautiful and heartfelt anthem.

 I am not sure if I have stage freight, but I imagine if I was put up on stage I would be pretty frightened! lol

Yeah, I definitely get stage fright.
For me it's with singing.
I have a hard time singing even in front of my friends, let alone random strangers.
