Acting Quote by China Anne McClain
“One of my dad's friends from the music industry came over to our house one time and heard me sing, and he said, 'She should audition for this role I have!' So I did! It was a movie called 'The Gospel,' which I did when I was five. That was when I was like, 'I want to do this acting thing!'”

![“With acting, it [auditioning] is very frustrating. I'm not very good at auditions. Sometimes I audition for a role and I'm like, I'd be really funny in that role, but I'm not good at auditions so I guess I'm not getting that role. It's a very frustrating job.” quote by Jim Jefferies](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/e92/jim-jefferies-8092_acting_with-acting-it-auditioning-is-very-frust_2628940.jpg)
