Reposted from @debbiewilsondance Congratulations @therealdebbieallen for your Governor's Award at the Emmy's yesterday! So well deserved. She has been such an inspiration to me!! I have had the honor of auditioning for Mrs Allen a few times. Many great stories but I will only share one now. It was for a show that she was taking to Atlanta. I made it through 2 callbacks. At the final callback we were in a very large studio and as I was getting my bag to leave I saw her walking from her table straight towards me. She took my hand and said "You are very special. Do not stop believing in yourself. Keep dancing. " and she walked back to her table. I didn't end up getting the job but just the fact that she said those words to me, it kept me believing and dancing! Thank you Debbie Allen!! 😁❤❤ #debbiewilsondance #debbieallen #debbieallendanceacademy https://www.instagram.com/p/CUC0rEBPMv4/?utm_medium=tumblr
