Introducing Jenna Sousa
Sometimes in life you come across a talent that takes your breath away. And Jenna Sousa is just that, an amazing talent. I first came across Jenna purely by chance when, out of curiosity I clicked on her link, while browsing through YouTube looking for a Katy Perry song. And I was completely blown away.
I couldn’t believe that such a young girl could have such a powerful voice. Instead of turning off, I clicked on a few more of her songs, and soon realised that Jenna had a voice that surpassed the usual Pop song range. In fact her voice is so special it’s a wonder that she hasn't been snapped up by a record company. Mind you, this isn’t surprising as she is only 14 years old.
Jenna Sousa lives on the East Coast of the United States. According to her mom, she started to hum along to the radio before she could talk, and by the time she was five years old she had not only entered, but won the Kent County American Idol Junior Title.
This was just the start of her obsession for singing. Jenna continued to perform at other events and family parties, and at 11 years of age posted her very first YouTube video. Since then her music video views have have gone through the roof. Over 108,492 Channel views, and an amazing 1,764,904 Uploaded views! And if that’s not enough, she also has 15,169 Subscribers, and all this since July 2009!

I Asked Jenna About Her Love Of Music And What Were Her Hopes For The Future.
Q. Jenna, what is it about singing and your Youtube video’s that you love?
A. To know that I can share my love of music with other people all around the world is amazing. I love all of my supporters, and I am so pleased that they want to help me with my dream. Each and every one of them have helped me for so long, and that means so much to me.
Q. Have you ever had any vocal training, as your voice is so powerful?
A. I sing because I love it, and have never taken any lessons. This is what I want to do with my life, just sharing such a wonderful gift that I believe comes from God.
Q. What are your hopes for the future, What do you want to happen?
A. My main ambition is to release an album in the future. When I write my songs, I put my heart and soul down on paper, so when I sing, the real feelings come through. I really want to write these songs to help other people in the future. If only one song can help them get through rough times, then it will mean the world to me. I know that music does this for me, so I hope it will help others too.
Q. What’s your main goal in life?
A. I would like to make an album, and of course, tour. But I really want to be an inspiration to other people. If I can show that you can make your dream come true, then I have succeeded in fulfilling my wish. It doesn't matter where you come from, you can achieve anything if you put your mind to it. I love music, its not only my passion, but my whole life. It makes me feel happy, and that is the most important thing of all.
Thanks Jenna.
Vocal Diversity
The one thing that I found so amazing about Jenna, is her vocal diversity. From singing a pop song by Katy Perry, to taking the lead in the Stage Musical Beauty And The Beast at only 13 years of age. But I particularly like her rendition of Taylor Swifts Sparks Fly.
Sparks Fly
Someone Like You
Jenna Sousa is a terrific singer, and I have no doubt that we will be seeing a lot more of her on TV one of these days. Her star quality shines out, and I wish her all the best. She deserves it.

Hi, Cags, she is well known on YouTube, in fact she is so popular she has over a million hits. I found her purely by chance and I have been in contact with her mom about writing this, give it a few months and a lot of people will have heard of her, she's the next justin bieber, thanks for reading, cheers nell
Nell Rose.....W O W !!! The girl is fabulous. A Diamond that will shine soon and bright enough to blind! Thanks for the videos. I adore Adele and Jenna nailed that song!
Hi, fpherj48, she is isn't she? I spent days going through her YouTube Video's trying to decide which ones to use, and I couldn't find one that was wrong! I loved them all, I would have added more, but we can't really add too many, unfortunately. Thanks for reading, cheers nell
Sousa, eh? I wonder if she's any relation to John Phillip Sousa, the March King?
Great article--I'll definitely have to look her up. Bookmarked to listen to the songs later--my internet connection has bogged down... :-(
Only 14?! Wow I'm shocked Disney hasn't given her a deal yet! Helloooo Disney, you're slacking! Hmmmm, Taylor Swift better watch out!:)
Thanks for sharing Nell! Wishing Jenna good luck!!
Hi, DzyM, I'm not sure who that is, but I don't believe so, yes I had a frozen screen earlier and had to reboot! mind you, I use a laptop and the signal isn't very good at the best of times! lol! thanks again, nell
Hi, Sunshine, she will love to hear you say that, I think you will make her day! there are loads of singers on YouTube but she is by far the best of them,thanks again, nell
She is great, she sounds more country to me than Pop though, but maybe that will mean she will hit both charts. Can't hurt.
If Jenna has Nell's seal of approval then the skies the limit. Awesome young talent that can skip right over the Idol shows. Great questions on the interview too Nell, this young lady has it together righteously!
Shared with followers as it was unpublished now has been published again.
hi, Jackie, yes she is good at country music, I loved her rendition above, sorry this took so long to answer, it was said to be duplicate! which was rather strange as it was the only one written about the singer above, but its fine now, thanks for reading, cheers nell
Hi, Alastar, Aw thanks Alastar! exactly, I watch the X factor etc and sit there moaning about the lack of talent! lol! Then along comes Jenna and I am blown away! thanks for reading, cheers nell
A star of the future no doubt! Wonderful voice, hits the notes perfectly, timing perfect, looks great. the only fault I could find is that she tends to sing a bit nasally but any decent voice trainer will teach her how to not do that. I can see a bright future for Jenna Sousa, and thanks for sharing, Nell :)
loved this nell!happy holidays!
Hi, IzzyM, thanks for reading, yes if she carries on singing and gets noticed she will certainly find a voice trainer, I do think she has great potential, thanks so much, nell
Hi, lily, thanks as always, and you have a great Christmas too, at least you have all that snow to make it Christmassy, we just get cold rain! lol!
Out of this world!! Wow - I can't believe that she is 14, either. Thank you for introducing us to Jenna Sousa, hopefully a future star. Cheers, Steph
Hi, steph, thanks for reading, she is good isn't she? I am sure she will soon be discovered, thanks!

Wonderful Nell. Beautiful voice, she will make it. Someone is going to make her a star.
Nell ~ UAB - AWESOME HUB about a new found talent. I can't believe she's just 14 years old. I was following the forum discussion until I got here.

Great hub Nell. I loved her answers to the questions in the interview. At 14 wanting to be an inspiration to others with her talent. I think that is awesome.

How nice of you to share this Lovely young Woman's Talent with all of us, Nell...And Talented she is, having just listened to her sing. I also loved "Someone Like You". Thanks for sharing this uplifting Hub.
Hi, b. Malin, thanks, she really is good isn't she? I love her rendition of Someone, and a few others too, but they all show off her amazing voice, thanks for reading, cheers nell
Gosh, Nell, that was so kind of you trying to further her career. I am hard of hearing and the sound on the laptop doesn't reach me. So I couldn't play them. I can hear music on TV and CD player. So I wait till then. lol
Have a lovely Christmas and all the very best wishes for the New Year. I am watching the news and I don't want to see any scandals on there lol. Take care.
Hi, Hello hello, thanks so much, I just thought she had such a lovely voice, I hope you have a great Christmas, and all the best to you and your family too, and have a lovely new Year! cheers nell
This girl has an amazing talent and she will be the next big thing!!!!!
Thanks for reading, Vinylrecordking, I totally agree with you.
Nell, you and her have my votes. Pretty remarkable for a young girl with no training. I would agree, she has what it takes to get somewhere with it. I like her answer, "A God given talent". I believe in that. God gives us all talents to use in life. I wish her the best, I really do. I have the same dream, but just writing lyrics so I can relate. Someone will notice her on Youtube. Nice of you to do this for her Nell. Cool article and intro. Have a Merry Christmas Nell.
Hi, lyric, I agree, I did like the way she said that too, forgot to ask before, when you write lyrics do you sell them on that site that buys lyrics to songs?
Have a Great Christmas and New Year!
Great article Ms. Nell! She is so adorable and love her voice. Thanks for sharing! :D
Hi, Daniella, thanks for reading, and I am glad you liked it, cheers nell
