About this episode

Kelsie Watts discusses her journey to Broadway, her experiences on The Voice, and the influence of social media on artists.

People may assume that, as a viral recording artist, Kelsie Watts had her Broadway debut in Six handed to her. But nothing could be further from the truth. This episode, the SentMen chat with Kelsie about her long audition process for Six, her time on The Voice (#teamkelly) and how she continues to grow as an artist and actress while making her Broadway debut. Not to mention – would she ever undertake one of the ladies in Wicked? Plus, the boys get Sentimental about Hugh Jackman’s residency at Radio City, Netflix’s Building the Band and the effect of social media on pop artists’ careers. Learn more about your ad choices.
