Yes, I do. I have performed in front of an audience on multiple occasions. I have always wondered why but for some reason, my stuttering doesn't come in the way of my singing. I never stutter while si...

My theory (based on nothing but my own experiences) is that when you're acting and "in character", you're using a different part of your brain than for just ordinary everyday speech. So fluency can b...

I dont think producer and staff would have much patience for her and other stuttering because every minute on set cost big money so it is not so easy to do a retake. Also she performed in front of liv...
