12-Year Old Apollo Child Star of Tomorrow  Quintuple Threat: Singer, Pianist, Dancer, Model, Actress Although
only 12 years of age, Tyler Madison Holloway already has a list of credits to her name of a seasoned performer and musician
three times her age. Increasingly referred to as the rising “Jazz Princess” in New York area Jazz circles, Tyler
received a standing ovation from the notoriously tough Apollo Theater audience for her rendition of “Almost Like
Being in Love” on April 14, 2010 where she was selected as an Apollo Child Star of Tomorrow. According
to Apollo Amateur Night Producer Marion J. Caffey, “not only is Tyler following in the famous footsteps of Jazz
Greats Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughn, and Billie Holiday, (who all got their start at the World Famous Apollo) but Tyler
made her own history tonight as the youngest Jazz Act to ever "play" the Apollo---that is, since Ella Fitzgerald
shined on the Apollo Stage in her career debut at age 17! In April 2010 Tyler
was honored with the prestigious “Youth in Action” Award by the International Women in Jazz (IWJ) Festival Committee
in New York City and the That's Entertainment National Competition's “Billie Holiday” Award. Most
recently, Tyler won the 2011 Bill Robinson Most Promising Vocalist Awards Competition at Jazz 966 in NYC. A true quintuple
threat, Tyler has extensive training in ballet, tap, jazz, hip-hop, and modern dance. In 2009, Tyler was crowned Jr.
“Dancer of the Year” by the Hollywood Vibe Judges Panel of Hollywood Insiders. The honor won her the opportunity
to perform and be showcased at Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida. In February 2011, Tyler competed at the Dance USA
Competition where her Platinum, Top 5 Score earned her the honor of selection as a member of the USA National
Dance Team set to compete in Madrid in July 2012. An all-around performer, Tyler is also a graduate of ACT's invitation-only
National Performance Academy where she received on-camera television and film acting training. Tyler has also received
formal training in classical and jazz piano since the age of 9. We proudly present her to you! CLICK
