Caitlin Crosby is probably one of the most down-to-earth and nicest person I have ever met. You wont find Caitlin partying, stumbling out of clubs, flashing the cameras, etc. like most of the people who are in the "Hollywood" scene. Caitlin grew up around the people you may see on television, movies or singing so she knows a great deal of what goes on in the scene and what we see isn't really what they appear to be. Although Caitlin can be seen on episodes of "That's So Raven", "Malcolm in the Middle", etc, her passion is singing and body image issues. Caitlin's debut CD "Flawz" came out in May 2009 which has a variety of songs. Anywhere from accepting who you are as a person to the generation that were in right now. Songs such as 'Flawz' and 'Imperfect is the New Perfect' are songs based on accepting who you are and embracing your flaws whatever they may be and not being like everyone else, like the girls you see in the magazines who are skinny. So your not a size 0, who cares! Unlike singers/songwriters who are singing about going to the clubs, getting drunk, partying, Caitlin writes songs that are passionate and that mean something in the world and that have messages behind them which I love. I got the chance to see Caitlin for the first time when she was on tour with William Fitzsimmons and Slow Runner in November of 2008. She played an incredible set, full of energy! I had talked to Caitlin on Myspace a few times before then and she seemed extremely nice, even then, I wasn't really sure how she was in real life until I met her. I could not believe how nice she was! Normally you go to concerts, even small ones and the person singing will just be like "hi, how are you? It was nice meeting you. yada yada" but with Caitlin it was totally different! She's the type of person who actually listens and cares as to what your saying. She makes you feel welcomed and talks to you as if you are a friend and not a random person. That night I heard about Love Your Flawz (http://www.loveyourflawz.com/) for the first time that she and actress/singer/songwriter Brie Larson were doing. It's amazing, very inspiring! Definitely recommend checking out the music video for it! I left the concert an even bigger fan of hers. People like Caitlin don't get the recognition they deserve and should be known by everyone, I wanted to help spread the word and message about her so I decided to make her a Street Team to help promote her. As Caitlin's career continues to grow, so will her fan base. With the launch of her 'Flawz' video, Caitlin has gained a large amount of fans. She's made a huge impact in peoples lives and in helping them realize that it's okay to be different and to get past the little things or whatever they may be. She can be seen on tour right now with Matt Hires and American Idol's Jason Castro. One day she's going to change the world, she just doesn't know it yet.
