Shane Pak is a contender on season three of The Glee Project.
Personality[]
Fun and loud, Shane likes to flirt and isn't afraid to speak her mind. She's very patient with people about her wheelchair, but that's about it-- if you start being stupid or stubborn about anything else, she will definitely call you on it. She might be edited as the bitch (like Aylin, Lily, or Lindsay) since she's ambitious and knows what she wants, even though she does have her sweet moments. She also really loves to dance.
History[]
Shane was born in Jackpot, Nevada, and grew up surrounded by a Latino population, introducing her to hip hop and attitude early on in life. When she was five, she started taking ballroom lessons, and by seven was competing nationally. Her parents moved her and her younger sister to Henderson when she was eleven so she could train in the studios of Las Vegas, and she also took voice and acting lessons so she could be the ultimate triple-threat. By fifteen, she was in a top dance studio and had some hip hop back-up dancing experience on her resume. However, three weeks before her sixteenth birthday, she suffered an arteriovenous malformation, which ruptured her spinal cord and rendered her paralyzed from the waist down. Her parents pulled her out of school for the rest of her sophomore and all of her junior year of high school, home-schooled her as she went through rigorous physical therapy and counseling. She got through the worst of her grief through singing, and decided to pursue it as a career. Shane made it back to high school to graduate with her class, and went into a musical arts program at UCLA, also being introduced to wheelchair dancing in an Adaptive Sports Camp in San Diego. She realized she wanted to keep dancing more than anything, and pursued it fearlessly. She had a bit part in "Musical Chairs", a movie about wheelchair-bound ballroom dancers, and from there realized she was still who she was before. When she saw Ali on the Glee Project, she realized they were trying to cast a blonde in her spot as the alpha wheelie bitch, and set out to audition to take her rightful place on Glee
