IMTA Alum Tiffany Thornton on Disney's Sing It!

IMTA alum Tiffany Thornton hosts the "Sing It Pro" Features on the just-released Disney's Sing It Pop Hits for Wii, PS2 and PS3! She teaches proper breathing and pitch techniques and how to riff and harmonize in the expanded "Sing It Pro" mode.

Here's an excerpt from an interview about the game:
On her fave songs on Disney Sing It: Pop Hits game: “One of my best friends is Demi Lovato, so obviously hers are some of my favorites. It’s really cool because there’s a lot of diversity in the tracks. You’ve got Coldplay, OneRepublic, Jesse McCartney, Taylor Swift, Colbie Caillat and then of course theres The Jonas Brothers, Hannah Montana songs, Demi, and Miley songs. It’s cool because there’s a range. It’s not like you’re getting this game full of Disney songs or full of songs that you don’t know. There are a lot of songs on there that I listen to myself and I wouldn’t consider myself a ‘young kid.’ I love all of those groups and singers.”

You can read the full interview on JustJaredJr.

Tiffany showed she was a triple threat when she competed at IMTA, demonstrating her talent in all areas: she can act, dance and sing! Most of you know Tiffany as Tawni Hart on the hit show Sonny with a Chance airing now on the Disney channel! She recorded the theme song Let It Go for the Disney movie Hatching Pete with Mitchel Musso. She also starred in the Disney Channel original movie Hatching Pete!
