It’s (starring in a concert) now or never, take it or leave it.”</div> <div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #555555; font-family: arial; font-size: 12px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> Alex could only be thankful for all the opportunities given her and will give her best all the way.
