    After Lee watched the video, he responded, “Done!” and a few weeks later, Lawrence got a one on one audition.

    He reportedly picked Sylvester’s “You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)” for his audition, and he clearly slayed it, as it’s the same song Washington sang during the episode…

    Having trained in performing arts, Miss Lawrence says he wants to revisit his original dream of being a singer while also maintaining his brand in the beauty industry.
