Ever so often, life has a way of getting forcing people to put their dreams on hold. The longer people wait to achieve said dreams, the more frivolous they seem to become. For any of the contestants on 'Alter Ego', pursuing a singing career didn't seem entirely possible due to various setbacks. And a few of them even admitted that the more they pushed their dream aside, the more impossible it seemed to achieve.

However, the show helps these immensely talented performers overcome these issues and show the world who they truly are, without worrying about their looks, age, and other factors. With Alanis Morissette, Nick Lachey, Grimes and will.i.am as the judges, contestants are expected to showcase their singing voices and creativity through their 'Alter Ego', by creating a persona that is the embodiment of who they are.

For 39-year-old stay-at-home mom Danielle Cetani, becoming a singer certainly felt like a pipe dream.

However, when she expressed these thoughts to her husband, he was vehemently against it, pushing her to pursue her dreams. With her husband's support, Cetani now wanted to push herself and be who she wanted to be. She also hoped to inspire other moms to go out and seize opportunities, reminding them that it is never too late to do so. Cetani performed 'Hit Me with Your Best Shot' by Pat Benatar.
