How to sing in front of other people without getting nervous?

about 2 months ago i was in the play %26quot;Oliver Twist%26quot; at my school. i played the role of Nancy in the play. when i sang in front of a whole audience of people i wasn't as nervous as i am just singing in front of one or two people i know. i don't know why but i seem to be more nervous singing in front of one or two friends. i think its because i'm scared that they will judge me on my singing or something. does anyone know how to get nervousness away from singing.How to sing in front of other people without getting nervous?My cousin sings in a band, and she swears that she use to imagine that all of the people in front of her were standing in their underwear. She said it made her laugh, and that it helped her relax. I can't say that's good advice, but there ya go. :-)How to sing in front of other people without getting nervous?Your doctor can give you these things called Beta Blockers. They're harmless pills that when you take them, it blocks your adrenaline level from raising, stopping your heart from pounding really hard, hands shaking, voice quivering, etc. Musicians and the like take them all the time.

A better way though would be to just perform in front of people all the time. I know that sounds stupid, but if you sing in front of people you're comfortable with a lot, gradually you'll start to sing in front of bigger and stranger crowds, until you're confident and your nervousness is down to a healthy level. Just gotta get out there and do it. Break a leg.
