Alan J Silva Prediction: How Far Will He Go?

Alan has a chance to go far because he is incredibly skilled. However, he has to ensure that the audience roots for him and connects with him beyond the performances. The edge he had going in, is now gone because viewers know how good he is at what he does. However, Alan can take a page out of his brother’s book. Deadly Games always found ways to be creative with what they were doing and Alan has to try the same if he wishes to aim for the grand prize. We will leave you with a picture of Alan performing his art.
