Question

Read the paragraph.

Alyssa played keyboards, electric guitar, and bass. She could belt out songs so loudly that for hours afterward you could still feel the power of her voice. And as she sang, she would dance, occasionally stopping to bang out a few notes on the keyboard or rip through a solo on guitar, while her band kept the beat in the background. We had seen all of her shows at the local clubs, and if we had owned a car, we would have traveled to see her in other cities, too. We knew that certain people said that Alyssa wouldn’t amount to much.

Which would be the best final sentence of this paragraph?

However, we felt that Alyssa was a highly accomplished performer.
But we thought Alyssa was by far the best singer and dancer in town.
To some, she may have been just an act, but to us, Alyssa was a rock star.
Without a doubt, Alyssa was a well-rounded musician with talent.

Answer 1

"To some, she may have been just an act, but to us, Alyssa was a rock star."

This sentence best counters the critics mentioned, matches the group's voice ("we"), and captures both her musical skill and stage presence.
