Would you like to be on TV??

Would you ever sign up for BB/ Xfactor/ Pop Idol etc??

I just had a look at what programmes I could apply for on the tv and have decided that I don't really have the characteristics they look for on these programmes... i.e. insanely beautiful, insanely talented and/or just insane.

But I have applied for the gap year one on channel 4 anyway, because I have nothing to lose.

Just wondering whether you would apply/ have applied for any?

PS. fyi I have linked the 'be on tv' pages so click:
here if you're interested in BBC,
here if you're interested in ITV and
here if you're interested in channel 4.

Haha bless Katie so did I.

I would never apply because to any of those those types of shows because I don't like the idea of being seen by millions plus I don't have a shred or talent and I would rather not humiliate myself!!



You're entirely bonkers. But I'll tell you a secret. All the best people are.

I have changed the title now :)

Ordinarily, I would not apply for these shows. However, I am bored and desperate. I don't care if I'm humiliated. I need something to do!

Plus I KNOW I won't get in anyway, I'm not pretty or bubbly or loud and crazy so... y'know.

I was in the channel 4 doc about self harm/RYL. I was only in it for like, ten seconds, but I kind of wish I hadn't now because I'm forever linked to self harm.

And I'm not talented enough to go on X factor =] Could go on for a laugh I suppose.



Isn’t it funny how day by day nothing changes but when you look back, everything is different…

These girls i went to school with were on the x factor a couple of years ago, and Simon Cowell said they looked lik the before, during and after of weight watchers, and everyone still takes the piss out of them, so no.. the shame would live withyou forever!

However, if i was really really talented,i might!

I don't think I would, certainly not a talent show thing.
Mind you, that Celebrity Scissor Hands thing on BBC 1 sounds fun!

Maybe if I was bored enough, I'd go on a game show (like The Price is Right or Jeopardy or something) cause you only have to be on there for like a day, and you can win money, haha. But I wouldn't sign up for a reality show, I'm not interesting enough to want to watch for more than one episode :D

I've never wanted to be famous but I'm been Big Brother obsessed this year and that looks like it could be quite fun to be on. Don't think I'd cope being stuck in there all that time though. And I was watching some programme about the auditions and thought that looked fun and wanted to go haha.

I got excited then, FAME, I wanna live forever...*Sings*

But no, fame is definitely something I'd never want. Unless it was for being an excellent writer or something.

I did consider going on x factor once, but then I sobered up.

I think the fame that comes from these shows is somewhat fake, you're generally known for being a complete ********. I would rather achieve fame through my tallents and skills and be respected for what I do.

...Really really would like that though.

Dicky!

It'd be cool to do deal or no deal. I just want to hear what the banker sounds like!
