Have you been on TV?

[Uabassoon]

I was reading that 1 in every 4 people has been on television. So, that means a lot of people on this board have been in tv before. Who here has been on tv, and what where you doing?

I was on tv when I was in high school with my goat Grendel. I was at a livestock show and they were trying to interview a cute kid with his goat, but he was having problems answering the questions so they saw me and asked if I wanted to be on the news. So Gendel and I had a few seconds of fame.

Let's see.......I've been on the local news quite a bit. The people would come to school. My gymnastics team was on TV once I think. We've been in the paper alot, though. I think that's it, I'll have to think

we have been on the local news a few times, with charity dog walks and stuff for our dog club

nothing too major though, my brother is on a advert at the moment for the gym he goes to lol (lifting weights)

oh and im trying to get my dog noticed and get her into some TV work, but no-one is interested in the "mutt dogs"

I was on the news. My school bus in high school got into an accident on a Friday AND the following Monday after that!! So after the second accident, we were taken off on stretchers (though, we were relatively fine), they were just being cautious (b/c the Friday accident, a girl passed out and hit her head) (we werent removed with stretchers that day). So i was on the news in a stretcher and also after i left the hospital, i was interviewed by Action News (ch 6 in NJ)...about the accident.

So....thats about it............not too exciting!!

Now that I think of it, I have been on TV more than once!

I was on TV for a few moments 10+ years ago when they were doing a story on the place where I worked, and I was on TV in Beijing, China walking across a stage and saying "Thank You" to the gentleman presenting the place where I work with gifts and thanks - I didn't see that one, though!

I was on the local news when I was 10 years old. There was a bunch of police cars and news vans down the street from where I lived, so being the curious child that I was I went down there w/ my sisters to find out what was going on. Turns out that a mother had killed her children because she heard voices in her head that told her to. Anyways, I happened to be standing at a fence that was in the line of sight for the camera and had my 5 seconds of fame Not a good reason to be on TV.

I forgot that I was also on tv the first time I went to Trinidad. On the second day of carnival all the floats go through this stage and it is all filmed and aired live on tv. So I was following a steel band and the next thing i know we are on a stage and people look at me and go "you have to dance we are on television" So, I was on tv trying to dance.

LOL oh yeah and I forgot to add that on top of being a bad dancer I was dressed in a sailor costume (it's a traditional carnival costume down there). So I was on tv in Trinidad as a bad dancing american sailor! Thankfully I was in a foreign country and no one I know got to see it!

I was on TV for the local Harry Potter event. They interviewed me and my friends, but my interview didn't make the final edit....although there were shots of me and my friends in character.

I have been on topdogs and one the news you could see me, lying on the grass watching an agility match!

I was on TV when my elementary school did a tolerance week celebration. They got part of my presentation on it, and a close-up of me.

I don't think I ever have been. Last summer a woman from Channel 6 wanted to interview me about all of the things that were going on in the Catholic church (I was coming out of the Post Office, I have no idea why they were there), but I declined.

My husband has done commercials for Honda though, but they're local commercials.

[slleipnir]

I had to annouce something for our news channel..I hated it..my friend made me..gr

[GoldenRetrLuver]

I was in the paper a few times for my English class. My cousins do commercials and movies, so you might see them a couple times....

I haven't, but my sister got interviewed for the local news. lol Her take didn't make the final cut. My two friends were extras in a movie though. It's played only in Montreal but they might have shown it elsewhere in Canada. It's called "Mambo Italiano" I hear it'll be hitting the USA and a few other countries soon so keep an eye out for it

Anyone remember the tv show Popeye and Pals? It might have been just a local show. Basically it was a kids show where they'd have an audience of about 40 kids usually from different scouting troops. They'd have music, some games, and show Popeye cartoons. Used to come on Saturdays mornings here. When I was 9, my friend Julie and I were part of the audience. Every kid in the audience gets interviewed for their name and school. I remember going to school after it aired and having all the kids ask me how I got on the show. Mom pulled a few strings

My mother has been on the news quite a few times. She used to work as a nurse on the pediatric oncology unit at Children's Hospital. Whenever one of the kids made the news or some celebrity came to visit the kids, you could usually catch a glimpse of her.
