your 15 minutes of fame?

Original post by jgl

What was yours????

mine is stinky but it'sthe best i've got.. but i know you girls must have some GOOD ones! So please share!!!


here's mine:

My dad always listed to PLJ and so in middle school i did too. PLJ always has these stupid contests. (i think it was the gong show or something, if you had a talent they wanted you to call) so we called up and I played my violin on the radio. Cheesy, but in 7th grade i thought it was the coolest thing i won tickets to the circus

maybe in the future ill have another 15 min of fame!!!

I was called from a promotions company to do a one day thing for 100 bucks for Gillette in times square, figured id be handing out razors? or coupons or something.....

NO.

I was hired to lose a rigged 'leg judging' contest sponsored by Gillette judged by Hillary and Haley Duff, and J-Lo's ex- Chris Judd.... I am short, wore a crappy long skirt and tank (didnt shave that day) and had to walk a cat walk against leggy models.... that was broadcast live on good morning america as well as all the big screens in times square.... so out of place and the most humiliating walk of my life.... not fame, but the closest to it..... Judges said i was 'cute'.

I won a car at Shea stadium..Filled out a form at a met/yankee game and 2 months later got a call that Iwas one of3 finalists. We chose a key down on the field, my key started the car and I won...that was pretty cool it was on tv too.

No all they said was a gillette promotion 4 hrs in times square at a studio and who to meet with... They probably figured if they told people no one would actually follow through.... I guess i could have walked out, but really needed the hundred bucks at the time.... lol

My 15 minutes was being in Modern Brides June/ July issue, thatis out now. Page 280, it's terrible that I know the page but I was just so excited when it first ran that I couldn't help but remember every detail. They did a series on wedding confessions and mine was how I made the mistake of not choosing my friend as maid of honor. It was really fun we did the photo shoot in April, along with a couple of other girls. They asked me what I wanted for lunch and they had a hair and makeup person on set. I felt like a star for a day.

this is totally BETTER NOT be my 15 minutes of fame AT ALL

but i emailed z100 and remember at night they used to have that annoying 'computer' voice? well i wrote something about going to an all girl school and looking for some cute boys . . .

well they said my name but then the computer voice guy TOTALLY flipped it around saying that i was looking for love AT my all girl school . . um no - it was embarassing bc everyone used to listen!
