Well i havn't had my 15 mins of fame yet, and i don't know anyone who has.
But hopefully when mine comes round, it will be more than 15 mins (hopefully the rest of my life).

I haven't, but my father played proffesionally for the football team "The Buffalo Bills" for a number of years.

Umm... in Unreal Championship I was 86th in the world in the bombing run game... once.

I was "Member of the Week" over at G4tv.com... they featured my art in the news letter. Yay!

I'm so terribly pathetic... :|

I got my email read out on a Shoping Network show because a guy on it was a wrestling fan. That was about 5 years ago now.

My life isn't very good is it?

I was on a childrens show when I was 5. For about 5 minutes. We made buildings out of boxes.

Probably the main one is a book review I was asked to do for a show on ABC TV here in Australia. It was about music books and I was asked to do a review on a Metallica book about 6 years ago.

Another time I was in the audience for a TV show and they chose someone from the audience to let the hosts and guests through a gate that was part of the set. I was chosen to do this.

I've also been on TV lots of times during Football telecasts over the past 10 years, as I used to have a banner that I would hold up when my team scored a goal, and it would get shown on TV most weeks. I've also been on football news stories (in close up shots of the crowd) and had my photo in a football newspaper and 2 editions of the match day programme.

Other than that, I have been an Oddworld FOM, but I don't know if that really counts.

My dad does radio work, so when i was little i was in lots of radio adverts:D

Mojo 03-02-2003 07:24 AM

Well, I got in the newspaper quite a few times. Plus, I have preformed in a band, which only has 2 songs, but there wil be more...

Um.....I have been in the paper once, a few years back... There was a group of us that had passed a few keyboard exams, and we were all photographed with our keyboard teacher. The problem was that I was about 8 and I look a total idiot and the fact that the paper had got our names mixed up..
Oh yeah....I did a few drawings for my pal for her website, they're really rubbish and all I got out of it was my name in tiny writing at the bottom of the page....so that's not really fame.
Oh, my name is also on a TombRaider website... It's not much, but it's a start.

I can't remember all the times. My first was taken on the school bus, I don't know what it was about but I was at the front!
Another was for winning the school speech competition, but I had to have all my competitors in there with me. :fuzmad:
I can't think of the others at the moment but I have definately had a few more.
