Go on a talk show? Or a movie, or something equally cool that I should know about...
Hell, I'll just admit it, I've been to the Jerry Springer show....just a simple audience member. It was like the white trash princess in me got her wish to be on tv.
What else do we got out there?

    Does it count that I got to be up close to the filming of Natrual Born Killers? It was filmed in my litle town and I have 4-5 friends in the movie and we used to sit at the DQ watching them shoot across the street. Went to the college to watch Woody Harrelson play basketball with a bunch of my friends (I don't play).

    I was in a Gerber commercial about 33 years ago? That one should count. LOL :)

    My dad worked as a mechanic for the Blues Brothers 2000 crew. He made a bunch of the State Trooper cars they crashed. I got to ride in the Bluesmobile!

    I got sprayed in the face by Oderus Urungus at point blank range while crowd surfing during the song 'I'm in love with a dead dog'. My mommy was so proud of me.

    One scene in the movie Colombiana was shot a block from my apartment (if you've seen it, the scene where she crashes the car into the gas station). The caption said California (i think, it's been a while) but it was shot right outside New Orleans.

    A girl that sat in front of me in middle school died from Meningitis. Oprah did an interview with her parents and the crew came to film the dedication ceremony where the school revealed a bench in her honor. I was on tv for 2.2 seconds laying a rose on the bench.

    I'm sure that was 'exciting' to see yourself on tv but could be awkward to explain without sounding overly excited for the reason of the vid....at least that's how I would be acting, lol.

    Haha. I wasn't excited. I didn't know that they'd filmed me. I was so embarrassed.

    I was an extra for the movie The Mighty Ducks. They filmed the final game scenes at the New Hope Ice Arena, which was right behind the house I grew up in. I got free lunch and an excused absence from school for the day.

    I used to work in radio. I was a dj on a couple different radio stations. Talked my way into it with no experience to start with. Just a good phone voice. I did ti for a couple years till the novelty wore off.

    And my husband and I make the news pretty regularly. We are very active and its gotten to be a joke, but somehow, without even meaning to, we end up in the footage for any event they show here in town. If you look close at the background, there we are. Most recently the Color Me Rad run here in Reno. How many hundred people participated in that thing and there we were, running by at the starting footage. I was interviewed on camera once about biking and when they found out I had lost 100 pounds they did a whole story on me. I was interviewed a few years before that when my idiot son committed a felony, and again, last winter when I had my grandkids at the dentist who was doing free dental check ups for little kids and the news showed up to cover it. We've been caught dancing outside at Hot August Nights, biking at a 4th of July event, standing in the crowd at parades, etc. We never try to get in the shot, we are just there. Once I found us on Youtube. I googled a friend of ours who is a featured performer at a casino. There was a video a fan had placed of him singing Moon River and we came waltzing into the frame. We waltzed in and out of view during the whole video. Looked pretty good too! We had no idea we were on there and were totally shocked when we popped in there.

    I'm going to be on American idol in January! No, I don't sing. An acquaintance made it to Hollywood and they came to film a "day in the life" kind of thing. She's a photographer by trade and does pinup shoots. Hence my profile pic!

    I have never been on tv or anything of that nature but my Claim to Fame is that I did my thing with a Dolphins Cheerleader when I was in College.

    I use to work for an arena in my area and they were visiting and she invited me over for drinks after work and the Chuckster put in work!!
