Have you ever been on TV?

I saw this on another board and thought it would be fun.

I was on a show called Grunches and Grins when I was in first grade and I've been on the news a couple of times, but just in the background.

Re: Have you ever been on TV?

  • Oh I remember Grunches and Grins!  I forgot all about that show.

    I have been on the news as well.  When I was in nursing school we had clinicals at Cooper Green and Fox 6 came and did a story on student nurses.  I didn't talk but I was on the screen a few times.

    Siggy coming soon....
  • i was in the background of the news when i was in H.S. when they did a piece on the water being off and classes cancelled..lol

    My first semester at auburn i was having lunch with a friend when they were reporting inside Foy about the investigation of a professor

    and lastly hubs and i made it onto ABC's pregame show when game day was here for the AU/LSU game

  • I used to do the "Pet of the Week" spot on the local news...does that count?

  • I was in a local political ad when I was in high school.  And when I was drum major in high school, I was on TV during the Blue Grey game.
  • I was on a local station promoting a philanthropy project for my sorority when I was in college
  • i have been on local dothan tv a few times for various things.... and i was interviewied by fox 6 last christmas
  • I have..i've been shown in news stories about plays I was in when I was younger (I talked about one of the plays once-Wizard of Oz). I've sang and they've shown the choirs I was in. I played sports and high school and college and was on tv for that...I think that's it.

  • I was on Good Morning America!! Yeahhhh!! LMAO. You know the crowd that gathers in the studio behind the weather man? Oh yeah, it was me... LOL. We have it on video and it is freaking hilarious!!!
  • Grunches and Grins- OMG is that the show that was on APT?  If so, I used to always want to be on it!!  I wrote them a letter too.  :)

     I was on the Nickelodeon gameshow "guts" and I was a human trashcan for the game I was in.  nice.

    I have been on the news a couple of times and I was in a music video for a local band.  lol  Oh, and I was all over the Today Show crowd for New Year's 1997 with my big sign!  Al Roker and Katie Couric even talked to me!  :)

    Man, I'm pretty famous.  lol

     

  • not that I can recall but my mom has been and DH is ALL the time - he TiVo's all the games and track meets that are on TV and watches it just to see if he made it on TV.  Cracks me up.  When Brandon Cox was our QB and B had to "follow" him to get him to reporters he was on TV a lot.

    Remember bloggers bashing someone who interupted the team prayer after a game (supposedly) to get Cox?!?!  Yep, that was Brad and he said he NEVER interupted the prayer (he said what good Christian guy would!!?!!?!?) but that as they went to pray, he put his hand on Cox's shoulder so he'd know he was there and they ran to the reporters right after the prayer was over.  It was kinda funny how these bloggers took it out of context.

    but me, not on TV.  My mom has been on for various reasons - FSU, b/c of her job being a marriage and family therapist, etc.

  • I danced across the screen when the local news did a story on Ann's hip-hop class.

    I'm most famous (lol) for being on the front page of the newspaper when I was in highschool.  Above the fold and everything.  It was used for an article for Panoply where Grissom Dance had performed.  The picture was me applying makeup.

  • I have been on local stuff a few times...nothing big.

    I was in the crowd on Good Morning America in the studio and I was on TRL right behind the VJs so I was on the show (in the background and they turned to talk to me at one point) the whole time--by myself b/c my other friends backed out--yeah--I am cool....haha!

  • I was on Cousin Cliff when I was young!  And I've been in some pep bands that news stations were reporting for something or other, but usually only in the background.

    Girl... I am so jealous... I LOVED Guts when I was a kid. They show the reruns on some Nick channel these days... Scott and I watch it sometime. I wonder if I ever saw your episode? LOL

    Yes!  I wrote Tyro a letter and got on the show.  I think I still have the tape. lol

  • I was on the Ann Varnum show in Dothan when I was younger...woo-woo!!! Haha...that lady was and still is quite a character...I have been on the news a few times in my professional career since I am a PR person. Most of the spots have been about either fundraising events or smoking ordinances...my work is glamorous...
  • I almost forgot!  One day, my friends and I skipped the pep rally and went to the Jones Valley shopping center.  While we were approaching Barnes and Noble we noticed a camera crew approaching.  It was right around Halloween time and we were asked what our favorite scary movie was.  All I had really seen at that point was The Sixth Sense.  It was funny that when we were supposed to be at school, we ended up on the news.
  • I have been on some local news stuff when i was in the band in high school and college.  But DH did a couple of commercials for Nickelodean when he was young.  He even met Clarissa :)

    btw, Emmie, i'm so jealous you were on guts!

    I was on the Ann Varnum show, too!  My Mom owned a baby clothing store back in the day, and Ann featured the store on her show.  I was also in several ads and commercials for the store...thanks Mom!  LOL

    I've been on the news several times...especially in high school in my cheerleading days.  They'd show us cheering every now and then.

    I was on the front page of the paper once "above the fold" and everything...LOL...after I was electrocuted.  Pretty scary stuff!!!!  It was pretty major.

  • I've only been in the background on local TV news stories.. usually while I'm covering something for the newspaper. I usually try to stand in the back or get out of the way of the cameras though!

     Someone told me a few weeks ago WVUA in Tuscaloosa was doing a story on Deborah Paseur, who ran for the state supreme court. Apparently they ran a long shot of me chatting with Paseur, which I thought was kind of a bad choice of footage. I mean, I am media too, but I talked to her afterward because she used to live across the street from my parents and I went to high school with her daughter! It seems like it would have been a better shot to actually show her doing something than just talking to another reporter from another news organization. oh well.

  • when I was like 5 years old I was on this silly morning cartoon show called "Rambling Rod".  and they had a silly smile contest.  but my mom and I had argued that morning (yes, I was 5 and arguing with my mom) and so I was in a bad mood and I didn't smile.  I would have SOOO won the smile contest too because I was missing my two front teeth!
