101 Ways to get your 15 Minutes of Fame
Whether it's a single mom having octupulets, A Latin singer shaking his "Bon Bon", or a former White House intern having "inappropriate relations" with our President, there are a million & 1 ways people mingle their way into the public eye for their 15 minutes of fame....What would you do...?
GIVE FEEDBACK
Hmm...I'd be myself. For those 15 minutes of fame, I wouldn't do anything, just being myself as always. Nothing special about it. If you are nobody and life hates you so much, you just want to make a difference. But then, your life changes like a hurricane and you might lose yourself in the created chaos. So, this fame thing cuts both ways..it can make you famous and it can make you miserable at the same time.
I wouldn't like to be famous, but I'd like to earn some extra legal cash, so I could live a decent life. I don't need a life of a super star when paparazzi are following you in the bathroom. That's disturbing. Seriously.

For my 15min of fame I'd do nothing. I honestly like privacy. Money on the other hand... pretty much anything legal utside of porn, manipulation, and being a judge.
1) Only dress in genuine victorian clothes. At all times.
2) Graffiti 'Gordon looks like a turkey' on the Houses of Parliament.
3) Campaign for jousting to be an olympic sport.

well if i was famous and wanted publicity i would'nt go around acting in sexsaul movies or video clips. I'd just be my self and if u dont respect urself how do you expect other to respect you.
the heck with what other say be urself and do the right things and you'll be on your way to fame.

1) find a celebrities house and sit outside on the sidewalk until they themselves or the paparazzi notice u
2) create an obscure way to solve some national problem then put it on posters and banners and march it all over a large city
3) start a morning radio show that makes fun of politics

In Canada we don't have a lot of reality shows with the exception of the game show hosted by canadian Howie Mandel or the next top model, canada.....If we had real world or survivor or even big brother would be a great way for fame...Could always do a porn video and become famous like Paris Hilton.
Well I guess I am left to book writing, hopefully I will do a good book to hit the best seller's list.
Come on canada do some reality tv,,,,

1) Reality shows are the easiest way to get famous nowadays. How many Real World seasons has there been again?
2) Break some obscure Guinness World Record like 'Most marshmallows stuffed in a human mouth at once'
3) Stalk a legitimately famous person.. become their biggest fan
4) Become the first person to memorize every line in the entire Harry Potter movie franchise.. and use one liners in every day speech, eventually annoying people so much they boycott Harry Potter and the gang forever
5) Get plastic surgery for no reason.. on your belly button (because it isn't quite symmetrical enough)
6) Protest the inaccurate and exploitative portrayal of vampires in Twilight, True Blood.. and all those other vampire shows. Insist vampire are really out there, you know because... you are one.
7) Claim to be the true writer of Da Vinci Code and accuse Dan Brown of stealing your ideas.

For my 15 minutes of fame, I would:
1.) Rescue someone from anything
2.) Sing all night a Karaoke Bar, and take on any challengers..For if this were real, I would be the best on stage.
3.) Stand in the middle of a busy intersection, while I send text messages on my phone.
4.) Stand in front of the Capital and ask , "Where's the Capital?"
5.) Race down to the Paramount Theater with my little entourage of people from nowhere, with their cameras on me, where the red carpet in Austin lays, camera lights flashing; all on eyes on me. When the "Stars and the Media"arrive to cover the day/night's event, in my 15 minutes of fame, I would announce my stardom. For I am the queen of Fame wannabe's.

This is a really great topic for a how-to book. We live in such a celebrity-obsessed world and I think everyone is looking for that accident or opportunity that is going to catapult them into the limelight. You should do a chapter on the most famous YouTube stars, like the Star War's light saber kid and the Asian Backstreet Boys.
other ideas
1. streak a sport's arena...okay that's more like 2 minutes of fame on your local news.
2. become famous Perez Hilton style by talking smack about people who became famous for a real reason.
3. give birth to a child art prodigy who creates the next Pollack.
4. Try your hardest to get on The Real World and then do five seasons of Real World/Road Rules after.
5. Go to Bollywood--less talent required.

Good luck to you all.
Thanks for the invitation. I don't know if I'll have the time to contribute, but I'll do my best.
Thank you for letting me in on this. I'll probably add a few little numbers if it's okay by you!
Thanks for the invite--I'm thinking and will definately be back to post my own desparate plea for fame-dom :P
Interesting... you know, me and my friends are currently working on making our own movie for one of our favorite books, the Uglies series by Scott Westerfeld. I've always thought that it would be cool if we became famous from the movie! You never know. The first episode of the movie isn't out yet, though. I'll get back to you when it does to tell you if we became famous or what. Lol! Anyways, yeah.
Thanks for the invite JG. Will try to get time to throw something together soon. Good luck with the project...sounds like fun. T.
