Hey everybody! I'm totally going to be on tv! Set your vcr's!
Embarrassing things that I have done on television:
- Flipped pancakes with Marty Monster on the Early Bird Show.
- Sung 'Care for Kids' wearing a hot pink Snoopy t-shirt on Young Talent Time .
- Had awkward bit of snot pointed out by focus puller I was desperately in love with on the Henderson Kids. I was only eight, but it still stung.
- Lost a hair-pulling bitch-fight with someone half my height on Neighbours.
- Nadded myself in an Easter Parade trying to help someone in a Goofy costume into a horse and carriage.
- Jumped up out of a pile of red and white balloons wearing only my knickers in a Dallas Crane video.
- Stood in the Big Brother live eviction show audience on drugs holding a sign that said 'HELP ME'.
But still. You poor chicken.
Thanks to the very clever Panopticist for the link.
918 days til the next election.

Killer. I totally did not see that coming - I thought you were going to get a mention or something.
Where are all the stills? Do you still have all this on VHS? I am talking in particular about the Dallas Crane video. Flipping pancakes with Marty the Monster: awesome. Just when I thought I couldn't love you more. These Reasons I am Supposed to Hate You are backfiring in spectacular fashion.

Oh my God, Oh, my Goddy God.
"You're Italian ... You like spaghetti!"
"Who says?"
Christmases... all of them... coming at once... must... save money...
That is all.
i can't get the link up.
i fell so left out and not part of the group.
*remembers high school*
*remembers laughing at those that weren't part of the group back then*
*giggles*
That has made my day – the whole office loves it!
I wanna see you on the telly...and not in a mate's way.
*barfs*
Is that why you aren't meant to drink milk before a performance?
OH. MY. GOD!! Way to freak me out pre-filming embarrassing nerdy spot on TV! That poor guy! You can just see him thinking, "I am going to be celibate for the next five years, and not of my own free will".
Oh Jesus.
And I thought my boob-baring turn on the 'Today' show was bad.
WHAT "boob-baring turn on the Today show"?!!

nads, i can't see it either.
what's going on? what's so cool? stop pointing and laughing at me!
*goes to make friends with girl in the corner with the large knockers*
It was in early 2003... Tuppence is invited on the show to give her opinions as a 'politically active' left-leaning youth (the fact she's the token girl doesn't hurt either).
After much discussion with flatmate over what to wear, Tuppence selects the black pin-striped button-down shirt. It says 'professional', it says 'integrity', it says 'take me seriously'. A little small, but that's OK, right?
Tuppence goes on the show, airily dissertating on everything from the war in Iraq to JWH's domestic
policies. She also manages NOT to bitchslap the Young Lib on the show with her. (For more information on said Young Lib, go here and and here. And tell me that your fingers wouldn't have twitched. Policy Adviser to Brendan Nelson. Nice one, Dave.)
It is only when she gets home and sees her flatmate's face that she realises that something is wrong.
Yes, a button had popped, clearly showing my left breast to a national audience.
WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME, STEVE LEIBMANN???
(I find talking about it in the third person makes it less embarrassing.)
There's another version here.
Tuppence, I'm going to start making indecent proposals to you soon. Consider this your first warning.
i saw it! i saw it!
ONE OF US! ONE OF US!
I can't see it either (#$%@&*! dial-up in un-broadbandable new suburb).
I was, however, on Romper Room; and am clearly visible in The Angels' video clip for 'Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again' (still getting frequent airplay on Rage), so can I get to sit in the corner with all the popular kids?
I exposed myself on TV once. Apparently though, if it's deliberate it's actually a felony and not a humourous anecdote. Damn legal stupidity!
WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME, STEVE LEIBMANN???
. . because he was watching himself on a monitor and did not even see your buttons?. I loathe him with a passion. Frontline was parody of steve as well as of Ray.
OK, so I thought about my last comment, and realised why I probably never made it into the popular corner much.
Making any reference to oneself and The Angels on a site where the average poster/reader went beyond Year 9 at High School is probably not the coolest thing to do.
If I noted that I was in said bogan rock group film-clip by quirk of fate rather than rock-chick intention, would that give me more cred?
BTW - I have got big boobs too.
P.S. In case anyone might be wondering why I'm still at my computer at 2.45am - its called Procrastination by the Self Employed.
My one minute of fame was in 1989 when I was a passenger on a helicopter that suffered an engine failure over the Melbourne CBD. We auto-rotated (glided) into Alexander Gardens and made the 6 PM news and papers the next day!
well, hello little miss surprise-a-minute! that's quite a hefty amount of Stories By The Pub pile you've got there!
nice video, surely a promo stunt tho
I get that it's a promo stunt - but I don't get how he could have thrown up on command. How does one do that?
