Well, I watch a LOT of shows like: America's next top model, Australian idol and So You Think You Can Dance. I was just thinking, do you think its better to get famous through a TV show like that or not?
Well getting famous on your own is good, but if you cant. Then through those shows you can so its a good thing.
Well it is a good way to get known, but only one person can win, others just have 15mins of fame, then get forgotten about, which can not be good for confidence. At least if you do win, you are guaranteed contracts, except SYTYCD, I don'tthik you get anything except moey out of that.
It all depends at what you're talented at. If you want those 15 minutes of fame, then you can, but I would do what YOU want and for YOUR talents.
Those shows give people who don't have money a chance to try for a better life. I think it is good, but the bad thing is, they can only do the show so long.
It doesn't really matter to me. They probably got famous in that manner through some form of talent anyway.
I don't call people who become famous from stuff like that famous. To me being famous is doing something the majority can enjoy or respect.
Reality show famous is in my eyes, the same thing as youtube famous. To be famous in Hollywood, you either need to be a well expirenced actor, or a pretty good singer (or good connectings e.g.: Miley Cyrus). Some have the talent and some don't, so that's why god created reality shows. For shows like "American Idol", they find nobody singers and make them famous, and most of the time it's not the winner. So i think there are two kinds of famous people.
possibly better, i think that because it seems like becoming famous in Hollywood seems more exclusive and harder to get into, but with stuff like American Idol, it at least gives normal people a chance to "get their foot in the door".
if youre looking for a profession through those shows, id say go for it, and if they dont like you, do it the old fashion way; by yourself. :D
