The way things are going, I think I might've had mine when I was WAY to young to remember. My mom took me with her to a Jackie Wilson concert when I was a baby (guess she couldn't find a baby sitter). She was invited on stage, with me in tow. I got to sit on Mr. Wilson's lap. I must've been the envy of every screaming female in the place. Wish I had a picture.

Share your 15 minutes, please.

I designed the opening sequence and ending credits for a television show once...very wild seeing your work broadcast on tv... :O

My shining moment came at the age of 6 when I was on an episode of Romper Room on PBS. I was queen of the balance beam! (anyone remeber this show? - it may have been a midwest thing)

Romper Room!!!...OM-stinkin-G...Was that the show where the lady who hosted it would, at the end of the show, hold up some "magic mirror" or something, and say "I see Tommy...and I see Mary...and I...see...you!"..??...

I was in a three nationally broadcast commercials for Great Clips for Hair.

Thats the one! I think it was Miss Linda or something like that. I remember more about being confused about what the hell I was doing there than I do about the show. Except the balance beam - I tore it up on that thing until some boy pushed me off!!!

In 1996 I made it onto the local and national news, as well as CNN, when Bob Dole came to visit Indianapolis for a campaign stop. I was in the front row, and CNN even did a close-up of me and the guy standing to my left (Ironically, the worst shot of me was on the local news--I think they got my back and the back of my head.) I've got it all archived on video.

BTW, I was 18 years old at the time, and I had long hair dyed a purple/burgundy color. I looked like the last guy who would vote for Bob Dole. Well, as I entered the building, one of his people approached me and asked if I wanted to sit on the stage--they had some bleachers set up on both sides of the podium for a selection of handpicked "everyday people," and I think they asked me because they wanted Dole to project the message, "I'm down with you young people."

I declined and opted for a spot right in front of the podium, against the ropeline.

That was my biggest media exposure. I've had a few other minor TV appearances... just crowd shots. (I'm not counting stuff I've done on local public-access channels.)

Television aside, I was interviewed for an article by sonicnet.com (then a division of MTV News, or at least owned by MTV) at the 2000 Celebration, and they used a lot of quotes/information from me. I was also quoted on canoe.ca (a Canadian friend told me it's a pretty important website) right after Prince filed the lawsuits in 1999 against Uptown and others. And I was interviewed over the phone by Newsweek for an article on identity theft and similar crimes (my MasterCard number got in the hands of a European fraud ring that went on a $4500 shopping spree), but the magazine didn't use any of my interview in their article.

I had Fame playing on TV everyday, for 25 minutes a day as a kid

Nope not yet

Yes, used to dance on soul train(anybody got any 1985 or later episodes let me know). Also got to dance on stage on Cat Glover's performance at Glam Slam West.

LOL..actually I have had more than my 15 minutes...I have had 26 years of it.. after all I have always been a lil ... I get my 15 minutes everywhere I go...
