Have you ever been in the paper?

And what for? I was in it once for having the same birthday as my sister. :rolleyes: (we're not twins). And I might've been on the drunken idiots section before, where someone goes round a club with a camera.
But my big ambition is to be the subject of outrage on the front of the Daily Mail. My uni lecturer managed The Sun, but I aim to go one step further.

I don't think that I've ever been in a more significant paper although a large photo of me was the main part of the display in a photographers window for about a year - and again I was wearing a leotard.
*hides face in shame*
I've been in my local paper TWICE about my mad life (at the time) and once in the Manchester Evening News about the same issues (which my friends on my LJ have had the links to recently after I found them on the newpaper's online archives which I never knew existed! If only! I felt rather smug because people on here in the past have accused me of lying so I was proving those who never believed me wrong ). My Mum actually had offers from The Sun to print our story in the paper but my Dad stopped her thank gawd.
I've also been in the paper several times for school stuff, such as GCSE results, being a prefect, A Level results, just the norm.
Show off! :razz:
I was in several times by name and had my ugly mug slapped on the page only once. Won a fancy dress competition dressed as a roller-skating martini waitress. Thanks, mam!
what was that for? If you dont mind my asking?
I'd rather not say on here again tbh.
I'll PM you the links to the articles.
Aye :yes:
Oh I forgot about that. Our team won the local primary school competition in year 5. I was a substitute.
Also, prize day when I was at school.
I've been on the radio a couple of times too. Was on American radio in the summer getting interviewed by this guy that sounded exactly like the KBBL radio station guy from the Simpsons, haha.
was it to request the return of your lost camera?
I've been on the TV 4 times. In elementary school we had a project of how the earth was created. I was like 7 years old and had to smash a brick with a hammer and couldn't do it the first (and second and third time) and the fuckers brought all the mishaps too. So I was there blushing while hammering that fucking brick.
Well, we got 5 minutes of TV at around 2pm, so that's something.
I've been in the paper for various birthdays and stuff as well (my friends are evil) and for a course I did at college when I was about 15....
Me and this girl got to model them
Yep... i'm a model
Haha, I didn't know that! Do you still have the picture?
I was in the paper for some gymnastics thing when I was little, not sure exactly what it was about though.
I have no idea actually... I will ask the old dear and find out.
also, me n my mates were in the paper for the whole gettin kidnapped and held hostage for 12 hours at gun point malarky!
You must come from a realllllllly small town ..
and then another time when me and our netball team won a tournament
oooh and ive also been on tv.. well.. kinda!
i was the child in a hospital information video which told parents what the children would get upto after/before having an operation.
i had to sit around in a nightgown and pretend to play chess with another little boy for like 2 days - very boring! i think i was about 8
and as far as i know they still show that video :yes: or thats what im told by the woman who got me the part in it!
Being a miracle baby, meeting Tony the Tiger when he came to the Co-op, school sports day, my Granny's obituary and getting robbed at knifepoint when I worked in a video shop :thumb:
God, they'll consider anything newsworthy nowadays.
