I have been doing some web surfing on other Reality TV blogs and such and I recently came across an article that caught my eye. I have to completely agree with a lot of what the author talks about. The author dives into how most of these newly crowned "reality TV" stars claw at the opportunity to try and extend their "15 minutes of fame" when most of them if not all, don't even have a viable talent to warrant the added acclaim. Like for example theses semi famous female reality stars, just because you're semi attractive and have the moral compass which allows you to pose half naked (if not fully nude) in front of the camera doesn't mean you should be famous... it just means your more of an exhibitionist than a celebrity. Or take some of these people who have won on a show like Fear Factor for eating bull testicle... if eating bull testicles was the standard for fame all of Spain would be famous seeing as bull testicle is a national delicacy. Fame should be for those who deserve it, artists, musicians, novelists, people with real talents. I'm a firm believer that if your so called talent just takes you on a search for the limelight then you don't deserve it to begin with.
