You know the show The Biggest Loser?
Yeah, that one. The one with fat people contesting to lose weight, where they zoom in whingy obese people screaming that their legs are in agony, and they can't do it, just cannot move anymore? I caught one episode and was half amused (that people would showcase such personal humiliation) and half disgusted (the one show I caught had a EMT specialist that must have weighed 400 pounds. EMT? Sweetheart, I think I'll save YOU instead.)
Then last Sunday we were out with the parents and my sister receives an SMS from her colleague. Apparently, they're bringing the show to Singapore and are auditioning for contestents. Sister turns to me and asks if I were interested? Heh, I know she was joking. But I told her "we're not fat enough". "At least we're good looking!" came the reply.
Heh. She's right. ;P

Actually know somebody who went for the audition for the Singapore one and when she whispered to me she was going for the audition, I had to look at her and ask her 'HUH?'. Was thinking to myself, why would anyone put themselves through the humiliation? No matter what the amount of money the winner gains to win, it cannot be THAT much that would drive anyone to do something this stupid *shakes head* Anyways, was told that they may even ask to see your bank account etc to make sure you're not one desperate person who is taking part just for the winnings. Eerrr, there's another reason why anyone would go through all that other than money? Oh yeah, good health blah blah blah ...
Babes,
I caught a clip of the auditions... it was quite QUITE pathetic. And hilarious.
Reality shows are only good for one thing. Making fun of other people. lol.
