h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

As a child I really wanteed to be a popstar, and truly believed I would be, my friend and I wrote a song, made a 'video' and dressed up in binbags, calling ourselves 'The Teabags' I still wonder where we thought we'd get with a name like that!
Our song was ridiculous and I still remember it, it was called 'You broke my dolly (for another girl) and aged 7 I truly believed it was going to be a hit, only problem was we couldn't actually sing so needless to say I never did get my dream job, then again you never know what will happen tommorrow...........

well, they're holding auditions for some popstars programme thing at the moment around the UK...

Popstars have a short shelf life these days, unless they're VERY lucky. I guess it can be good while it lasts, but what a come-down afterwards. And even if they're successful they come under a hell of a lot of stress, plus all those hangers-on trying to get a piece of the action, and the pressures to use illegal substances and indulge in other excesses. I think in reality it's not the bed of roses a lot of people think it is.

Do you think if I wore my binbag costume I'd get through the first auditions singing my song ??

I think it's worth a try! And at worst, you could be like that YMCA girl and get an advert deal!

I don't even think that i'd get n advert deal, I REALLY can't sing! Then again listening to the stuff some of the teenagers are into at the moment it could be time for me and 'The Teabags' to make a comeback!!!
