“The Baker and the Beauty,” is a romantic comedy-drama television series that premiered on ABC in April of 2020, and Nick James got to be in one of the episodes. Sort of. We aren’t sure if his face ever even appears on-screen, but his back does, at least, standing as he is in his white shirt.
Nick went on to add some more detail: he got the gig as an extra through a casting agency. If you’re itching for one small dose of fame, that might be the way to go. Here’s hoping that you get a little bit more luck than Nick here.
Now This Is Entertainment
If you were a kid in the nineties and watched any amount of PBS, then you're familiar with “Zoom.” This series of live-action children's entertainment had plenty of fun for everyone, and Twitter user @ameliasamson has let us know that she was on an episode of this show all the way back in 1998.
It was the opportunity of a lifetime, and while Amelia didn't become a big name, she sort of has a fan in Chrissy Teigen, who commented “LOVED ZOOM” when Amelia posted her pic. The Zoom brand was based on information and fun, but they didn't let their child actors appear in other shows for at least three years after leaving the show in order to discourage fame hounds.
Famous for Telling Off Trolls
Bullies, and their internet version trolls, have never been anyone's favorite, but when they called writer Melissa Blake ugly, they had no idea who they were dealing with. Melissa is a writer, blogger, and disability activist, and when the mean tweets started coming in, Melissa fired back, eventually getting a People.com story.
The story came with tons of support from all over the globe, and now Melissa is laughing at the trolls who tried to tear her down. Spending your time attacking people online isn't a very good use of your time, and getting smacked back down by the person you're trying to insult is a harsh lesson.
Some Claims to Fame Aren't so Great
If you apply yourself to it, you might just be able to figure out what the Toilet Paper Wedding Dress Challenge, hosted by TLC every year, entails. Contestants, who are all talented costume and fashion designers, have to design and build a wedding dress made out of only toilet paper.
The winner gets a big cash prize, but what did Twitter user @Iambpocket get for appearing in the audience? Probably not that much, but she at least got to enjoy herself – the picture shows her laughing along with the rest of the audience.
We'll Take Her Word for It
Twitter user @t1ffanylin tells us that she appeared on Google Streetview, though since Google blurs out all the faces, we're going to have to take her word for it. However, since she's put her profile picture on Twitter as the exact same image from Google, we're willing to trust her.
We hesitate to call this one minute of fame – perhaps something like three seconds of fame – but it's still a pretty funny thing to tell friends and loved ones. People who know you in real life will at least be able to tell for certain if it's you.
