Quiz: The Hills, Jersey Shore and the like. Includes bonus essay question.

[certainthings]

Now, I don't watch these shows or didn't watch, as the case may be with The Hills but from the internet, TMZ, magazines and other such sources I know way too much about these shows. Like a couple of their names.

Question One:
Were any of these people 'famous' before being on these reality shows or are they 'famous' because of these shows?

Question Two:
Does anyone honestly think that "The Situation" is attractive at all? Seriously?

Bonus Essay Question:
If Mike Sorrentino* can call himself "The Situation" because of his abs, should Jared Padalecki call himself "Houston, We Have a Problem"?


*I had to look up his actual name.

Oh God, I was just talking to my friend about these shows yesterday. They should be BAN_SET. My opinion of someone definitely lowers if I find out they're watching these. Or Keeping Up With The Kardashians. D:

#1 - I think they're famous because of these shows. However, Lauren Conrad from The Hills was famous before The Hills because she was in another reality TV show called Laguna Beach.
#2 - Ugh I don't think so. If they do - read my first paragraph, lol.
Bonus - HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH yes, we should.

lol @ "Houston, we have a problem."

I don't watch Jersey Shore, but I think the guy calls him Situation because he always says he's gonna solve "the situation"? Idfk.

And as far as I know, none of the people from The Hills were very famous prior. Lauren and maybe Kristen were a tiny bit but it was because of Laguna Beach.

1.) They are only infamous because they were on those shows. Otherwise, no one would know who they are.

2.) I have no earthly idea what he even looks like aside from tan. I'm gonna wager NO, though.

B!) Jared could call himself that, but it'd be a mouthful. And really, rather than a problem, I think his abs could be the solution to most things. Perhaps we could call him "The Solution" or "The Salvation". He is Jesus Padalecki afterall.

WHY DOES NO ONE ELSE SEE THAT THE SITUATION LOOKS LIKE ELMER FUDD?

Hahaha, I am so trapped by shows like Jersey Shore. It's ridiclous. But, really, people like Snookie and JWoww would not be famous if they weren't infamous.

I like Jared's nickname!

I approve of these questions.

Argh, I can't watch those shows, I just get angry at how stupid ppl are.


And Jared? Damn. I like your new nickname for him.

apparently i would do anything to procrastinate on an assignment due in..two days! YAY QUIZZES!

Q1: I'M CONVINCED THE SHOWS MAKE THEM FAMOUS.
Q2: okay, my knowledge of him is limited from what I gleaned from ONTD while rapidly scrolling down the page but he kinda seemed like a douche. MAYBE HE SAVES KITTENS IRL OR WHATEVS BUT I'M SORRY, ONCE YOU ARE ON A REALITY SHOW, I'M TOTES JUDGING YOU.
Q3: BRB LAUGHING AND LUSTING.

#3 AMEN MY SISTA!!
