Those Celebrities....Geez
A few weeks ago I went to McDonalds to buy William one of those new deli sandwiches that just came out. That place was like a zoo. Or a farm. People just waiting anxiously for animal carcass sandwiches with a side of fried potato sticks. While I was waiting in line a certain person caught my eye at the front of the line. It was one of the guys from X-factor...TJ to be exact. X-Factor is Australia's version of American Idol. They have a panel of judges and one of them seems way too similar to Simon. Anyhow, this TJ character is part of a group called Random. They can compete either as part of a group or alone on this show. He was standing at the front counter holding a back of food and it took me awhile to recognize him, I almost asked him for an autograph, but that just seemed silly. The whole idea of gettting someone's authogrpah is just plain strange it you think about it. Famous or not, all you really have is a signature from some random person. So I didn't ask him for it. I turned around and saw another guy from the group as well. I didin't see anyone going up to ask them for signatures or anything, which I think is why he starting singing to himself to attract attention. He should of sang louder. That's what I thought anyways. I watched them leave McDonalds out of the corner of my eye. After all, staring is just plain bad manners. Plus, the kid is only like 16.
On another note, William and I had our photoshoot yesterday. I felt really cool, especially since I was wearing my flash red coat and our picture is going to be on a brochure which will be distributed throughout the city as part of a tourist scheme. It was kind of strange, smiling for no reason, pretending to look at something in the distance and pretending to be having a good time because we're tourists that just really had a good time visitin the State Library...having a photographer take pictures of us. I kind of liked it. When I got home I looked for William's camera and took more pictures of myself trying to look all sultry and seductive. I must say, I'm not meant to look that way. I'm such a weido.
We're gonna be pretty famous...you might want to start asking for our autographs now.
