What is the most plausible scenario for you becoming famous?

At my age, the chances of becoming famous are very low. My chances for notoriety, on the other hand, are still viable. A tentative script would entail me doing something outrageous to call attention to some overlooked area of common sense.

It would hafta be- I was "found" somewhere cheesy like at a starbucks or newspaper stand by a very famous director. But most likely because I marry rich and I am just known as that persons wife for ever and ever kinda like evana trump (I think that was one of them).

Stephanie, 24

I plan on being a famous artist someday. It is plausible. I think it could happen. Check back with me later.

Tina, 31

There aren't any. I have absolutely no desire to be famous.

Laura, 35
Lowell

From entering Big Brother or something similar. I'll probably need to in a few years because I'm convinced I'll have loads of debts.

scenario? nah man, you just gotta be yourself, and quit worrying about being the next big thing. You gotta have patience and the will to stick it out.That's the only scenario there is.

Given that I'm actually sitting in Los Angeles, the world capital of "becoming famous", there are several scenarios that could happen. . the most likely one is that I will realize my fullest potential as a director as well as a screen or teleplay writer and that my own distinct skewed vision will be embraced or disdained by all the people whose opinions stupidly matter to me

Hmmm... I dunno... maybe winning some speech/debate thing and then getting in the paper? Kinda pathetic, huh... lol...

"Chick dies--hit by car she jumped in front of to save deer." I don't know. The theory is that I'll be a famous author, but I'd have to have a publisher first and I'd have to have an agent before that. . .

I don't think I'm talented enough to become famous for anything. I can't sing, I work at a bank, and I'm going to school for nursing. I guess the only thing I can think of is if I found a cure for AIDS.

Melodi, 19

Develop a unique art form, bust my ass to get it noticed and find an agent who plays golf with people who make those kinds of investments.

Alias Irrelevante

Inventing something...I have new ideas every day. Most of them are ridiculous and could never happen, but it never hurts to try! I wish it was more exciting though...like I am secretly a really talented actress or some royal family's lost daughter. Oh well!

Some random fluke that places me in the right place at the right time to assist with some heroic task.

While attending the funerals of my parents and my in-laws, I couldn't help but reflect on my own death. Since I had no children, would anyone come to my funeral? Would anyone even care that I had died? What could I do to make some kind of "impact" on the world? This is the answer I came up with.Twenty-five years ago I did a lot of genealogical research on my family, members of the DAR for 10 generations. NO ONE had ever recorded a history of my family. With all the information I gathered (I still have it all) I could write a book and donate copies to genealogical libraries  around the world.

Well, I'm going to be a police officer, so maybe if I bust some really horrible bad guy then I'd be famous, but yeah right, like i'll ever be famous.

Dianne, 16

Winning Powerball two consecutive times. In other words, it ain't gonna happen.

Fisch, 45

The most plausible scenario for me getting famous, which is not very plausible, is if one of my novels that I have written gets published, or anything i have written, gets published. It would be nice to be recognized for having a thimble-full of talent in writing.

Mick, 30

Hmmm... when my ex becomes a rockstar (ha ha) I will be the vengeful ex that exposes his dirty secrets to the National Enquirer, maybe writes a book sbout his evil teenage ways.

Maggie, 20
Sandwich
, IL  USA

It would probably be the 15-minutes-of variety.

Kim, 30
New York

By doing some charitable act or maybe winning the lottery (except I don't really play the lottery).

Janet, 42
E. Brunswick
, NJ   USA

Winning the lottery. Or some similar 1-in-a-billion event, where I'm dragged unexpectedly into fame. I'm not looking to be famous, so this is how it would probably happen.

Jesse, 24

for being a famous singer, dancer, or something to do with the media

Jade, 16

Writing most likely. I will publish tons of smutty romance novels.

Amy, 23

an assassination attempt done to impress Christina Ricci
