MTV Casting Call - I'm Happy to be Fat

truelife145 · 09-17-2007, 10:46 AM

Hi,

My name is Ana and I am casting for MTV's True Life upcoming episode, "I'm happy to be fat". We are looking for any MALES age 18 - 28 who are happy, fat, and proud of their size. We are also interested in any male gainers out there. It has been brought to our attention that there is a whole world of people out there who think that fat is sexy and we would love to find a guy who feels sexy with his size.

Anyone interested can email me at acordova@leftright.tv

Thank you!

Just wanted to mention that Conrad did give his OK for this to be posted, incase any of you were concerned.

Where the feck is the MTV show for fat WOMEN. See...another shining example of how its ok for MEN to be fat.

I would be extremely wary of any exposition on BHM / BBW by the media, they tend to twist the context of things to suit the ideals of our culture. (the advertisers?) So be careful what you wish for.

Also Lisa, I would have to disagree about it " being o.k. for men to be fat ".
I have been overweight (sometimes enormously) all of my life and more often than not I've been subjected to the disdain of folks because of my size.
Perhaps it is more accurate to say that it's somewhat more acceptable in the eyes of our society for a man to be fat, but still not completely acceptable.

Hi Lisa, just a quick note on this one. My understanding from another site they posted on is that they have found like 3 women they will follow already. Finding a guy willing to do it is proving more challenging I guess.

I believe they already have at least one woman.. a girl I know was involved in this program.

(Sorry Mike, just saw your post!

Oh, yeah.

Remember "Sex2K"? They couldn't get enough dirt on the furry fandom to fill and hour, so they jammed "crush films" in with it.

I give it a C-, myself. If you can't find enough sex in the furry fandom to fill an hour, you're doing something wrong.

gangstadawg · 09-24-2007, 02:20 AM

id try out but im not big enough. im only 190lbs.

Forrest · 09-24-2007, 02:30 AM

She sent me a message on MySpace. She found my page and thinks I would be a good person for the showing since I am fat (260) and gaining (to 300, maybe more). I don't want to go on though. I may post my reason why, that I wrote someone. It is really long though.

Aeiry Stone · 09-24-2007, 01:46 PM

They did find a guy for this show, my boyfriend. He and I were filmed to be on this episode, but then they got extremely demanding, and for a 15 minute segment on the show, they wanted to film us 2x a week for around 4-6 hours each time for a month...and this was after the fact that they had a good 3 hours of footage of us.

By the way, THERE IS NO FORM OF PAYMENT FOR YOUR SERVICES TO BE ON THIS SHOW!!!!

MTV's REVENUE in 2006 - OVER SIX BILLION DOLLARS

It's DEFINITELY NOT worth the aggravation and inconvenience to be on TV for 15 minutes.

This is why my boyfriend and I dropped out of this 'project'.

Any questions drop me a line I'll be more than happy to elaborate on more details.

That is so typical for reality tv. I'm not even sure how its legal. Btw, why does the media love contacting the dimensions forum? I've been here about six months and I've already seen three messages from people claiming to be from a major network.

It's "legal" because they hide their show under the label of being a "DOCUMENTARY SHOW" instead of "REALITY SHOW". Basically MTV whored out a little company, paid them a flat rate to do six shows, and they used the money to pay for equipment and producers and all that kind of stuff, and they have no money to pay the people they are filming. I don't blame the small company, my beef is with MTV and their billions of dollars.
