Total Xposure on TV3

from www.iftn.ie

Quote:
The three judges consist of publisher Michael O’Doherty, former MTV presenter Emma Ledden and public relations specialist Gerry Lundberg.
Each judge will bring their individual experience and expertise to the show which will be vital when selecting the new Xposé Presenter. The newest member of the team will join Karen Koster, Glenda Gilson, Lisa Cannon and Aisling O’Loughlin on the daily entertainment show, Xposé.

Applications opened 15th May and closed Wednesday 3rd June at 5pm. TV3 received over 1,000 individual applications and show reels, with an upsurge in delivery the days prior to the closing date. Applicants included a variety of people with very different backgrounds including reality TV Stars from Ireland and the UK, both former and the Current Miss Ireland representatives, many working journalists, twins, models, beauty pageant winners and children’s TV presenters.

The finalists will face the team of Michael O’Doherty, Emma Ledden and Gerry Lundberg on the judging panel. Over the course of Total Xposure, the contestants will complete a number of tasks directly relating to the potential job to join the Xposé team.

The first hour long show will air June 30th and run for eight consecutive weeks. The new presenter will be revealed on the final show Tuesday, August 18th.

Director of Programming, Ben Frow said: "The judges will bring a wealth of knowledge to the show, while bringing a level of honesty, compassion, sensitivity and in some cases frankness that can only come from experience within their individual industries. The show is sure to produce a lot of fun over the summer weeks.”
I don't think professionals should be allowed enter this competition it kind of goes against the idea of Reality TV.

They were introducing Emma Leddan as a 'Communications Expert' yesterday on Expose.....Since when has she become a 'communications expert'?!!

She's no Denis O'Brien but I definitely would!

No one heard back, it was just a PR scam. They had all the people picked before they set it up!

20 people selected altogether. Daily Mail reported that some high profiled where told where to go, while the Herald said the job was only for 20 grand a year.

Read all that recently! They released a few names ; Ruth O'Neill, Brian Dowling, Adrienne Rock, Leanne Moore ... They all applied. Was in most of the tabloids!

So was the thing about the salary - Said it was completely made up and they wouldn't be issuing details about the presenter's pay.

Really? Said something on the website about all applicants being responded to by the 23rd! Which was Tuesday.

"All applicants will be notified as to whether their application was not successful by June 23rd"

It's an odd programming choice alright. I'd say it has something to do with the GAA being on.

If people can't watch it then, I'm pretty sure it'll be repeated!

Any guesses as to who made it to the final?

The show is actually on every Tuesday @9. Sunday is just a preview of some of the celeb enteries because they had so many enteries they couldnt fit it into the first show.

Well, given that the show is two hours long, I presume a good chunk of the auditions will be in it! Probably all the humorous ones!
Very excited to see it
