Thank you Latios, I am just taking a moral stand I guess! A few of the contestants are only young, and in these days of paranoia of paedophiles, I guess I'm just joining the paranoia brigade.
If my child was on the show, I'd hate to have to worry that everytime they logged onto their Facebook/Bebo etc that I'd feel like vetting every message. B: If my child had a internet profile i would be heavy censoring/monitoring it anyway. Personally, i think the internet is far to often blamed for poor parenting. |

Lol DON'T apologise you have a right to an opinion. I was just saying that most celebs these days like to have myspace and facebook to keep in touch with fans and promote there music/shows/gigs or whatever they are doing..
But as this years BGT is mainly full of children than internet profiles should be a big NO NO or they should be on private and monitored by a parent or guardian. |

Surely people have the option to go either public or private?

I think to be able to access the contestants Social Networking profiles easily can work in their benefit. I mean, if you have tons of pictures/videos of your act, then people could see that as another mini-audition. Also, with 'Strike', I missed their acts on the show, so popping onto their 'OPEN' Bebo, I was able to see the Video (of the act), acts of them performing (generally) and also gave you an idea of their lives (just ordinary people - with a talent). I don't see what all the 'huff' is about. As already mentioned, if you create a Social Networking Profile, and leave it closed/private, that is a sign, that it is only intended for viewing of approved persons. However, leaving it open is a sign that it is there for public viewing in a public domain! |

I don't see a problem with adding people if their profiles are public. If you're going on TV, if people know your name and like you the chances are they'll google you and FB you etc. I keep my profile private, if I was famous (not likely...lol) then I'd definitley do so.

It they have a publicly accessible profile (as is the case with a lot of myspace profile) then what's the problem. If these people are stupid enough to allow their profile to be open to the public with the full knowledge that they are going to appear in a reality TV programme it's their problem!
Harsh but true! PS If anyone has the phone numbers of anyone of the girls in Escala's then feel free to send them to me. ![]() Well their phone number is readily available on their Web site. Why do you want it? Are you thinking of booking them? |
