He said it was his daughter’s idea to hold the auction for a lunch date.The winner said his name is John and said he’s the senior vice president for an oil and gas company in Denver.

A beyond pointless reality show
July 19th, 2006 under Reality International. [ Comments: none ]

A new reality TV show which sees celebrities trying to adopt a child has caused controversy.The BBC One series, which is set to air next year, will follow three household names as adoption chiefs assess their suitability as parents. "We were told they would love a celebrity to end up adopting a child," one adoption agency told The Mirror. "We gave them short shrift. It just doesn’t seem appropriate for an issue as sensitive as this."Mediawatch’s John Beyer added, "It’s a sensitive area to make into entertainment. To bring in stars to jazz it up is wrong."A spokesperson explained that while none of the stars will actually be adopting a child via the show, they may choose to later."We’re only using personalities with a genuine commitment to adoption and who intend becoming parents in the long-term," the BBC added.
