I’ll go first, to set the tone:

Tay Zonday of ‘Chocolate Rain’ fame used to follow me on Twitter. 💪

    I did a photo shoot for Johnson and Johnson as an infant lol for one of their products.

    And also was one of the IRL kids on Teletubbies.

      Were the Teletubbie as creepy to be around IRL (in full costume and character) as they were to watch? I was a bit old for the Teletubbies target audience range when it was out but I was still a kid and they gave me the heebie-jeebies.

        Haha I wish I could answer that but I wasn’t on the set itself.

        I don’t remember the context exactly as it’s been a while since I watched, but IIRC every episode they used to show learning activities that kids did as a “peek” into the IRL world, sometimes individually and sometimes as a group. Example: https://youtu.be/AgC1CFISch8?t=4m41s

        I was in one of the episodes where kids did some group activity. I don’t really remember it much though, I would have been less than 5 years old.

        I still haven’t managed to find which episode the one I was on; it should actually be sort of easy to find it for certain reasons but it’s… Teletubbies. I’m not arsed enough 😂
