FOUR LOCAL CELEBRITIES REVEAL THEIR ON-SCREEN SCREAMERS
Just because you’re on telly, doesn’t mean you’re always happy about what you see yourself do!
For many of our on-screen celebs, life in front of the camera can mostly be fun, always entertaining and occasionally a bit embarrassing.
The Weekly talks to four TV personalities who aren’t afraid to admit that, sometimes, it really can go horribly wrong!
SUZANNE PAUL
INFOMERCIAL HOST & TELEVISION PRESENTER
"I have never watched myself [on TV] even from the first advert I ever did because you never look and sound how you think you will.
Right from the start I was highly criticised for my accent. Everywhere I went people would say, ‘Oh my God, you’re the lady with the strange voice and the weird accent.’
When I saw myself on the telly I had to agree. I do sound terrible and I don’t like the look of myself. When I did Dancing with the Stars my dance partner, Stefano Oliveri, and I sat down after the first week to watch the episode and I was mortified. I didn’t look how I felt.
In my head I was young and slim and gorgeous. When I saw myself I was distraught. Oh, look at my stomach! Oh, look how short my legs are! Even though I won the competition and everybody said I looked gorgeous I just couldn’t see it. I completely lost my confidence and thought I looked like a complete idiot. Stefano said I wasn’t to watch myself anymore because it wasn’t good for my confidence, so I didn’t.
