some adults don't even know what they want never mind kids ,I've raised 4 boys ,all men now, they all went to higher education , and they were lucky, all in great jobs but my point is it's ok to not know what you want long term as long as you get a job that pays for your living expenses day to day, . while working towards what you want long term
My friend's child always knew that she wanted to be in showbiz. Today she has performed in plays, the Apollo, in movies, and can tap dance. Her voice has improved over the years and she is a wonderful star. Performance careers do not require you to go to Hollywood. There are tons of local art houses that one can hone their skills. Become the best wherever you are.
Hello, I come from the parallel universe of Norton X2B, and the Jenny Jones Show is still on the air. In my universe, this episode aired in 2000.. Jenney Jones started in December of 1997, and celebrated her 25th anniversary and 3000th episode in 2022. Also, Obama is still the United States President. Thank God.
@@sin5cents13 When you have a baby to feed… Do what you gotta do and then get out! I don’t know what is wrong with some you idiots! The things I have seen people do in dire need because they need it NOW! When people say “well, get a job!” Well, no shit! Sherlock but “JOBS” and waiting on a job don’t wait for anyone, ding dong! You’ve obviously never been in a serious situation where you have someone to give you a cushion to babysit you until you can get your hands on some money. You clearly know nothing about how life works!
@@MamiTT237 you sound very angry … lol. There’s nothing wrong with doing what u got to do HOWEVER… if someone is on welfare or can’t feed themselves then maybe they shouldn’t be procreating if they don’t have there means to support a child or themselves
I made it into acting and modeling and music it actually wasn’t as hard as I thought it was going to be but I saw really quick the negative aspects and I got out quick! It was fun while it lasted and I made a lot of money! Did wonders for my confidence as well!
I feel bad for that first kid. He couldn't carry a tune if someone lent him a bucket. Sweet potato casserole, that was baaaaad. 😆 edit: the talent did not improve on a case by case basis.
@@stephaniebach__12-24 not really sure to be honest it was either stop dating that loser something like that not for sure it was laid back in the 90s so it was probably like 96 when I went on there
I’ll help you find it. I had mine on VHS but if you know what to search for you’ll find it. Do you remember anything about it? The name? The show topic?
@@sin5cents13 I just remember I went on back in 1996. The episode was about the guy I was dating’s mom and sister and they did not like me. Not sure what it was called could have been stopped dating the loser and I was the loser I don’t really remember to be honest.
@@sin5cents13 and I already try to look for that search title stop dating that loser on Jenny Jones show and there is nothing showing I even was able to contact Jenny Jones personally through email and she told me she does not have access to any of her videotaping that they took them all from her due to the fact of that incident that happened on her show about secret crushes
What you don’t know is that everything was rehearsed. They Put us in separate rooms and hold us exaggerated stories about each other so that when we got out there we were already riled up. Lol it was all game
@@lwills8609meaning they took what we originally said and twisted it around making it look a lot more dramatic than it really was. I don’t know why we went along with it back then but it made for good tv!
There's a difference between not supporting them, and not lying to them. We have seen people auditioning for X Factor etc when they are terrible singers but their parents lie to them and telling them they are the next big thing
Low key the first guy was kinda ok. It was definitely in the midst of the boy band explosion so they weren't gonna have some horrible voice ass dude up there
This is before she did one show of lie detector or paternity test show, and then every single show after that was lie detector cheater shows or paternity tests. I remember Jenny Jones used to actually have interesting shows.
0:06 seconds in, just commenting before watching because I think the kid in the screencap for the video is the kid from are you afraid of the dark and if I'm right I just want it to be noted!
I forgot about her show. I used to watch her all the time in the 90's. I remember the episode when she was crying and talking about being sexua**y a**aulted by a famous comedian. I think I know who that was now. I think I remember her saying it was in her dressing room of the Tonight Show. She said a very famous comedian came in and sat on her chest and wouldn't get off of her. She wouldn't name the comedian because she didn't want to ruin his career.
Have hope but know when the truth has been said...Michael...Sabrina... I mean yes support, but reality has to be acknowledged too. Back when talk shows were more interactive and fun Jenny Jones!!! Better times to me.
I love the attitude that you can't be a musician AND work wtf. I am a lifelong musician. I do it for me, it's what I cherish most about myself. It's not about being "good."
Ain’t nobody heard of these kids. Looks like the parents were correct. The reason why people are superstars is because they are extraordinary. Everybody is not going to make it into showbiz. Getting into professional sports is just as difficult. Let’s push our children to be the best they can be, and follow their dreams in another way. For instance, these kids could’ve been music producers. They have a lot of power and money and it’s a great way to still use your music. These folks need to get more creative. For that kid who wants to be a wrestler. What about Becoming an sports agent?
also to note, majority of superstars HAD their parents backing them up in the start to get where they are....I totally see that they probably didn't get to be what they wanted because they clearly had NO support 😂😂😂😂😂 Superstars HAD support.
@@m2kay42 you’re forgetting something very important. Superstars had talent. These kids are not very talented. You can’t make an iodine quilt from burlap potato sacks
@@hockeygirl8401 😂😂😂😂 HELL NO! You're literally gonna say that some of today's superstars are talented?? Try popular, not talented. Half of today's music artists have AI vocal help. Some actors are nepo babies.
What you are all not realizing is that all of this was staged. Lol ALL OF IT. I was 15 years old and my mother and sister supported me and the show was not supposed to play out like it did. I am currently a very successful owner of a florist and still sing whenever I can. Just because one doesn’t become a superstar does not mean they aren’t a musician. Keep in mind your commenting on a show that is 25 years old.
@@m2kay42 you have your perspective… I have mine. I do agree that not all artist nowadays have true, musical talent, however, they have songwriting abilities or some kind of talent. No one is a superstar with zero talent or charisma.
I don't like to hear that the first kid isn't feeding his dog 😳😢...but vocally he had some good skill there...the natural switches in notes and the little runs here and there. He's probably off pitch because he's going through puberty. And adults in the audience shouldn't be roasting children...that's gross.
Look at Leo the hater😂 I literally wonder how some of these people fail when they look back on this especially that one of be Backstreet Boys group OMG
@@sin5cents13 Oh wow! Didn't mean to put you down. Sometimes a little bit of constructive criticism does help. You have the drive, and the motivation, to reach your goal as a singer. All you have to do is to just stay with it, obviously you won't be another Justin Timberlake but just concentrate on being a Michael(I don't know your last name). Perhaps with a little bit of commitment you will get to The Voice.
@@Jiltedin2007 lol it’s all good. Many years have passed and many things have changed. I own my own florist now. I still sing and wrote music on the side. Everything happens for a reason
The Jenny Jones audiences were so annoying. They acted too trashy, yelling things out and then making stupid comments to the parents for example in this episode.
OH MY GOD MDO IS LIPSYNCHING😢SO BLATANTLY OBVIOUS!!! BUT TO BE FAIR THEY PROBABLY CANT DANCE LIKE THAT AND SING, NOT EVERYONE IS MICHAEL JACKSON BUT I HAVE TO ADMIT IM DISAPPOINTED
THAT GUY LOOKS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING LIKE ELVIS!! LOL FIRST ELVIS IVE SEEN WITH A MOUSTACHE!! AND WITH OR WITHOUT IT BUDDY YOUR NOOOOOOO ELVIS!!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I THINK HIS DAUGHTER IS MORE TALENTED THAN HER FATHER IS!!! WHO BELIEVES THIS GUY WAS EVER IN THE ENTERTAINMENT BUSINESS? OK I DONT SEE EVEN 1 HAND RAISED!😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅

Michael is so sweet. I have a kid who's that age now & I wish he knew what he wanted to do! I think it's great he had drive that young
Aw thank you. How old is your kid now?

First one is drake lol 😆
Lol you’re not the first to say that
Lol I literally said it in my head when I saw the thumbnail. Decided to come in the comments to see if anyone see what I see lol 😂
@@whitneydeniseI’d like to think that I matured in to a better looking dude than him lol
is drake an insult? I thought drake was hot@@sin5cents13

I think that often lot. Music and performing arts these days it’s not about the art of things. It’s about what you can sell.
@@MamiTT237 no need fr snarkiness it was referring if you did any additional work be mindful of how you speak to other
Man I remember this is so long ago 😮
Aww rip Anthony. I didn’t expect MDO to appear on this episode

Awe, first kid is McLuvin from Superbad 😆
Lol thanks a lot !

Lmao he sure does! Freakin psycho!
“Just going gives you something to fall back on “ let the record state this was the official statement at the time

When did this air? Were you in this if you don’t mind me asking?
I miss the Jenny Jones show. I wish I could find my episode when I went on the Jenny Jones show.
What was the topic of the show?

I have told my son same thing that you have to support yourself until you hit it big . With that being said you need a fall back plan or "plan B"
What you don’t know is that everything was rehearsed. They Put us in separate rooms and hold us exaggerated stories about each other so that when we got out there we were already riled up. Lol it was all game
@@sin5cents13 How could they tell you exaggerated stories about your own family? You know your family more than anyone else.
@@lwills8609meaning they took what we originally said and twisted it around making it look a lot more dramatic than it really was. I don’t know why we went along with it back then but it made for good tv!
56:11-56:39 Perhaps a more appropriate song to play in that commercial would have been "I'm Gonna Be Somebody" by Travis Tritt.

12:06 Lee Thompson Young R.I.P
The david salzman enterprises logo has been cut-off!
first guy was very pitchy. Sorry to say. He wouldn’t make it through xfactor or American idol first round sorry to say.
Yes but he was only 15 and his voice hadn’t changed yet

That sister of the first guy dissing Mariah? Lol Mariah is rich and talented what is she?
Lol my sister always ragged on me for liking Mariah. She’s actually a very successful RN now.. but still doesn’t like Mariah 🤣🤣

Why is the guy in the boy band at the end wearing a girl’s halter top over his shirt?
