Even in our reality-TV-run-rampant world, those souls who make it to the tube are still relatively few — unless you count the granddaddy of all reality — the news. Anybody's fair game from a man-on-the-street interview to a human-interest story.
Though sometimes how one's labeled for their 15 seconds of news fame is anything but dignified. Behold these glorious screenshots of ignoble notoriety. Which tag would you least like to see under your name on the news? If you like these funnies, check out the rest.

"Loves Bone Lick Park" wasn't a worthy competitor??
1Yes ma'am it was. Just tryin' to keep it clean
2But! You may have that for your very own if you'd like
I just don't know how I'd ever get over the shame of being known as "that lady that lives down the block."
Dear me! The very thought. I might be getting the vapors!
3Thats a lady?!
4Thank you - that's gotta be on stationery or something, it sounds so awful!
But there's a rib restaurant in NY with the name and this:
'The Northern Kentucky site where explorer William Clark gathered bones of prehistoric animals to send to Thomas Jefferson's White House will be named one of four Lewis & Clark Heritage Trail Sites east of Missouri by the National Park Service.'
So I guess we just have potty minds.

6There is a resturant with that name! Crazy!
It always seems like they pick the most idiotic people they can find to be on the news, no matter what the story. I would never want to be on it...that would mean I won the "Fool of the day" prize. No, thank you!
7There's something I like about "lives down the block."
8"Single," but not because of the tag. It must suck to be filmed with your Confederate sheets behind you.
9I have always been afraid of: "He was such a quiet boy." I've heard that used to describe me.
10Yikes...If I were single, having that announced on local TV would be a slap in the face. Way to spread my business to my neighbors and rub it in that I'm alone!
11What a coincidence, today I was just telling my mom how I'd be mortified to be in the News, period. x.x
12"Absolutely Disgusting" is one that I would be terrorifed to have as the caption.
13I had a friend on the news for eating so many hotdogs in a certain amount of time and his title on the local news was "fastest wiener gobbler". That was hard to live down.
14I never even noticed the sheets. Oh, man serial! Nice eye. Yikes.
15I know Serial. Now I feel like I have to examine all the pictures.
16THAT one is the best, Stiletta!
17when i was a kid my parents had a friend that was watering his lawn and the news man across the street asked if they could film him for their segment on "water". the segmant would be on the news that night. he said yes! and they filmed him watering his plants, then they had him wash off his driveway, told him to smile and then they were done.
he called friends to tell them he would be on the news (including my parents). i remember waited through the boring news for him to be on. well when he was on it was a segmant on "water wasting" and they showed him hosing off his driveway, big smile on his face
over the
title "extreme water waster". the anchor said "why is he smiling? wow, some people!"
the phine rang about 1 second later and it was my parents friend, screaming about how pissed he was, lol. it was pretty funny.
18Oh my god..."loves bone lick park" :rofl:
19Absolutely Disgusting
20LMAO "Absolutely Disgusting" would def be hilarious... Hey I think that James guy lives down the block from me...
21what about "the cat lady from the top floor"
