Waynesville High School students interviewed last week for their chance to be “MADE” by the hit TV show produced by MTV.
MTV held a casting call at the school Thursday, Sept. 24, and students spent their lunch periods being grilled by a network representative. During “MADE” episodes, MTV film crews follow a student as they embark on a mission to transform their life, providing them a mentor or life coach.
Waynesville students said they aspired to be everything from dancers to magicians to models.
Principal Randy Gebhardt said he was more than happy to have “MADE “come to the school, as the show encourages students to follow their dreams and helps them achieve them.
Junior Cory Spitzer said he enjoys the show and would like even more to be the star of an episode. Spitzer said he recently lost more than 50 pounds and has since been receiving many compliments from classmates, so he wants now wants to be a model.
The interview questionnaire specifically asked students to include details about what they have done on their own to try to achieve their goal.
Freshman Alex Dimbath wants to learn how to be a magician, like his uncle and grandfather. He said MTV could help him improve by getting him access to experts who can teach him the necessary skills.
Samantha Jeffries, a freshman, has always been a dancer.
“It’s always been my dream to dance since I was little,” Jeffries said. A former ballet dancer, she now wants to become a hip-hop dancer.
Inspired by singer Colbie Caillat, sophomore Abby Tuck’s dream is to be a pop singer.
“I want to get better and write my own songs,” Tuck said. “They can help me sing better and teach me some strategies.”
If a student is selected he or she will be contacted when interviews are complete. “MADE” is traveling around Ohio looking for their next subject.
