  18. Dannii says:

    well there was three of us, i got a screen test the other just got a photo, and the last girrl wasnt meant to get a screen test because they told her to go but she stayed for a screen test anyway, i was annoyed with that. . . :angry:!

  19. jo says:

    did the ones picked in your group have the same look?

  20. Dannii says:

    not realy i thought it was quite wierd because i have brown eyes and brown hair and everyone else in the room (basicly) had hair and blue eyes!

  21. Hannah (H) says:

    OMG! They have hair! Hehe, sorry, had to take advantage of that little moment in your last post about the rest of the people having 'hair'. My little sarcastic moment! The four people in my group had hair! The other three had brown hair, two got screen tests, and I didn't, but I got a photo and I have blonde hair.
