Kelly and Michael

[DeluxePrincess]

If the older kid really didn't want to do it, he should have been allowed to skip it. However, I'm sure his age group is the target audience for Test Track so he was probably encouraged to do it. I kind of liked the "realness" factor of it all though. I like that a celeb's kid didn't want to be phony.

I think he had some kind of surgery on his foot a few weeks ago.

Oh, ok. Thank you for the information.

Really cute and funny segment with Michael and his sons on a boys night out. Love Michael's personality.

I think his oldest son looked more annoyed the Kellys son.

My son is the same age as Michael. (14 ) sorry don't buy it.
His scowl made the whole segment look stupid. At least try and crack a smile for goodness sake.

I agree. Not all teens are surly. His mother needs to teach him how to behave in public. Camera on or off.

Michael's kid was probably told to look annoyed on Small World. Kelly's son looked absolutely miserable throughout the whole segment. When she was turned around on Test Track, it almost seemed like she was telling him to smile or act happy, to no avail. If he's "too cool" for it all, leave him home with the housekeeper.

Are there any links to watch the show now?

I don't know. My kids look the same way on "It's a Small World". I took a picture of DS to hold as blackmail should I need it. He says all the singing characters creep him out.

Michael's sons were a part of the gag where they wanted thrill rides and Michael agreed to go them if they would then go on his "favorite thrill ride" after...it turns out to be its a small world. His sons were to look annoyed at his thrill ride.

I know Kelly in the past has stayed at the Y&BC...and Jon Cryer just described the pool there.

It was because of your gracious generosity that my family and I were able to attend the tapings back in 2005!

Kelly was on Jimmy Kimmel last night. She said they tricked him into it. They told him it wasn't being filmed and then surprise! So he was probably pretty ticked.

Glad what ever we did made a Magical Moment for your family....

See many here were quick to blame the kid for being a rude teen. I'm sorry but he has been very very clear about not wanting his life played out before the cameras. His parents and the producers are to blame IMHO....they could have left him behind and not tricked him or editing him out all but a few quick shots. Looking at the tape again, he appears to have acne pretty bad and at 15 is probably very conscious about his looks. Which is a valid reason not to want to be on camera. And coming off very very grumpy when tricked...

 

[Mouseteacher]

Now it makes sense because they tricked him. No one would be happy if they were duped- no matter the age.

But..... During the segment on test track he didn't know he was being filmed?
And was still miserable?

How is that any different?

Meh, I'm not buying her excuse. I'm sure she's just trying to put her kid in a better light. She's awful for making him part of the TV segments, with or without "tricking" him. If he doesn't want to be on camera, she should honor that.

I answered my own question from above. The Kelly and Michael website has the links to all the WDW segments!

Now I know what you guys were talking about!

Eight years ago we were all here talking about attending the "LIVE" taping at WDW (reference: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=797833&highlight=regis ) and you were so kind as to send me your extra tickets because you were unable to travel down to Florida for the taping (reference: http://www.disboards.com/showpost.php?p=8414182&postcount=55 )

I'll always remember your kindness!

She said he didn't know until they got in the car and there were 3 cameras setup. He couldn't back out at that point (or she would't let him).

awww that's so nice!!!

Zurg, do you not remember this? (just curious!)
