What do two Chinese boys and two Dutch girls have in common? Both mime to tracks from pop bands like the Backstreet Boys in front of webcams for the world to watch, writes Javier Espinoza.
In your search to become a superstar, you do not have to queue for endless hours to audition for programmes like American Idol or Big Brother. All you have to do is submit your video to Gidol, a new site (not affiliated with Google, although it does utilise Google Video) that holds an online competition for "the many talented (and not so talented)." And if users like you, they vote for you.
Winners are included in the Gidol Hall of Fame. And to get that fame all you have to do is act silly. As the two Chinese boys' blog catchline reads, "Life is short, make fools of yourselves while you can".
