I am Face Belly!

I’m not sure if this is suited for here or Cafe Society because it’s about television but I wanted to share that my segment from MTV’s Slient Library is now on their site at

So, you are the kissee? Way to go?

Actually, how did you get that gig? Did you get paid?

Yes I am the one receiving the “kiss”

I saw a posting on Craigs List and answered it. Yes I was paid for my appearance. No residuals but my hope is it goes viral and I get asked for future projects because I am memorable.

You have no shame.

That is AWESOME! :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

Your demeanor reminds me of Paul Bellini from The Kids in the Hall.

ZipperJJ thanks for that compliment. I just wish that one day I’ll be known as that fat guy who appears shirtless with no reaction that you see in many movies or TV shows.

I’m not sure whether to high-five you or feel sorry for you. :stuck_out_tongue:

Are you willing to say how much they paid you? That might have a considerable effect on my decision.

Yes it was 300 before taxes. :slight_smile: Although remember I am not the person who had to kiss the face.

When I mentioned feeling sorry for you, I was referring to the embarrassment. Being led into a room to have a girl kiss your belly while her friends laugh at her for it, etc.

But hey, I wish I had 300 bucks right now so more power to you. :stuck_out_tongue:

Why would I be embarrassed about what happened? It was known up front by my what I’d be doing and the humor in it is amazingly over the top. Here I am in a situation that I would never encounter normally and I’m having fun.

Glad to hear it. I’d probably do it for a soda and a buck fifty.

Did that not tickle? I’m amazed you kept a straight face!

Yeah, but then you’d have to go wash all that red paint off your face.

I immediately worried about tickling too! Also, what was the red mouth painted with? She got it all over her face!

Yer a cool dude, Manny!

:smiley:

“Sorry, we are unable to offer that video in your region.”

I’m not sure whether I should be relieved or disappointed.

A group of giggling girls each take a card from a stack of cards and turn them over. One girl, the loser, turns out to have a card with a skull and crossbones. Her challenge? She must make out with the bellybutton of what a narrator describes as “a large man” with a face painted on his chest, the large, red mouth painted over his belly (the OP). The girl gets on her knees before the OP and proceeds to kiss and lick his bellybutton. After a few seconds of this the OP leaves the room and the girls are given a cash reward.

That was awesome!!

You got an attractive woman to make out with your bellybutton!

Most are wondering how you kept a straight face but I wonder if you had any other issues? You know um, with ah below the belt? :wink:

A little lower and it would have cost you 300.

Yes it did tickle when she was doing what she was doing but I internally distanced myself (if that makes sense) As soon as I was out the door and the segment was finished I did start howling with laughter.

I don’t know what the makeup-artist used to paint the face but she did an amazing job of it. It took me a little while in the shower there to get it all off.

The straight face part was simple

  1. look at a point past the subject so you have something to concentrate on but looks like you are looking at the subject
  2. Pretend this is not happening to you
  3. Think unfunny thoughts

As far as below the belt there was nothing that popped up :smiley: Really I was not turned on because just physical doesn’t do anything for me. I need a mental connection and there was nothing there.

They only paid you $300?
