Oh look. What a wonderful engagement replete with a full production team. What’s that? I have an email. Okay hold on…
My name is Matt Still and my wife Ginny and I where thrown into the spotlight when my marriage proposal went viral over a year ago. It now has over 25 million views. We live just 30 minutes south of Atlanta.
Oh look y’all, they were thrown into the spotlight! It’s a Christmas Miracle!
We are just two average people but we have been in talks from producers in Hollywood about us getting a TV show helping people pull off epic and creative proposals. We are thrilled with the opportunity but very nervous at the same time
Just two average people selling their reel to Hollyweird y’all. They want to help more media whores do the same thing! But they are nervous. They never, EVER, expected to get any attention.
We meet with a rather large production company last week in Hollywood (the best one there is in my opinion) and I noticed that they follow you on twitter. I was just wondering if you might willing to give me your input and advice. I am not sure if you can help us or not but just wanted to give it a shot. You seem to know a lot of reality tv and your in Atlanta like us.
Why little ole me? I’m so honored. I don’t reckon I know anything about no production agencies following me. I do seems to know a whole lot about reality TV in Atlanta don’t I? I reckon I might could put you and your mamaennim in touch with some of them there television folk. But I see you already got that best large production company flyin’ you out to Hollyweird and stuff. I only gots me these ten followers but even I know it’s ‘you’re’ not ‘your’ so your PR guy should have written sum better material for you.
I’m so sorry Matt and Ginny. . I am not sure what you wanted me to say, but if it was a prediction on your imaginary weddin’ I spilled some tea and honestly? The leaves for y’all two don’t look that great.
I look forward to your response
Do ya now? I think you might regret askin’ me, homeboy. Wait did you just delete your tweet? Aw, me an you both know you just wanted some pubicity. I gots me 17 followers now and they all know about y’all. That’s a fine howdy doo! Yer welcome!
Oh, shit. I’d give that “boyfriend” a kick in the sack; then I’d disown my Dad. Then I’d join a circus to try to forget this.
Didn’t Kat Von D’s latest John, I mean boyfriend, just propose to her on twitter and even showed the picture of the ring? Prostitution-whore! Monkey with a wig on! Bloop!
You people are AWFUL! They just wanted me to help them… um… wait what did they want me to help them to do again? Oh yeah., Share their totally unplanned marriage proposal Youtube. Which I did! I’m nice like that. ANYTHING I can do to help this marriage along the obvious course ASAP. I’m nice like that. Watch it twice, think how much money his daddy spent on production!
Matt says:
You are right, I am very sorry I wrote you.
Ginny and I are Christian people who have been happily married for over a year now. We even just gave birth to our first daughter. Our concern was we didn’t want a TV show to harm our family in any way. The only reason we any considered this was because we have had so many positive emails from people all over the world saying how our love story has touched them. If we didn’t think we could do some good for the world, we wouldn’t even consider this. We started helping people with things more than just proposals and we haven’t made a dime off of all this.
Again, I am sorry I wrote you and I really wish you would take down your post about me. You really don’t know anything about us and it isn’t very nice or polite to talk bad about others, especially those you don’t know anything about.
I hope you have a good night and we wish you a Merry Christmas
Facacta.
Well Matt, it you don’t want to be exposed to people speaking badly about you and yours or being impolite or judging or not been nice – stay off the TV!
See? They are just trying to do good for the world, Y’all!
Hold me back, hold me back! Or – how about “I’m coming Lizabeth”…….What in the world were they thinking? Just kidding, of course I know what they were thinking – to fly on the coat tails of anyone in the public eye that could help them. I just hate it this.
Jesus. Someone is trying to send me links to people who proposed by twitter.
let’s review. They have the best production team in Hollywood. They want my ( a blogger) help. Despite being functionally illiterate, They have a full production team at their disposal for their engagement scene and now have a deal on the table for some show about helping other media whores make a big production about their proposal. You know just AVERAGE people, thrown into the spotlight.
Jesus Christ. Do a sex tape and be done with it.
This fool is a Douche to the 10th power.
Your blog is my happy place. Thank you Tamara.
here! here!
wow! that was a great video 🙂
Stupidest thing I have ever seen. I’m dumber for having watched it.
If I paid good money to go to the movies (since for us to go to the movies it requires getting a babysitter at 12.00 and hour, plus another 30 for the tickets) and had to sit through that shit, I would have been pissed.
They clearly rented out the movie theatre. Don’t the other people all come down and hug her at the end? It was a very staged production. The person sitting next to her was miked, etc.
That was why I was so snarky (perhaps a bit overboard, I edited it a touch this morning). It was clearly a full on media production and the guy is emailing people trying to pretend they had no idea anyone would watch…
If they didn’t want anyone to watch they wouldn’t have posted it on UTube. I am amazed that 26+millions people watched this. People must have very boring lives. I had never even heard of them till you posted the video and his email to you. Still don’t get what he is trying to achieve by contacting you-but maybe you are a lot more popular and well known than I know.
I could not even finish it. Did not want partially digested chinese food on my keyboard. Maybe I’m just a bitter bitch but people seem to not be able to be happy unless there are witnesses to their happiness.
You just let that man have it! He tried it, no shade. People are willing to do anything to get famous these days.. F**k the fame, they can have that sh!t.. Show me the coins!
*sigh* I live in the same ‘city’ these wannabe stars. I hope no one picks this up.
Oh boy, almost afraid to speak my mind here, lol. Actually I loved the marriage proposal. I am an old biddy about to hit the 30 year marriage milestone and I like sappy over the top shit like this. Took a lot of creativity to come up with that number and watching her reaction was priceless. I think a ton of their friends were in on the show and were in the seats higher up. I did see some other folks, strangers I assume come down and walk out the door (screen left). My guess is that this was in the trailer of stuff that shows after and before the start.
What I don’t get if they have access to a top of the line production company why not just come to you, thank you profusely for your role and offer you a gratis investor share in their proposed new production. Think I would get tired of just wedding proposals but could watch other type of surprises to kids, sick and dying people, etc.
Way I see it, they are trying for a version of Catfish just on a different topic.
She was “in on it” too. Do you really believe that this was a big surprise when there was a camera on her the entire time? Her “reaction” was just part of the script.
25 million views on utube and they send the link to a blogger???? Makes no sense.
No offense to you T-you are a very well known blogger.
This is so fake. There was a camera on her the whole time, and she didn’t know what was going to happen? Yeah, right.
What a colossal waste of time…pimp much, Ginny and Matt?
The grammar… Lord have mercy. 30 minutes south of ATL? Proof positive why the Clayton county (or whatever it is) school system had its accreditation revoked.
