 * (13:37:46) Adela Lupșe: I chose journalism because I was always attracted to the media field,I thing television is the most "interesting phenomenon" that the modern days gave us
 * (13:38:21) KV: why most interesting?
 * (13:39:53) Adela Lupșe: well at least for me ,for my typse of personality,I find it impressive-the power that television has worldwide
 * (13:40:30) KV: so when you began university, did you know you wanted to present on television?
 * (13:40:38) Adela Lupșe: it's fascinating to realize how much television influences our life
 * (13:41:06) Adela Lupșe: definetely
 * (13:41:12) Adela Lupșe: I knew it before university
 * (13:41:29) KV: how old were you, when you knew it? How did television influence your young life?
 * (13:43:16) Adela Lupșe: I started realizing what I want to do in my highschool years. :) television influenced me and it keeps on doing it, i dont think only me! we dress like the people that television promotes

 * (13:44:46) Adela Lupșe: ok
 * (13:44:46) KV: oh, please, it is good if you go on :)
 * (13:44:56) Adela Lupșe: nooo iss OK!:)
 * (13:45:05) Adela Lupșe: just wait!
 * (13:45:15) Adela Lupșe: I was a reporter for a local tv station on the news department/health
 * (13:45:55) KV: was that in Oradea or another town?
 * (13:46:04) Adela Lupșe: in Oradea!
 * (13:46:51) KV: so, direct from university, you became a reporter...how did you come to present your call-in show?
 * (13:48:35) Adela Lupșe: before the call-in show I was a participant in a national reality show! and after this I was asked to do a casting. for my curent job
 * (13:48:57) KV: oh, what kind of reality show? Something like Big Brother?
 * (13:50:28) Adela Lupșe: more or less, it was called "daughter-in-law for mom"
 * (13:50:34) KV: we have all kinds of these shows now -- shows where people live in a house, shows where people eat insects, shows where people pretend to go to the moon...
 * (13:51:09) KV: this was a show where they try to find a husband for a mom's son?
 * (13:52:52) Adela Lupșe: yes,something like that-I'm not sure if "mom's son" defines the type of guys there but anyways moms were very involved in the selection process
 * (13:53:29) KV: and in this show, did you find a boyfriend, a husband, something like this?
 * (13:55:32) Adela Lupșe: actually my goal from the start was not to win this thing or to find someone. I wanted to get some attention and get people to know my face
 * (13:56:17) KV: Ah ;) Why do you want this attention, just to become famous, or to influence people, or something else?
 * (13:58:12) Adela Lupșe: I want this attention because I'm aware of the fact that it is not easy to enter this world!  and I was doing all this in order to increase my chances to get my dream job in television
 * (13:58:38) KV: ah! and this call-in show was the next step to the dream job?
 * (13:59:47) Adela Lupșe: I can say that this is a period in my evolution -a period that currently I enjoy a lot!
 * (14:01:16) KV: so it was from this reality show, Daughter-in-law for Mom, that you were hired for the famous call-in program...tell me, what was a normal day on that program like?
 * (14:01:32) Adela Lupșe: wow:)
 * (14:03:09) KV: yes? Exciting show?
 * (14:05:20) Adela Lupșe: it was just like a normal day in anyone\s life.    the only different thing was that we had camera's on and we were all competing for the same goal(but this can apply for the normal life also  )
 * (14:05:39) KV: competing? To get more people to phone in?
 * (14:06:53) Adela Lupșe: I thaught you meant the reality show, sorry
 * (14:06:57) KV: ah, I see
 * (14:07:05) KV: no, I meant the telephone show :)
 * (14:07:19) Adela Lupșe: ahh ok
 * (14:07:20) Adela Lupșe: sooo;;)
 * (14:08:14) Adela Lupșe: Well definetely it is more exciting than it looks!!! I will describe you a normal day at work.
 * (14:08:28) Adela Lupșe: one hour and a half before the show I'm in the make-up room
 * (14:08:39) KV: OK :)
 * (14:09:18) Adela Lupșe: after I'm done with hair and make-up I go down to the studio for the before the show talk to the producer
 * (14:10:02) Adela Lupșe: and then is the result that anyone gets to see
 * (14:11:33) KV: how many hours a day are you in front of the television camera, for this show?
 * (14:12:07) Adela Lupșe: it depends on the day
 * (14:12:33) KV: what is typical?
 * (14:12:42) Adela Lupșe: I work for more that 1 channel
 * (14:12:49) Adela Lupșe: maybe somewhere between 1hour and 4 or 5
 * (14:13:09) KV: 4 or 5 hours, wow. And no script, you must make up what you say as you go?
 * (14:15:19) Adela Lupșe: definetely there is no script! everything that you see comes out spontaneosly during the show. :)
 * (14:15:57) KV: how do you feel, when you're on the show? Is it exciting, tiring?
 * (14:17:50) Adela Lupșe: for me it's always exciting. I enjoy it very much! :);;) If I'm tired at the end of the show it means I've done a good show. But I'm never tired during the show :*
 * (14:18:31) Adela Lupșe: another alls
 * (14:19:25) KV: And often, you seem very excited on these shows -- would you say that this clip is typical? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oo3IfRGKGAM
 * (14:22:38) KV: that is ordinary?
 * (14:23:29) Adela Lupșe: yes,I could say that it is typical. I'm always excited when I\m about to give big prizes!

 * (14:23:42) KV: yes, give or award
 * (14:24:32) Adela Lupșe: it is ordinary ,definetely

 * (14:25:57) Adela Lupșe: ok
 * (14:26:03) Adela Lupșe: ask me??
 * (14:26:20) KV: was there anything different about that day? About how you felt?
 * (14:28:02) Adela Lupșe: there was nothing different!. for me it was just a normal day at work
 * (14:28:45) KV: you had your hair and makeup ready, you talked to the producer, you went on camera, all ordinary.
 * (14:29:37) Adela Lupșe: exactely
 * (14:29:58) KV: and you were presenting the program, people were calling in...
 * (14:31:45) Adela Lupșe: just a regular day! :) I had a very big prize that day. maybe that was the reason why I got so excited:);;)
 * (14:32:09) KV: what was the prize?
 * (14:32:55) Adela Lupșe: it was 1500 the romanian currency
 * (14:33:48) KV: So. If it was a typical day...what happened?
 * (14:35:21) Adela Lupșe: the final hint was on the screen and it was time to hear the answer-that's all
 * (14:35:48) KV: That's all.
 * (14:35:55) Adela Lupșe: this all!
 * (14:36:00) Adela Lupșe: or u ask me??
 * (14:36:13) KV: well...I don't speak Romanian, so maybe I am missing some meaning.
 * (14:36:31) KV: How did you feel, then, when you began shouting? Many people have said you seemed angry...
 * (14:37:24) Adela Lupșe: I was just involved in the moment! people have different opinions:)
 * (14:38:02) KV: You weren't angry at all?
 * (14:38:40) Adela Lupșe: i would rather use the word excited
 * (14:38:59) KV: Even when you put your foot on the telephone.
 * (14:40:40) Adela Lupșe: even then, the whole moment was just my way to express my excitement!.
 * (14:41:14) KV: All we in most countries have seen is those two minutes. What happened afterward?
 * (14:42:53) Adela Lupșe: well the show went on ,I got my winner and moved on!
 * (14:43:25) KV: everything else was normal?
 * (14:44:07) Adela Lupșe: everything was normal
 * (14:44:29) KV: what was the first sign you had that something was unusual?
 * (14:46:18) Adela Lupșe: the fact that I saw this cut from the show on mtv russia or ukraine:d
 * (14:47:46) Adela Lupșe: soo??
 * (14:47:48) KV: What did that feel like?
 * (14:49:30) Adela Lupșe: It was...interesting but I didnt take it as a big deal:d. there were videos of mine on youtube before that one!
 * (14:50:08) KV: And you did not lose your job?
 * (14:51:45) Adela Lupșe: of course not-people can see me on tv every day;;)
 * (14:52:19) Adela Lupșe: even this morning I had a show
 * (14:53:00) KV: So what did you do when you found that over 1 000 000 people had seen this video of you?
 * (14:54:04) Adela Lupșe: this is a pretty impressive number-i have to admit i was happy:)
 * (14:55:29) KV: What do you think, though, about some of the things they say, like "crazy"?
 * (14:56:53) Adela Lupșe: I think it is normal that people have prejudicies ,everyone is free to express his opinion in the same way that I;m free to do my job the best that I can!:)
 * (14:57:21) KV: you are not hurt by it?
 * (14:59:08) Adela Lupșe: I'm hurt if my family is unhappy with people's comments but I think I gain the wisdom to ignore the negative feedback!:0;;)
 * (14:59:47) KV: was your family unhappy?
 * (15:00:28) Adela Lupșe: unhappy with some of the comments
 * (15:02:18) KV: that's too bad :(
 * (15:02:53) Adela Lupșe: indeed:)
 * (15:03:52) KV: The most common thing people say on the Internet about you is "crazy" -- but the second most common is "sexy". How do you feel about being seen like this?
 * (15:06:13) Adela Lupșe: I think also I'm a little bit carzy so it's all good:)
 * (15:07:05) KV: and a little bit sexy too?
 * (15:07:51) Adela Lupșe: what do you think?
 * (15:08:22) KV: I think that maybe, as a journalist, I shouldn't say ;)
 * (15:09:43) Adela Lupșe: you can express your opinion as a man also :)
 * (15:10:19) KV: I think after the interview I will express it :-D
 * (15:11:00) Adela Lupșe: you're professional-I respect that
 * (15:11:44) KV: So how has it changed your life, being so well-known on the internet? I've seen that you have had some interviews with television and radio in Romania.
 * (15:13:55) Adela Lupșe: yes,indeed I was invited in some tv shows in Romania and Hungary and people were able to see that I'm a normal,fun to be around person
 * (15:14:00) Adela Lupșe: what has changed?! not much,maybe just the fact that people recognise me on the street
 * (15:14:08) KV: does that happen often?
 * (15:14:53) Adela Lupșe: prety often ,yes:)
 * (15:15:33) KV: Does it help you get your dream?
 * (15:16:52) Adela Lupșe: I certainly hope so
 * (15:17:16) KV: and what is that dream? What will Adela Lupse be doing in five years?
 * (15:18:47) Adela Lupșe: She will have her own talk show in a national channel:)
 * (15:20:43) KV: OK :) This is the main part of the interview done, I will have a few more questions in a minute. Is there anything else you'd like to talk about for the news?

 * (15:32:58) Adela Lupșe: sounds good
 * (15:33:14) KV: Good :)
