Talent contests come and go. X Factor, Britain's Got Talent. American Idol. But it's not often that one of your own has a chance of a little stardom and when that happens we should pull out all the stops to help.
Britain's top dance music radio station Kiss 100 has decided to let the public decide who should be its next presenter. The station has asked: "Who do you think should be the Kiss Chosen One?"
We think it should be our very own Annaliese Dayes, a blogger on The-Latest.Com since she was on Britain's Next Top Model. She is bright, bubbly and ready for her zany talent to explode on the airwaves.
Out of thousands of entrants, Annaliese has made the final 10 after a long and tough selection process.
She has less than a week to get as many people as possible to "like" her profile page on the Kiss website.
Vote before Sat 19th February for the chance to get your hands on a BlackBerry Smartphone.
