Audition tapes

In order to compete in Total Drama Island, potential contestants send in audition tapes. All of them can now be seen at Cartoon Network's official website. Gwen and Owen are the only campers whose audition tapes are not shown (this is ironic because they are the campers in the final two). Leshawna's friend, Jasmine, tries to audition for Total Drama Action.

The audition tapes were shown in the DVD as an extra (being called cast interviews). Izzy's video with Chris was also included in the set. Some auditions such as Courtney's and Tyler's were left out.

Beth
For her audition, Beth, too, performs a song. She sings about boys, and Beth's father asks her what's going on. She responds "Nothing", and tells the camera that she'll be a star. In the TDI Rundown on Cartoon Network, the audition tape is shortened to just the singing.

Bridgette
Her friends, mostly guys, cheer her on while she attempts to whistle "Yankee Doodle" through her nose. After claiming she sucks, she then explains she is a good friend and will try her best and either win with integrity or leave with her head held high.

Mr. Coconut
He's sitting by the sea shore on a beach chair and then falls off. It is odd that he has an audition tape due to him being built in Camp Castaways, one of the last episodes.

Cody
After checking to see if the camera is on, he goes over to an electric keyboard and does a horrible rendition of a rap song (about girls, of course.) About midway, Cody's father tells him to stop making such a racket (again.) He assures himself that his father doesn't seem to see his "talents." He says that he'll be a big star someday. Even bigger than someone, but the video ended before we could find out whom.

Courtney
Courtney tells the camera that she is running for student council president. She promises to conduct herself with honor and integrity if she wins, and then accidentally mixes up her two speeches by promising to donate two new pop machines for the cafeteria. Then she says "oh" and a swear word (because apparently she got her two speeches mixed-up), and argues with the cameraman when he refuses to tape a re-do. In the TDI rundown on Cartoon Network, she just says "Oh." instead of saying "oh (bleep)".

DJ
DJ is telling about reason's he would thinks he could win and says he was raised right by his mom. He then cries about his mom and ends the video.

Duncan
Duncan is seen talking about his qualities while climbing down the wall of the juvenile delinquency hall he was staying at. But as soon as he hits the ground, he gets hit by a search light, the alarm goes off and gets chased by guard dogs.

Eva
We cut to Eva as she finishes the last four of 60 chin-ups. Upon getting down from the rail, she goes on to explain that she's the only girl in her school who can do more than 10 of them. Because of which, she tells them that she can handle anything that the producers throw at her, to which, appropriately enough, someone throws a basketball at her. She responds by chasing down the unlucky gym-goer &amp; beating him up. Cutting to later that day, she tells them to pick her because she says that she's a really strong competitor who gets along with everyone. She then asks the camera guy to edit the tape; the camera shakes up and down (meaning "yes") and she thanks him.

Ezekiel
After confirming that the camera's rolling, Ezekiel tells it that he's going to shoot a moose. He blows a carefully and ingeniously crafted moose caller (a kazoo),and hears a rustling in a near by bush. He takes out a bow and arrow, and lets it go (out of aim, no less) with a satisfied look on his face. Then he hears a woman screaming, and rushes in horror to help her. Apparently, he had just realized that he'd accidentally shot his mother.

Geoff
Geoff is sitting on a lawn chair at a "typical weeknight" party with a couple hundred of friends. He goes on to saying that life is over very quickly, and that you need to enjoy it well by throwing a party every day of the week.

Harold
Harold shows everyone his scout badges and then he plays his keyboard, which promptly falls over. The audition ends in darkness with Harold's wheezing in the background.

Chef Hatchet
Chef is mopping the floor of the main lodge. As he's doing that, he's complaining about how his life has turned out.

Heather
Heather walks out of the shower with a towel and starts talking about how she will not be nervous if she was on the show. She also talks about how pretty she looks, and she adds that if they pick her, she promises high ratings. She then throws off her towel, off-screen.

Izzy
Unlike the other campers, Izzy has two audition tapes. In Izzy's first audition tape, she explains to the camera some things that she feels they should know about her. She claims that she's loyal, intelligent (she claims to be a certified genius), and that she can masterfully twirl fire batons (Which explains the parade outfit she has on). She eventually sets off the sprinkler system. In her second audition tape she stated two talents she has - rolling her eyes up in her head and wrapping her tongue around her head.

Justin
Simply an 11 second, black and white video of him on the beach holding a washed up starfish, letting the water drip on him, while a dolphin washes up on shore as well. All the while, a deep voice repeats his name three times.

Katie and Sadie
This audition is shown in two parts, one for each of them. In Katie's Part, they are shown doing 80s dances to 80s techno music (the same one shown in Not Quite Famous.) Things go well until Katie spins a little too much towards the camera, resulting in accidentally knocking it down. The music goes out at this point (as does Katie.) In Sadie's part, the music starts back up, and Sadie picks the camera back up. She and Katie (who, by now, has regained consciousness) do a mock pillow fight. Katie knocks Sadie lightly, and they share a laugh. Sadie accidentally knocks Katie unconscious again; she turns off the camera.

LeShawna
LeShawna is shown holding onto her cell phone waiting for the TDI producers to give her a call, after listing why they should pick her. When they don't call immediately, she yells that she doesn't have all day to wait on them.

Lindsay
Lindsay is sitting on her bed with her dog, listing all of her qualities &amp; talents. She says she's pretty, smart, and she gets along with everyone (even ugly girls). She admits she loves camping even though she's never gone. She has bikinis for every season ( even the ones not listed on the calendar). She says she's " Bilanuagall" and claims to speak fluent English and American (which are basically the same thing).

Noah
After introducing himself, he tells the camera that they don't know him yet, but they will because he's going places. He tells them about a plan that involves his smarts, saying that it's what wins in the end. He'll win with absolute ease. Incidentally, an apparent friend of his, known only as Joey, congratulates Noah on winning Class President, saying he deserves it.

Trent
In his audition, Trent sings a song while playing the guitar in a recording studio. He later then says "Ah, crap." after a string broke.

Tyler
Standing on a football field, he explains to the producers that the thing that they need on the show is a real athlete, and that he's their man. He then proceeds to show them some of his "athletic skills." First he tries to throw a football; he trips over his duffel bag. Next, he tries to do a high dive into a pool; he belly flops. Finally, he tries to do a slam dunk, but instead he leaps into the pole and the ball lands on his head.
