The first contest winner of the "Claim to Fame" contest, established in 1999, was Jared Padalecki.

Padalecki could walk away with his own surfboard this year for "Supernatural", which is nominated for Choice Breakout Show.

From now until Thursday, Aug. 11, ballots are available on-line at TeenPeople.com, MySpace.com, IGN.com and FOX.com.
