Becoming an Actress Like Me

I’ve lost count of the number of times my friends have asked me how to become an actress. And the first thing I want to say is don’t believe the hype! It’s not all it’s cracked up to be – It’s HARD WORK! By that I mean it’s hard work to make it, and it’s just as hard to maintain your career once you are at the top. We actresses work long days and nights and there is a lot of time away from family and friends.

That said it can also be fun and the money is good! Not to mention all the people that want to be my friend just because I’m famous!

So here ae my top tips for becoming an actress:

1. Take acting classes. If you want to learn how to get into acting learning from professionals is advised
2. Go to LA or New York. It’s best to be where the action is if you can.
3. Get an agent or publicist. This can really, really help as they know the ropes and the people in the industry – they know what productions are on the horizon -they will want a cut of your profits though
4. Audition, audition, audition. You may be discovered on the street but it is more liekly you will be found if you go to auditions
5. Make a résumé. If you have been in theatre work ot TV commercials then make a résumé to take with you to your auditions
6. Be prepared to be rejected. All of the great actresses have been rejected once or twice or a hundred times.
7. Stay positive. You need to keep your chin up.

If those tips are not enough for you there are some other good guides on how to become an actress that you could check out – some of these go into more detail.

The bottom line folks is stick at it! You can live your dream.

Michael Jackson – The Legend Lives On

I was hanging out with one of my girlfriends the other day and she has a young boy who is about 10 years old I think. We were just sitting there having a coffee and a chit chat when this young kid comes up and says “Mom I want to be like Michael Jackson – can I get a Michael Jackson costume?”.

I was just blown away, Michael Jackson was an icon of my generation, but sadly I thought he had been almost forgotten in recent years. It seemed the whole world turned their back on him when his life got tough, only to exclaim “Michael was the king of pop!” when he died recently.

I find this attitude troubling, human nature I guess, but still, wouldn’t it have been nice to have shown him how we felt when he was still alive?

Anyway, I couldn’t help myself, I jumped straight online to see if we could find this young man an outfit so he could dress up as his new hero. And low and behold up comes Michael Jackson costumes for kids.

This is going to be one happy kid I can tell you – we ordered right away.

I’m just really happy that the younger generation still love Michael the way some of us always did.

Learning Guitar for a Left Handed Person

A friend of mine decided she wanted to learn to play guitar the other day and I thought this was really cool, I had an old guitar and thought she might like to use that to get started with.

I pulled it out and handed it to her and suddenly we both realized she was left handed and my guitar was made for a right handed person!

Oh my – I had never considered this before. I mean you don’t have left handed clarinets and saxaphones do you?

Anyway, we were just pondering what we should do and if they even made guitars for left handed people when I decided to search Google and see what I could find on this topic. Would you belie it! I found an awesome site all about the technique of playing left handed guitar on a right handed guitar!

So it is possible and my friend has already learned a few chords! It will be a while before she’s ready to go on stage though

I still don’t know if it’s better for a left hander to get a guitar that’s made for them?  But there surely have been some famous left hand players such as Jimi Hendrix and Paul McCartney! Being left handed certainly wont stop you from being great!

Celebrities Rally To Help Jimmy Kimmel F**k Ben Affleck

If you haven’t watched this video yet you have to watch it now!

This is quite possibly the most original and groundbreaking film ever to come out of Hollywood. 10 years ago celebrities would not have neen seen dead in a clip like this but today we are so much more open minded. It gives me faith that humanity is evolving.

How many celebrities can you spot doing a cameo in “Jimmy Kimmel is F**king Ben Affleck”?

I counted 15, can you do better? leave a comment.

The Coolest Shades Under The Sun

John Lennon Sunglasses

My big question for today is “what are the coolest sun glasses?”

Well in my book they are still John Lennon sunglasses.

John Lennon made these glasses what they are today and we will always appreciate him for that, not nearly of course as much as we appreciate him for great tracks like “let it be”, but anyway… I digress.

Other cool sunglasses I rate are Ray-Ban Aviators, they are probably the all-time most popular sun glasses in existence.

Onassis Glasses, sometimes reffered to as Jackie O’s are also very popular.

Anyway I’m going to leave you today with one of the greates songs ever written – and yes he is wearing the glasses

DONUTS or DOUGHNUTS? both are so good with Coffee!

Coffe And Donuts

DONUTS or DOUGHNUTS? I think both spellings are correct, but it doesn’t really matter,  who could dispute that coffee and donuts go oh so well together!

You all know I’m really slim, and some of you may wonder how I keep this up when I tell you; I eat donuts with my coffee, and still I stay slim!

If you want to know what my secret is, well… ok… I’ll let you in on what I think helps keep me slim, I have my doughnuts and coffe in the morning and then green tea helps me lose weight, I drink some in the evening after a light meal, often I’ll just have a salad, sometimes some healthy Mexican food which I really love!

The green tea just helps my metabolism stay healthy, and as long as I don’t have the naughty stuff to late in the day then it pretty much all works out. Mexican food is great too – It’s pretty low in fat and generally quite healthy.

Spelling is a funny one though isn’t it… When we talk about dough we spell it d-o-u-g-h. So how did the spelling donut come about? its not a do-nut…

If anyone knows leave me a comment. My brain hurts now, I think it’s because my hair is blonde…
