CELEBRITY Q AND A: SIGOURNEY WEAVER.



Data Hard:Wow, you look like Sigourney Weaver.

Sigourney Weaver: (she smiles knowingly)

Data: It's probably because of your hair (Weaver's quintessential red-haired, sophisticated, exec look.) 

Weaver: It's probably because...I'm so tall (she's 6 foot even.)

Hard nods head in agreement

Weaver: Or the fact that I usually have Aliens around me. Or monsters (an illusion to her recent hit Cabin in the Woods.She played a Catherine Parker (Working Girl) type gal-trying to save the world,through murder.)

 
We both laugh at her gracious sense or humor.

Weaver: What's favorite movie of mine?

Data: I loved her Galaxy Quest. (Note: I'm so nervous, I start referring to her in the third person.)

Weaver: (confused, but intrigued) Why?

Hard: It's the only time in career, she went blond.

Weaver: (The queen of Sci-Fi blushed a bit.) The Star Trek fans are the best and most loyal in the world!
Are you a Trekker?

Data: Yes

Weaver: Oh,who was my co-star in that one? 

Hard: Tim Allen.

Weaver: That's right. Hey I know what you'd like to do? Hi-Ya!




Weaver (in jest) strike a karate ready pose.We both both laugh charmingly.

Weaver: We had a great time making fun of it.

Hard: For Trekkers: You guys did with love.You didn't go in with a ,here's why Trek sucks attitude.You respected us and that made it possible- to laugh at the show's silliness and structure (60's era mainly.) 

Weaver: (impressed) My favorite of hers (mockingly) is Gorillas in the Mist.

Data: She almost won an Oscar for that,didn't she?

Weaver: (She shoots back sullen and angry eyes at me) Yes, She almost did. (Flares nostrils)

Weaver did win two Golden Globes (no pun intended) for both ...Mist and Working Girl,back in 1988.
The first actress to win twice in one year.

Weaver: I really admire her strength and determination... to do the right the things for those Gorillas.

Data: That was Dian Fossey wasn't it?

Weaver nods approvingly.

Weaver: Well, times flies when- you're being talked about, like you're not even there. (smiles) I hope to see this at your website. You did a good job.

Data is shocked that she's even heard of me.

Weaver: I'm paying you compliment.

Hard smiles and nods thankfully.

Weaver: (magnanimously) I've got to go, (wide smile) Good Bye.


Factoids: WikiPedia.

Damon uses his smart phone, to confirm the statement.

Damon: (as the ball is slam dunked) Damn. See Ya!

Russell Crowe: I am NOT Liam Neeson.I'm Russell Crowe. I heard every thing you guys said- behind that maze there.

The two shocked, by the celebrity eavesdropper's statement.They are silent, wondering what to say to the acting Gladiator.

RC: You know, From A Beautiful Mind.

Our rep agrees with a knowing head nod.Dawn continues with her confusion,as she's never seen that film.

Crowe just smiles,looks at his expensive watch and said....

CELEBRITY Q AND A-
KATY PERRY: GENEROUS BITCH!
-Beverly Hills,CA

Last night at The Groove, Singer Katy Perry had stopped by to perform- at the freezing Al fresco mall. The stage was set,the spotlights were on, and the crowd waited with Glee, listening to her latest hits, like Firework and Last Friday Night.

Freeze was the optimal word,as the prickly artist decided, it was too cold to sing in the windy and chilly environment. Still, Russell Brand's better half decided on the fly- to sign auto graphs for her fans.

Unfortunately,there was no planning to this and the songstress was mobbed in a 360 fashion, with only a couple of suit and tie security guard for protection.

This reporter wanted an autograph from the pink pixie songbird,too. So, against better judgement, he went into the crowd with cell camera in hand and slowly made his way toward busty destiny.

As the fans screamed "I love you, Katy" and "You're the best Katy!,"...I became angry with being crushed on every side by people and watched a guy who tripped to floor and almost got trampled by the teen girls around him.

So, I said jokingly, "Bring more security with you Katy!" and got a brief laugh. Katy was singing away and responded "Hey you, in the black jacket. My security is right there.So, watch it!"

I felt she was being a bit of a bitch and I continued, "Next time, get a table (for signing) and have them (the fans) form a line.This is Ridiculous." Another round of agreeing laughs broke, from the crew. Katy flashed an icy smile and said,"Maybe next time, I have them (security) look for you."

After a few minutes, Katy signed my copy of AFTRA magazine (it was all I had to use.) Perry said, "AFTRA magazine? I don't know what this is,but I'll sign it." I told her Thank You and got the hell outta there. Then, she yelled" I like your website,even though you called my husband Skeletor, last week."

Note: Video footage was TOO grainy and scratchy sounding to use.
