about me celebs

10 Things you didn’t know about me …or maybe you did

1. I’m a perfectionist but I’m also really impatient. These two characteristics fight with each other on a pretty consistent basis.

2. I LOVE to dance and sing. And, I’m pretty good, if I do say so myself 😉

3. I was in a national Burger King commercial when I was 17, it was 1994

{see below & scroll to 2:42}


This is just part of the original commercial I did. I can’t find full-length version … I’m the one who says “Welcome to Burger King”

{I was also in a Secret deodorant commercial, a voice-over for a different Secret commercial, a Key Bank commercial with Anthony Edwards …and I think there was one more …but I can’t remember. Either way, I can’t find any of these digitally online. I have original copies on old VHS tapes only}

4. When I was a kid my mom used to take me to a park that I only know as “The Duck Pond”. We would bring a loaf of bread and feed the ducks. The memory feels like a movie now because I was so young.

5. I used to have really great handwriting …not that I’m bragging. I just used to really care about it …and now? I just want it out of my head and onto paper as quickly as possible before I forget it.

6. I have a LOT of energy. Like omg.

7. I got caught stealing underwear at the mall with a friend when I was 16. I learned about department store security. I also learned that behind every mirror in every dressing room is a camera. A camera watching you get undressed.

8. I crack my knuckles. I crack anything that will crack actually.

9. I’ve sung on stage with Britney Spears. Yes, it was only Karaoke. But there was a stage. lol. I worked as the Karaoke host at Dimples in Burbank Friday and/or Saturday nights where I drank far too much and made a complete ass out of myself. It was fun.


Left: Britney in black wig, Her friend?, Me.
All = drunk. drunk. DRUNK.

This is one of the MOST unflattering photos of me. I remember leaving the house that night unhappy with my outfit. I’m pretty sure I had my period too. Note the gold lamé tiger shirt. Yes, I still have it. I was trying to get my dyed red hair back to blonde. Also note. Britney is TINY! I am 5’7″ and an entire size bigger than she is {she’s at least 4″ shorter -but we were both in heels}. Like she could fit inside me. No matter how big she looks in photos or magazines …know that she is BITE SIZE! {this was 2001} …Olivia Newton John was there with her daughter that night as well. I almost forgot. I’m pretty sure we were singing a song from Grease here.

10. I am still most creative at night. If I could stay up all night and sleep all day {on the beach in the sun preferably without worrying about skin cancer} I would. FU society! 😉
