Well today was my big day for my head shots! I am not going to lie and say I was SO nervous! Normally I am thrilled when I get tagged in photos on facebook (even though I un-tag about 75% of them - it's like altering your appearance, not physically, but to the cyber world - Heidi should have just done that).
After getting my makeup done, they immediately started shooting. I did three separate looks and I think they all turned out well but I won't really get to see them until tomorrow. I got a chance to analyze some of them after each shoot and it's amazing to see how you translate onto camera. I noticed that my one eyebrow is naturally higher then the other, I have really small eyes and an extremely round head. How great. Well as I was critiquing myself from shoot to shoot I realized all I was really doing was tearing myself down and I wasn't feeling any better about myself as the day went on. But then I realized that if I started doing that to myself then there was no room for anyone else to do it. Now you might be thinking that what I just said is even more twisted then breaking down every inch of what I think is some sort of dis-morphia, but in this business there is ALWAYS going to be something wrong with you that you can't fix (or choose not too - Heidi has permanently scared me out of all plastic surgery, so thank you 'my-size-bride-barbie'). All of these things that I might not like, someone will and maybe what I have is what someone is looking for in a role - apart from my acting skills. So to conclude my day, I like myself as is. I may have large cheeks for all grandparents to squeeze and invisible lashes without mascara - BUT I have great hair and I am a natural blonde so SUCK. ON. THAT.
I really tried to make this blog PG rated but I couldn't think of a better sentence to end that little monologue with. My apologies, mother.
Last night I went out to celebrate Bradley Cooper's ex-girlfriend's birthday - sigh, life can be so hard sometimes - which was a lot of fun. We had a group of girls get together with a handful of cupcakes which no one ate (welcome to LA) and headed off to the bar... OK, well I was the only one who ate a cupcake but it was the size of a two bite brownie, so sue me. Anyways, the only point to this story is that I saw MCLOVIN from Superbad out! He really looks the exact same in person. And he looked very Canadian in his plaid shirt considering everyone else was in a blazer of some sort - WOO representing! I don't know why I thought it was so funny, but I figured I would share it with all of you anyways.
Tomorrow I have my dad coming out to visit me which I am so excited for! Until next time! Also, all of you should download the song in the title of this post. It is hilarious.

ReplyDeleteI really enjoy reading your blogs and think that despite not necessarily first hand being aware of your talent singing/acting or even modelling by just the judge of your mere articulation in these blogs shows off your personality and with that alone I know you are going to be successful.
Keep it up and I hope you soak up every last minute of your Hollywood experience because at the end of the day that is what it is an experience. I mean how many people at your age can say they had the opportunity to go out there for so long ?
PS: Update on the Glee ? Really hope you get on that show - I feel if someone makes an appearance and does a truly great job - only good things can come of it !
Good luck and just keep being you !
PPS: Sorry this is an essay but I do hope you like comments as much as getting tagged on facebook !
