Celebrity Sighting #15 and #16

Wednesday night at The Vibe I met Amber Stephens from the TV show GREEK.  I actually thought she was an actual sorority girl but it turns out the show is scripted and none of it is real .
Friday night I went out with Alex and Tim.  We ended up meet this guy - I don't know if they knew him - and going back to his apartment for some drinks.  Turns out he played young Wormtail in the Harry Potter movies.  Super cool.

Celebrity Sighting #13 and #14

Last night Ryan his mom and I went to the Arclight theatre to go see Inception - of course because Ryan loves Leo and was super stoked after seeing him at the movie premiere last week.
When we got there both Ryan and his mom had to go to the toilet so I waited in the lineup to get popcorn and soda.  I noticed this couple beside me.  She was pregnant and he had his arms wrapped around her bulging belly.  I smiled to myself and thought of how beautiful this picture was.  I really wasn't paying attention to them,  I mean I was but not who they were,  I noticed his style, their wedding bands, she was pretty and how he just held on to her they just really brought a smile to my face.
I was looking over my shoulder for Ryan and his mom when I made eye contact with the guy and he got this look on his face like he was pissed off that I looked directly at him.  I thought it was a little weird - but things are weird in Hollywood so it was nothing new.  He looked really familiar,  I was wondering where I knew him from, and then it came to me.  I stole a another glance hoping he wouldn't notice just to make sure.  It was James Van Der Beek with wife Heather Mccomb (I had no idea who she was until I just googled him to make sure he was married and I didn't make another celebrity mistake lol).  Being here for five months I have learned to keep my cool,  I was so tempted to take out my iPhone and snap a picture but after that evil stare he gave me I didn't think a picture was the best way to go. Oh Hollywood how I love thee.
The movie was great.  Actually it was better then great, it was mind blowing go see it, one of the best movies I have seen in a really long time!!!

Celebrity Sighting #10 Cont. along with #11 and #12 - If you turn the Paige you will get a little Leo!!!

Remember my last blog where I wrote about this actor that came into my work but I couldnt remember his name? His name is Vince Schiavelli -  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PcS6gXEChbI . Or at least I thought he was Vince Shciavelli. When we talked about traveling I asked "didnt you travel with work?" "No, I worked for the phone company" "your not an actor?" "Everyone thinks I am Vince Schiavelli, I get it all the time." Apparrantly he gets it all the time, people who worked with Vince have come up to him and say "Vince! I haven't talked to you since we worked on (whatever movie)" To top it off these people that new vince do not even realize he passed away almost 10 years ago!!! So here I am thinking I have this great relationship with a retired actor who in the end isn't even alive. LOL. Only me. It's ok though I made a friend :) He comes in once a week to have dinner and talk about my travels.
A few days ago the Inception movie premiere was taking place on Hollywood Blvd. Red Carpet, Security, fancy cars, paparazzi and crazed fans (me being one of them) lined the streets. The first celebrity I (barley) saw (being short in a swamp of people doesn't make visibility easy) was Ellen Paige!!! But that wasn't who we were waiting for - mom your going to love this. Not having a good view Ryan and I found higher ground and a great view - of his favourite actor. Thats right LEONARDO DICAPRIO!!! HELLS YES. So cool. He walked the whole entire street signing autographs and saying hi to his fans. Pictures are in the album INCEPTION!!! It's a little hard to see but still visible, Enjoy!!!


PS the hostel I stay in has comedy night every Monday Night. MARLON WAYANS WAS ONE OF THE COMEDIENS. How cool is that. Too bad I was working LOL!!! Aww man gotta love it here!!!

Paulywood and a Dirty 30 in Vegas! and sighting #10

I know it has been a super long time but so much has been going on that I haven't had much time to write a blog. I have been super busy with my adventure here and have a lot to write so get comfortable.
Ok to start...about the second week of June Ryan and I got asked to leave the apartment.  It was too many people (4 people to a one bedroom) and just to loud all the time.  We had one week to move.  Ryan's mom was coming in from Australia so they were heading to Arizona and Paul was flying in for my Bday and then we were off to Vegas, so a week was really tight.  Ryan ended up staying with his mom when she got here so he was out on the Tuesday.  It was so upsetting.  This was the first time in 4 months that we had to spend 4 days apart.  LOL corny I know but it was really weird.  I had to sleep by myself haha.  Anyways it was okay because Paul flew out on the Wednesday for my Bday.
We had a blast.  It was so good to see him.  I couldnt stop touching his face lol. He said I talk really funny,k that I have an American accent now with Aussie slangs (all Ryan's fault) plus he thinks I have turned into a hardened bitch.  It's true my attitude has changed since living in Hell Aye.  He said I used to be so sweet now I'm mean LOL I guess we will see what you all think when I get back. The Thursday we did an LA City Tour.  It's a mini van with no roof and they take you all through LA to see famous peoples houses.  It was pretty awesome. We saw the houses of Doctor Phil (which was my favourite), Christina Aqguilara, Eddie Murphy, Playboy Mansion,  Michael Jackson, Julia Roberts - sometimes her kids are outside selling lemonade.  It's cheap lemonade too apparantly,  why would the children of a celebrity sell cheap lemonade you ask?  Because THEY DON'T KNOW SHE IS FAMOUS!!! I know right!  How weird is that.  We went by Courney Cox's house,  our tour guide said that "she doesn't seem to nice, that when they go by with the tour bus if she is outside she doesn't even wave, that she seems a little mean"  just as he said that we here from the front door "THATS RIGHT!" lol she heard him over the speaker too funny.
The next day Paul took me to universal studios.  Soo much fun.  We booked it through the hostel so we got a shuttle out there and back.  It was such a beautiful day out too so it really helped.  We went through the house of horrors which was sets and stuff from horror movies.  I HATED IT!!! Yes I know I am a horror movie buff and I always watch them, it doesn't mean I like to be in them.  They had people jumping out at us and werewolves,  frankenstein, crazy people with chainsaws, I screamed the whole way through and Pauly laughed histerically the whole way through.  We enjoyed Krustyland from the Simpsons, the best ride in the whole park, we even got to me Bart and Lisa.  We did the famous Tram Ride of the Studios which was super cool my favourite part,  we got to go through WhoVille!!! I was so excited. I was like " Pauly I always wanted to go to WhoVille"  It's really cool how all the buildings are totally fake and how in the movies they look so real.  They have one area that looks European city and all they have to do is change the language of the signs.  They show how they can flood a town and when they make it rain the put powdered milk in the water so it shows up better on camera.
We also did the Jurassic Park ride which was awesome, now I know where all the dinosaurs are living.  We did the Mummy's Tomb.  This awesome inside rollercoaster in the dark and then all of a sudden it goes backwards.  I screamed the whole way and shut my eyes until I realized opened or closed it still looked the same lol. We got back that day totally bagged and tired from the past two days but thought lets party.  I had moved into the hostel for the night because I had to be out of the apartment and we were leaving the next day.
I was so hurting the next day.  We drank till all hours of the morning and had to be up by 7am to go to the Greyhound for 9am.
So we get on the Greyhound and head to Vegas!  We had to transfer in Downtown LA.  Worst Greyhound experience of my life.  The bus was late meaning we boarded and left late.  Once we got on the bus I asked the bus driver if we were still going to arrive on time "I don't know maam"  "Well I am just wondering because we are running 20 minutes late"  "SO WHAT I'M LATE.  DO YOU WANT TO GET OFF THIS BUS RIGHT NOW AND WAIT FOR ANOTHER ONE! I HAVE NO PROBLEMS REMOVING YOU FROM THIS BUS.  I CAN'T FLY THIS BUS"  " I know that but your still late, what is your name?" "YOUR THIS CLOSE TO GETTING KICKED OFF SO EITHER BE QUIET OR YOU WILL BE REMOVED"   Can you believe that we hadn't even left the station.  The woman infront of me was just mortified she took down a bunch of info and was lodging a complaint.  Thats not all.  There were these two girls laughing on the bus and all of a sudden our Lionel Richie looking bus driver says "EXCUSE I LIKE THAT YOUR HAVING FUN BUT THAT IS TOO MUCH AND YOU ARE DISTRACTING PLEASE STOP LAUGHING"  oh it gets better.  We had a half hour stop and he starts talking about at 3hundred hours this and that, like we were in the army.  "If you are late and you knock on the door i will not open it for you"  Well lucky for everyone we all made it back early and on time.  As we get back out on the road again he comes on the speaker and says "PLEASE REMEMBER WHEN SPEAKING IT'S TO THE PERSON BESIDE, IF I CAN HEAR YOU, YOU ARE TALKING TOO LOUD"  I had enough at this point. I was shaking I was so mad.  We finally arrive in Vegas and 10 minutes early for that matter.  As I am getting off the bus he wanted to just move something so I wouldnt scratch my leg and as he is moving it he saids "I am going to move this so you don't hurt your knee I don't want you talking bad about a brother"  I started laughing " Oh, don't you worry I am lodging a complaint about you!" He didn't like this too much he started yelling at me across and cussing at me across the parking lot and then had the odasity and unprofessionalism to stand there and talk about me with employees of Greyhound.  I was so mortified, I couldn't stop shaking and I was so embarrassed.  ONe of the girls on the bus said she couldn't believe the treatment he gave to everyone on the bus and was going to lodge a complaint.  I haven't yet but I am hoping for a refund and some sort of credit as I am planning and traveling with them very soon and am second guessing their company.
Anyways!!! We finally get to our resort an hour after we got dropped off at the station.  THE FLAMINGO.  Our room was awesome, on the 25th floor with floor to ceiling windows that looked out over the resort.  The location of the resort was awesome too right in the center of the strip.   Ryan and his mom were meeting us out in Vegas.  They were staying at Circus Circus.  Ryan said they wanted to do dinner with us and then we could go out.
It was so good to see him.  I really missed him.  You don't really realize how close you are with someone and how much time you spend with them until you spend a few days apart.  Well his mom and him wanted to go to The Steakhouse for dinner for my Birthday!  My most favourite restaurant.  Mmmmmm it was so good.  The best prime rib in the world, I can still taste it.  I was sucking on the fat just to get every last bit of meat off haha.  After dinner we walked back to our resort.  His mom taps me on the shoulder and said "it's midnight" and gave me the biggest mom hug in the world.  It was so awesome!!!
We got back to the resort and his mom said goodbye and we began to enjoy the bottles of rum and vodka we had in our room.  Our buddy Ben - that we had met in Vegas in March (check out Our Arrival - Vegas) - came by and had a few drinks and left around 3 am.  Pauly passed out so Ryan and I decided to go next door to O'sheas - my favourite bar.  I left my ID in my room so the guy wouldnt serve me so we ended up just going back up to the room and calling it a night.
The next day we decided to spend the day at the pool and just chill.  There was the huge lagoon pool with a water slide which is beautiful but infested with under agers and kids and then there is the 21 and over pool which was $15 to get into (for the guys).  It was worth every penny.  A DJ all day,  a party in the pool,  big huge flamingo's surround the pool on pillars that shoot little waterfalls into the pool, free drinks, a couch area with a hookah, a bar, hot weather and all the palm trees had misters on them that sprayed out mist all day long to keep you cool.  I couldn't have asked for a better way to spend my birthday.  My best buddy and the most important person in my life right now and thats all i needed and to top it off Paul and Ryan are like peas and carrots.  They got along so well it was disgusting, it almost scared me lol but it was great.  I called my mom, it was my first birthday without her so I got a little teary eyed when I got off the phone but the party and the drinks helped.  We danced, we did the crab, the lobster and the dolphin, we drank, sang and just had an all around good time.
Ryan had to leave around 2 to go meet up with his mom.  He was so wasted he could barley walk straight LOL plus his shoes were up in the room and he refused to get them and wouldn't take my flip flops.  "Babe I will walk in barefeet I will be fine.  I will see you tonight"  kissed me and stubbled out of the pool area. Well turns out the pavement was so hot his feet blistered and he had to buy some flip flops lol, what a dork.  HIs mom didn't even know he was drunk, I have no idea how he pulled that off.
Paul and I ended up passing out in the room till about 11 that night, we were so bagged from the sun and drinking all day. We were barley up to going out but we got ready and started having a few drinks.  Ryan got back to our resort at about 230am and we headed out to the bar we always end up at the Piano Bar at New York New York.  So much fun.  We all dressed up and just sat and drank Red Bull Vodka all night.  It helped me as I wasn't feeling well, I had a bit of sun stroke so I was a little nauceous but the drinks helped.
Around 5am this girl comes strolling in and Paul said "watch this, she is working, watch what she does"  well he was right she was working "hooked a guy and they left walked into the casino but didnt get passed there because he walked away.  So she comes back and she starts chatting up Paul.  Oh god I'm thinking how are we going to get her to leave.  She was so trying to hustle him and get him to leave and then asks him if I was working Ryan!!! She thought I was a hooker!!! She honestly thought I was trying to work Ryan!!! I may have been dressed sexy but I was definatly dressed nice and did not look like a hooker.  How rude LOL!
We got up and left and when we got outside the sun was up and we realized it was like 7am and I am starting to feel better and ready to party.  As we are walking out a limo pulls up and I said "awww you showed up.  It's my bday did you forget to pick me up"  Well apparantly all the hustling I have learned on my adventure paid off because next thing you know we have a free limo ride back to our resort.  FUCKING AWESOME!  Perfect end to a perfect day.
Ryan left the next day and Paul and I went down to the pool.  We didnt stay too long as it was hot and I still wasn't feeling well. We really just slept and hung out all day and I had to leave the  next day.
I said goodbye to Paul and Ben drove me to the Greyhound station again.  Thank god my ride back was awesome I had no one beside me so I could stretch out and the driver was an angel compared to the last guy.
We still hadn't found an apartment so Ryan booked us back into the Bungalow in a 16 bed dorm LOL a lot of people but way cheaper then the other rooms.
Well Vegas made me broke.  Flat broke.  I could afford one night at the hostel and nothing more. Not a meal not even a ride back home.  Ryan and I talked the next day and decided that I needed to call home and ask my parents if they could buy me a ticket so I could come home.  We laid on the bed for awhile. I was bawling my eyes out.  We said our goodbyes to each other.  It was so sad.  I didnt wan't to let go of him.  He dragged me off the bed and said I'm taking you for dinner for our last meal.  "Okay, lets go to Mr. Pizza.  If the owner is in I can talk to him about work I dropped my info off yesterday maybe there is hope"
We get there and the owner wasn't in.  So we sat down at the table completely sad and depressed and talked about everything from the when we met up until now.  "Remember when I almost had to go home,  it was after the rave and I was broke and I almost had to leave?"  "Ya" I said "but then your phone rang and the smoke shop was calling you to tell you you got the job and you started the next day!  It was your miracle and you got to stay"  "Ya it was pretty cool"  " I'm still waiting for my miracle, I'm not ready yet to leave" I said. Just then at that exact moment my phone rang.  It was the owner of Mr Pizza telling me I got the job and I start that night!!  MY MIRACLE!!! Can you believe that.
So I am still here.  I am still at the hostel though unfortunatly not with Ryan.  He had to get an apartment.  Because I don't have much more time in America and I plan on continuing on in a month he really needed to find a place for himself because he is out here till January.  His place is awesome, right across the street from his work and it has a pool!  So we are planning a pool day this Saturday.  I'm not gonna lie, it's really weird not living with him.  It sucks coming home to an empty bed or not having someone to talk to about my day or their day :(  But I really do believe we need this separation.  It's gonna be easier when I leave.  So for now here I am in the smallest little room with 5 guys that are a hoot, though I am being moved to the other hostel tomorrow because I am a long termer.
Last but not least the other night an actor came into my work.  It's my 10th sighting.  He sat down at one of my tables and had dinner.  Now here is the thing he is one of those actors that you don't know his name or know off the top of your head what he has been in but when you see him your like "oh that guy"  so ya.  I can't even tell you his name which sucks but my dad really likes him haha.  I will find out one of these days and I will fill in the blanks lol.
Well I hope you enjoyed my update.  Please check out my two new photo albums on facebook - Paulywood and Dirty Vegas!!!  All the pictures are there.
Take care

Celebrity Sighting #9

So the other night for work I got sent to Koji's which is this sushi restaurant up on Hollywood Blvd that turns into a bar at night (one of my favourite places to work).
It wasn't busy at the begining of the night so I was just standing at the front door feeling out the crowd.  These three guys walk in and are all over my shots.  One of the guys looked familiar,  I thought he was someone from back home in Collngwood but I couldn't place him.  Well they bought some shots and asked me my name. "Emmie" I said "Like the award" one of them looked at the familiar guy and said "you lost 3 of those didn't you" "Ya" he said "I was nominated three times but never got one"  I just looked at him "I'm serious he said"  "thats ok, I can be your Emmy for the night" I said  "you can even hold me up"  "by the way" I continued "you look extremely familiar but I can't place your face or name"  " Dave Foley - comedian,  I was on Kids in the Hall"  "thats right, I actually thought you were someone from back home in Collingwood"  "Collingwood?  I went to CCI"  haha and then we stood there and talked for a half hour about Cwood.  It was awesome since no one here knows where or what Collingwood is.  It was a really awesome night and Dave is a really real person which is awesome because you don't get that a lot with people in LA.  And, to top it off I sold out of shots!

Loves it!!!

Dance Dance! With Celebrity Sighting #8 of a Wayans

Well the last time I left off I said I got a music video.  The music video was for Paper Streets ( the lead singer used to be in Dial 7).  They have this hip hop/rock/techno sound,  it's really great and fresh sounding, I can definatlley hear them being on the radio.
We practiced for two days.  The first practice was at this gym called Equinox out in Westwood which is on the other side of Beverly Hills and just as nice so you can imagine what this place looks like. WOW! I have never seen a gym like this.  Uniforms all black and the shirts said what you did.  Train, Yoga, Desk whatever you did people know.  It was all windows and bright colours with a clothing store as soon as you walk up the stairs.  You had to walk through the "green cafe" downstairs to get up to the second floor which is this huge reception area and then up another flight of stairs to get to the actual gym part.   A membership must cost more then what this trip is costing me.

Anyways we are upstairs rehearsing in one of the rooms when our choreographer Brianna says "don't you know who that is on the tread mill, its Marlon Wayans." Of course me a celebrity junky and going no wear without a camera in LA "just in case" pulls out my iphone and pretend I am making a call and sit there taking pictures of Marlon Wayans on the treadmill. I think he saw what I was doing because he started smiling but didn't get off the treadmill. I know it's not that clear but trust me it was him LOL.  How much does that suck though, the last thing I would want (if I was a celebrity) is some celebrity junky like myself taking photos of me while I am working out.  I am just as bad as the paparazzi HAHA!!!  WHATEVER!!! I LOVE IT!!! I'm in LA!!!
We had another rehearsal the next day and then day off and then the day of the shoot.
The video was being shot at Red Club in Newport Beach (yup the OC) so I was pretty excited.  I took a bus out to Studio City so Richie (dancer from the video) could pick me up and we could be on our way.
It was a Friday of the long weekend and a ton of traffic.  We were barley moving.  Apparantly the traffic is always like that on Fridays because nobody in LA likes to work on Fridays.  Must be nice lol.  The drive was long but really fun.  Richie's friend Ryan was with us and it was pure jokes the whole way to the club.  It was nice to be in a car with music joking around instead of on a bus listening to my ipod laughing at others lol.  We ended up getting to the club closer to 5 when we were supposed to be there at 4 and we left at just after 2.  The traffic was insane but we made it.

We shot for about 2 and a half hours and had to clean up and be out of there just before 9pm as the club opened at that time.  We cleaned up changed and went next door to this really nice Sushi restaurant for dinner where the director Barrette (our choreographer's boyfriend) bought us dinner. It was really awesome just getting to chill and meeting the band and the crew members plus eating after a full afternoon of dancing.  Dinner lasted about two hours and then we had to be back at the club to do a live shoot to get some shots of the crowd and us dancing. Well, the DJ wouldn't play our song because it was a cd and he wasn't using cd's so we had to do a live shoot to music that wasn't ours which is ok but most of our stuff was choreographed to the words so it was a bit of a challenge but we pulled it off and everyone was happy!!!
By the time we left it was almost midnight but the drive home was trafficless (does that word make sense? lol you get what I mean), so it only took like 45 minutes which was great.
I am getting a copy of the music video so you can all see it when I get home unless I am aloud to post it.  It felt so good to dance and the experience was awesome, can't wait to see the video

Case Dismissed - Celebrity Siting #7

Alright, well, Ryan and I saw Judge Judy! We were actually on the TV show as audience members. It was great and better to watch in person then on the TV, dad you would've loved it.
She is so little and looks exactly the same in person, and is she ever fiesty, it was so awesome we had a blast and it has been the best set we have been on so far. We get breaks, snacks, bathroom breaks and almost an hour lunch, and we enjoyed the cases. We definatley want to get on the show again.

Milking It!!! OH and Celebrity Sighings 4,5,6

Alright I know it's been awhile but I have been really busy.  I have been doing quite a bit lately and didn't have the best time to blog but now I have the time to update you on whats been going on.
My friend Suzanne and I went to the Hollywood Forever Cemetery.  It was so beautiful and absolutely massive and the tombstones probably cost more then all three of our cars put together it was insane.  There are some famous people buried there such as Charlie Chaplin, Griffith Griffith (founder of the Observatory - please read Our Beautiful Sky blog) and the guitar player from the Ramon's.  It was really cool walking around but you feel almost intrusive at the same time like you have to whisper; plus there was a funeral going on that day so we just kept our voices down.  We had a map of all the grave sites but we couldn't find Chaplin's we look for half an hour and then gave up and moved on.
Ryan and I have been doing some audience work for extra cash.  Last week it was three days of "Minute to Win It"  its' this crazy game show where they take house hold items and make these impossible games that you have to complete and you only have a minute to complete it.  The contestant has 3 lives and they are trying to win $1,000. Crazy! but you get so into it as an audience member.  YOu start cheering them on and it gets really intense because you have become really invested in the contestant and all you want is to see them win LOL! It was really exciting our first day walking into the studio and seeing the stage and all the big screens and what the set looks like.  They really make it look a lot bigger on TV then it actually is.  They have this huge archway that is made out of these huge tube things that light up, they almost remind me of waterslides ( I snuck a picture so it will be posted). They have a warm up guy named Bill that plays music and warms up the crowd and has contests for us when the crew takes too long.  One day they took long in between games because they were discussing whether or not they liked the colour of the ping pong balls or should they change them.  I didn't think it mattered lol but hey, the longer they take the longer I am there and I make more  :). Let me tell you though, after three days my hands were sore from clapping so much, but I met a bunch of people and made a new friend, Rachel, who I might ad is a dancer so I am super stoked about that.
On our first morning out to Studio City (where the show is filmed), Ryan and I met a girl on the bus  who gave us the contact for Judge Judy!  They pay for audience.  We are going on tomorrow morning.  LOL Judge Judith Schiendlen, it's going to be great we are looking forward to it so I will definately have to let you all know how it was.
I have been dancing again!!! I saw a posting on Craigslist for "Dancers Wanted" and I ended up getting accepted due to my dance background.  Man did it feel amazing to be in a studio, that is once I got to the studio.  Rehearsal's were to take place @ JV Dance Studio in Alahambra.  Ya thats about a 1.5 hour bus ride from where I am.  Well,  I really wanted to dance so I hoped on the bus around 8 (I missed the first one).  It wasn't bad until I started going through some really sketchy parts of LA.  Some parts were really pretty and all lit up and people walking around and then; dark, no pretty lights or houses and not that many people on the streets and I was the only white person on the bus.  You see in LA most white people don't take the bus especially in the area's I was going through so I get stared at a lot by the men, like I am fresh meat or something so it's kind of scary.  I kept asking myself "what are you doing you are crazy, it's getting dark, just hope off the bus and get one back home!!! You don't even know these people you are dancing for what if it's a scam!!!" Everything was going through my head but something told me to keep going.  I had to make a transfer to another bus, so i get dropped off at this bus stop in not the nicest area and it is already dark at this point.  There were a lot of people there so I felt better but I just kept my ipod on and focused on not making eye contact but of course that doesn't work and I have a young guy try and pick me up.  No matter how many times I mentioned "my boyfriend" it didn't work he still wanted to hang out.  He then proceeds to tell me that the big massive building across the street is the LA County Jail - the one Paris Hilton went to and then proceeds to tell me he doesn't want to go back.  "Just perfect" I'm thinking.  My bus finally comes and I make it safely to the studio and an awesome rehearsal.  It felt so good to be in a studio again!  It was like I was home, like a part of me was sleeping for the past 5 years and has been woken up again.  I can't even explain it just felt so good.  Anthony (the choreographer) could not believe I took the bus from West Hollywood and told me he lives around the corner and I can ride with him for the next rehearsal.  Thank goodness because I wouldn't want to go through that again.

THE SHOW:   The show was for Harvey Milk (the gay activist who was assissinated in the 70's - recent movie Milk with Sean Penn).  Harvey Milk Day has become a State holiday as of this year, and it takes place on his birthday.  It was on the rooftop of Madame Tussaud's in Hollywood!!! How fucking crazy is that.  What an honour.  It was the inauguration, and I was there.  We even got to walk the red carpet!! Thats right, THE RED CARPET. Coolest feeling in the world.  The people on the street thought we were famous they were just standing there watching while we stood on the carpet and got our pictures taken by the press.  I even met some celebrities.  Bruce Vilanche (Hollywood Square's  #4), and Darryl - #5 from Noah's Arch. It was probably one of these best experiences I have ever had.  Words can not describe what it felt like, and I am not just talking the red carpet I am talking about the whole thing. I never would of had this opportunity anywhere else without an audition so it was all overwhelming.  I was so nervous before we went on but I remembered everything! Yay me :)!  Oh and the beautiful men!  all so beautiful and all so gay. I was in heaven.  WE all know how much I love them.  It was A-Mazing!!!  Plus I met some dancers, mad new friends and got an audition for the next day.
I missed my bus but grabbed the next one and headed to the audition.  Pumped and ready to go because the previous night had given me faith in my dancing again so I decided why not.  Why not just stay home? should've been the real question.  I get there late but he brings me in anyways when he started the new section.  Ok, sweet, perfect I dont have to catch up.  Though catching on would've been a good thing.  I couldn't do it.  It was so fast I just couldnt remember the choreography, I was marking it so I would remember it and then he would move on to something else and then the next thing I knew he was putting us into groups.  HELL NOOOOO!!! I was so frustrated.  This had never happened to me before at an audition, I would freeze due to nerves but never not be able to catch on.  5 years is a long time without training and I am definately not up to par the way I was.  It's hard to pick up the choreography when it's been so long especially when you've gotten used to it. I didnt even have the choreography and they wanted to put us into groups and most likely do some cuts.  I really wanted to spare myself some embarassment. With my head held high and as brave as I could I walked up to the front and said " I am really sorry but I have not trained in five years and I just can't keep up with the speed you are going.  I need time to go over it.  I just can't keep up I'm sorry" and I walked out and started to cry. Not because I didnt get the audition but because I just couldn't keep up, it was so frustrating and I was really embarrassed.  Then realizing i left my shirt in there I had to go back in.  I grabbed it quickly and walked back out.  Still with tears in my eyes I put my bag on my shoulder and walked to the nearest 711 and got myself a coke slushy (one of my fav) and waited for the bus.  Now as much as this did suck and I was upset I still went and did it.  I may have walked out but I still showed up and gave it what I could.
Yet, when in doubt check Craigslist - which after I did after I called my  mom.  I found a posting for a music video.  They needed hip hop dancers for a music video shoot on Saturday.  So I sent in my pictures and my background and .........I GOT IT!!! We started rehearsals today.  No auditions there is no time so it's bonus for me and free dance classes.  It's not paid but I need it.  Plus I have time to go over everything.  Rehearsal rocked,  I felt alive after,  I can't explain how it makes me feel.  To top it off we were rehearsing at this super high end gym called Equinox in Westwood which is on the West Side of Beverly Hills, and I mean high end.  It's almost like a resort it's so nice.  Anyways there we are rehearsing and what do you know, we look over and there was Marlon Wayans #6 running on the treadmill.  HAHA I love LA, and yes of course I got a picture!!!
Well hope thats a good update. There will be more soon.  I miss you all very much and I have been a little homesick.  Writing these blogs makes me feel a little closer to you guys.  For those of you that do have twitter I am obsessed and always updating so you can add me at www.twitter.com/emmiejae

Famous Sighting #3

So my roommate Steve turns on the TV the other night and the channel that came on was some talk show and there is this man sitting at the table that I recognized. I said "hey, he comes into the club all the time" "Thats Lemme" Steve says "from Motorhead" "oh cool! What's Motorhead" I know there are a ton of you probably wondering how I dont know who or what Motorhead was but I do now and I also know that Lemme is the lead singer. I see him every weekend at the club, I even had a cigarette with him one night. Ha ha I had no idea!!! Sorry I have no pictures.

Lopedog and Dallas Daze

My dearest Dallas,

I know I was supposed to write you a plane letter but when I was planning on writing it we cooked up our last super and cried over a bottle of wine instead.  So here is your online plane letter/blog.  Besides I want everyone to see what you mean to me.

But where do I begin there is so much to say.  Well, you haven't been gone even a week and I miss you like crazy.  I cried a little on Saturday, I saw your stupid empty bottle of Ancient Age and started tearing so I went and put on your hoodie. Then at work they played Lady GaGa and had to hold back the tears.

Now enough about "you" lets talk about how I feel about "you." :)

So we met our first night in California and that was it, we were friends from that moment on. In such a short but important period of my life you have become one of my best friends.  You are one of the most amazing people I have ever met in my life.  Sometimes I wonder if you know how amazing you are but I think right at the end you were realizing it.  You are amazing, driven, committed and caring for everyone around you.  Not only have you grown as an actor but you have grown as a person and I am so proud of you in your accomplishments and know that you are going to do amazing things and I am very honoured to say that you are my friend.  You have helped me grow and given me a better understanding of myself and the relationships around me.  You are the male version of me, 9 days apart and both Gemini's.  Tough because we always want it to be about us and there are so many days I wanted to sock you in the face, especially while we were sitting at the bus stop and you wouldn't stop singing.  I told you I wasn't in the mood to listen so you being you turned your head leaned into my hear and started singing at the top of your lungs. LOL.  I so wanted to kill you but it was super funny and of course I couldn't help but laugh.  But spending time with someone who is so much like me made me realize and understand my relationship with my mom.  We get on eachother's nerves and fight like cat's and dog's and I always figured it was because she is my mom. But you have made me understand The Gemini and myself and I have come to realize that my mom and I are so much of the same person it's hard to deal with sometimes and I know that when I see her again our relastionship with her will be on a different level of understanding her as well as myself and I thank you for that.  (Don't cry yet, it's not the right time of the blog)

I have to find a new adventure buddy :(  I miss seeing your face everyday.  I haven't been to the hostel there is no point.  Who is going to sing songs and show tunes with me in unison at the drop of a hat.  Who can I quiz on movie lines: "Me!" "Excuse me officer don't you know who this man is?..."

I have so many memories with you that should never be forgotten.  Here goes.

Remeber: nasty burrito's, Mulholland Dr.,  the Hollywood Walk of Fame and never finding Madonna's Star, the fart book, the fart song,  missing iPod's and waking up with someone else shirt and then getting your socks returned washed, Marky Mark,  Boulevard 3 and not knowing what it looks like on the inside,  the fucking rooster, Ryan's singing rooster, noisy roommates (oh ya oh ya), Rum, Takaa Vodka the cheapest around, taste testing vodka in the bottler, Ancient Age or as I like to call it Aged Liver, "I can get u into any club but u have to pay", the hottest people in the bar, "Whats this song called?", getting drunk off of 3 rums and then u walking out holding urself saying u have to pee,thinking we saw Matthew McHonoghy and it was an imposter - we should've just taken the picture nobody would've known from the angle we were at, U Turns on the freeway ramp, not being able to make left turns, a treasure hunt that wasn't so fun, stealing shopping carts for groceries and taking it down Melrose, Troop Beverly Hills, a shitty promotion job, Lady Gaga, Telephone, the Melbourne Shuffle, the party room (we owned that room) or should I say your fishing grounds, speakers falling from the ceiling, pooping in the party room, MR. BIG HANDS (just imagine...), coming in wasted and letting us all know how the vodka made you feel, spitting in your sleep, waking up without pants and texting me asking why you have no clothes on, leaving your friends at the club, Zoltar - "I just want to be big" and getting a really bad fortune,  amazing talks, tears of joy, tears of sadness, RENT, the Pointer Sisters, watching the Oscar's in the Silent Theatre and leaving because we drank too much, singing our lungs out, Mac and Cheese, it's a buggy not a trolly, "They say that your buffet here is the cats meow", "Ughh", Friday night hostel parties, Anzac day tattoo's, Lopedog and Hawt Dawg, my new found Aussie slang, "Security", possessed choir boys, bed bugs, nights of tears due to my wine drinking, rum, vodka, to many cigarettes, job hunting well the attempt to job hunt and getting distracted, rum, always ending up with free food,  your beer collection, vodka, movie days in the party room, TUNA FIGHTS, "Good morning my love how are you?" "Still Gay!!!", afternoon naps, YO MAMMA, thanking your parents for having sex because they made such a great looking person, BOOBS!!! - I'm still waiting for you to tell us your straight, "Hi I'm Emmie, it's my first night in a hostel, whats your name do you want to be friends?"- who would've thought it would end up to be one of the best friendships, two of the best months I have ever had "Thank You."

I don't know what else to say except I love you and I can't wait to see you in February.  Like Ivana told you, spray yourself all over Australia, I know you will.  The movie industry doesn't know what's coming to them.  Be strong and remember who you are, you have worked hard and deserve everything that is coming to you.  I have tears in my eye's right now (this is where you can cry).  Don't forget I am your date to the Oscar's.  Take care of you and CALL ME!!! I love you sooo much and can't wait for the days that we will meet again.

Take care my love.

Cheers

Mates for life

Famous Sighting #2

I always have these dreams about meeting famous people. But I don't just meet them, I hang out with them and they know me by name and we become friends and the dreams happen at least once a month. The worst part is every time I go to take a picture with them I don't have my camera with me, it happens everytime. Last time I actually had my camera I was so proud of myself for remembering this time but when I took my picture with Johnny (Depp) the pictures kept coming out blurry, so once again I had no pictures of my new found famous friend.
Well, the other night my roommates Justin, Suzanne and I went over to the other hostel Vibe for karaoke night. I was sitting in the pub area of the hostel with my buddy Cappie watching drunk travelers sing their heart out when over by the door I see this really familiar face. I did a double take and then stared at this stranger for a few minutes questioning if it was him or not. Now I'm at a hostel so my first thought was "why would he be here?" but the longer I stared the longer I was convinced it was him. I mentioned to Cappie that I thought the guy by the door was from one of my favourite movies. He asked if I was sure; I stared for another minute and at this point was completely convinced. Cappie gets up and walks over to him and starts talking. Within seconds he was smiling and I knew that I had been right. I get off the couch and walk myself over I look at him and say "Warren Beatty"
Ok lets rewind here. One of my all time favourite movies is Empire Records, one of my favourite characters from that movie is the kid who shop lifts the cd's and when he gets caught he says his name is Warren Beatty.
So at this point I am super stoked. May not be super famous but I was so excited I was shaking. We started talking and I asked him if he would mind taking a picture with him and he was like "sure go get your camera" so I went to look for Justin because my purse was in his car when all of a sudden it hit me! "FACK!!!" I left my camera in my other purse. This isn't happening, it's my dreams coming to life. I can't believe I did this, I knew I should've put it in my purse but I didn't think I would need it - I'm in Hollywood I always need my camera.

I was so upset LOL, but lucky being at a hostel someone has got to have a camera.
This is only sighting #2 I wonder how many I will have before I return home :)

Me and Brenden Sexton III

A Bad Promotion, Mean Cabbies, Tuna Fish and a Shopping Cart on Melrose.

So let’s see; the weekend, which means the Usher CD Release Party.  So as a promoter my job is to promote this event through emails, texts, Facebook, Twitter, word of mouth and flyers.  My roommate Dallas had gone to the interview with me so he had to promote for it as well so we planned on going down to Hollywood Blvd on Saturday (the day before the event) and hand out flyers/passes for the event.  Well of course Dallas and I planning to get work done together never happen’s and we get side tracked.  We decide to spend our money and go to Madame Tussaude’s House of Wax (photo album up on Facebook – Real? Fake? Look-a-Like).  It was pretty awesome but creepy at the same time.  At one point I couldn’t find Dallas and when I looked around for him I saw all these people, famous people, but then you realize that none of them are real. Sometimes when you turn around there is one just standing there staring at you and then you realize it’s another wax figure.  These was figure’s are made to the exact scale and size of the actors and they have the actors’ distinguishing marks on them such as tattoo’s scars and piercings, it’s really crazy.  Some of them look so real your expecting them to start a conversation with you or wait till you’ve looked at them long enough and then they are just going to look and you and say Boo and scare the crap out of you.  I even got Dallas to poke them to make sure they were wax, it’s honestly incredible how real some of them look.  After our adventure with the rich and famous we decided we weren’t in the mood to promote so we went grocery shopping instead and then headed back to the hostel.

By the time Sunday hit my phone and my Facebook were going crazy with messages from people that wanted guestlist.  It was great I had over 37+ on my list and I only needed 20 so I was pretty happy.

I had to be at the club by 9:30p that night so Ryan, Justin, Ethan, Mandy and I all got a cab at 9p and headed down to Ecco (the club).

It was pretty awesome when I first got there.  All the promoters got in a line and were directed into the club.  Once we got inside we had a bit of an orientation and that was it.  We had done our job and now we were just able to enjoy the event.  I was thinking “this is great!  Promote al week and then get into  the parties for free. Sweet!”  Boy, was I wrong.   No line up for guestlist/VIP passes = in a line up for over an hour.  Open bar till 10:30p = no running it by the owner so it was cancelled meaning drinks were $11 each.  Usher listening party = Usher is a no show.  Getting paid to promote the events = not being able to get a hold of your boss.  Now don’t get me wrong,  we had an absolute blast, maybe too much of a blast considering we spent way too much money. Using my VISA for emergencies only ended up being I need a rum and diet it’s an emergency lol.  But, it was all worth it in the end. 

We ended up leaving just after 1am as we had drank a little too much and thought it best we just head back to the hostel.  We grabbed some street meat and hailed a cab.  Now let me tell you something about the cabbies here in Hollywood.  THEY ALL NEED AN ADDITUDE REAJUSTMENT.  First off every time I get into a cab and ask them to take me somewhere they don’t even know where it is.  My first night here I was getting dropped off at Ella’s and the cab pulled over and I politely asked “is this the address” he rudely replied “how am I supposed to know I have never been here before, you don’t know where you’re going!”  It really makes me miss the cabbies in Collingwood, they are so much nicer and actually make your ride more enjoyable.  Anyways when we got into the cab after the club all I remember is Ryan arguing with the cab driver.  Apparantly he wanted to charge us a $20 flat rate when we were only a $16 cab drive away.  So the cab driver decides to turn around with the meter running and drive back to the club to over charge us.  We finally calmed him down and got him to drive us back to the hostel which only ended up being an $11 cab ride.

So now lets fast forward as few days to Wednesday.  Dallas and I decide that we wouldn't mind grabbing a bottle of cheap vodka ($12 for 20oz) and listening to some tunes down in the party room.  So thats exactly what we did.  We pounded out Lady Gaga on the stereo speakers and danced on the coffee tables which actually scared some people from coming in the room.  A small speaker even fell from the ceiling but we don't even know where it came from lol.

The next morning was beach day for Dallas and I, ya, ok, let me tell you how GREAT I felt (pure sarcasm here).  I felt like I had been hit by a truck, cheap vodka may be good for my budget but it definately  isn't good for me lol.  We decided to nix on the beach till the following day (Friday) and just allow ourselves to devulge in our own self inflicted illness.  With painful heads and upset stomachs we decided to take the 45 minute walk down to Sunset and La Brea to the grocery store.  On our way to the grocery I really needed to stop for food ( I had the hungover hunger) so we decided to stop at Subway.  Not really that hungry I decided to get a tuna salad feeling it would be lighter and go down better then a sub at this point.  So of course Dallas and I who are both Gemini's and are pretty much the same person are both hangover bitchy; here's what happned - he kept putting his pop on my tray I kept moving it he putting it back.  I took a sip of his pop he took a sip of mine, I took some tuna salad and put it in his pop, he took it out threw it back in my bowl and poured just a little of his soda in my salad.  At this point we pause and stare at each other, like two cowboys ready to draw their guns.  Then very slowly with a smile of satisfaction he picks up his soda and dumps the orange liquid all over my salad turning my ever so delicious salad into tuna salad goo. Not over impressed because it cost me $7 (which is out of my budget), I was hungover and hungry I picked up a forkful of tuna salad goo and flung it at him, I got him right in the face.  If you could've seen the look on his face, it was priceless, man did I laugh so hard, and so did he.  It was on his face in his hair, on his sunglasses and on his shirt, it was all over him.  With a hungry stomach but still laughing histarically we left and headed the rest of the way to Ralph's (grocery store).

I don't know if I have mentioned but Dallas is an Aussie so we have different terms for things so when we get to the grocery store he starts calling the buggy a trolly.  I said no a trolly is something you ride a buggy is for groceries.  He said no a buggy is something you ride and a trolly is something you push. We are going back and forth like this for 5 minutes when I hear giggling.  This woman was standing there listening to us bicker and thought it was hilarious she couldn't stop laughing.  Dallas even asked her if she thought it was a buggy or trolly but she was laughing to hard she couldn't answer.

Anyways an hour later and $200 worth of groceries (most of them being different flavours of noodles) we are ready to head back only to realize that there is no way we can carry all of our stuff on the bus, and it would be way to heavy to carry home but a cab was way out of our budget. What do we do? M - Dallas maybe we should just take the buggy.  D - I was just thinking the same thing.  So that was our decision take the buggy.  All of a sudden the buggy stalls it wouldn't move and the wheels would just move from side to side. Dallas pulled it back, it was fine, pushed it forward and stopped, it literally got retarded on us.  Well, they have these magnetic things all around the property so that you can't steal the buggies. Smart for them bad for us. Now what?  Dallas sees a buggy beside a car and decides to pick it up over the magnetic thing.  VOILA!  We move all our groceries into that buggy and begin our 45 minute trek back to the  hostel.  Do you have any idea what it is like walking down Melrose Ave. pushing a shopping cart full of groceries while everyone else is walking around with bags from clothing shops.  Yup, definately not the most popular kids on the block that day.  We might as well wore sings on our back that says "Kick Me!". 

We did make it to the beach the next day.  Dallas and I went down to Santa Monica the next day and check out the fair on the Santa Monica Pier and just sat and watched the water it was a really relaxing day, a little chilly but really nice and chill.  The only bad thing was we ordered burrito's, fries and onion rings for lunch.  Not really the greatest idea I have had since I left Canada.  We were both in the bathroom for quite a while.  I kid you not (for those with weak stomachs do not read any further) it was like a machine gun and then a bomb explosion and then a trumpet played.  There were a few minutes I thought I was going to die.  I couldn't even eat dinner that night I was still full (if you could even call it that) from the burrito.  NEVER AGAIN!

Well thats it for now.  I don't have much else to talk about but I think I have given you all enough to read this entry.  I will try and post something in a few days.  I am off to go buy the boyz some chocolate bunnies and we apparantly have an easter egg hunt at the hostel tonight so that should be fun.  

Take care, Happy Easter, and remember to love your Collingwood Cab Drivers.

LA LA LAND with a little bit of 90210

It's been awhile since my last blog so this might be a bit long so hopefully you can sit through all of it. The last thing I wrote about was Santa Monica and Venice beach.
Alright so a few days after that my girl Ella calls and says she had the day off and asked if I want to meet her down at Santa Monica on Tuesday. So I am up early, on the bus and at the beach by 10:30 am.  What a beautiful morning it was. It was so hot, one of the hottest days since I had arrived and there was a music video being shot on the Santa Monica Pier Bridge.  We found a vacant spot on the sand and sprawled out - for 4 hours - I wasn't ready to leave when Ella wanted to but by the time I got off the bus I was glad she did because I was a little red.  Well actually, I looked like a lobster, but now I am a nice brown :)
A few days later (Thursday) my flat mate Dallas and I decided to rent a car for two days so we could get some resumes out.  We hired a car from Rent a Reck, and what a Reck it was.  It was two shades of green,  the gas pedal was stiff, every time I hit the breaks the back end of the car clicked, there were only five radio stations 3 spanish stations, one new station that repeats its songs and one 80's station which is the one we stuck with (it totally suited the car), there wasn't even a spot for a tape or a cd to be played, all the mirrors had to be adjusted by hand, the key was bent and there was no power steering. LOL it was a wreck but it got us through LA, which by the way is a horrible place drive.  I love driving but all I wanted to do was take the car back to the hostel and leave it in the underground parking until we had to return it.  Everyone runs red lights, people pull out in front of you and cut you off left right and centre and everyone honks constantly and don't forget the no power steering.  The guy at the car rental place said "when turning left and the light turns red don't turn right away because people will run the reds and when it is green don't pull out right away make sure everyone is done running red lights. But DON'T BE AGRESSIVE. It's easy you shouldnt have a problem"  ....? after all that how can I not be aggressive.  LOL.
We drove down to Venice beach and got some lunch and then headed towards West Hollywood where we wanted to hand out resume's.  Well, having a car gave us some freedom and we got really side tracked.  We drove through Beverly Hills and Down Rodeo Drive.  It is a completely different world there.  Everything is so prestine looking.  It's so manicured with it's white buildings, spotless sidewalks and every designer store you can imagine.  Even the cars were high end, we were definately slumming it on Rodeo lol, it was worse slumming it through Laguna Beach in a Dodge Charger with Pauly.
Anyways we decided to drive through the hills. So we drove through windy hills and up streets that were so steep I thought the car was going to roll back so I leaned forward hoping it would help.  We got lost in Bel Air (I think it was Bel Air).  The streets were so narrow and so windy, we kept hitting dead ends and I could barley turn corners because without power steering ShitHeap (the name we gave the car) liked to make wide turns.  I had to come to a complete stop turn the steering wheel all the way and then proceed, it was awful, I almost hit someone because the car turned so wide.  Very cautiously and white knuckled we made our way to Mullholand Drive (we never got to handing out resume's that day) My Vertigo kicked in sometimes, it was like I could feel the hight all around me but it was well worth it.  We drove to a viewing point and looked out over The Valley,  the Freeway and the Hollywood Sign.  It was really beautiful.  Did you know that Hollywood was originally Hollywood Land?  A landslide came and took out the word Land so they just left it lol.  Now you know.
After a long day of driving I finally get to park ShitHeap and have a beer, or so I thought.  Justin my other flat mate asked if I could give him a lift so back in the car I get. Perfect. Rush hour.  Within five minutes I got pulled over by the cops, GREAT.  COP: Hi there my name is officer so and so may I please see your liscence and registration?  Do you know why I pulled you over? ME: Absolutely not (I hand him my liscence and rental papers)  this is my first time ever driving in LA and I just rented this car today.  COP: Where did you rent this car from?  ME: Rent a Reck COP: haha I can see that (he keeps laughing)  ME: Trust me I would love to rent something nicer  COP (hands me back my liscence and papers) you see that sign there you cant turn left here. you have really pretty eyes.  Be careful or someone will give you a ticket. Have yourself a nice day  ME: (looking at Justin)  It helps being a girl.  JUSTIN: Fuck Emmie they would've nailed me ME:  I know ahah.  So I turn around pull up to the light and make a right JUSTIN: Emmie you can't turn while pedestrians are crossing! . As he says this he looks out the window and the cop was standing there smiling shaking his head.  HAHA what a day.  The next day Dallas and I actually get out to job search but barley got out any resume's due to the fact nobody would take them because we were looking for cash work and nobody was interested.  Another day gone and no job so what do we do haha party.  There was a party at our hostel that night.  It was a blast.  We met these three really rad Aussie's, Amy, Kate and Garth, all siblings traveling together.  They will actually be back here in a few weeks and want to meet up, they texted me today so I am pretty stoked.  The party was great everyone had a blast. Though I was really confused the next morning when Justin was all dressed up from the night before, I thought he was going to work but that wasn't the case.  He ended up passing out in the party room and had just made it upstairs with swollen eyes.  And I mean swollen eyes. Have you ever seen anyone with swollen eyes before?  i thought I had until I saw Justin on Saturday morning.  His eyes were these round balls sticking so far out i thought they would pop out of the sockets; I'm surprised he could even blink lol it was so funny.  Then I hear a very confused half asleep voice from Dallas's bunk "why am I naked?"  and then me going "how did I get to bed?" it was so funny but so painful.
That night I went over to Ella's for a girls night and some drinks. A few drinks later her, Nathan (her new flat mate) and I head over to the Bungalow (hostel) for some drinks, Justin and then off to the Saddle Ranch for a crazy night of music and drinks.  SOOO MUCH FUN but so much pain the next day lol but well worth it.
Sunday was a chill day for all of us, Justin and I were hung over after two nights of drinking and Ryan had gone to a Rave on Saturday and drank with us on Friday so we were limited to a day on the couch with junk food and movies.
Then it's Monday. The begging of a new week and time to get myself a job.  As much as I wanted a job bartending I knew it would be next to impossible. No bar would hire me without a Visa which I dont have.  So what do I do Craigslist.  Man do I love Cragslist.  I looked up and out my picture to any promotion, or promo model add in the Los Angeles Area.  20 emails and 3 hours later I had 3 interviews.  Guess what.  I GOT A JOB!  Two of them to be exact.  One is for this promotion company promoting the high end clubs in Hollywood and promoting big parties. Dallas and I both got the job together, and the address of the head office is 90210 Beverly Hills!  No joke!  My first task is promoting this Sunday nights event at Ecco Nightclub. It's Usher's CD Listening party and the man himself is going to be there.  Fucking amazing.  My other job is working at private celebrity functions. They are B and C celebrities but it's still a pretty cool job.  The best about both of them is they are cash paying so it's golden. I am super stoked.  Plus the owner of the second one is friends with Mr. Hugh Heffner and I have been invited for Sunday Poker at the Mansion.  Yup thats right the Playboy Mansion.
Well I hope you have enjoyed yet another one of my entries.  I have to go get ready as Dallas and I are going to two night clubs tonight, no line no cover to check them out and start promoting.  LA LA LAND is right!!!

Famous Sighting

Sunday afternoon Ryan, Dallas and I went to the Whole Foods down the street to grab some necessities before our Oscar celebration and I found myself standing beside Ali Larter at the meat counter. Then again at the check out. I snuck a picture with my iphone. I love it here!!!
