gmonkey42My co-worker, T., is from L.A. and she got an e-mail from her friend that they're having an open call for extras on Pirates of the Carribean 2 and 3 on December 12. This morning in the car, I actually, seriously thought about taking Monday off to go down to L.A. and audition (since it's on Sunday and I wouldn't want to have to spend all night driving back up here). My friend's roommate is a professional photographer so I thought I could get head shots in a hurry and for not terribly much money. But then I read the website for more info and it says they won't take anyone who doesn't live in L.A. Dangit. But if you live there, you can check it out at www.sandealessicasting.com. It sounds like they wouldn't have hired me anyway; I am vaguely British-looking but I'm not voluptuous.
They say how fashions keep changing but what's been fashionable for women in Western culture for the past hundred years has always been either adolescent-boy-thin or Pam-Anderson-curvy. Why can't they have a period when it's fashionable to be built like a twentysomething guy who's on the short and skinny side but with medium-sized boobs? That'd be about right. And acne. Acne should definitely be fashionable. Supermodels should be smearing chicken grease all over their faces to get all spotty like me. In fact, I don't care if it's fashionable, supermodels should be required to smear chicken grease on their faces anyway. No, wait, that sounds too much like a bizarre fetish porn site. Never mind.
