Society for Aesthetic Deletions

1. Who is your favorite celebrity?

I don't really have a favorite. But I'm liking Orlando Bloom and Hugh Jackman a lot these days.

2. Who is your least favorite?

None comes directly to mind.

3. Have you ever met or seen any celebrities in real life?

I met Andrew Robinson (Garak on DS9) once. He, as a young man, attended the school at which I was currently working. I've also met Bruce Campbell (at a signing at Origins, have a picture), Mira Furlan (Delenn from B5, again at a signing at Origins, she signed my B5 rule book), J. Michael Straczynski (another signing, got him to sign my ToyFare magazine and sent the picture into ToyFare and was featured as a F.O.O.T. soldier in one issue). Oh yes, and I sort of met Jerry Doyle (Garibaldi from B5) at Origins, too. Long story. Someday I'll tell it, or maybe I can get Jim Gaynor to tell it, as he heard it directly and I only heard about it later. Mr. Doyle also was at a restaurant later with a small entourage of fans, and we were eating there too. I refrained from saying anything to him about it, though. I see various celebrities at GenCon and other conventions, but usually at a distance. Oh, and I had James Marsters answer my question at GenCon a few years ago, when he was there for an appearance.

4. Would you want to be famous? Why or why not?

I fluctuate between this. I don't think I'd want to be just famous. I'd rather be rich. Fame in and of itself can cause more problems than it solves.

Of course, if I become a best-selling author and get my fame that way, I'll deal. :)

5. If you had to trade places with a celebrity for a day, who would you choose and why?

Hmm...probably, oh, I don't know ... J. Lo. So I could sleep with Ben and then kick his ass out on the street. And cancel their stupid attempts to remake certain movies! *laughs*
