The Hangover

I went to The Hangover premiere last night, and my producer, Allan, let me do more red carpet interviews! I got to interview Heather Graham, Rachael Harris and Ed Helms (Andy from The Office). Our news program used my interview with Heather Graham for the 10:00 news too! I personally thought her interview was the worst one of the night, but hey, they're the professionals. She was hard to talk to, but I think they used hers because she was one of the biggest stars of the night. Ialso got to meet Bradley Cooper, Ken Jeong and the director, Todd Phillips. It was my biggest celebrity spotting so far: Jim Carrey, Zac Efron, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, the cast of Entourage, the cast of The Office (minus Steve Carrell), Audrina Patridge and more all showed up for the premiere. We didn't get to go inside and watch since we were on a deadline, but I can't wait to see it! You know you're movie must be funny if Jim Carrey shows up to watch it!

What else I've been up to:

My roommate, Amanda, and I are working on a scavenger hunt for our UTLA program. If we complete it before June 15 we get to go to the Magic Castle as members, which we're told is pretty special. The scavenger hunt has us running all over LA trying to complete the extensive items on the hunt's list. Saturday we spent several hours on Hollywood Blvd searching for certain stars. We didn't know any of the stars we had to find, but we have to write a biography on them as part of completing the scavenger hunt, so I'm sure we'll find out soon.

I started class on Monday. I can tell that I'm really going to enjoy Phil Nemy's class, How Hollywood Works. All the UTLA kids are nice and really interested in going out and getting to know each other. Monday night we went to Saddle Ranch to celebrate Matthew Robinson's birthday. Saddle Ranch was a little boring because it was comedy night (the comedians weren't funny), but I'm glad I went and got to know more of the students.
