Interview0 Comments

Secrest interviews Dorfman during On Air With Ryan Seacrest and questions her about why she did not want to star in the show The Bachelorette.

My public life and my career and all the music that I’ve made: You can find it all,” he says. “It’s out there in the world. I’m not a Mickey Mouse Club star that got to rebrand myself. For better or worse, my stuff is all out in the open. And if you have any interest in what I do, or my songs, or the records I make, you can follow the whole trail. I absolutely don’t recommend that you do.

Williams interviews Hicks and questions him on his latest show I Wanna Marry Harry. 

I did a few small [impersonation] jobs before this one. The production company saw my Facebook profile and said well how about this? I work for an environmental consultancy company as my job so I had to do a lot of research and I went through like this week of Harry school.

Esquire interview

Slattery discusses the making of the film God’s Pocket:

So I read the book about ten years ago and I tried to get the rights but was told they were owned by someone else. And I was told in the beginning that Peter had written a screenplay of the book back in the ’80s. Over the years I kept basically downloading the book into screenplay form and rearranging things and showing it to people and a couple of years later near the end of that process I showed it to Alex [Metcalf] and we wrote a draft together. And as I tried to get the rights again, I though what would have Peter Dexter added to the screenplay that isn’t in the book? So I realized all I need was the book, so I didn’t really look at his screenplay.

Seacrest interviews McCreery during On Air With Ryan Seacrest and questions him about how he was robbed at gun point.

If I had gone on 80 years and never had to deal with that, I would have been fine. We had gone out it was like 1:30 in the morning We were watching Gladiator on TV. And all of a sudden we heard a knock and they just barged on in. [They] knocked first we didn’t recognize them [so] we didn’t open it. And the second guy, [my friend] thought it was a neighbor. And it was only one person … no mask, no gun, no glove, didn’t look suspicious. As soon as they opened the door, then four people barged in guns a blazing. I thought whatever you want you take it. I was on the ground, and he was holding the gun to our heads. I was staring down the barrel of a pistol.

They’ve got so much amazing talent down at NXT. The one I’m most familiar with is Sami Zayn. I’ve been in the ring with him personally and was very impressed by his talent, athleticism and charisma- so he’s going to be one to look out for.

The rest of the band were in London because we had just finished a session together, but Tim was here, so I asked him, ‘Is there any way you can come in a do this demo?’ And in about 20 minutes, he turned it into this full-on thing and it was just wonderful to do that he was there from the beginning.

Dolly Parton interview

Interview0 Comments

Williams interviews Parton about her album Blue Smoke, her husband, and her god-daughter, Miley Cyrus,

I have known Miley since she was a baby. I’m really more the fairy godmother. I never really got to spend all the time with her that you usually would. I used to be on her Hanna Montana show — I was aunt Dolly on the show. Miley is going through a lot of changes and we just have to trust her because she is so talented. She is so smart. She just had to be totally drastic because we wouldn’t let her grow up like Shirley Temple we never wanted her to grow up either. But Miley said I had to kill Hanna Montana in order to be Miley.
