a little hung up on this one

Every so often, I talk about this girl. We went to high school together and she's an up-and-coming actress. Although after what I saw the other night, I think she's an up-and-cumming actress. Allow me to explain.

Every now and then, I get a message from her dad updating us on her newest projects. She's done commercials, had bit parts on soap operas, done some jobs on and off Broadway, has been in several TV drama and comedy series, her latest playing the mother in the new Jonas Brother's show on Disney.

So I'm flipping through channels the other night and I see a preview for the new HBO series Hung.

And there she is.

The first time I thought I was seeing things but when they showed her again, I couldn't believe it.

She's going to be in a show about a man who has a big pecker and prostitutes himself.

WTF?!?!? I didn't get an Email update about this!!!

But wait...

How do you tell your dad that you're gonna' be acting in a role where you're having sex with a man who has a super duper schlong?! And taking your clothes off?! Would you tell your parents?! I sure as hell wouldn't tell mine!

Hmmm...something tells me her dad doesn't know about this one. And something tells me that it's not gonna' be long (pun intended) before he finds out!

If you get HBO, she'll be on the second episode (July 5th, I believe) entitled Great Sausage. Her character's name is Lorena. Hopefully, she won't Bobbitt off his great sausage. Heh.

I have a friend who is constantly updating me about her friend in the movies and all of her bit parts. She gets REALLY bit parts as in never speaks. Why should I care? It's pretty obvious that they are using her for pretty "color" in the backgrounds because she's Asian-American. Seems like a rough way to spend your life.

Honey, I like getting updates about my friend. She's worked super hard to get where she is and has done pretty well for herself (even if some of her comedy series flopped). I'm hoping this spotlight of her on JONAS and on HBO will get her even bigger roles.

As for your friend, I think you should care (just my opinion, of course) and why they're using her doesn't/shouldn't really mater. If she's your friend, you could lend her your support and encouragement. Acting is a very tough field with a lot of rejection. I've known quite a few people who tried for years and finally gave up. The fact that she's proud of herself is a huge deal to her and bit parts sometimes lead to bigger parts.

So now you have me curious, since your link to your friend no worky-worky.

As an editorial comment, schlongs seem to be in vogue again . . .

Sorry Charlie (heh) about the link. Not sure why, it worked fine the other day. And I had no idea schlong was outta' fashion, lol.

Yeah Joey, well it wouldn't surprise me as Hollywood seems to have run out of decent ideas for stories. Not sure how long (heh) this series will last either 'cause how many weeks can we actually deal with this guy whipping out his large member and boffing the women folk?!

Hey! You just back off! She is a wonderful actress and I was glad to have her in the new HBO show based on my life.

Eh! I saw her on NCIS this year!

Hubby's parents knew artist Jeff Koons parents. Some years ago, he put out a very VERY pornographic (look up "Red Butt" if you're so inclined)series. All Hubby's mother could say was "that is such a mess!" snarf.

Well, knowing how HBO is, sounds like you're going to get to see more of your friend than you ever imagined...as in "kibbles n' bits" more!
