Tonight, at 7 PM, I will be at the Royal, a local movie theatre in Toronto, greeting the audience as they enter to see a film in which I have a supporting role.

"Auto-Destruct: One Man's Obsession With William Shatner" is the name of the film, and I play the role of Janine, the transsexual interpretive dance facilitator, who is also the one-time love interest of the film's central character, Bob Radjic - the one obesessed with Bill Shatner.

The movie got the nod from the Toronto entertainment rag 'EYE' as this week's 'Best Bet' in film - even though there's an indie film fest happening at the same time. It also got 3 out of 4 stars, and it's funny to boot.

and if your browser is up to it, here's the crappy music video that Bob's band, "USS Rock N Roll" makes in the movie - "Warp Factor Love". That's Bob singing, btw. Although I was the one who made the even crappier animated sequences.

And now I must bathe. My public awaits - !

Good luck! Make sure you don't say anything stupid

Just thought I'd let you know it went great. It looks like I'll be getting more work doing the acting thing this year! I'm kinda surprised, especially after the pick-up shots they did at my character's 'interpretive dance school' two weeks ago.

I hated wearing the hot pink and black leotard. Made my ass look collosal. But it was a bit of a rush when all the people in the audience realized who I was, and congratulated me on my performance.

I'm definitely not Hollywood material, that much I know. But hey, you gotta give these things a try. Who knows?

Sweet, congrats man-Now I can look out for a NSer in a movie.

Um... what does a "dance facilitator" do?

By the way, good luck with the film!

Congratulatulations. If I had any money I'd look out for it.
Good that it went so well, heh. Noice and stuff!
