Interview s Kelly Carlson (Kimber) iz časopisa čije sam vam slike stavila u prošlom postu...
STUFF: Your character, Kimber, has developed a bit of a cocaine habit.
KELLY: Yeah. I’m actually snorting vitamin B12 powder, because it has the least amount of side effects—you know, for something you can sniff. And it does make you a little wired. After that scene, it was 2 in the morning, and I had to drive to Palm Desert. So it was perfect. I ended up snorting the equivalent of two eight balls, which would be lot of cocaine. It was like a placebo, because I was wired like it was real cocaine.
Did you try any of the real stuff—you know, for research purposes?
Nooo.
Your ex-boyfriend on the show, Christian, says that Kimber is the best sex he’s ever had. Has anyone ever said that to you in real life?
[Laughs] I don’t think anybody’s ever told me that. I mean, I’ve been told that I’ve been good in bed, but I don’t know about the best.
What kind of standards do these people have?
I don’t know. Maybe I need to broaden my—I don’t know. Let’s move on.
My Hollywood sources tell me that auditioning can be brutal and humiliating. Can this be true?
Yes. I always feel stupid because of two things. One, if it’s a really stupid, dumb script, which I’ve had before—recently. And second, I really think it’s ridiculous when they ask you to do love scenes without a partner. I don’t mean sex scenes, but, like, making out. Or, like, a seduction scene. Especially when you’re supposed to have props, and you are mimicking taking off a garter or your bra. Nothing makes you feel dumber than that.
Your shoot was described as ''freakin’ awesome'' by our intern from Staten Island. What were you thinking about as the photographer snapped away?
It’s almost like you’re acting, because the photographer will say, “OK, I want you to look like you’re pissed off” or “Pretend you’re having a great orgasm.” So you just have to kinda find it.
Have you ever had to “find” an orgasm for the benefit of a boyfriend?
No, I haven’t. Fortunately, I have not had to do that. But I don’t know that I would fake one. I always think that a guy can tell. I just take the blame. “I’m just not… my chemistry’s off. Oh, and I’ll never be calling you again.” [ Laughs]
True or false: Celebrity dudes make for lousy sex, because they just sort of lie there and wait to get serviced.
You know, I’ve never dated a celebrity, but I have to say, I’ve been advised not to date particular actors because of the ego thing. Without naming names, there are specific personalities out there that you don’t want to date.
So there's a sex blacklist?
Yeah, there's Kelly's blacklist. [Laughs]
You are down with equestrian action. Have you ever taken a spill?
Sure. My horse, Maggie, and I flipped over a fence once. I went over her head. I remember lying on the ground and looking up and being like, Please, don't step on me. I was fine.
Are you a daredevil by nature?
No. I'm afraid of a million things. Like, I can barely fly in an airplane. Oh, God. I mean, I have to seriously medicate myself to get on an airplane.
You get plastered at the airport ?
No. I have to take a Valium or something. I have bad panic attacks. I cry, I hyperventilate, it's aweful. My biggest obsession is airplanes. I can tell you anything about them. I study them. I know, now I sound like Rain Man.
Describe Kelly Carlson's flight procedure.
First of all, United is my favorite airline. I don't know why, it just is. Second, take a 777 first class. If you can't afford first class, find a way. I always like to be in the second rowon the left-hand side, which is seat A. I will take connections in order to get my seat. I don't care if it takes me an extra day. I know it's weird. Then I always have my headset, so I can listen to the pilots if there's turbulence. [Laughs] Isnt' that crazy?
Gosh, no! Does anything else scare you?
I grew up with ghosts in my house. Seriously. I know it sounds stupid, but things always happen where I live. When I was younger, my dad thought something was wrong with me mentally. He took me to have tests, because he thought I was hallucinating, but I was fine. My boyfriends through the years all would make fun of me until something happened. One time, my ex-boyfriend and I woke up in the morning with perfectly folded beach towels on our heads and placed in between our legs. That's just one of, like, a million. Another time, my ex and I were sitting on the couch, and someone went running by. You couldn't see him, but you could just sense heavy feet running.
Have you ever gone to a medium to help you make real contact? Or would you prefer it to go away?
I don't know that I want it to go away. I try not to investigate it, 'cause I don't want anything weird or bad to happen.
Have you been following the election ?
Yeah. I just visited Fort Hood. I'm not pro-war or anti-war. I actually met the guys who brought down Saddam Hussein. I think Americans can be more supportive about what these people do for a living. I didn't see Fahrenheit 9/11, and I never would. Why create a war within the United States?
Any parting words for Stuff readers ?
Always pursue your dream. I know that sounds corny, but it's the truth. Don't take the safe route.
Unless you're flying.
Unless you're flying. Exactly.
