Dawson’s Creek
Dawson’s Creek was a blast to film. We traveled down
to Wilmington North Carolina for two different shows. The local people
were great. The town is a wonderful place to learn about history. The
cast and crew of Dawson’s are lucky to live and work in such a friendly
area. Filming there was awesome. Plus, I got to play a soccer girl
"Molly". She wore black fingernail polish and carried a bad attitude.
That was so totally cool. I hope to go back and work with Kerr Smith
again. I liked studying him discussing issues with the directors. He is
a fabulous communicator.
Growing up Brady
I played Cindy Brady/Susan Olsen. I wanted this part because of the
lisp. You know the youngest one in curls. It was awesome to have so many
brothers and sisters on the set. Meeting Susan Olsen was a pleasure. She
was very kind to me and called me after to thank me. Is that sweet or
what? Michael Lookingland's family and my family went to the beach on
New Year’s Eve. His son Scotty Lookingland gave me my first on screen
kiss. Yuck. We met most of the original cast members, so we got the
inside scoop on everything. Our outfits were totally groovy.
General Hospital
General Hospital is where it all began for me. I play the daughter of
Scotty Baldwin. My character is Serena Lee Baldwin,and I am just like my
feisty dad. Kin Shriner and I are BEST FRIENDS on and off the screen,
but we do have our differences. I love singing and dancing at the
Nurse’s Ball, and he wishes I would be quiet so they won’t pick us for
an act. GH is where my mom Dominique Stanton married my dad. When Dom
was pregnant with me she found out she had a brain tumor, so she asked
Lucy Coe to carry me to term. Just after I was born Scotty took me away
to Canada. When we came back to Port Charles we started a new soap opera
called Port Charles.
Port Charles
Port Charles is like a family to me. I spend lots of time with Lynn
Herring(Lucy), Kin Shriner(Scotty), and Susan Brown (Grandma Gail). We
even call her Grandma Gail in real life. Kin, Susan, and I spend many
holidays together because we are a real family. I am very luck to find
such wonderful people to love. Everyone on the cast and crew of Port
Charles treats me very well. I know they work really hard, and I tell
them. They respect me too. When I give a tear jerking performance I love
to hear them applaud and watch them dry their eyes. My character has
been kidnapped three times, in a car wreck causing me to go blind for a
few months, told that my dad and Lucy died in plane crash, and everyone
but Grandma Gail has been at death’s door in the hospital. Tears…yes I
can give you tears.
Web Girl
This was a new experience for me. I thought
it was going to be a breeze because they gave me the script two weeks
before we had to film. I thought, "Wow, what a piece of cake." Then
all the cuts and rewrites happened everyday. My sister's name changed 7
times and the script contorted continually. I really don't think the
writers slept over those 14 days. But when the final product came
together, it was awesome. I got to be funny. A total Drama Mama. I
really enjoy playing the part of a trouble maker. It just makes me
smile all the time. Also, performing in front of a live audience was
very interesting. I get great satisfaction in hearing people laugh.
This was a great Disney pilot. I hope that it gets picked up for the
fall. It is very funny....very funny. My name is Jennifer, and I have
an older brother and sister. We live with our Mom that is a
cosmetologist. My sister's best friend is a hoot. And the principal is
the funniest lady I have ever met.
Lizzie McGuire
Oh, I have loved Hilary Duff since the first
time I met her at an awards banquet 3 years ago. She was sweet to me
then, and she was even more adorable when I worked with her. We hung
with Lalaine. Hilary calls me 'little sis'. We were dancing in the
hair and make-up room and having a ball. Filming was cool too because I
got to look like an angel, but torture Matt(Jake). I did so many bad
pranks....OH, life is good! Every time I did a something naughty, Matt
looked at me dreamily. Boys, they are such FREAKS! I hope I get to
return to Lizzie again as the bad seed, MELINA.
Mean Creek
Mean Creek was a whole lot of
fun to film. I spent my entire summer in Oregon with 5 boys. I learned
more about the way boys talk and think than I ever needed to know. We
had the most fun 6 kids could have making a movie. We worked hard all
day and played and goofed off every evening. Mean Creek turned out to
be an awesome movie that is going to all of the following Festivals:
Cannes, Sundance, London, Stockholm, L.A., and Seattle. I have fond
memories of working with this cast and crew. |
