WEBVTT - Let's Q&A with Shannen Doherty 0:00:02.560 --> 0:00:08.000 This is Let's Be Clear with Shannon Dorty. Hi, everyone, 0:00:08.160 --> 0:00:11.840 welcome to another episode of Let's Be Clear with Shanna Doherty. 0:00:12.400 --> 0:00:16.040 So today's episode is going to be a Q and A. 0:00:16.760 --> 0:00:20.520 You guys sent in hundreds of questions and I'm going 0:00:20.600 --> 0:00:22.560 to answer them. I'm not going to get to all 0:00:22.600 --> 0:00:26.920 of them. I think that's pretty much impossible, but eventually 0:00:26.960 --> 0:00:29.040 we will. So we're going to go through as many 0:00:29.120 --> 0:00:32.360 today as I can get through. I'm sorry, I have 0:00:32.400 --> 0:00:35.599 a little bit of a sore throat. So from and 0:00:35.640 --> 0:00:39.720 if I butcher your names, I'm really sorry. From Kristen 0:00:40.680 --> 0:00:43.919 de mac Isaac. Growing up, did you ever read and 0:00:43.960 --> 0:00:46.360 respond to your own fam mail or did someone else 0:00:46.400 --> 0:00:51.680 do this for you? So interesting question, Yes, I actually did. 0:00:51.800 --> 0:00:56.160 My mom and my dad were very much huge. They 0:00:56.280 --> 0:00:59.320 encouraged me to read everything so that I would understand 0:01:00.080 --> 0:01:04.440 my responsibility of being in the public eye. And they 0:01:04.480 --> 0:01:07.840 would so we would have like fan mail days where 0:01:07.840 --> 0:01:10.840 we would sit down and read the fan mail and 0:01:11.360 --> 0:01:13.399 then I would sign a photo or sign like a 0:01:13.400 --> 0:01:16.800 little card, but certainly on little House. NBC would supply 0:01:16.920 --> 0:01:20.880 us with all that stuff and then put it in 0:01:20.880 --> 0:01:23.319 the envelopes, give it back to our producers and they 0:01:23.360 --> 0:01:26.399 would send it off to the fans, So yes, I did. 0:01:27.640 --> 0:01:31.480 I actually really enjoyed reading the fan mail. Later on 0:01:31.920 --> 0:01:37.440 it became a little overwhelming and that process sort of stopped. 0:01:37.720 --> 0:01:40.720 I think Aaron Spelling did it, but I can't be sure. 0:01:41.640 --> 0:01:46.200 From Mel mel B, I know you, girl high. Who 0:01:46.280 --> 0:01:48.559 is your biggest inspiration in life? And what three words 0:01:48.600 --> 0:01:52.880 would you tell your younger self. My biggest inspiration in 0:01:52.920 --> 0:01:57.600 life is probably always going to be my parents, and 0:01:58.480 --> 0:02:00.200 it's just because of the way that they raise me 0:02:00.240 --> 0:02:03.160 and what they taught me, and their strength and their perseverance, 0:02:03.240 --> 0:02:10.360 and my admiration for them knows no limits. And what 0:02:10.400 --> 0:02:15.200 I would tell my younger self is to chill out 0:02:15.440 --> 0:02:19.040 and don't take it all so seriously. That's pretty much it. 0:02:19.720 --> 0:02:22.720 From Chelsea Luanne, what is something you've learned about yourself 0:02:22.840 --> 0:02:27.200 since you started Let's Be Clear podcast. I've learned that 0:02:28.720 --> 0:02:34.359 being transparent and honest is a double edged sword, and 0:02:34.840 --> 0:02:40.480 there are moments where it's really wonderful because you're getting 0:02:40.520 --> 0:02:45.000 to share yourself in such a very personal way with 0:02:45.120 --> 0:02:48.480 people who personally connect with you with your journey, whether 0:02:48.520 --> 0:02:53.760 it is through cancer, just your acting or whatever. And 0:02:53.800 --> 0:02:56.600 in that regard, it's really wonderful and really nice. But 0:02:57.120 --> 0:02:59.680 there are also people out there who they think that 0:02:59.720 --> 0:03:02.840 they want to hear you be transparent, but then when 0:03:02.880 --> 0:03:06.120 you are, they don't really like the answer. They don't 0:03:06.200 --> 0:03:11.760 like that transparency, and it turns into a you know, 0:03:12.040 --> 0:03:16.639 bashing of Shannon or a bashing of other people and 0:03:17.000 --> 0:03:24.080 creating sort of this contentious environment, and that is something 0:03:24.200 --> 0:03:26.200 that I don't really like. You know, the point of 0:03:26.200 --> 0:03:28.920 this podcast was to connect with all of you. It 0:03:29.000 --> 0:03:32.040 was to be very clear about things in my life 0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:37.160 that had transpired, talking to my friends, talking to doctors, 0:03:37.240 --> 0:03:41.040 bringing knowledge and strings and hope to the cancer community, 0:03:41.080 --> 0:03:43.880 which I hope I'm doing. So that's what I've learned, 0:03:43.920 --> 0:03:47.840 is that transparency is a double edged sword. But I 0:03:47.880 --> 0:03:53.680 will always I will always lean towards transparency because at 0:03:53.760 --> 0:03:56.520 least I'm getting to be honest, and at least I'm 0:03:56.520 --> 0:04:00.200 getting to say what has transpired in my life and 0:04:00.240 --> 0:04:05.880 what my truth is. And there's something very cathartic about that. 0:04:07.000 --> 0:04:10.400 Lindy's Candy Boutique, Where does your strength come from during 0:04:10.400 --> 0:04:14.680 your hardest days of coping with your diagnosis? I don't know. 0:04:15.000 --> 0:04:18.479 I have said this before that, I kind of imagine 0:04:18.480 --> 0:04:22.560 that there's a well inside of me, and when it's dry, 0:04:22.680 --> 0:04:24.839 you just kind of got to dig a little deeper, 0:04:25.000 --> 0:04:27.960 and when you dig, you find more strength. I also 0:04:29.400 --> 0:04:31.600 know my mom is one of the strongest human beings 0:04:31.680 --> 0:04:33.799 I know, So I get a lot of my strength 0:04:33.839 --> 0:04:37.040 from her, and from the love and support of my 0:04:37.400 --> 0:04:43.080 friends and that support system, and my brother and sort 0:04:43.120 --> 0:04:48.240 of people knowing when I'm sort of going through probably 0:04:48.400 --> 0:04:51.080 a darker time or a time when I'm not feeling 0:04:51.120 --> 0:04:55.320 as strong, I tend to become a hermit. I tend 0:04:55.360 --> 0:05:00.479 to not answer phone calls. And my friends now know 0:05:00.560 --> 0:05:05.960 that about me, and they sort of persist in reaching 0:05:06.000 --> 0:05:09.000 out to me so that they can help me dig 0:05:09.000 --> 0:05:11.440 a little deeper for that strength. So I'm really blessed. 0:05:11.440 --> 0:05:13.279 I'm very lucky with the people that I have in 0:05:13.320 --> 0:05:19.160 my life. You're ten seventeen. What is the biggest misconception 0:05:19.360 --> 0:05:22.680 about you that you would like to clear up? Oh, 0:05:22.760 --> 0:05:27.720 there are so many. I think the biggest misconception about 0:05:27.760 --> 0:05:37.320 me is that I am a bitch. I think that's 0:05:37.360 --> 0:05:41.960 probably the biggest one I am. I am definitely not 0:05:42.160 --> 0:05:45.960 a bitch. I am strong, and I'm smart and I 0:05:46.040 --> 0:05:50.159 have an opinion, and if those things make me a bitch, 0:05:50.440 --> 0:05:54.000 then there's something incredibly incredibly wrong with this world and 0:05:54.040 --> 0:05:56.839 how they view women and what the women are allowed 0:05:57.560 --> 0:06:00.720 to put out there. So I don't really think that's 0:06:00.800 --> 0:06:03.800 on me. I think that's on society, if that's what 0:06:03.839 --> 0:06:10.320 it is. I'm actually like a really I can be 0:06:10.400 --> 0:06:18.640 painfully shy and very self conscious and things hurt me 0:06:19.360 --> 0:06:22.600 really deep. I'm not I don't have thick skin, and 0:06:23.800 --> 0:06:27.680 particularly since twenty fifteen when I got diagnosed with cancer, 0:06:27.800 --> 0:06:32.520 that those walls that protected me from a lot of 0:06:33.120 --> 0:06:37.680 negative comments all sort of came down, and with them down, 0:06:38.040 --> 0:06:43.240 I often sometimes feel like I don't have a coat 0:06:43.279 --> 0:06:47.680 of armor anymore. And that can be beautiful, but it 0:06:47.680 --> 0:06:53.599 can also be detrimental. More on that later. But that's 0:06:53.720 --> 0:06:58.880 probably the biggest misconception from Dana. I apologize. I'm going 0:06:58.880 --> 0:07:03.599 to butcher your name right now now, Dana Jacko Viello, 0:07:04.520 --> 0:07:07.040 how do you choose to handle any criticism, bullies and 0:07:07.160 --> 0:07:09.720 haters your way over the years and now compared to 0:07:09.720 --> 0:07:11.960 when when you were younger? Is there any difference? Ship 0:07:12.000 --> 0:07:15.200 so why? Well kind of just answered that one in 0:07:15.240 --> 0:07:17.960 the sense of back then I think I just put 0:07:18.000 --> 0:07:25.320 up all these walls and really was able to slough 0:07:25.360 --> 0:07:28.760 it off and ignore it, and I wouldn't read anything 0:07:29.160 --> 0:07:36.280 I had blinders on, and now I don't, And I 0:07:36.320 --> 0:07:40.560 think the oftentimes I get sent stuffed by people that 0:07:40.640 --> 0:07:42.960 I probably shouldn't read, and I now know to not 0:07:43.080 --> 0:07:46.240 read it because it's not going to be useful for me. 0:07:47.120 --> 0:07:55.720 But the harassment haters, bullies now impact me more. But 0:07:55.760 --> 0:07:58.840 I also like to remind myself that there's a thing 0:07:58.880 --> 0:08:02.600 called keyboard warrior, and that usually if you're someone who 0:08:02.680 --> 0:08:06.280 is going on to tell someone how awful they are 0:08:06.920 --> 0:08:10.000 or that they're toxic, or that they're this, or they're 0:08:10.120 --> 0:08:13.680 ugly or like, whatever their mean comments are, it's really 0:08:13.720 --> 0:08:16.400 a reflection upon how they feel about themselves and not 0:08:16.920 --> 0:08:19.360 what they really feel about me. They're just gonna unload 0:08:19.400 --> 0:08:22.200 it on me because I seem like an easy target 0:08:22.200 --> 0:08:27.760 for them, But that's their issue, And yes, it's a 0:08:27.920 --> 0:08:33.120 thing that I constantly have to remind myself of from forever. 0:08:34.200 --> 0:08:37.520 F Ce your skin is flawless? What is your beauty regime? 0:08:37.559 --> 0:08:41.920 Oh my Guinness, I love you. My skin is not flawless. 0:08:42.400 --> 0:08:45.640 As you can see, I got some stuff going on lately. 0:08:45.760 --> 0:08:51.440 But my beauty regime, I'm I do not wash my 0:08:51.480 --> 0:08:54.520 face in the morning with any soap. I just rent 0:08:54.600 --> 0:08:58.320 it with water, which I've found helps a lot. And 0:08:59.080 --> 0:09:07.199 I use serums and moisturizers and more serums. I'm figuring 0:09:07.200 --> 0:09:10.200 out which are the best. I like changing products a 0:09:10.240 --> 0:09:12.560 lot because I feel like my skin gets used to 0:09:12.559 --> 0:09:18.760 one thing. But I just moisturize, moisturize, moisturize, and I 0:09:18.760 --> 0:09:23.559 have this little at home micro dermibration thing that I 0:09:23.679 --> 0:09:26.280 roll on my skin lately, and that seems to be helping. 0:09:26.960 --> 0:09:33.320 And that's pretty much it for that. From to how 0:09:33.480 --> 0:09:38.040 y'all do it? What do you feel is your legacy? Oh? 0:09:38.200 --> 0:09:43.520 I don't know if I have one yet, but I 0:09:43.600 --> 0:09:48.200 guess looking at legacy in a very simple way, I 0:09:48.200 --> 0:09:50.640 hope my legacy is that I was a really good daughter. 0:09:51.800 --> 0:09:55.720 And then on a bigger scale, I hope my legacy 0:09:55.880 --> 0:10:02.440 is that I put a face an emotion to cancer 0:10:03.080 --> 0:10:06.480 and that I helped as many people as humanly possible. 0:10:07.520 --> 0:10:10.120 Only baby girl sixteen, Where's the one place in this 0:10:10.160 --> 0:10:11.960 world that you would love to travel to? There's just 0:10:12.000 --> 0:10:25.960 too many places. Boy, Where would I like to travel to? Botswana, Kenya, Sardinia, Vietnam, India. 0:10:26.520 --> 0:10:29.160 It's a big list. I have a lot of places 0:10:29.160 --> 0:10:30.600 that I want to go to. And again, guys, I 0:10:30.640 --> 0:10:35.920 apologize about my sore throat. I threw a party for 0:10:36.200 --> 0:10:39.640 my best friend's mom's ninetieth birthday and I was in 0:10:39.720 --> 0:10:43.080 charge of planning the entire thing, and boy did I 0:10:43.120 --> 0:10:45.400 work hard and as a result, I sort of lost 0:10:45.440 --> 0:10:48.920 my boys. Chrispy Mayhem, I was wondering if you would 0:10:48.960 --> 0:10:51.320 be comfortable sharing with us what's in your everyday bag 0:10:51.600 --> 0:10:56.600 and or beauty bag. So in my purse is always 0:10:56.600 --> 0:11:04.120 my iPad and my cell phone. There is two eyeliner pencils. 0:11:04.160 --> 0:11:08.240 One is the Chanelle Pencil Antique. The other one is 0:11:08.480 --> 0:11:13.760 the new Victoria Beckham eye liner, which I love. And 0:11:14.360 --> 0:11:19.040 I usually keep a little pot of moisturizer with me 0:11:19.400 --> 0:11:29.000 and then my Listics lip conditioner. I literally cannot go anywhere. 0:11:29.040 --> 0:11:33.320 I've left my house and driven like three blocks and 0:11:33.400 --> 0:11:35.839 turned around and went back to the house for it. 0:11:35.840 --> 0:11:41.559 It is my absolute favorite thing ever. And let's see, 0:11:41.559 --> 0:11:47.520 there's always a hair band and my wallet and my passport. 0:11:47.600 --> 0:12:03.800 My passport is always with me. Mitchell seven two three, 0:12:04.520 --> 0:12:07.200 How did you feel about the Brenda Dylan Kelly triangle 0:12:07.280 --> 0:12:13.560 and the whole treating scandal. I was horrified. I was 0:12:13.880 --> 0:12:17.520 so not into that because A I just thought Brenda 0:12:17.559 --> 0:12:19.600 and Dylan were like the best things. Ever, so I 0:12:19.640 --> 0:12:26.040 didn't understand anyone wanting to mess up that storyline. And 0:12:26.080 --> 0:12:31.880 then to have someone's best friend sleep with your boyfriend 0:12:32.120 --> 0:12:38.559 is such a betrayal that I don't even know how 0:12:38.600 --> 0:12:40.640 Brenda recovered from that. I don't think she ever did 0:12:40.640 --> 0:12:46.760 recover personally. So I wasn't thrilled with it, but I 0:12:46.800 --> 0:12:51.520 didn't have much say, so I went with it. Shando's strong. 0:12:52.040 --> 0:12:54.400 How did you find working with James Echalis here? Scenes 0:12:54.440 --> 0:12:57.520 together were always quite emotional, they were. James was one 0:12:57.559 --> 0:13:03.960 of my favorites. We got along really well, and he 0:13:04.040 --> 0:13:07.760 was a great actor who made me feel in those 0:13:07.800 --> 0:13:10.160 moments like he was a dad like he was very 0:13:10.240 --> 0:13:13.280 protective of me. So I loved working with James Jaylee 0:13:13.400 --> 0:13:15.800 nineteen Pepper Sweeney was on his guest. He stated when 0:13:15.840 --> 0:13:17.280 he appeared on nine Note two and Zho, you walked 0:13:17.280 --> 0:13:20.080 around with the giant python around your neck. Ginny and 0:13:20.120 --> 0:13:22.520 Tory said that they didn't remember that. I don't remember 0:13:22.559 --> 0:13:25.800 that either if I had a python around my neck, 0:13:25.880 --> 0:13:31.320 it's because it was either in an episode or one 0:13:31.360 --> 0:13:35.319 of our animal wranglers brought it and I was getting 0:13:35.440 --> 0:13:37.959 used to it. I know there was a photo shoot. 0:13:38.000 --> 0:13:42.880 I did it one time with uh it's an albino python, 0:13:43.480 --> 0:13:46.760 and I did a photoshoot, So maybe the photoshoot was 0:13:46.760 --> 0:13:48.760 done on the set and I had to get used 0:13:48.760 --> 0:13:51.920 to the python. I also remember that on that photoshoot 0:13:52.040 --> 0:13:54.760 the python went to the bathroom on me and it 0:13:54.840 --> 0:13:58.760 was pretty horrifying. Power of X men. I'm curious about 0:13:58.760 --> 0:14:01.200 your relationship with Tiffany with theas in you two ever 0:14:01.240 --> 0:14:03.160 met discus nine or two and now we met a 0:14:03.200 --> 0:14:06.000 really long time ago because she was dating Brian Austin Green, 0:14:06.000 --> 0:14:08.079 who's always been a great friend of mine. I think 0:14:08.080 --> 0:14:12.000 Tiffany is wonderful. I love her, and I think she, 0:14:13.240 --> 0:14:16.040 you know, stepped in and did a fabulous, amazing job 0:14:16.280 --> 0:14:19.160 and in something that was probably very difficult to step 0:14:19.200 --> 0:14:23.240 into for her, and she handled it with class and grace. 0:14:25.120 --> 0:14:28.240 Sir Nick Lee, how would you direct a Preue Resurrection special? 0:14:28.320 --> 0:14:30.920 Are there any elements to your director style that you 0:14:30.960 --> 0:14:35.960 incorporate or emphasize in your work? So I mean, I 0:14:36.000 --> 0:14:40.600 just think that Prue had so many powers and the 0:14:40.640 --> 0:14:45.560 astral projection and everything else. I think that I would 0:14:45.600 --> 0:14:48.080 have her come back as the strongest elder ever, but 0:14:48.200 --> 0:14:51.480 where you know her form, everything that she can do, 0:14:52.640 --> 0:14:57.480 her her power is tangible, and my directors style that 0:14:57.880 --> 0:15:02.280 that I would incorporate or emphasize in my work. I 0:15:02.360 --> 0:15:07.800 when I direct something, I do a lot of shot 0:15:07.840 --> 0:15:11.640 list and I like to have storyboards done, and I 0:15:11.720 --> 0:15:15.920 usually base the esthetic the look of it on a 0:15:15.960 --> 0:15:20.840 particular painting. So, for instance, the last episode I directed 0:15:20.920 --> 0:15:24.720 of Charmed, it was based on a salvad Or Dolly painting. 0:15:24.880 --> 0:15:28.360 That was the color scheme, the esthetic, the mood, everything else. 0:15:29.040 --> 0:15:32.960 And then I just like to be overly prepared, because 0:15:33.280 --> 0:15:36.360 don't I don't think that people have to work sixteen 0:15:36.400 --> 0:15:40.440 hours on a TV show and a day. So I 0:15:40.640 --> 0:15:43.880 like to know how I can condent things, how I 0:15:43.880 --> 0:15:46.840 can put people in two shots, how many cameras can 0:15:46.880 --> 0:15:50.120 I actually use, still be on budget, hopefully come in 0:15:50.240 --> 0:15:53.840 under budget, and get people out at a normal hour 0:15:53.960 --> 0:15:56.560 so that they can go home and have family time. 0:15:57.680 --> 0:16:00.360 Kathy two bagels. What happened in the last episode Charm 0:16:00.400 --> 0:16:02.920 season three? The Missing episode twenty three. This is a rumor. 0:16:03.000 --> 0:16:07.880 There is no missing episode twenty three. Louis Oakes, what 0:16:07.920 --> 0:16:09.640 items did you keep from the set of Charmed? I 0:16:09.720 --> 0:16:14.200 kept a lot of clothing. I kept a lot of 0:16:14.200 --> 0:16:19.960 clothing which I still wear, actually, Mucco Metal. Please tell 0:16:20.040 --> 0:16:25.360 us literally anything about your experience on Heather's I, you know, 0:16:25.960 --> 0:16:31.040 was I don't think I was eighteen yet and my 0:16:31.200 --> 0:16:36.920 mom was on set with me. I remember thinking that 0:16:37.720 --> 0:16:42.200 the other girls were really beautiful and that I was 0:16:42.320 --> 0:16:46.720 awkward looking, and I had a little bit of insecurity 0:16:47.160 --> 0:16:50.560 about that. But I really kind of hung out with 0:16:50.600 --> 0:16:55.080 my mom because, you know, except for Winona, everybody else 0:16:55.160 --> 0:16:58.160 was older than me at that time. The True Fire, 0:16:58.240 --> 0:17:00.000 I would like to know your experience in the mood 0:17:00.240 --> 0:17:02.640 friends till the end where you had to sing, and 0:17:02.680 --> 0:17:04.919 you did it very well. Thank you. Would you like 0:17:04.960 --> 0:17:07.600 to participate in a musical movie? Did you ever think 0:17:07.600 --> 0:17:10.679 about being a singer? I did think about being a 0:17:10.720 --> 0:17:14.920 singer after that movie came out. I had a couple 0:17:14.920 --> 0:17:21.800 of meetings with some amazing record people, and it was 0:17:21.800 --> 0:17:24.439 something that I discussed. But ultimately I think I was 0:17:24.520 --> 0:17:30.560 incredibly insecure about my singing voice, and I was also 0:17:30.600 --> 0:17:33.560 insecure about how people would receive that from me. I 0:17:33.640 --> 0:17:36.840 think I got scared. I chickened out of doing anything 0:17:36.920 --> 0:17:39.520 with singing. I might regret it a little bit, but 0:17:39.600 --> 0:17:42.400 not too much. What are some roles that you auditioned 0:17:42.400 --> 0:17:45.320 for that you didn't get? There's a lot. There are 0:17:45.320 --> 0:17:47.119 a lot of roles that I auditioned for that I 0:17:47.119 --> 0:17:52.000 didn't get. I can't really remember one offhand right now, 0:17:52.119 --> 0:17:56.560 Oh I did. I remember when I was young, I 0:17:56.640 --> 0:17:59.640 auditioned for a movie called Pollyanna or a TV show 0:17:59.640 --> 0:18:03.359 called and I really really really really wanted it, and 0:18:03.440 --> 0:18:06.159 I thought I had it and I didn't and I 0:18:06.200 --> 0:18:09.359 was pretty bummed. And I auditioned for Annie. I didn't 0:18:09.359 --> 0:18:13.359 get Annie. I auditioned for I think I auditioned for 0:18:13.400 --> 0:18:17.200 Anna green Gables and I was I know, I'd read 0:18:17.200 --> 0:18:24.720 all the books. Later in life, I auditioned for scorsese 0:18:24.920 --> 0:18:31.119 movie Aviator with Leonardo, and I also did not get that. 0:18:33.040 --> 0:18:35.240 I was pretty bummed about that one. Obviously I would 0:18:35.280 --> 0:18:39.600 want to be in that movie. And I auditioned for Heat, 0:18:39.960 --> 0:18:43.800 the Michael Mann movie, which I loved, and I loved 0:18:43.880 --> 0:18:46.800 Michael Mann and all the actors that were involved. But 0:18:46.960 --> 0:18:51.080 ultimately he hired Ashley Judd instead, which was a bummer 0:18:51.119 --> 0:18:54.000 for me but great for her. Those are just some 0:18:54.359 --> 0:18:58.480 fan that I can remember. Oh, if you could get 0:18:58.480 --> 0:19:02.080 back into the director's chair given it unlimited budget, what 0:19:02.119 --> 0:19:07.320 would be your dream movie or series to direct an 0:19:07.400 --> 0:19:13.840 unlimited budget? You know, I don't think I would care 0:19:13.960 --> 0:19:19.080 about the unlimited budget. I work well on budgets. It 0:19:19.119 --> 0:19:23.080 would it would just have to be a piece that 0:19:24.640 --> 0:19:35.240 was emotional and stirred people. I want to bring out 0:19:35.480 --> 0:19:41.119 emotions from the audience. And there's a couple of books 0:19:41.119 --> 0:19:44.600 that I have my eye on that I would love 0:19:44.760 --> 0:19:50.760 to direct. There was a book that Rebecca Diynerston wrote 0:19:50.800 --> 0:19:53.600 that I really wanted to direct, but by the time 0:19:53.640 --> 0:19:56.080 I reached her, they had already had to deal with 0:19:56.119 --> 0:20:00.920 somebody else, which was a bummer. But you know, anything 0:20:00.920 --> 0:20:04.000 that just feels I kind of like more from my 0:20:04.240 --> 0:20:06.040 from my style. I kind of like a little little 0:20:06.040 --> 0:20:10.680 bit more of a simple movie, even though I obviously 0:20:11.040 --> 0:20:14.880 directed with CGI and stunts and all of that, so 0:20:15.000 --> 0:20:17.959 I can definitely do it. Of course, I would love 0:20:18.000 --> 0:20:21.080 to direct a Matrix style movie. That's one of my 0:20:21.160 --> 0:20:25.040 all time favorite movies. But you know, they did it 0:20:25.080 --> 0:20:29.040 so well, I I could never touch that ever ever, 0:20:29.400 --> 0:20:32.879 just it was every single thing about the matrix was perfection. 0:20:34.840 --> 0:20:37.560 What co star made you laugh the most between takes, 0:20:37.960 --> 0:20:43.719 Oh depends on what show we're talking about. You know, 0:20:43.800 --> 0:20:46.600 Brian always made me laugh, Toy always made me laugh, 0:20:47.359 --> 0:20:53.840 and uh, you know, Holly and I made each other 0:20:53.960 --> 0:20:59.960 laugh quite a bit. So I think out of significant 0:21:00.000 --> 0:21:03.359 TV shows, those are the ones. And then working with 0:21:03.440 --> 0:21:06.720 Kevin Smith and just all of those actors were hysterical, 0:21:06.840 --> 0:21:09.119 so we would all kind of chuckle at one another. 0:21:11.320 --> 0:21:13.200 What is your fondest memory from your time on the 0:21:13.200 --> 0:21:16.199 Little House and any valuable lessons that Michael Lannon taught you. 0:21:16.280 --> 0:21:20.040 Michael Lannon taught me to be true to myself. He 0:21:20.119 --> 0:21:26.720 taught me to embrace my voice, to stand up from myself. 0:21:27.880 --> 0:21:32.720 And he taught me how to play a liar's poker, 0:21:33.359 --> 0:21:37.240 which occupied a lot of dead time on the set. 0:21:37.320 --> 0:21:39.399 You know, when they're lighting and stuff, you sit around 0:21:39.920 --> 0:21:43.520 and you're in school, or you're sitting around and or 0:21:43.840 --> 0:21:46.159 on your breaks, and so I would play a liar's 0:21:46.200 --> 0:21:50.600 poker with the crew, and that was always really fun. 0:21:50.960 --> 0:21:55.280 I loved Michael. I loved the movie Gone in the 0:21:55.359 --> 0:21:58.679 Night what was your memories of making that movie. It 0:21:58.840 --> 0:22:04.480 was hard. I felt a deep responsibility to the family 0:22:05.280 --> 0:22:14.560 to portray their story accurately, and it was to dig 0:22:14.600 --> 0:22:18.760 and find her emotion and what she was going through. 0:22:21.359 --> 0:22:23.680 I got to meet her. There was just a lot 0:22:23.680 --> 0:22:28.760 of pressure that I felt doing that movie. And it's 0:22:28.760 --> 0:22:31.159 also one that I'm really, really, really proud of. I 0:22:31.160 --> 0:22:35.639 think it turned out wonderful. The cast was amazing in 0:22:35.680 --> 0:22:40.520 that movie, and it was Yeah, that would go down 0:22:40.600 --> 0:22:43.280 as a piece of work that I'm extremely proud of. 0:22:45.160 --> 0:22:49.879 Who's your dream person to work with. It's directors. It's 0:22:50.359 --> 0:22:53.600 people like Michael Mann, people like Martin Scorsese, people like 0:22:53.720 --> 0:22:59.560 Joe Wright, Darren Aronofski, obviously Quentin Tarantino. There's just and 0:22:59.600 --> 0:23:07.439 there's so many Stephen Soderberk like there's it's usually directors 0:23:07.760 --> 0:23:11.720 that I look to that I really really want to 0:23:11.760 --> 0:23:14.200 work with. I mean, obviously, there are actors that are 0:23:14.560 --> 0:23:17.439 fantastic that you can only dream of working with. The 0:23:17.560 --> 0:23:19.720 Robert de Niro's of the world and Nicole Kimmins, the 0:23:19.720 --> 0:23:24.040 Michelle Pfeiffer's, all of those people phenomenal. Yes, of course 0:23:24.080 --> 0:23:27.000 I would want to work with them, but I think. 0:23:27.080 --> 0:23:30.359 For me, my main focus would be on who the 0:23:30.400 --> 0:23:33.680 director is. Is it true that there was an All 0:23:33.760 --> 0:23:52.119 Hell Breaks Loose? Part two? Nope, not true. Beck ma'am Stanton. 0:23:52.960 --> 0:23:54.720 I am from Santa Clarita, and I have a story 0:23:54.720 --> 0:23:57.439 about Shannon that I never forgot. She was filming that 0:23:57.480 --> 0:23:59.800 show that she did with Wilfrid Brimley at my high 0:23:59.800 --> 0:24:04.040 schoo Goal Heart High and Newhall, California, probably around nineteen 0:24:04.080 --> 0:24:06.280 eighty eight to nineteen ninetey nine. My friend was a 0:24:06.320 --> 0:24:08.879 senior with a huge question of her. He asked her 0:24:08.960 --> 0:24:11.760 to her of coming prom and Shannon treated him with 0:24:11.840 --> 0:24:15.720 complete respect and reflected on the date she was a 0:24:15.760 --> 0:24:18.920 successful working actress in all the team magazines and made 0:24:18.960 --> 0:24:21.920 him feel worthy of her time and consideration. She let 0:24:21.960 --> 0:24:24.320 him know she was working and gracefully thanked him for 0:24:24.359 --> 0:24:27.640 asking her. My question would be, as a successful young 0:24:27.680 --> 0:24:29.959 teen girl, where did that humility come from? I've been 0:24:29.960 --> 0:24:32.520 a fan ever since that day, because if I didn't 0:24:32.520 --> 0:24:36.720 have that humility, my parents would have been so mad 0:24:36.760 --> 0:24:42.200 at me. They they really taught me to be respectful 0:24:43.119 --> 0:24:46.719 of people until they give you a reason to not 0:24:46.760 --> 0:24:49.720 be respectful and then just walk away from them and 0:24:51.200 --> 0:24:56.720 I actually remember this, and he was lovely. He was 0:24:56.760 --> 0:25:00.280 so nice about it and so charming and sweet that 0:25:01.359 --> 0:25:07.320 he obviously deserved the attention, and he deserved me giving 0:25:07.400 --> 0:25:12.400 him consideration, and I wanted him to walk away from 0:25:12.400 --> 0:25:15.960 that feeling good. You know, I think if we all 0:25:16.000 --> 0:25:20.040 put ourselves in other people's shoes before we react or 0:25:20.080 --> 0:25:24.160 before we say something, it'll make us a lot kinder 0:25:24.240 --> 0:25:30.600 of human beings, because oftentimes we'll think, oh God, I 0:25:30.640 --> 0:25:35.840 can't believe somebody like asked me. But now think about 0:25:35.960 --> 0:25:39.200 that person who did ask you, and what they felt 0:25:39.240 --> 0:25:43.240 in that moment, the possible nerves that they felt, or 0:25:44.760 --> 0:25:47.480 maybe they felt self conscious, maybe they got dared to 0:25:47.520 --> 0:25:50.960 do it, maybe whatever it is, You've got to think 0:25:51.000 --> 0:25:56.680 about how they're feeling, so that your reaction can be 0:25:58.119 --> 0:26:03.800 one one of respect and humility as opposed to as 0:26:03.800 --> 0:26:07.120 opposed to any other reaction that someone perhaps might have. 0:26:07.560 --> 0:26:10.960 So I do like to take into consideration how people 0:26:11.040 --> 0:26:17.760 feel and what their emotional journey was having the guts 0:26:17.840 --> 0:26:21.480 to come and ask me. Because I'm too shy, I 0:26:21.520 --> 0:26:24.679 would never be able to do that. So for this 0:26:24.760 --> 0:26:29.680 person to ask me, I did respect them. I respected 0:26:29.720 --> 0:26:35.840 that they felt strong enough about themselves that they invited me. 0:26:35.920 --> 0:26:40.200 I thought that that was very cool, but humility is 0:26:40.240 --> 0:26:46.639 a beautiful thing, and more people actually really needed. Do 0:26:46.680 --> 0:26:49.119 you have any memories of working with Johnny Depp when 0:26:49.200 --> 0:26:51.480 you guest starred in twenty one Jump Street. I did 0:26:51.520 --> 0:26:55.160 not get to work with Johnny. My scenes were with 0:26:56.040 --> 0:26:58.280 other people, so I didn't really get to work with Johnny. 0:26:58.359 --> 0:27:02.720 But I had met Johnny later a bunch of times 0:27:03.200 --> 0:27:05.959 as I used to go to the viper room. I 0:27:06.000 --> 0:27:09.679 also lived above him for a period of time, so 0:27:10.480 --> 0:27:15.760 I actually looked onto his property, so sometimes I would 0:27:15.760 --> 0:27:20.879 wave to him. There's my Johnny Dupp story. I know 0:27:20.920 --> 0:27:25.640 it's been a long time. This is from Sweet Summer. 0:27:26.119 --> 0:27:27.919 I know it's been a long time ago, but I 0:27:27.960 --> 0:27:29.720 love Little House in the Prairie and I loved your 0:27:29.840 --> 0:27:32.480 character as Jenny. Can you tell us any favorite memories 0:27:32.520 --> 0:27:35.960 that you had while doing the show Boy. I just 0:27:36.119 --> 0:27:39.080 I got to work with Michael Landon. That's one of 0:27:39.160 --> 0:27:44.560 my all time favorite memories and just the things that 0:27:44.600 --> 0:27:48.080 I learned from him. He directed some of the episodes 0:27:48.080 --> 0:27:52.040 and wrote some of the episodes, and just remember how 0:27:52.080 --> 0:27:57.440 he was as a director. It probably didn't probably definitely 0:27:58.320 --> 0:28:03.439 helped me realize what kind of a director I wanted 0:28:03.560 --> 0:28:07.879 to be, and he gave an example to me of 0:28:07.920 --> 0:28:11.400 being so concise and so thorough and so prepared and 0:28:11.480 --> 0:28:16.399 really confident in his choices as a director, and I 0:28:16.400 --> 0:28:19.480 admired that and I took it with me and then 0:28:20.000 --> 0:28:24.400
