Profile for EvilPip

And now that she's been forced to add a day of open auditions on Monday, her latest tweet is "Finalizing callbacks for Gay Bride..."?!?! Announcing to the world that she's got everyone she wants to see, and next Monday's audition is superfluous. Doing what she can to get a dig in. Unbelievable.

"I think that a lot of people have never really read the Twitter account and don't know how Twitter works," she said. "It's such a new technology, not everyone understands it." What does she think people are missing? You type it, we read it. I've read several mysterious references now to us low-tech actors being uncomfortable with this because it's fancy new technology. (AEA was called "Luddite" by one producer.) This is no different than if she were tapping Morse Code into a telegrapher. The...

Best12bars: "Sock puppets" like EvilPip...are you Daryl herself or her associates... Have you read anything I've written before coming up with that? I've been lambasting the woman! I'm one of the more outraged people on this board. Read one thing I've written and tell me how it sounds like I might be a Daryl friend, please?

I don't agree that she should be expected to offer her "constructive criticism" inside the audition room -- I suppose if that happens and it happens constructively, so be it and more power to her, but auditions are meant to be a tightly run ship and not a class. The American Idol world has many people convinced that you sing, and the people behind the table put their pencils down and devote time to sharing their thoughts, naughty or nice. But if an audition went poorly, all I'd expect anyone ...

PS: Am I totally 10 steps behind here, or did she see fit to delete the "Your skirt makes me think you're a Wiccan" gem of insight?

As she makes clear in her tweets, she was alerted to the problem by Equity, and her responses to actors' concerns are among the rudest of her posts. "There is NO rule/guideline against Twitter/Facebook/MySpace/Friendster. Freedom of speech. Ever heard of it?" (And yes, the First Amendment is completely irrelevant here, as is the legality of the rudeness.) "Dear @ActorsEquity - it is MORE distracting dealing with your constant complaints right now than it is to tweet!" CONSTANT complaints. By ...
