I am just LOVING those eyelashes! I can't believe I forgot Breakfast With The Arts. Grrr. I was at the beach doing photo homework. It was a beautiful morning. This Sirius interview is hysterical. I caught the end of it in the car the other day...whenever it was on the radio but didn't get to hear the whole thing. I love Seth and I love the cast. Life is good (even if you missed Breakfast With The Arts and are currently writing a term paper on ways to stop international conflict.)
I meant to say this after I finished listening to that interview ages ago, but I forgot. So anyway, I was cracking up when Seth called Adam and Anthony the two lovers. Some people are awfully strange out there... writing about Adam & Anthony making out..psh.............. come to think that'd be kind of hot. =/ (I jest. Or do I?)
I'm one of those weird people who thinks two men isn't just okay, but insanely hot.
But I do think it's weird that people post that stuff online.
There's a difference between fantasizing and going around insisting that you *know* something terribly outlandish is true just because you wish it were.
Oh, I totally agree. Two guys is lovely. Adam and Anthony would be a very lovely pair It's just...uhm. Stories about it seems a bit strange to me (though I find it REALLY funny that Anthony read them. Well he must have read it to know about it, no?)
Well, that's like my friends at the end of What You Own in the movie:
"KISS HIM! KISS HIM!"
Me: GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
They don't act slashy at all in the movie. At ALL.
"Oh, good. After all, I can rub my stomach and pat my head at the same time, and I can do it with my eyes closed while whistling 'The Entertainer.' That's rhythm for you."

I'm back, and I think I've got a way to make some copies of the A&E thing this morning. But before we get into that, Adam is in the NY Times today, the Long Island section. It probably only comes with papers out here on the Island, but I wanted to give you all a chance to at least look for it. It's a half page article on p. 12 of that section.
It's about him being from LI and his career to date. Here are some excerpts:
When Adam Pascal talks about his career in entertainment, he often knocks on wood.
"I've been extremely fortunate," he said recently, knocking on a wooden coffee table... "I started out playing in a rock band and for a long time didn't feel comfortable calling myself an actor, but after having success in various genres I came to the conclusion that I didn't have to call myself anything. My experiences as a musician, an actor and a producer have been extremely validating, and people can call me anything they want and that's OK."
[He says that in contrast to the kids in choir or doing high school plays] "...I was one of the guys who smoked cigarettes in the courtyard, hung out behind Geico, where we rode our dirt bikes, and traveled around playing battles of the bands."
[They talk about how he got into Rent and after that]... "I still thought of myself as a musician and resisted being identified as an actor. But I didn't have much luck with record deals, so I started going out on auditions. It was a time of self-discovery."
Just as he was about to give up and get a "real job," Mr. Pascal said, he landed the starring role in Aida...
[Then they get into Cabaret and the Rent movie - all stuff we've heard before - and about how Syosset High where he and Idina went has a number of show biz grads]...
But Mr. Pascal said that of all his roles, the one that has been the most fulfilling is that of husband and father to his two sons, now 4 and 2.
"In Hollywood, nothing is permanent, but this is a role that is forever," he said.
And what if his children want to become actors?
"I would dissuade them," he said emphatically. "It's an emotionally draining, self-esteem-wrecking business. But while damaging to the psyche, the fates nudged me in this direction. This was my calling, and it's what I'm meant to do."
There's the publicity still from Finale B with the six of them, and a shot of him from the interview in a black jacket and one of those very busy shirts he has.
