Hey! Does anyone remember BP's answers to those questions James Lipton asks at the end of Inside the Actors Studio? Like favorite word/noise/etc?
Thanks!!

Let's see:

Favorite noise: cello music

Least favorite noise: honking horns

Favorite curse word: "crap" but when she's really mad, it's "f**k

Profession she would try other than acting: "I already told you! I can't do anything else!"

Hates: prejudice

What she would like God to say to her when she reaches heaven: "Come on in, we have 2 orchestra seats waiting for you"

I think there might be a few more, but I can't think of them off the top of my head.

one of my favorites (preceeding the "what profession she would try" question.) It was generally like this (a really cute exchange

JL: I heard recently that you once took an aptitude test.
BP: Oh, no...
JL: ...you once took an aptitude test to determine what career was best suited for you, and it told you what, exactly?
BP: Oh God. It said... I couldn't do anything else. I can never ever do anything else.

(and of course when he asks her later what other profession she would go into, if she had to choose, she answers with, "I told you already, I can't do anything else!")

***************
Regis: And look at all this hair. My God. That's a lot of hair. Look at this. How does hair get this way?
Bernadette: Um.. it sort of grew out of my head like this.

I think there was also a question about a profession she definitely didn't want to be a part of and for her it was being a butcher. No shock there.

Also I think she said she liked the word Crap but ended up saying "Shit" more often because that's what came out of her mouth.

I think maybe her favorite sound was rain and cello music was something that turned her on, with prejudice being something that turned her off. I think her favorite word was connection and her least favorite was fear.

You know the show's site used to list all the guest's responses to the questionnaire but I just tried to find it and they don't seem to have that feature anymore. Too bad. It was interesting.

Grrr! When Bravo aired this they decided to stick an infomercial in the middle of it in Alabama. Does anyone have a copy of this on tape that I could pay for?


Bump it with a trumpet!
