And the Madness Begins!
Taping season 3 of "James and Sunda" is already a zoo!
"Cat Woman" accosted me on Hollywood boulevard during a taping. She was screaming: "I can't be photographed! I'm a member of the Screen Actors Guild!"
Although her rant was amusing, as we didn't want her on tape, the producer advised me to stay away since he thought she was violent. My "Jersey radar" didn't pick up "violent." I mean, she was wearing purple glitter lipstick with her "challahs" hanging out all over the place... what a mess!
She then started following and taping me with a blackberry. So there I was, trying to
interview people while she's screaming that she's a professional actress when the truth is: she's a professional lunatic!
But that's not the point. I was watching the news last week and saw that this same "character" was arrested after attacking another character (poor Jack Sparrow) with mace! Madness! Should we be on guard in Disneyland? Will Goofy and Mickey "throw down" over Minnie?
I don't make fun of the characters who are trying to make a living but come on, control yourself!
Speaking of, last week I had to control myself...at a benefit! It was for a great organization that brings joy to the lives of children living with cancer. They asked me to host the show. It was an honor and it was also packed with my people! Israeli lady Gaga's, spiked hair dudes and dudettes from Haifa, Louboutin wearing women... basically, a great audience.
I think it was one of my best performances! Every applause break was for my mother. (May she rest in peace.) Every clap made me feel one step closer to conquering my enemy: cancer.
After a set, a comedian who will remain nameless (as he was tasteless) tells the audience "Seriously, look at Sunda... she looks like an 80 year old woman!"
The only reason I repeat this story is that I received so many e-mails from his outburst that I had to share it with you! I pull out the old hack line "You didn't say that last night!"
The crowd laughed and he lashed at me like a Catholic school girl screaming: "How old are you, anyway?" I told him I would reveal my age if he would reveal his length of an unmentionable body part and the crowd went wild!
He stomped off the stage and I brought up his buddy who opened his act by stepping deeper into the manure by saying: "Give it up for my friend (so and so,) he came out here today even though his kids have the stomach flu!"
Uh... we are doing an event about kids living with cancer and he's talking about kids living with the stomach flu? Madness! I couldn't believe my ears and although I appreciate them both for doing the show... remember, it's the mitzvah not the madness that counts!
Let's see what happens when they run into the "Catwoman of Hollywood Boulevard."
Stay tuned to VJ... I just can't wait to tell you like it was ...and like it is! Meow!
