THE REAL RICH LITTLE

By -


  When everyone remembers the great Impersonators names like David Frye, Frank Gorshin come to some of us but the king will always be RICH LITTLE. He could make anyone feel that Carol Channing, Richard Nixon, Ed Sullivan were in the room if you closed your eyes. Today I along with another friend Nueroctic John were able to take advantage of him being in Central Florida with a chance to meet the legend. He was performing at a big venue and with careful questions were able to determine what hotel he was staying at after the show.So after the show we headed to the hotel itself and patiently waited. Now I have mentioned John before and something ALWAYS goes a bit off when he is involved. We saw three people walking along and decided this could be them so I headed towards the back of the hotel but when I got there no one was around. Phone rings and its John but he is not saying anything on where he is.
  As I begin to head up front the phone rings again and he is shouting " He is in the Lobby". I started to believe I was in a THREE STOOGES movie. I quickly headed there and there John is telling me that he is in his room but will meet You as soon as You arrive. And sure enough Mr. Little came out chatted for a few minutes, signed our items and thank us for meeting him. This is a true class of a person who appreciates the attention we gave him but the truth was we appreciated him even more in taking a few minutes to answer our requests,Though he has aged over the years he still appears to be young at heart and we walked away feeling quite good to have met the real Rich Little who was as great as they come.

ACTORS JOHN ASHTON and LISA EILBACHER HAVE RESTORED MY FAITH IN HOLLYWOOD

By Unknown -
The Central Florida Film Festival was showing BEVERLY HILLS COP and showing up for a Q&A were John Ashton and Lisa Eilbacher two of the main stars who played along side Eddie Murphy. They sat on stage and spoked candidly about the movie and acting in general. I did not know Slyvester Stallone was the first choice and only John saw the finished project and only once. John spoke passionately that true acting is found on the stage as movies are always in the hands of the editors and Director. Personally never looked at it that way but it makes perfect sense. John mentioned that with several takes the one you might think was your best may end of the cutting floor with the final choice by the Director. Lisa spoke of her famous curls that many talked about and how much fun they all had during filming. Lisa spoke of her role in An Officer and a Gentleman and giving it up to raise a family. Now after the Q&A is when my faith in Hollywood returned. A few of us approach...

SENSELESS KILLING OF SINGER CHRISTINA GRIMMIE

By Unknown -
We were watching the championship Basketball game when breaking news of the shooting of singer Christina Grimmie flashed across the bottom of the screen on one of the local TV stations here in Orlando. Though I was not very familiar with Christina though I did remember her powerful performance in the VOICE competion which she placed a respectful 3rd. What I was truly familiar was the venue where this tragedy happen called the PLAZA LIVE. I have seen many shows there and have met even more acts after with most signing autographs and taking photos with all their different fans. This senseless shooting happened in the lobby with a meet and greet after her show where fans get the opportunity to mingle up close and personal. Most Meet and Greet opportunities can cost an arm and leg and usually is really there for the singers or groups to add more money into their pocket . I do believe Christina did not charge and was only there to thank her fans and show her appreciation to them. Though th...
