A Behind the Scenes Look
Just for a bit of fun. I'm posting a video of me and my best friend just having fun and being kids on Labor Day weekend. What better way to sharpen my acting skills than to play with them! Enjoy! And remember, the Charcoal God is King!! Respect his fire! (just kidding)

Going Wild for True Blood!!! Woo Hoo!
So I was hunting for vampires one night when...... :) LOL! Check out this promo I did for True Blood.
The grave we were at was really, really old! I swear there were burials from the 1700's there! I was
a little afraid at first but then I pulled myself together...sort of. Anyhow, the shoot was loads of fun!
Enjoy!

Thank You Marion.
I saw Public Enemies yesterday and of course the movie was excellent and Johnny Depp did an exceptional job...of course. And then you have the French born actress, Marion Cotillard, this woman is amazing. She has become one of my favorite actresses. If you have not seen her in La Vie en Rose, please do it. She plays her roles so seamlessly and with a sense of vulnerability and strength that I've only seen Liz Taylor do. I was so inspired by her performance yesterday. As I watched her I felt a fire burn in my stomach yearning to act. I hope that when it's my turn I inspire someone as Marion has inspired me.
Thanks Marion.

The Life and Times of an Actress
Today was one of those days where I needed to be encouraged. God gave me that through the voices of loved ones, little signs here and there, and a creative mind. I just want to thank God for the encouragement and my on call massage therapist Pete (the fuzz ball above). To everyone out there...We all have a path. It may not be the same as your neighbors....It may not even be the one you imagined in your mind but hold on to whatever faith you have, hold on tight. Do your best to know that everything will be ok. Because it will....I know it will....I'm an actress and a writer. That's my passion. That is me. I have no choice but to be. I have no choice but to believe.....Someday I'll make it. Someday I'll smile and laugh at these hard, hard times I'm going through and when I do....to God be the Glory.
I started this blog not only to network but as a public glimpse into the life of someone trying to make the seemingly impossible, possible. And one day, I pray this blog turns into a testimony and inspiration for all people who are in the same struggle no matter what the goal....This is the life and times of an actress....an actress named Blair.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time,
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time,
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing
-William Shakespeare

I'm a Toys R' Us Mom!! Ha!
Ha Ha! Look who's a Mommy! It was so funny because when my agency called me and told me I was booked for a Toys R' Us ad, I was like ok...either they've got some teen issue going on or I'm a mom. Sure enough I walk in and I'm a mom! And not just any mom, my director from an off off Broadway show I was in was there with her handsome little grandsons! Never thought that I would take the Disney song "It's a Small World" seriously until I grew up and had moments like this. So here's to Toys R' Us and all of the joy they've given me throughout the years....and still do. :) ...Hey, I gotta get my Nintendo DS games from somewhere.
