Sandra Bullock to Sarah Paulson in Elle’s 25th Annual Women in Hollywood Event.
“I was going to write a nice speech about all the things I like about Sarah Paulson. Sarah Catharine Paulson, she likes when you use her middle name, or Powell-son, as my 5-year-old calls her. But it’s been a crappy few weeks. My dad died, both of my dogs died. You turn on the television or computer and it’s endless tragedies and it seems like more than ever now if you have a vagina, you have to be a fighter as well. So I don’t feel nice. So I decided tonight I’m going to talk about all the things I don’t like about Sarah.
I don’t like the fact that she can wear things that look like a child threw a box of highlighters. Or that she dissembled her grandmother’s couch and reassembled it with safety pins. And still takes your breath away the minute she walks on the red carpet. I don’t like that bravery and I don’t like that it’s inspiring. I don’t like that she loves so deeply and so openly. And I don’t like that she is loved so deeply and so openly by extraordinary people because it only shines the light on how I just need to be better. I don’t like her work ethic. It reminds me that I need to work harder.
I don’t like that her and Holland’s joy for life and each other reminds me that I need to be a better girlfriend. I don’t like that she’s the kind of person that after a long day of flying and fittings will sit in your hotel room after you believe she has nowhere else to go when in fact she is fully aware that you’ve been stood up and she doesn’t want you to be alone. Just like I didn’t like the dozens upon dozens upon roses with little white poppies intermingled in them mere hours after I put my dog to sleep, whose name happens to be Poppy. So if that is the type of person you want for your icon, then I think you have chosen well.”
New visual for Carole & Tuesday, the new original anime by supervising director Shinichiro Watanabe and anime studio BONES, The series will stream exclusively worldwide on Netflix.
The official website describes the story:
There’s a girl. Scrapping a living in the metropolis of Alba City, she’s working part-time while trying to become a musician. She’s always felt like something is missing. Her name is Carole.
There’s a girl. Born to a wealthy family in the provincial town of Herschel City, she dreams of becoming a musician, but nobody around her understands. She feels like the loneliest person in the world. Her name is Tuesday.
A chance meeting brings them together. They want to sing. They want to make music. Together, they feel like they just might have a chance.
The two of them may only create a tiny wave. But that wave will eventually grow into something larger…
Looking back to the dramas that made me a PMY fangirl.
She gave life to some of the most lovable, strong and inspiring characters in Kdramaland.
Here’s my ranking of her roles based on the dramas I’ve watched:
1. Chae Young Shin, Healer (2014)
2. Shin Chae Kyung, Queen for Seven Days (2017)
3. Kim Yoon Hee/Kim Yoon Shik/Daemul, Sungkyunkwan Scandal (2010)
4. Kim Mi So, What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim (2018)
5. Kim Nana, City Hunter (2011)
She also became the other half of some of the giddiest, most sizzling and unforgettable OTP that the viewers rooted for and shippers obsessed with.
Here’s my OTP ranking:
1. Chae Young Shin/Seo Jung Hoo (Healer)
2. Kim Mi So/Lee Young Joon (What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim)
3. Shin Chae Kyung/Lee Yeok (Queen for Seven Days)
4. Kim Nana/Lee Yoon Sung (City Hunter)
5. Kim Yoon Hee/Lee Sun Joon and Kim Yoon Hee/Moon Jae Shin (Sungkyunkwan Scandal)
*this one is quite tricky for me ‘coz I was rooting for MJS in this drama and I’ve suffered some serious Second Lead Syndrome from this one, I almost did not finish the series. But I have to admit that KYH/LSJ as the end game couple definitely makes sense for their characters and the story. Plus having Gu Yong Ha is not bad for MJS.*
Writing this makes me more excited for PMY’s upcoming projects. Fighting unnie!
