The following program is a podcastone.com presentation.
She's a lifestyle blogger extraordinaire.
Fantastic.
And he's a serial entrepreneur.
A very smart cookie.
And now Lauren Everts and Michael Bostic are bringing you along for the ride.
Get ready for some major realness.
Welcome to the skinny confidential, him and her.
Can you get cream tea before we go to the next meeting?
No, gotta move.
Gotta keep it moving.
Hi guys, it's Lauren Eberts from the Skinny Confidential with my lovely, charming husband, Michael Bostic.
Michael Bostic here, coming in live, back again, ready to roll.
Oh my god, Kevin's laughing.
If you guys don't know who Kevin is,
he's our producer and he is laughing his ass off at Michael. I've got my mojo. I'm in a rhythm on
these podcasts. Now I am found the voice. It took me about a year, but I'm here and I'm,
I'm ready to roll. Sometimes I catch him in the mirror, his voice in his blue hairbrush. Yeah. So take that people
who study voiceover and radio because I have nailed it. Okay. You're cut off. So I just got
a really exciting purchase on Amazon. Some of you may have seen it on my Snapchat. It is a camo dog stroller.
Yeah.
And I had to put it together.
You loved every second of it.
Well, you know, when you and I first got together, she did a bunch of useless deadbeats before me.
And none of them knew how to put anything together.
Could barely call themselves men.
Wow.
Shout out to my exes. Yeah, I came into
your life and I started putting together cabinets and shelves and now dog strollers apparently.
But the point is, I am handy and I'm a man. You know what, that is true. My ex-boyfriends could
never put together my Ikea furniture, so I always ended up doing it or I would call my friend Erica
and now you can do everything.
So I just thought helpless. Yeah. You're pretty good at it. Yeah, I'm good. Big mistake though.
Cause what happens is that when I go to the airport now, I don't know what to do. So I make
you do everything and prep everything for me. Like I did the other day. No, I know it's weird.
It's weird being in relationship with you because sometimes I feel, and this might be a little
controversial, but sometimes I feel like I'm dating a paraplegic.
It's almost like sometimes your arms and legs don't work at all.
But then apparently when you're not with me,
you turn into Superwoman and you can do everything.
So I think it's like when you spoil a kid for a really long time
and they act like they can't do anything
and then you leave the room and turn on a camera
and they're like WizKid101, like building skyscraper Legos and like gymnastics and swing
around. So that's like, I feel like that happens. Like there's a whole nother life you lead without
me in it. I act extremely helpless around you. I make you prep everything for me. So it's a ready
to go. It's actually extremely strategic. Yeah, apparently. Okay. So anyways, so we got this camo dog stroller and the reason that
I got it is because we live a high rise. What would you call it? We live in like, yeah, high
rise, a condo building, a condo building. So when Michael leaves me with the dogs and my computer
and my purse upstairs and my coffee and my iced tea, it's very, very hard to carry two dogs with all that
stuff down to the car. So I was like, how can I fix this? So I found this stroller on Amazon where
you can put your purse and your computer and everything kind of underneath it. You put the
dogs in the stroller, you zip it up, you put a little blanket in there for them. And then it has
a coffee holder, a green tea holder, and a water bottle and phone holder.
So it's so efficient.
I just feel like I put everything in my stroller.
I go downstairs.
I close it up.
I put the stroller in the back seat.
The dogs are happy.
And you don't look like an asshole at all when you're doing it.
I might look like an asshole, but you know what?
I'm being a smart asshole.
This is strategic as well.
So just to let everyone know, though, Michael has just discovered that he likes the stroller as well.
Well, I like it when I don't, you know, I'm not going to lie.
Like when I don't have to carry, like you say you have to bring all that stuff down, but it's me.
And so I am liking the efficiency of it.
But I'm not going to lie.
I don't get embarrassed by a lot.
It is a little embarrassing when people run over to check out your baby and they look under the stroller and it's two screaming, barking, biting chihuahuas.
It's not the best look that men give other men.
I think they look cute in it, though, don't you?
Yeah, but it is absurd.
I mean, listen, if you would have asked me five, ten years ago
if I would be running around with two chihuahuas in a stroller,
I would have punched you in the mouth.
And now, here I am.
Married life is treating me well.
I love to manipulate you into walking the dogs in a camo stroller.
All right.
On that note, thank you guys for subscribing, listening, and rating the Skinny Confidential Him and Her podcast on iTunes and Podcast One.
We really appreciate all your reviews.
You guys are all amazing.
I think we're going to do another giveaway soon here for all of you that have rated and subscribed. So if you guys haven't rated or
subscribed, go over, give us five stars, not one star, Michael Bostick. And we're going to continue
to grow this awesome community. Yeah. So if you guys listened last week, I thought it was a really good show. We had Mark Manson on.
And I feel like the reason I like podcasting so much is you kind of, I don't want to say you get access to different things.
But you get access and you get to have conversations with people that you may not get to have if you didn't have a podcast.
So I was thinking the main reason I really like doing
this outside of, you know, hoping to bring some value and entertainment to people's lives is you
get to meet really interesting people and have really interesting conversations. So I think I,
no matter what, I would continue to keep doing it just for that. Yeah. I think podcasting is
similar to blogging in a way. I have got to interview some people that I really admire and some authors and some famous people.
But I think podcasting is a whole different element.
It really is because you get to talk to them and you get to really pick their brain.
And sometimes there's awkward silences and it's just kind of a different dynamic.
Yeah.
So anybody out there listening, now that we're going to start doing more guests, maybe we
should create something where people can request guests and help and we can have the listeners
help us get to people.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We'll definitely, maybe for the next giveaway, we'll do something where you guys like at
who you want interviewed on one of our Instagrams or something.
And also on that note, doing the call-ins two weeks ago was really fun. It's fun to talk to you guys on the phone as opposed to
just talking to you guys over Snapchat or email. It's really interesting to get you guys on the
phone and hear your voice and hear your energy. So we will definitely do another call-in podcast.
Okay. So we are about to get into our interview this week with Sabina Gadecki.
But before that, I want to tell you about RX Bar.
No joke, I think that this is definitely one of my favorite sponsors.
I am obsessed with RX Bar.
So I just put like eight boxes in my office and my whole staff is devouring them. I went to the other day to get
my chocolate sea salt. Is that the one I like? Yeah. You like the chocolate sea salt and the
whole box is gone and I was pissed off legitimately. They are so good. You guys, they're all
normal ingredients, nothing crazy, no BS. They have like dates and nuts and there's 12 grams of
protein in each bar, which is amazing.
So when you're in a pinch, I just carry them in my handbag.
They're gluten-free, they're soy-free, they're dairy-free,
and they contain no added sugar or artificial ingredients.
So it's kind of like my ideal bar in every way.
No BS.
No BS.
Literally.
My favorite one is 100% the peanut butter.
What's yours?
You said chocolate?
I like the chocolate sea salt, but I'm also, I'm liking the chocolate coconut.
I think that that one's a close second.
I like them all though.
This is hands down.
I completely stand behind this bar.
My favorite bar.
If you're ever like looking at 20 million different bars at the grocery store, go for
the RX bar.
They're kind of the love of my life and they're in every handbag I own.
New customers can get 15% off today with free shipping and free returns, which is amazing,
by going to rxbar.com slash the skinny.
That's rxbar.com slash the skinny.
And get a locked cabinet because your friends and family will steal them.

Thank you guys so much for supporting the Skinny Confidential Him and Her podcast. And we really thank you for taking the
time to complete the survey. This is the Skinny Confidential Him and Her. All right. So we are
here with Sabina Gadecki, actress, model, social media star, traveler traveler. Hi guys. Yeah, we're so excited to have you here.
Thank you for having me. I'm excited to be here. We can't wait to get all the deets.
So first introduce yourself. Tell us about you. Tell us about travel, your acting, everything.
Give us the lowdown. Okay. My name is Sabina. I'm from a little town in Massachusetts
called Chicopee. My parents are from Poland. Then I moved to New York, lived there for eight years,
and now I've been here for six. I act and model. Let me see. Last year, I was in the Entourage
movie. I have a few movies coming out this year, which I'm very, very excited about.
Let me see what else.
I guess that's a good intro. That's a great intro. So you lived in New York. First, let's start with
that. Michael and I love New York. Oh, I miss it. It's my favorite place. I would do anything to
move back there. What's it like living there? It's a little chaotic, but I feel like you go
for lunch, and then you run into friends, and then you go run around and have auditions and you run into friends on the street and then you end up at
dinner. And I mean, it's the only city in the world you can leave at nine in the morning and
come back 12 hours later. And I've seen like 15 of your closest friends somehow all in one day.
So you were, you were acting and modeling there or just?
I was, well, I actually went to Fordham for international business. So let's just hope I never have to use that degree.
So I did go to school for that.
And then I took a four-year break and I studied acting at William S. Burr in New York.
I just felt my heart wasn't in business.
But, you know, my parents are from Poland, a hardworking family, and only fallback plan I've got is myself.
So I'm like, you know what?
If acting ever doesn't work out, I better have a degree in that back pocket.
I love that you said the only fallback plan that you have is yourself.
That's amazing.
That's like what the skinny confidential stands for is like doing your own thing and being in your own lane.
Gosh, yeah.
Yeah, I think that's really, really important to just kind of really.
Have your own thing.
Yeah, totally. So when you you're,
you're modeling first and you transition to acting or you're acting and then you transition
to modeling. I was acting first. Um, and I kind of fell into modeling. I just had some
opportunities come along. I was actually hosting this show called the world poker tour on the
travel channel when I was like 21 years old. I used to watch that all the time. You did? Maybe I saw you.
Probably.
I did it like 10 years ago.
I was doing that.
And I just had a bunch of opportunities
to keep coming along to do print work.
And I just didn't have anybody properly
managing me for that.
So I fell into modeling.
So I was with Ford in New York for years.
I'm with Wilhelmina now here.
And they've been great.
But yeah, I fell into it.
I wasn't really seeking that out and I feel lucky to have that.
Thank goodness.
Is modeling as gnarly in New York as they say it is?
Like, is it as strict?
I feel like Ford is known for being so strict.
I mean, thankfully who I was working with there had a lot of fitness clients.
So I used to shoot with Shape Magazine.
I still do here. Shape Magazine, Women's Health. So a lot of the things I was doing weren't
necessarily focused on being as skinny as possible. It was really fitness and lifestyle related. So
thankfully, that's what I was working with. Okay. So tell us about your movies. First,
I want to hear about Entourage. Tell us all there is to know about that. And then I want
to hear about your movies that are coming out.
Entourage was interesting. It was funny. It was an opportunity that came along. And obviously, I was like, oh, God, I want to be in the Entourage movie. And my first audition, the breakdown, my character, everything. And then it says possible nudity. I'm like, all right, possible. I mean, maybe I'm not going to have to do it. Get a call
back. Still says possible nudity. I'm like, here we go. Still got some wiggle room. Third call back,
nudity required. I was like, oh, shit. But you were in at that point. I mean, at this point,
I'm like, my heart's in it. I'm invested. They got me. I mean, they knew what they were doing
by saying the possible nudity because I think everyone in their head was like, oh, we can negotiate this.
And at that point, it was like absolutely non-negotiable.
And then I had a chemistry read with Kevin Connolly, and that was, you know, my fourth time back.
And then I still didn't even have the offer.
They brought me into Warner Brothers for the table read with the entire cast at Warner Brothers videotaped for the DVD lighting everything.
I still don't even have the offer. I'm essentially auditioning for a fifth time in a row at this
point. And I'm at this table read and I'm like, gosh, I hope this isn't awkward. But in the movie,
how my characters introduced is, is that nude scene. And I'm like, at least let me be sitting
close to Kevin that he, my scene was with him. I'm like, at least let me be sitting close to Kevin that he, my scene was with him.
I'm like, at least let me be sitting close to him so I can have like, you know, a conversation with
him up close and not feel uncomfortable. We literally were sitting 50 feet from each other
in this audition or our table read. I'm like, God, this is going to be so awkward. I'm supposed
to be having this intimate moment. I'm essentially auditioning again. He couldn't be any further than from me.
And, um, thank God I got the role, but yeah, I had a talk with my family. I'm like,
guys, what do I do? I'm up for this role. Uh, nudity is required. This is not at all how I
imagined my, my biggest, um, my biggest role. And, you know, thank God there were other scenes
other than that.
I mean, probably five scenes in that movie.
And my parents are from Poland,
so they're like,
what's Entourage?
We're going to Google it.
My mom Googled it,
and she's like,
I looked it up.
Seems like it's a big deal.
And I thought about it.
I'm like, you know what?
Like, I work my ass off.
This is an opportunity that's come my way.
I feel very grateful for it.
And it was basically either do that scene or the offer's not on the table. my ass off. This is an opportunity that's come my way. I feel very grateful for it. And, uh,
and it was basically either, either do that scene or you're the offers not on the table. So it, uh, I did it. Okay. So tell me about when you actually did the scene though. Like
how did you have to have like a drink? I would need a glass of wine. I'll be honest. It might
have had a little brief cocktail hour. Well, here's the thing. First I was supposed to have
like three weeks leading up to shooting it. I hate working out. So I was like three weeks. I can get in shape in three weeks.
Friday, all of a sudden, Kevin texts me. He's like, hey, are you looking forward to shooting
the scene on Monday? I was like, yeah, Monday in three weeks. He's like, no, Monday as in like
three days. I'm like, shit. I'm not in shape at all.
Like, I haven't been working out.
I'm like, oh, God.
So I basically, for three days, ran, like, ten miles a day.
Worked out for, like, five hours a day.
I was, like, sitting in saunas and these weird sweat.
They have these weird sweat beds in L.A.
I don't even know what they are.
Your head sticks out and you're wrapped up and you're just sweating.
What are those called again?
Our friend Steve does those.
Infrared. Infrared. It was awful. I was eating like broccoli and that's it. I just was, by the
time it came time to shoot, I had one drink and I was like, actually half a drink. And I was like,
oh boy, that was, that half a drink was a little aggressive. But, um, yeah, it's, it's a little
awkward, but I, I, uh, thankfully was really professional, and it was a closed set.
And Doug Allen and everybody else involved was super professional
and made an uncomfortable situation as comfortable as possible.
That's amazing.
It's so fun to hear the behind the scenes of the nudity.
Okay.
Speaking of the Entourage movie and nudity,
what did mom and dad have to say about that
when you sat down to have family movie night?
Boy, well, my family's very excited and proud of me.
And so they were all in attendance with me in New York.
And when I say all, I mean my mom, my dad, my brother,
my sister-in-law, my godmother,
and my uncle. And we're all in the car heading over together. And I'm like, guys, I've got to
warn you. I've got a lot of scenes in the movie. You don't need to watch the first one. So don't
think you're going to miss me. But here's what you're going to hear leading up to my scene. And
I gave them the dialogue. And then I said, so look down, you hear this dialogue, look down about 30 seconds. Then
you hear this dialogue. That's when I give you permission to look up. So I'm watching the scene
come up and my God, this is the first time I'm seeing it on this level of a screen because I
went in for ADR and, you know, to do some sound looping and stuff.
And I saw it, you know, saw it on this little TV and I'm seeing it on this giant screen. I'm like,
oh my Lord, I don't even know how uncomfortable this is going to be for me. So the moment's coming.
I look over at them. I give them the thumbs up. I'm like, this is when you got to look down.
Everyone's like, yeah, yeah, we got it. We got it. The scene comes on. I turn around because I don't
want to see it. I turn around and look.
My entire family's watching it.
They're all watching it.
I don't know what the hell.
No one looked down.
After the thing, it was just this really awkward thing because my dad's like, good job, my uncle.
Good job, my brother.
They're all so proud of me, but I think they were, it was like the elephant in the room for a little bit.
But, you know, I think that they just got pumped because, now that came out wrong.
Might not be the best way, or better getting pumped.
I used the wrong word.
I think they were just really proud of me.
And knowing that that moment was coming up, I feel like they were like, just really didn't get the cue there.
And they were just all watching, you know, and then I'm like, look, look away.
Stop it.
Stop looking.
So what was the conversation like afterwards?
They're just like, probably congratulatory.
Literally never mentioned ever.
It was like super focused on the acting.
They're like, my God, you blew me away with your acting.
I was like.
It's like if you're an older brother and you ever walk in on your sister with a guy or something, it's just like you just never talk about it again.
You just run away and pretend it never happened.
So scrub your brain with like a sponge or something.
It was awkward.
But, you know, they're just they're just really supportive and they just know how hard I've worked to get to this place.
So it was it was they were watching with, you know, pride to see, you know, how far I've come. That still this place. So they were watching with pride to see how far I've come.
That still sounds weird.
Nothing I say sounds right talking about this moment.
It all comes out wrong.
But yeah, I warned them.
Fair warning.
So I want to jump around a little bit then after that.
So we were talking before when you first came in here
and you were mentioning that you actually ended up dating Kevin.
And this did this come about after or how much longer?
About about six months after, you know, we I was recently single at that time.
We worked together and everybody was just really, you know, professional.
There was there was nothing at all.
And we worked together.
And that day that was my last day shooting was that day.
We saved that scene for last.
So thankfully, we had worked together for a few days and got to know each other.
And then by the time that scene came along, that day he texts me, and he's like,
really nice working with you.
I'm sure he loved it.
He's like, I hope that wasn't uncomfortable for you.
I mean, he had these panties on that he had to wear that basically
tuck everything. I mean, it was
the furthest thing from being a sexy scene in the
world, let me tell you. I had
weird taped up parts.
I mean, it's just not sexy. I think people
are like, oh, it must have been hot. It's like not
even a tiny little bit.
I've heard that. I've heard people that do nude scenes
like guys think it's going to be this sexy
thing and you get there and it's just everyone's wearing tape.
Do the guys have boners, though?
Does everyone have a boner?
I didn't see the situation.
We weren't dating at the time, so I never saw it.
So I think I hear from his explanation there was some thing that's really snug and tucks things away.
Yeah, they make you, like, wear a thing.
Yeah, there's a thing that tucks things away.
Wait, can you wear this thing in the bedroom?
I want you to do this for fun.
I'm going to order one off Amazon.
I'll be honest.
From what I did see, I tried not to look, but from what I did see, it's like a nude
panty.
It packs it in there real tight.
Do you have a pair?
You sound like you're a professional.
Maybe I'll get one on Amazon.
I'll be honest.
You seem to be educated about it.
I was listening to Howard Stern a while back, and somebody was talking about it, and he
was being really funny about it.
I guess in his movie, Pirate Parts, he didn't wear it, and he was super excited.
But everyone else that's professional wears it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So he said he was fully hard during the bathtub scene.
Wait.
Wait.
It makes you so you're not hard?
Yeah.
You can't.
It mashes you in.
Yeah.
I've heard about it. Wait. So if you have a boner like it like mashes you in yeah i've heard about it wait it's
so if you have a boner it actually takes the boner away i honestly i was like doing everything i was
like i can't look down i'm a professional i'm not gonna look there but yeah apparently that's what
i was told it just basically just really cuts off all circulation i would have had a magnifying
glass out i'm so curious about stuff i'm gonna go google it after this i want to know if they're wearing it you might need a magnifying glass that's amazing so so curious about stuff. I'm going to go Google it after this. I want to know everything about it. If you're wearing it, you might need a magnifying glass.
That's amazing. So I'm going to jump around a little bit more. So that was not your first
role. That was not your first movie. No. Um, so in New York I had worked on white collar
law and order. Um, I'd been on house of house of lies here with Don Cheadle. Um,
I did, uh, but that was my most exciting thing.
I think my biggest, the biggest stage of anything
that I've ever really worked on.
I did a movie shortly after that with Tony Goldwyn
called Outlaw Prophet with Tony Goldwyn and Molly Parker.
That was just a really amazing, incredible experience.
It was funny because one month I was playing in Entourage
and then literally the next month I'm playing a polygamist cult wife in, you know, very different,
very different. I enjoyed that experience a bit more, just get to act a little more. And it was
just more fulfilling as an actor for sure. That sounds amazing. It sounds like you've
been on a lot of different shows. So if someone, I know you come from a small town.
If someone is out there that wants to be an actress or a model and they come from a small town, what would you recommend?
What can they do?
Is there any tip or trick or a shortcut maybe or something?
Or is it just hard work?
I guess what we're looking for is how much hustle did it take to put you in a position to get these roles?
Because I know it's not easy.
No. To be to be completely honest. No, it's, it's been, you know, I come from the small town that,
I mean, not a small town, but just small town in comparison to, you know, this, this world of
acting and modeling and everything. And I had zero connections, zero resources, nobody to help me.
And a lot of people who discouraged me, you know, and I'd talk about like, I really want to do this.
And people would be like, oh, well, maybe get that college degree, which don't get me
wrong.
I'm so glad that I did, but it's hard to pursue something when sort of everyone is
essentially knocking it.
So I think that was challenging, but I think, you know, I've been doing it for about 10
years now and just start, you know, now I'm like having some success in it.
Like it's, it's tough. I mean, can you imagine essentially going to a job every single day
and not getting a paycheck, not getting a, you know, it's, it's a tough job to sort of stay
positive in, but yep, we get it big time. No, I really relate to you because, um, I was at
San Diego state and I was bored, bored, bored. And I decided that I wanted to be
a blogger. And this is six years ago. So people didn't like a blogger. What? How are you going
to make money? What do you mean? And I was like, no, I have this like idea. And it's the same way.
It's every single day, seven days a week, not getting paid a dime for three years. And then
you start to kind of gain traction and people are like, oh, it happened overnight. And you're like,
no. Yeah. That's what I think. I have a lot of people traction and people are like, oh, it happened overnight. And you're like, no.
Yeah, that's what I think.
I have a lot of people and it's flattering, but they'll send me a message and say, hey, my son wants to do this.
What's your advice?
And it's just really hard to give.
I mean, I've been working really hard for so long and I feel so lucky. I have the best team around me between my agents and my managers and everybody in my life.
I feel so lucky to have them.
It definitely was a hustle to get here.
I just had no resources, and I just had to sort of start taking those workshops,
and that kind of led to another workshop.
I mean, some people move to L.A., and it does happen in that one day.
There's some people who've been here for 40 years, and it's never happened.
And, you know, I don't think there's any right way to do it,
but I feel so grateful to be in this place. But I've worked my butt off. No, it sounds like the common
denominator with everyone we interview that has gained any type kind of success is that it is a
hustle. It's every day. You have to ride it every day. You have to want it and it's discipline and
no one can do it for you. And I think the thing that's hardest is you go for an audition and you
work your butt off. I mean, just studying for it, getting coached for it, going in there,
and you could kill it.
It could be the best audition you've ever had.
But the reason you don't get it is maybe you're too tall.
Maybe you're too short.
Maybe they need some diversity in the show.
That's really important these days.
So, I mean, whatever reason you don't get the job,
a lot of the time has nothing to do with your talent.
So I think that that's just something that's like hard to, you know, to not beat yourself up over every day to
be like, you know, I am good enough for this, but I can't take it personal because the reason I got
the job could have absolutely nothing to do with what I actually did in that audition.
No, we talk about a lot of time, like one of the biggest themes of this show is patience and
persistence. And I think a lot of people, I get, I get messages all the time.
Like, Hey, I started this business three months ago, six months ago, and it's not working.
What should I do?
I say, keep going.
I mean, it's been three to six months.
You're not going to have success that quickly and you don't deserve success that quickly.
You got to put in the time.
So it's, it's refreshing to hear like everyone we interview, they say time, time, a lot of
work, like beating through discouragement and going, going, persistence, patience.
Not listening to naysayers.
Not listening to what people say.
So yeah, that's, that's why I was curious to figure out how you got that start and how
long it's been, but it's, it's been a long time.
Yeah, it's been about 10 years.
And I think also for me, I think I fall, you know, although I'm, you know, excited and
very proud of Entourage and having done that movie, but I've worked very, very hard as an actress and I've trained and studied and I
just know work-wise, I can't wait to finally have the opportunities come my way that aren't that
stereotypical blonde, but like it is what it is for now. Like I'm so grateful to be getting called
in the room for these particular roles to even be, you know, in the running for it. But I can't wait till I, people start taking a chance on me for the
challenging roles that I know I can do. You know what I mean? Totally. You, you seem very authentic
and down to earth, um, kind of the opposite of the stereotypical Hollywood actress. So how do you
deal with, you know, cattiness and maybe stuff that you're just like,
no, thank you. Um, I think it's hard not to, I'm really sensitive. I think it's hard not to like,
just take all that in. And I think I just, you know, sometimes you get wrapped up in it and
caught up in it and your feelings get hurt. And then I just need to take a step back and,
you know, take a visit home with my family and feel grounded again and just hang out with, you know, the people that love you the most for all the right reasons.
But, yeah, it's definitely hard not to get wrapped up in it and care what people think.
It's definitely a challenge.
It seems cutthroat a little bit.
And sometimes the blogging industry can be like that, too.
And it kind of, like, makes me push back on networking.
I'm not the biggest networker, and that is kind of part makes me push back on networking. Um, I'm not the biggest networker and that is
kind of part of my industry, but I've kind of like pushed away from it because it feels catty.
No, it's the same. And people will always be like, Sabina, you should go to this party.
You should go to this event. And I said, why? There's never going to be a day that I'm going
to leave a party after having drinks with some director or producer. And they're going to be
like, you know what? I want her in my movie. That's just never going to happen. We're on the same page.
The only way it's going to happen is working hard and being good. Like that's how, that's how
doors are going to open for me, not at a party or an event. And I think that that's the thing that
I've had to really learn and balance out in my life. Because when I first moved here,
you kind of get that in your head coming from a town without that opportunity really readily around.
Everyone's like, you got to go and network and go to Sundance and do this.
And you, I mean, I never want to go to Sundance unless I have a real reason to be there.
Unless I have a movie there or, or any of these things.
Like I don't want to go unless I have a reason to be there.
Not that we'd have a movie there, but that is like, that's like, I just think that we're the same way.
Like we're like very,
like we're almost homebodies.
We just want to spend time with people that we really love.
And I'd rather put my head down and really work.
And if I'm going to be spending time with anyone,
it's going to be,
um,
the people that are reading my blog or,
um,
like the audience and the engagement.
That's more important to me than like kind of climbing your way up to the top through other people. Well, talent's a variable, right? You mean hard work and hard engagement, that's more important to me than like kind of climbing your way up to the top through other people.
Well, talent's the variable, right?
You mean hard work and hard work, but talent's the variable.
So like you said, I mean, you're not going to get a role if you don't have the talent
anyway.
So if you're just going to these things and networking, a lot of people try to take that
approach in every industry, business, blogging, acting.
But if you don't have the talent, you don't put in the hard work, it's not going to work
out that way.
Someone's not just going to put you in a movie because they like the way your personality
is.
I mean, don't get me wrong.
If, say, I was at an event and I met somebody who I had, some director that I really, you
know, we just chatted it up and had, you know, someone who's a really nice person.
And then I auditioned for the movie.
And then I have a callback.
And then I'm at a screen test or whatever.
That relationship at that point could possibly help me.
I don't know.
But it's not going to get me in the door.
I've got to get myself to that point.
And I think that's what people fail to notice so often.
I love it.
Sabina is going to tell us all about what it's like dating in Hollywood.
But before that, let's talk about Blue Apron.
So I am basically Mario
Battelli in the kitchen now. I am sprinkling salt. I'm seasoning meats. I'm whipping up
pastas. I'm making sauces. And it's all thanks to my friends at Blue Apron. They have fresh
ingredients and they deliver a beautiful box right to your door, which is so efficient and amazing.
Their meats are incredible.

Their stuff is just always on point.
Yeah, and it's impressive when you come up and you're just like, yo, I just cooked the cashew chicken stir fry with tango mandarin and jasmine rice.
And you're like, what?
He does do that too.

And you have it on the table.
You're ready to go.

i can't even imagine.
We live up here a couple times a month and it seems like it would be very hard to date
in this town.
I have never been single.
I don't know what it's like.
I was single, you know, very recently and I was just met the most incredible man.
I mean, I just met this guy and I was like, gosh, I'm not ready to date.
Just got out of a relationship.
And how do you meet him?
Do you meet him through a dating app or do you meet him walking down the street?
How do you meet him?
It sounds so corny.
So I go to church every week and I was at Stagecoach last May
and my boyfriend is in country music.
And a bunch of my friends from church were there
and they are friends with him.
He lives in Nashville.
And everyone was just sitting there, you know,
hitting and chatting it up.
And he's like, looks at me and he's like,
do I know you from somewhere?
And I really, he did look familiar to me,
but I just don't know how to flirt.
And I just felt-
That's the classic line.
I don't know how to flirt.
I was uncomfortable.
So I just kind of said it back. I was like, you look familiar too, even though I don't
really know if you did. I just was so uncomfortable. I'm honestly just never been single. And,
um, and he was talking to me and he just said the most beautiful eyes and most beautiful
smile. And I was like, I need to get the hell out of here. And I ran away. I was like, nice
meeting you. He's like, what's your name? I'm like, Sabina. He's like, I'm going to
look you up on Instagram. I was like, okay, bye. And I literally like ran away from him.
And this is who I've been with for about nine months now. And he's incredible and kind and
lovely and just like the most gentle soul in the world. So opposite of Hollywood. Yeah. Yeah. He
actually hates, he hates the scene. He hates hates any of the trendy places.
It's kind of a breath of fresh air.
Speaking of fresh air and social media and Instagram, you took a little break.
I did.
And we were talking a little bit about it.
Why did you take your break?
You know, just for a couple weeks, which seems silly, but we get so consumed in it.
I noticed I was sitting there.
I'd come home, and I'd sit on my phone for five or six hours and just go through Instagram and Snapchat and Facebook.
And I was responding to people that aren't a part of my daily life.
And I realized me sitting here on my phone responding to strangers and getting caught up in other people's stories. I wasn't being present with the people in my life. I wasn't, you know, I was so wrapped up in posting pictures and
capturing moments that I'm, you know, especially became evident over Christmas with my family.
I was just like with the Instagram video and the Instagram pictures and then Snapchat and all this
stuff, I just was so consumed in it. And I realized once the holidays were over, I'm like,
wow, I really didn't spend as much time with my family and I didn't value that time with them.
So I said, you know, I'm going to take a little break and I'm going to get back on it. It's
kind of, unfortunately the, the business that we're in and I've realized how important it is,
but it's interesting to talk about because you have like the one side of it where, you know,
it takes you out of the present moment, right. And it's distracting, but then you have the one side of it where it takes you out of the present moment, right? And it's distracting.
But then you have the other side of it with the career you're pursuing.
You kind of need it.
And it's now a variable of success, which in my life, I think it's a good thing just
because I come from that industry.
But I can understand for some people it's difficult.
So how do you balance that now?
You know, I'm going to be getting back into it. I think this weekend I was
like, this will be my cutoff. I think it's hard because it is so important. I mean, so often I'll
go to things and people will just straight up ask how many followers do you have? And I'm definitely
not, I mean, I probably post, you know, like twice a month, but I've really got to step that up
because it is important for our industry. It gives people an inside look of, of getting to know you
in a personal relationship,
of like, what are you like?
What's your personality like?
And I think it's really crucial.
I kind of hate it sometimes, but, I mean, it is what it is,
and I have to just, you know, play the game, I guess.
We were saying before earlier, the podcast,
that it feels narcissistic to have to, like, post pictures of yourself.
Yeah.
Trust me, I feel the same way.
Sometimes I'm like,
I have to post another picture,
but it almost propels you forward within social media.
So it's a double edged sword,
which is kind of,
that's exactly what it is.
Because I sit there and I'm like,
I look at my page.
I'm like,
I want to post pictures of like my niece and my family.
But the reality is like,
no one really wants to see those things
maybe once in a while but i think you'd be surprised i think it's i think it depends on
the type of audience you're trying to cultivate yeah yeah you know and um she doesn't do like
you i feel like don't do like you don't try to show your assets to get followers like you totally
could do that i mean sometimes i'm like i want to put a butt shot up sometimes i it, but you don't know. She, you use the reason that I wanted to interview
you is because when I saw you, you seem like you have a lot of substance and I recognize that
through social media. I love how, I love how you're giving me such a sweet compliment. And I
just shot like a, like a, out of the barrel of this interview being like, I was naked in the
entourage movie. Hi guys. Nice to meet you. No, I feel like that's your craft.
Thank you.
You seem like you have a lot of substance as an actress, and I think that's rare.
I saw that.
You can see that through your social media.
Thank you.
You guys got a follower on Instagram.
What's your handle?
It's just my name, Sabina Gadecki.
That complicated.
You have to spell it.
G-A-D-E-C-K-I.
It's like Sabrina, but no R.
Okay.
Love it.
You guys will see, too, that she traveled to a bunch of places.
Tell us about where you've traveled. Is it for movies? Is it for fun? Is it for both?
This summer was just the best. I was actually shooting a movie in Vancouver for a month with
Jesse Metcalf. So that'll be coming out this year. His wife's a blogger, right?
I don't know. I don't know much, but I just know he absolutely loves and adores her beyond belief.
And just hearing him talk about her was just like a really special thing to see.
So we were there for the whole month of January shooting up there.
And, um, so that was incredible.
And it's called the ninth passenger.
It's going to be coming out this year.
And, um, after that it was Doug Allen actually who directed entourage.
He had a little, a little party, so to speak, in Italy.
And him and his fiancee out there.
So we just flew out there, me and a bunch of my friends, and spent the summer there or a week there.
And then I was like, well, I'm already in Italy.
I might as well keep it going. So then I went from the Amalfi Coast to Rome, then Barcelona, and then Ireland.
And then I was like, I probably should get back to LA
and work sometimes those are all places you want to go yeah did you like Ireland I loved it um I
want to go to Rome I loved Rome I went last year for the Entourage movie because we had a premiere
in London and then we went to Rome right after I I loved it I went twice in one year I feel like
one time is solid yeah twice in one year is I feel like one time is solid. Yeah. Twice
in one year is like a lot, but both experiences were so different, but you definitely should go
like once in a lifetime. I think everyone should go for sure. Okay. So if you read the skinny
confidential, you know that I just did a whole wall in our house dedicated to our wedding photos.
And I was feeling like I kind of didn't know what I wanted to do
with them because I didn't want them in the bedroom. Like I didn't want to have like a
Shina Marie Vanderpump rules moment. I wanted them to have their own wall in a, in a pretty
space in the hallway. And I wasn't quite sure how to go about it. So I was introduced to frame bridge
and it was kind of amazing because it was so efficient. Basically you send your photos in and they just
send them back to you and they're framed and they look perfect. And you know how when you frame
something, there's like a hair or a crumb or a piece of sourdough toast, like in the frame,
that doesn't happen with frame bridge. It's just a clean, it looks beautiful.
And they supply these little hooks that you can just hang the frame on the wall.
So we put our wedding
photos in our hallway and frame them all different heights. And doesn't it look cute? You know what?
It's funny. I didn't even know it was being done. And, um, I came home and loved it. I walked in
and loved it. Well, I saw a giant picture of myself right there. I was like, well, that looks
pretty good. Oh my God. Then I saw some other photos. I was like, those are okay. But I highly
recommend frame bridge. If you're looking to do like a studio wall in your house, it's easy to use. It's efficient. It's affordable.
It's quality. And they have an expert team there that will custom frame your items in a couple
days. I even got our invite framed. So you can also do a memorabilia get started today. Framing
your photos or art, go to framebridge.com and use promo code skinny
you'll save an additional 15 off your first order just go to framebridge.com promo code skinny i
feel like for some brownie points that's a good valentine's day gift before we go i want to hear
about your entire story of your whole transition so you you said that you were a model, you're in New York.
How do you get from New York to LA? Like, tell me like that, how that happens just for people
out there that are listening, that maybe want to get into this world. And how much different is it
between the two places? Cause obviously they're both the media capitals of the United States.
You've got New York, which is a lot of media and PR over there. And then you have here,
which is Hollywood and movies and actresses. So what's like, what's the big differentiator?
Let's see.
Well, when I was living in New York, I really didn't want to move to LA.
I was like, I just, I just love the city so much, but an opportunity came for me to move.
And I said, I might as well take this.
And there's just, there is a lot more opportunity here for acting for sure.
I mean, all the studios are out here.
I love it. I really, really do love it out here. Um, it was funny. One of my first auditions here and just sat there, I felt like I stood out more in New York, just, you know, my type.
So I just, when I first moved here, I was sitting in an audition and I just looked around the room
and I'm like, my God, I look like every single girl in this room. How do I stand out? And I just looked around the room and I'm like, my God, I look like every single girl in this room.
How do I stand out?
And I just started, my head started spinning and started feeling insecure.
I go, I got to get out of here.
I went and sat on the stairs outside of the casting office.
And I was like, you know, I had to remind myself, like, I've worked my ass off.
I deserve to be here.
I'm not like every other girl.
And it's funny.
I just took that minute to ground myself.
And I walked in the room and I booked my first movie, Being Here.
It was a movie I did with Christian Slater,
and it was my first audition here, and it just was like,
you know what, I just think having confidence in yourself
and just reminding yourself that even though we might all look very similar being out here,
that everyone brings a little something different to the table.
Yeah, I think your personality, too, is huge.
Like, I mean, you can tell, like, your personality.
You're very confident.
You have a lot of strength and warmth, as Michael would say, a compelling person.
Compelling person.
Yes.
Aw.
I also am dying to know about, like, your wellness tips.
You have a great figure.
Thank you.
You guys got a—if you don't know who this is, you have to Google her.
She's beautiful.
Tell us, like, what do you eat?
What's a day-to-day?
Are you super healthy?
Are you not so healthy?
I am probably the biggest yo-yo dieter ever.
There'll be six months where I just rage and just eat whatever I want and don't work out.
And then there's that day where I wake up and I'm like, shit, it's all caught up to
me, which is basically happened about two weeks ago.
Um, and so these last two weeks I've just been back and, and just, I love, it's weird.
I just crave shitty food.
I crave pizza, French fries and Doritos.
I would eat McDonald's French fries for every, it's truly my favorite food in the entire
world.
And it's all I would eat all
day long if I didn't end up getting a fat ass from it. But I do have to work hard. It's weird.
My whole family's very, very thin, but I do have to work. I do have to work at it. I, you look
great. Lauren was dieting. I don't know what you were doing. You were doing some regiment,
but I really want to in and out. And I got it. And then I came home, but I was like, shit,
if I go up with this in and out, she gonna like well he could have got it for me protein style
you dick so i had i just i ate it i ate it pathetically in my car down in the garage i
hate to admit it but it's true no like then you then he comes up with the with the it's like
that's why he walks up with it and i go did you go to in and out then right away you're like uh
no it's actually funny sometimes i crack my boyfriend's eating very, very healthy right now.
And I'm like, he's like, Sabina, you are a bad influence on me.
I'm like, I'm eating healthy with you.
I'm right there with you.
And it was just one of those days I was running around and I just, I drive by McDonald's and I don't know what happens.
It just, I just, I get weak.
And I just went through drive-thru and I got a large fry. number one number two you're not gonna you know once in a while you gotta live
listen let me live yeah so i came home and i did the same thing i ate the fries in the car and do
you know how he called me out he got in the car a few hours later he's like it smells like fries
fries and tears that sounds like you know it's like uh all i ask is that when you go to
in and out you bring me a protein style burger with raw i know you were like that sounds good
you were working hard you know no a protein style is fine and i ate two okay that's great that's
great i'm telling the truth i would feel like in hollywood and in new york i would feel a lot of
pressure from the industry to be a certain body type and
be a certain way. Do you, I mean, you, you are very thin and you look amazing, but like,
do you ever feel like that? Do you feel that pressure? Yeah, for sure. Um, I'd like to say
no, but it's definitely, I'd like to say no. Yeah. I mean, like I said, it was a few weeks ago. I
mean, right after the holidays where I was like, it's pilot season.
It's the busiest time for acting right now.
And I just was like, this is not, I don't feel my best.
I need to get back in shape.
And I noticed you asked me that question about how am I in shape.
And I told you I eat McDonald's fries all day.
But to get back to what you asked me is I have to change it up every day.
I get very bored.
So I take a different class every day, Pilates and yoga and spin. I just, I have to change it up every day. I get very bored. So I take a different class every day, Pilates and yoga and spin.
I just have to change it up.
I just won't go.
I try to have a big breakfast because what ends up happening is if I don't eat breakfast or lunch,
then I just crave shit all day long and just eat terribly at night.
But, yeah, there's definitely those pressures because, gosh,
appearance is basically
everything. Unfortunately in this industry, a lot of pressure. I can see even it's kind of
trickling almost down to the blogger influencer, um, profession too. Sometimes I see that like
these influencers that I followed, they get thinner and thinner and thinner. I, by the way,
there's some people that I've unfollowed for that reason.
Yeah.
I actually got an email from a reader that was like, yeah, I've been following these influencers and it's triggering.
It is.
I don't know if it's necessarily anyone's fault.
I just think you have a lot of eyes on you, right?
And when you have that kind of pressure and you have the way our society is set up and
people commenting on figures and everything. It can be tough.
I feel for the women out there.
I guess guys get a little bit, but
not nearly what women get.
It's pretty bad.
Maybe you don't get this, but what do you
do when you get negative comments?
Do you fight back? Do you delete it?
Do you not talk?
I just realized pretty early on,
back to when I was hosting that show years ago, I, it was exciting at that point. I was like, oh my gosh, I'm all over the internet. This is cool. And I started Googling my name and, and you would see literally 200 positive comments. And then that one negative, it just like, it just cuts you to the core. And I, I just realize about myself, I can't look at it.
Just don't look. I don't want to see what people are saying. I just work hard every day and I just
can't Google myself because it'll hurt my... One negative thing will really hurt me. So I just
don't look. It's funny. I think you and Lauren are similar in that way, but Lauren, there's a site
and I don't want to give it too much credit, but Lauren showed it to me one time and she's, she came to me and she was like very, very nervous.
She's like, I've, you know, I've been meaning to tell you this and I don't really know how
to tell you this, but there's this site and it's saying like a lot of really mean things
and I've been really upset about it and I don't know how to tell you.
And I took it as like, oh good.
Like finally someone's talking about me.
Like I got, like I'm here.
He like loved it.
He was like, he was like,
you wanted to like print it out and like frame it.
But I think,
no,
I think I had a buddy,
a buddy tell me a long time ago.
He's like,
if they're not hating on you,
then you're doing,
then you're doing something wrong.
Right.
Because if you're,
if nobody's talking about you and there's no buzz,
then you,
then really who are you performing for?
Right.
You got,
you got to have the,
the,
that certain demographic that's going to take things personally.
They're going to get angry and that's okay. That's part of it. But if
nobody's talking, you're like, shit. Yeah. You know, who actually said something to, to, you
know, Mark Wahlberg actually had said something, um, to one of the guys in the movie. And, um,
you know, it was when the show had just started taking off and they had been really upset.
They're like, God, there's this negative stuff about me. And he was just sort of kind of venting to Mark about it.
And Mark said, congratulations, buddy.
You made it.
Yeah.
I like Mark Wahlberg.
Imagine how much stuff he's said about him.
Yeah, and I think that at the end of the day, it hurts.
But then you realize you've got to consider the source.
And at least it's, I guess, a form of flattery to be even talked about.
Yeah, I agree, though.
Just don't
look at it you also like you got to deploy empathy in that case and the when when i think about
people talking and saying negative things i actually feel worse for them than for myself
because you got to think like what is that like what is it that they're projecting that they're
feeling exactly why what are you so upset about that you got to put that negativity out in the
world and so that's why you know there's a there's a guy I listen to all the time named Jocko Willink,
and he's an ex-Navy SEAL.
He was like a SEAL commander.
He's a really intense guy.
He's got a podcast that we like.
And he basically said,
you can't be disrespected by somebody who doesn't respect themselves.
I like that.
When you think about it, it's like...
That's a good one.
That's a good one.
Yeah, you start to think about the source,
and you're like, okay, there's an issue going on where
this person's upset and you feel, I don't want to say sorry because you're not feeling
sorry for them, but you're like, that person's hurting.
And so when you think about it like that, it's hard to get upset.
I also was just reading something where it said, and I'm obsessed with this right now
for some reason.
I snapchatted it.
That says that when you're criticizing other people, it's because you're
not living your authentic truth and they maybe are, and you're criticizing them for living their
authentic truth. And it's making you kind of like deflect. Couldn't agree more with that.
I noticed that even with myself, when I'm feeling, I'm just, when you feel good about yourself and
just in a great headspace, I feel positive thoughts for other people. But then there's those moments where I feel, I don't know, we all have it when we're feeling
insecure at whatever, a party or whatever the case may be.
And then I notice I start to like shit talk and, and point out negative things about somebody
else.
And I, and now I've become aware of that.
I'm like, no, this is me in this moment, just not feeling my best today for whatever the
reason might be.
But yeah, I think that that's a hunt. it's always generally a projection of how someone's feeling
about themselves.
My dad says a quote all the time and it's probably from somebody a lot more prophetic
than him, me, but it's basically along the lines of smile and the world smiles with you
cry and you cry alone.
I like that.
Kevin's shaking his head.
He loves that one.
I like it.
I'm into that one.
So what are the next movies?
Tell us all about what's to come.
Okay, so the two I did this year, the one I did with Jesse Metcalf, it's going to be coming out hopefully this summer.
It's a horror movie. It's called The Ninth Passenger.
I can't wait to see it.
I've only seen the trailer so far. And then I did another one called Welcome to Willits.
Okay. and we filmed that in Shreveport, Louisiana and that's got Rory Culkin, Macaulay Culkin's brother
Bill Sage, Karuchi Tran
it's a great cast
and I did actually see that one, I'm really excited about that one
that was actually one of the most fun projects I've ever worked on
I played a meth addict
and it was just amazing
I just looked like an animal Oh, my gosh. Wait, you played him like that? Did you have to lose more weight to play that?
I let my hair grow.
I mean, I just looked like an animal.
I mean, it was crazy.
I let my roots grow out for like three months.
And when I'd go in for hair and makeup, they'd give me acne.
They'd give me basically like sores around my mouth.
I mean, I looked crazy.
And we're filming.
This is actually funny.
I just got so used to looking that way.
And everybody just got so used to me looking that
way. And I, you know, for the month that we were shooting and one night I just left set with the
makeup on, you know, and we all were going to hang out in our hotel rooms. And I'm like, let's stop
at the gas station and get some drinks, get some wine and stuff. And I walk into this gas station
with this meth makeup on. And again, the actors that I'm with,
they're just used to seeing me in this way
and they knew I'm about to shower when I get back.
I walk into the gas station
and the guy at the counter doesn't
skip a beat, looks at me
sincerely and he's like, are you looking for
the antifreeze?
What's antifreeze? I don't know what that is.
It's for making meth. I didn't know that and I was like,
uh, no, I'm looking for...
Wait, there's something you can buy to make meth?
Yeah, meth is made in a...
You want me to give you a whole rundown how it's done?
No, no, no, wait, okay.
Wait, so he asks you if you're looking for that?
So he doesn't even...
I mean, I just run in there quickly because everyone's waiting on me.
And I was having the party that night.
I'm like, I'm going to get the wine and stuff from my hotel room.
So I run in kind of in a frenzy.
And I look at him.
I'm like, do you have the...
And he just cuts me off. He's like, antifreeze. I'm like, uh, no, I'm looking for the Pinot Noir.
Oh my. And then I go to the car. I'm like, this guy asked me that. And then one of the guys is
like, yeah, he probably thought you were a real meth addict. And I'm like, I do look crazy.
You learn something new every day. Now I know how to make meth.
We have the bathtub at home.
We're going to start a whole new profession.
Breaking bad.
Okay, so when you're on set and it's not in LA, it's in Louisiana, what is that like?
I can only imagine that there would be like a buzz.
I love it.
Yeah.
I love it.
I mean, it's just so fun.
You get so close with everybody and you have these little families and you get to have
these experiences.
When I filmed Outlaw Prophet, we were in New Mexico.
When I filmed that movie with Christian Slater, I was in Detroit.
When I did this one, we were in Shreveport, Louisiana.
Oh, this one's called Welcome to Willits.
I don't know if I mentioned that, but I've never been there.
And we hang out in these small towns and explore karaoke bars,
and it's just so much fun.
Being on location shooting a movie is probably the best experience ever.
So now that that's done,
are you jumping into something else right away or is you have a little break
now or how does that work?
Well,
it's pilot season now.
What does that mean?
I don't know.
I know pilots,
but like to explain what that means.
So it's basically all the networks are like casting all their new shows.
So it is basically the busiest time of the year for actors.
And until I know for sure, I can't mention it,
but I've got a couple of things sort of on hold at the moment.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So it's like a lot of auditions and running around.
Yeah, a lot of auditions.
I mean, I had seven on Thursday, which is like, it's tough.
Also, because I do the
modeling as well, and then I have the acting and then I do voiceovers as well. So any day,
some days I have absolutely nothing. Some days I wake up and I can't make it to Santa Monica to my
agency to do a voiceover. So I've got my microphone and in between auditions, I mean, people think
it's like this glamorous life and I like bust my ass. So this was actually last Thursday.
I basically woke up.
I had one at 10 a.m.
Left there was changing fully in my car, just changing, like, you know, pull over on the
side of the road.
Then I had a voiceover recording that in my microphone, editing it in the car, sending
it over.
I mean, it's such chaos this time of year, but I'm grateful for it.
I mean, thank God I could be sitting home doing nothing.
That's amazing.
That's a lot of work. It's a hustle, that's for sure. It sounds like
my chaotic. It's always something new. You have to be a jack of all trades. Okay. So what is your
dream role? Like what's, if you could pick any movie, what do you want to play? I just, I think
not that I want to keep playing meth addicts, but I think that was one of the most rewarding things, I think, for me.
Because something along those lines where I could really transform if I had to lose 20 pounds or gain 50 pounds.
Something that I could really...
Like methadacting?
Yeah, I just would love to be anything but myself.
Anything but what I'm generally stereotyped for being.
So for me, a role of
that sort is just would make me so happy. But I mean, listen, I'm not going to complain that
I'm going in for what I am currently going in for, but that would be kind of my dream role for sure.
You are so interesting. You're so adorable. It's so nice to meet you.
Thank you for having me.
