So, as some of my regular readers know, I like to follow the antics of Paula Abdul on occasion for my own personal entertainment. Recently, she was interviewed in Glamour magazine. If you will - a tiny excerpt:
Do look for a way past "no". My first audition to become a Laker Girl was a cattle call and no one even saw me. i got cut immediately, but I sneaked into another room, changed my leotard, put on brighter tights and changed my hair. Then I went back in and used my middle name - and I got it!
Needless to say - I find this story a little crazy - but GOOD crazy. Perhaps there's a fine line between bad crazy and good crazy. And this woman toes said line quite often. However, I enjoy something about this story - in fact, I might feel a twinge inspired. The next time I don't get a job or something of the like, maybe I'll send in a resume under another name. Rock on, Ms. Abdul!
