Tobor7 | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 03:43 am     You're a big hollywood talent agent. You've got your cigar in the corner of your mouth. The office if filling with a haze of moody smoke. Lisa walks in. You sit her down and tell her what you have planned for her career.... THIS, IS THAT THREAD! |
Ocean_Islands | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 04:12 am     "Lisa, go back home because you have no chance of a Hollywood career." |
Cmc209 | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 04:30 am     That's funny Ocean_Islands! I laughed at that one... |
Tobor7 | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 04:50 am     Agent: "Hi." Lisa: "Hi? (big smile) Did you say HI?" Agent: "Yeah, it's what I say to everyone who walks into a room. Sit down please." Lisa: "Is my tummy showing ok? 'Cause I can go buy some new clothes..." Agent: "Forget the clothes. We can fix the tummy. I got 11 people waiting outside, so we gotta move this along." Lisa: "11 People? Do I know them?" Agent: "Not at all. Now between my fee, CBS' fee and Arnie's fee that's a lot of fees. You're going to have to work hard." Lisa: "I can make a mean Tom Collins in under 9 seconds." Agent: "I got a sitcom about a bunch of people stuck in a house trying to win a cash prize." Lisa: "Who do I play." Agent: "Lemme see... uh, you play the girl. You don't win, but you get close. It's a good spot. 8 weeks of work." Lisa: "I forgot to tell you but I got new pitchers done... wanna see them?" |
Duchess | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 05:45 am     LMAO Tobor, I almost choked on my orange wedge reading your post! |
Ericka1012 | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 06:01 am     Tobor, You strike again...you make me laugh so hard when I read some of the stuff you put on this board...hehehe |
Gidget | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 06:07 am     I was actually thinking the other day, we have all made fun of her tiny voice but she might be able to parlay that into some voice over work or cartoons. That is if there IS any of that work left. Most of it is being snatched up by greedy stars and has beens. |
Twiggyish | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 06:26 am     I think product endorsements and commercials might help. She could also take acting lessons. |
Mrdisguise | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 07:34 am     "That is if there IS any of that work left. Most of it is being snatched up by greedy stars and has beens." I am disappointed that you wrote this. I bet the producer approaches the stars to use their voices in animated films. A distinctive and recognizable voice can improve an animated film. Sharon Stone, Woody Allen, Jennifer Lopez, Sylvester Stallone were great in the animated movie- ANTZ. Their voices made the movie more interesting. The voices in A BUG'S LIFE were bland and less distinct- the movie was kind of boring. Michael J Fox is the perfect voice for Stuart Little. The British actress who did Jane's voice in Tarzan did an awesome job. Toy Story were big hits partly because of Tom Hanks and Tim Allen's voice acting. |
Jdel2002 | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 07:38 am     Mr. Perhaps YOU are one of these mysterious talents. My advice to Lisa, bless her heart, would be to call 1-800-GETALIFE. Bartending seems to suit her well. And I actually do like her. |
Catfat | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 11:34 am     I think Lisa would be a great runway model. A tall, leggy woman like her could prance down the runway with the best of them. Or maybe do fashion magazine ads, such as Vogue or Bazaar.(sp) I think she could achieve that haughty, arrogant look easily. Seriously, I think she is wasted tending bar. |
Cmc209 | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 11:40 am     @Jdel2002 - hmm.... 1-800-GETALIFE is busy right now... I wonder how many people are dialing that number from the BBFC. Personally I could see Lisa doing some kind of a commercial - I thought someone in the house said a hair commercial would fit her. Could you see Lisa in one of those "You've got the urge" shampoo commericals. Men dancing around her and Lisa yelling - Yes, Yes.. as they wash her hair. |
Csnog | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 11:46 am     The farmers of America could use her in their corn on the cob commercial. |
Crazydog | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 11:47 am     Lisa would be great as a model. I could also definitely see her doing a shampoo ad. But I really think she should just take her $500,000, marry Eric, buy a house and raise a nice family. She doesn't seem to be the type of person who is trying to become famous. I miss the good old days of reality TV when people were just people. The opportunistic types like Silas Gaither and Blake Mycoskie really turn me off. |
Ericzj | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 11:47 am     Playboy, Penthouse, Hustler...or maybe not. What about Webcam Pay-Per-View (she has experience!)? |
Betty | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 11:53 am     No, she'd have to lose about 50 lbs to do runway modeling. |
Zoomerkitty | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 11:53 am     Or how about a commercial for medication for an <>: "Do you suffer from the paid and embarrassment of ... "Spider Bites"? Then use new Sore-B-Gone. It cures what ails ya! 007 |
Jagger | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 11:56 am     Lisa's agent Lisa, there is a new popular reality show coming up, it's been on several times already and you would get a chance to get even with one of your co-bb'rs. Lisa sure Mr Agent, what's it called Agent It's called Celebrity Boxing, they are looking for a few has beens to knock the cr*p out of each other and I thought this would be the perfect time for you to get back at Chiera for stabbing you in the back. Lisa Bring it on, just bring it on, let me at her ( sorry that line should be restricted to Danni's use only) |
Gidget | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 12:02 pm     Mrdisguise- I beg to differ. Back in the day there were a number of actors who worked strictly in voice. It was a talent in itself, not unlike character acting. Today a good deal of the voice work goes to name performers. They don't need a few days work. But they take it. Just like many of them do commercials overseas when they wouldn't sully their reputations in advertising in the USA. If you like to hear Sharon Stone play a bug, well have at it. Kind of makes me wonder if the work could stand on it's own without the celebrity voices? Just like BB it is all about the money. |
Luvhubby | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 12:05 pm     Agent: Sears wants you to do a dryer commercial with Excitment. You say "HI" pull the lint trap out and show no lint on it. You look down and pull lint from your navel. Lisa: So when does the excitment come in? Agent: O, I think it will come right at the end. |
Eden | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 12:17 pm     What Ocean said. Hollywood is populated with "Lisas". Nothing extraordinary about her. I haven't noticed that being on BB is any kind of great springboard to anything other than a Warhol quarter hour. |
Katlady53 | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 12:19 pm     I can see Lisa doing a little guest shot on SNL in a spoof on reality t.v., can't you? |
Richardfan | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 12:30 pm     1) Singer for "Lisa Lisa and the Cult of Roddy Jam" 2) Harlequin Romance pamphlet writer 3) Spokesperson for the US Navel Academy 4) Starts a drug magazine "Just Say 'Hi' Times" Gosh, these are just not funny... |
Alexis_42 | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 05:11 pm     It could be worse... he/she could be Tonya's or Chiara's agent - LOL |
Oregonfire | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 05:19 pm     I think she could do shampoo commercials, print or tv. Don't they have models for specific things--like hand models and the like? Her hair is truly gorgeous. Other than that, I'd like her to work behind the scenes. Maybe cinematography? I know she likes photography, so maybe a good field for her. I personally don't think Lisa is terribly charismatic, so can't really see her acting other than "Beach Bunny Number Three" type stuff. |
