Have you had any surprising moments with the
celebrities you have met? Has anyone turned out
to be different from the way you expected?
When Russell Brand threw me in his arms, grabbed
me into his chest and then kissed me. This was a
surprising but amazing feeling. He was virtually 15
minutes late on stage, as he was too busy backstage
smooching me up.
Who was the person you were most awestruck to
meet?
Meeting Angelina Jolie’s father Jon Voight was an
awestruck moment, backstage at the HBO party in
LA. Nobody gives up their Golden Globe on Globe
night, as the golden statue is the entry into every
party. Except for Voight – he certainly gave it up for
me, as I passed him my microphone, with him turning
the tables by interviewing me on stage.
Who is the celebrity you would most like to
interview if you could, and why?
I would have to say Mark Wahlberg, but this will
come true when I interview him next week on the red
carpet.
What are the qualities you need to be a good
entertainment reporter?
Research is the key to being a great entertainment
reporter. Before I set foot on any red carpet around
the world, I have done weeks of research growing my
knowledge of my target. Let the hunger games begin.
