Look Ma, I'm on TV!

Day... Whatever.

Okay, so I know I said I'd slowly wean you guys off the Lawrence/Julie & Julia Project by spending the next few days updating you all of my illicit activities in Denver... but then... I had other stuff to do. Or something... you know... final exams to study for... a Bon Iver show to see... a lot of masturbating to catch up on... you know what? I don't have to explain myself to you.

I watched Julie & Julia 365 every day for a year and blogged about it. I've earned this blogging vacation. But now that I'm on winter break, I figure now's as good a time as any to tell you about the time I was on TV for watching movies.

Doomed to be forever known as "Lawrence Dai, Julie & Julia Blogger"

So as many of you know, I was flown out to Denver for the final viewing party. And as a part of that press junket, (I know! A press junket! What? I still don't know what a "junket" is!) I was briefly interviewed on FOX Denver's morning show Everyday! (an oddly fitting name for a show, given my... accomplishment)


My part starts about 5:15 into this video. It was pretty fucking surreal being interviewed on live television. I won't lie--I was pretty worried that they were gonna ask me about Amy Adams and I'd just start swearing prolifically. But I think I ended up doing okay... see for yourself.


Also, here's the cooking segment they did after my interview. Chris Parente, the host, borrowed my Juila Child wig and pearls and did his own little JC impression, but I think I could give him a run for his money.

Anyway, that's all for now--I also appeared on a Denver CBS affiliate and a PBS entertainment show, but those aren't on the internet yet--watch them if you want, but I won't be offended if you've got better things to do. Just thought it'd be cool to share WHAT YOU CAN ACCOMPLISH BY WATCHING THE SAME MOVIE EVERY DAY. Check back tomorrow for:
  • The opening trailer to my party!
  • Highlights of the party itself!
  • An exclusive interview with AMY ADAMS' MOM!!!
  • A response from the REAL Julie Powell!!
  • Other things!

And... by the end of the week, I plan on announcing my FOLLOW-UP BLOGGING PROJECT to the world. L/J&J was just a warm-up for this shit, people. So stick around.

    French chef making YOU coq au vin on TV and you say, "It's pretty good"???

    Your interview: It's pretty good.
