It was getting later in the afternoon and we had to go back on to the set and begin the second half of filming. ”

“I just went over the final version with my manager and need some thoughts on it, what kind of music do you listen to?”

“Are you kidding, I am like the girl who cannot live without music, it doesn’t matter what kind, well I guess except for hard core rap. David was the most fun person to work with because he has a wonderful sense of humor. I played the role of his friend but had no speaking part. ” “I never knew that you could sing Jeremy. ”

“Glad to hear it, you take care sweetheart. Filet Mignon, Chicken Parmigan, Garlic Mashed Potatoes, and Rice Pilaf were just a few of the main dishes served to us. ”

Hearing Jeremy’s song, I experienced déjà vu. ” Perhaps I was meant to be the first person to hear his song.
