Inside the Actor's Studio

Last night I was watching the finals of America’s Got Talent.  One of the segments included a man by the name of James Lipton.  James Lipton is the host of a show called Inside the Actor’s Studio.  It has been airing on Bravo since 1994.


The show is an interview between Mr. Lipton and celebrities ranging from Paul Newman to the Cast of Glee.  He ends each show with a series of questions which provide the audience insight into the personality of the celebrity.  This week you are going to answer these questions. 

For your comment please respond to the following:

1. What is your favorite word?
2. What is your least favorite word?
3. What inspires creatively, spiritually or emotionally?
4. What turns you off creatively, spiritually or emotionally?
5. What sound or noise do you love?
6. What sound or noise do you hate?
7. What is your favorite curse word? ***KEEP IT CLEAN
8. What profession would you like to attempt?
9. What profession would you not like to do?
10. When you get to Heaven, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?

  1. My favorite word is extravagant, I guess. I don't really have a favorite word. My least favorite word is got. Nature and traveling inspires me. Anything broken, like shattered glass, turns off my creativity. I love the sound of birds tweeting on Sunday mornings after sleeping in late. I hate the sound of ocean waves that comes from Mrs. Governale's sound machine. My favorite curse word is sh**. I want to become an author but not full-time. I'll have a real job too. I'm not sure what it will be yet, but I know for sure I never want to have to work in a grey cubicle or a bland office. I want God to say to me, "You made a positive change in the world. Well done, Grace."
