I Always Knew I'd Be On CNN Someday...

CNN in My Living Room

I'm not accustomed to being on the other side of the interview. Save for job interviews where I am apparently, a "force of nature" (keke I will never let that go, I am so flattered!), I'm usually the one that asks the questions. I'm the one holding the mic. My thoughts? My opinions? I save them for this blog, not for the article or the story.

But I did sit in the hot seat one afternoon a few weeks ago. (And oh man, was it HOOOOT. Those camera lights burn!) And it was...not bad.

A couple of producers at CNN Entertainment have been working on a story featuring the one and only Wong Fu Productions and their influence on Asian youths and for some reason, I was contacted to set up some interviews with Wong Fu fans.

I got ahold of some of the best and brightest Wong Fu admirers (thanks Phil!) and this little shindig took place in my humble abode.

Because of my dashing personality (I'm sure), I was also asked to hold a cute teddy bear and a couple of questions on camera.
Here's me trying to be eloquent. Or maybe they were just all interested in my homemade chalkboard...?
Here are some Wong Fu fans who really know what they were talking about! And look at their cute shirts!
Though I still feel more comfortable carrying the badge and firing off the questions, I must say, it was pretty frickin' cool to speak for a story for CNN!

P.S. Not advertising but the teddy bear, hat and Wong Fu shirts can all be purchased at their site. Let's support some independent film-makers!
