My first, real “weekend” since March... Stole away to Palm Springs to celebrate my friend, Michael Ameel’s birthday. 🥳 #Netflix suggested we watch 1BR_Film, and lemme tell you, watching THEM watch it was almost as entertaining as the movie itself! 🤣😱 It started unassumingly with them just reclining on the couch... Soon they were standing a foot from the screen, screaming!!! Mission accomplished, Team #1BR!

 

I lost a friend this week. #RIP @pnoeric. The 🌎 is a less hilarious, fun place. 2020 is the absolute bratwurst.

 

I CANNOT BELIEVE that itty bitty movie I “special guest starred in,” is now #1 on Netflix in the U.S!!! 🤯 Just a week ago, we were strategizing our podcasts, and 1BR_Film’s producer said, “This is all about to end.” HA! This is JUST the BEGINNING, my friend!!! 🥳 Go Team #1br!!!

 

Happy (belated) National Dog Day. I was busy celebrating Women Equality Day... which REALLY shouldn’t be the same day! 🤦🏻‍♀️ Also, I’ve always been gap-toothed. Deal with it! #nationaldogday #womenequality #gaptooth #diastema #dentsdubonheur #luckyme #tbt #childhoodmemories #australianshepherd #blackandwhite

 

Listen sweeties, today at 3pm pacific, I’ll be on Listen Sweetie’s FB Live, talking 1BR_Film’s assent on Netflix (No. 1 in their “Popular” & “Suspense” lists!), among other things. 😉 Then, once the live is done, the audio will be streamed to all #podcast platforms. Thanks for listening, sweeties!

No, we’re not watching the #RNC (though we could be!). We were ACTUALLY looking for #chupacabras in #Chile! 🇨🇱 #goodtimes w/ Syfy Channel! 🙌🏼 #happybirthday, Neil Mandt! 😘

 

Spotted! First glimpse of “Janice” in 1BR_Film, who makes even gardening look sinister! 🌱 See what other mundane tasks she makes scary in #1BR, now #trending on #Netflix! What’s more, in the 🇺🇸 we’re ranked No. 4 in their Top 10 Movie List, No. 8 in their combined Movie/TV List, and the No. 2 Most Popular! (2nd only to Lucifer, who we can’t be mad at because he IS the dark lord, and therefore probably responsible for our assent to begin with!) Even better in 🇨🇦: No. 3 in their Top 10 Movie List, and No. 1 in New Movies! Not bad for the no-budget, little-movie-that-could! 🍾🥂🔥🙌🏼☠️🔪 #horrormovie #indiefilm #actorslife #netflixandchill

 

Thanks to everyone who watched 1BR_Film during its debut weekend, making it #5 on the Netflix charts! Here's a fun, follow-up podcast for you from "Sledgehammer Horror:"

More creepy pictures of me!!! Shockingly, this is NOT Rosemary’s baby. This is my mother’s only baby, aka ME! 👶🏻 So OF COURSE I grew up to do horror!! ☠️🔪 The signs were there... from my infancy! #horror #creepybaby #babypic #rosemarysbaby #asign #writingonthewall #redflag #blackeye #possessed #hailsatan

 

How I’ve 💙ed seeing fierce, formidable women forming complete sentences this week! More of that, please!! 🙏🏼 In the meantime, here is how & where & with whom I personally find my focus & strength: 🙌🏼 Stephanie Morrell

Oh, Pepper knows where the wild things are! 👕: @ronaldmcdonkey 📸: @debbiemartinez1212 #wildthings #ahs #pepper #lovemyfans #wherethewildthingsare

 

What Mercy Malick said. Basically, SAG-AFTRA is raising the requirements to qualify for health insurance at a time when there's not even acting-work to get! Amidst a pandemic no less!! 🤦🏻‍♀️

 

DO YOU FEEL THE ❤️?! 👶🏻 DOES!! @maharincess.steph surprised me with the ORIGINAL #artistproof sent to @breygent_marketing for their #ahs #tradingcards... ✍🏼 She was selected to do the #official #drawing for their #ahsasylum set (which I’ll photograph later— nothing’s happening so I gotta parse out my posts!), which she did just days after she had emergency bilateral carpal tunnel release surgery! 🤯 How talented and generous and incredible is she?! Thank 👼 she’s recovered, and her art is being enjoyed by #ahsfans everywhere! #fanart #lovemyfans #grateful #actorslife #feelthelove

 

The only thing that might make me happier, is if I actually *were* #mayarudolph right now!!! STRONG WOMEN who *actually* represent the diversity of this country for the WIN!!! 💪🏿💪🏾💪🏽💪🏼💪🏻 #photoby Genevieve Marie #museumofdreamspace #editorial #photography #bluewave #bidenharris2020

Nice try, @serien_movie_world, but I’ve been July since March. #2020challenge #pepper #ahs #ahsasylum #ahsfreakshow #ahsapocalypse #coronapocalypse

At 1pm PST/4pm EST/9pm BST, hunker down in your however many BR, and watch 1BR_Film (available on iTunes or Amazon.com) as the cast, director & producers #livetweet for the #fracturedvisionsfilmfestival! Just follow #fracvisathome on Twitter to join in the fun! #1br_film #darkskyfilms

 

Is it November yet? 🙄 #photoby Michael Lohr #makeup @miriamvukich #finishingtouches @martinatolotmoroder #isitnovemberyet #pandemiclife #waitinggame #vote #editorial #photography #normcore #attitude #tbt #actorslife

 

1BR_Film's producer, Alok Mishra told me beforehand that Alternate Ending was a Northwestern University alumni podcast... So I wore my purple, ready to rally my fellow Wildcats, and retaliate against his alma mater, University of Southern California for ruining our Rose Bowl Game '95! But then I remembered our director, David Marmor went to Harvard University, so then we were ALL schooled. Hilarity ensues! Have a listen:

#happybirthday #lucilleball! (My #halfbirthday, btw.) Among my million other, ding-a-ling, actor side-hustles, I “worked” as a Lucille Ball impersonator, storming @cubagoodingjr at the #ratrace #redcarpet & #premiereparty back in 2001. This photo appeared the next day in People. Can you tell which Lucy is me?? 😳 #tbt #actorslife #peoplemagazine #cubagoodingjr #sidehustle #ilovelucy

I know I’m beating a dead horse (or maybe it’s my own booty), but stay with me!!! Y’all know I live in a haunted condo, right? 👻 Check out the phantom-hand grabbing Pepper’s right butt-cheek!!! 👶🏻🍑 Might THAT account for the mysterious bruising on my right back-side?! 🤔 I KNOW no one here believes in ghosts... 😉🙋🏻‍♀️ (Oh, and since everyone’s asking, hit up Ronaldmcdonkey or go to www.ronaldmcdonkey.com for your own shirt! This one’s mine!) 📸: @imene.esq #ghost #phantom #haunted #evidence #proof #ibelieve

My outrageously funny fan, Ronaldmcdonkey just surprised me with this t-shirt. I 💙 it (even though the image upsets my mom because she doesn’t understand that’s not my real 🍑)! As PROOF, I’ve provided photos of my actual 🍑... which is actually EVEN MORE upsetting; because while it may not be as rotund, it is COVERED in mysterious bruises!!! 🤭🤷🏻‍♀️ Someone needs to photoshop that 💩! Or diagnose me!! 😬🙏🏼 Thank you, #ronaldmcdonkey for your hilarity and generosity, Momentum Talent Agency for your extra trouble, and imene.esq for capturing my horror-worthy 🍑! #lovemyfans

CONGRATS to my dear friend, Maria Elena Laas on her ENGAGEMENT!! 💕🥂 I feel strangely, cosmically responsible for the last one’s failure... having ripped off my bra at the rehearsal dinner just to win the limbo contest. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ (I’m VERY competitive, and those padded push-ups weren’t doing me any favors!) I PROMISE to behave better at this wedding!!! 🤪🤚🏼 #congrats #amiga #mariaelenalaas #engaged #limbo #contest #rehearsaldinner #braoff #howtowin #winning #whateverittakes #respectthehustle #yogaeverydamnday

Bless 1BR_Film for giving me a reason to shower!

I hope you like my new outfit, cuz it’s ALL I WEAR NOW!!! (With a mask, obvi.) The Young Actors' Theatre Camp in NoCal, where I volunteer every summer, has gone digital this year— which means YOU TOO can visit the camp store, get yourself a matching shortie, AND best of all, help #saveyatc!!!! Call to order: (408) 805-1579 & use the code: NAOMI. We’ll be total twinsies!! 👯‍♀️
