This is nuts.  Someone my parents knew 50 years ago when they lived in Colombia just sent them this. From Bucaramanga's "Vanguardia Liberal."

At this point in the panel, someone interrupted me, yelling, "WE LOVE YOU, PINHEAD!"

MY CHARACTER'S FACE ON A FAN'S LEG:  CHECK!

These are a few of my favorite things...
No, actually, this is my favorite: Red Carpet at PaleyFest.

The audio was weird on stage so I didn't catch it (just as well, or I might have passed out), but here Ryan Murphy pays me THE HIGHEST COMPLIMENT: "We wanted someone who could go from 'Play with meee' to 'The hypotenuse of the square root...' easily."
(He's talking about me!!!)

Last year for St. Patty's Day, I celebrated in my own little drama-geek way:  I went to the theatre and saw Samuel Beckett's "Waiting for Godot" (starring James Cromwell). Little did I know I'd be telling him off on television just 6 months later...

I dreamt of this as a girl!

Great fun being on the AHS panel at PaleyFest '13!

For my friends (and father) who were too scared to watch, don't have cable, and/or whose dog ate their iTunes/Amazon/Netflix:  My "people" requested I compile a "Pepper reel," so now you can watch the highlights in just 2 minutes!: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zlu2u1np9d4

Tonight!  6pm Pacific/9pm Eastern, I'll be on the Fantasy Sideline Show on ESPN 1090 AM.  Listen in:  http://tobtr.com/s/4397481

My girl, Cara blogged about me too:

My buddy, Tenere blogged about me...  May be of interest to fellow Wildcats and/or actors not getting cast!

Somewhere in Sâo Paulo, a new Pepper was born!

Guess who's been invited to be on a panel with Ryan Murphy, Jessica Lange, Lily Rabe, Evan Peters, Brad Falchuk, Dante DiLoreto, and Tim Minear on closing night of PaleyFest?!?!

Check me out in last week's "Hollywood Reporter!"

Coming soon to a Horror Convention near you!

IT'S WEDNESDAY!  

Won't you watch AHS?  

It makes Pepper sooo happy!

Headed to my first celebrity "gifting."  Excited!

Having trouble tracking down pics from the 

Golden Globes FOX party last night... 

But THIS was my dress:

  

http://nataliafednerdesign.com/Gallery/Pages/fashion_design.html

Fun in the FOX party photo booth with 

AHS production supervisor, James Williams!

This is what Jane Lynch looked like tonight 

when she learned I play "Pepper."

Had a blast last night recording "The Fort" podcast.  

Episode details forthcoming!

Just got recognized naked at the gym.  Time to lob off the hair nob and work off that Pepper-pooch!

Very excited for the AHS wrap party tonight.  Then Sunday... Golden Globes!

Just booked my first "personal appearance" gig.

My duties:  sit pretty and sign autographs.

SHOCK STOCK, Ontario, Canada-- here I come!

I swear I'll stop-- something tells me George Clooney isn't blogging about this on his website-- though I only relatively recently quit cleaning the bathroom for free classes at my yoga studio.  So I'm gonna enjoy this:

I might be officially famous...
Someone just tweeted me a picture of her vagina.
Isn't that the touchstone?  Anonymous genitalia?

Look what the Three Kings brought me!

Well, that confirms it:  Kids, stay in school!  Finally used all that Portuguese I took in a Brazilian interview:  http://mundoahs.com/2013/01/entrevista-de-naomi-pepper-exclusiva.html 

6 months ago, this would have sent me into the ethers.  

It's still pretty freakin' cool.
