Just flew to Australia, and the whole world turned upside down. Very happy to hear it! #LoveWins
We interrupt my unabashed Emmy campaign coverage with the following HILARITY, brought to you by the beguiling Carrie Seim: here she spoofs "The Graduate" in her HGTV animated series, "Bad Moms in Movie History," featuring a certain familiar someone as Mrs. Robinson. WHOEVER COULD IT BE?!? http://heelsinthehills.com/2015/06/24/bad-moms-in-movie-history-the-declutterate/

Always a blast guesting at Sonoma's Young Actors' Theatre Camp!

I get by with a little help from my friends, like Harrison Reiner, who just posted this:
"To my friends in the Television Academy who are eligible to vote for best supporting actress awards: My beloved and ridiculously gifted friend Naomi Grossman, one of the true good guys in Hollywood, has been submitted for consideration for a best supporting actress award in the movie or limited series category for her bravura performance on season 4 of American Horror Story: Freak Show, and don’t take my word for it, The Wall Street Journal and Perez Hilton and others have pointed out the brilliance of the performance. I have mentored numbers of you, I’ve read scripts for you, I’ve advised you, I’ve tried to be there for you in every way that I know how, in every way I’ve been able, and I rarely ask for anything from you . I am now asking you for something that’s not for me, it’s for Naomi Grossman, an actress who gave, I believe, one of the most heart-rending performances in television in recent history. For me, Naomi gave one of the most tear-jerking, devastating performances on television—ever—in episode 10 of Season 4 of American Horror Story, playing “Pepper,” an orphaned young woman, rendered by society as a freak, who is adopted by the owner of a freak show, played by Jessica Lange. When the freak show reaches the end of its life, its creator, the Jessica Lange character, places Pepper in an adoptive home, a home in which she will never receive the love she felt from Jessica Lange’s character, who’s moving on to pursue her ambitions in Hollywood. Pepper is scared of the future. The home she’s been placed in is not only cold, she probably knows in her heart there is danger, she will be abused and she will be trapped. Pepper’s heart is torn from her when Jessica Lange, the only mother figure she’s known, leaves her off at her new, dreary, bleak, adoptive home. Upon Jessica Lange’s departure, Naomi, as Pepper, becomes emotionally undone. The moment is some of the most riveting, hearbreaking television you will ever see. If you haven’t seen episode 10 of season 4, I will buy it for you, send it to you, do what I ever have to do, let me know. We all have our household name favorites, I am asking you to help this underdog, brilliant actress who reached NUMBER ONE ON IMDB.COM at the time of her performance, by voting for her, by nominating someone who’s performance should not be overlooked. Many times merit alone doesn’t garner the recognition an emerging actress deserves, so please help me to help Naomi and nominate her for Best Supporting Actress in a Limited Series. If I have to wash your car for you, I’ll do it. Let’s help one of the good guys get the recognition she not only deserves but has earned in spades. I thank you very much. Vote for Naomi."

Met this super-fly fashionista at a horror con... I liked her style, so I sent her home with an oversized men's t-shirt another fan had gifted me to see what she could do. Here it is! The lace detail, the uneven hem, the sexy slits down the side-- so creative and funky and fun! Get your own-- though it won't look like mine! 100% original, by Morbid Delusion Designs! http://morbiddelusionfx.wix.com/morbiddelusion

Yesterday I beat a red-light ticket, rocked a red-carpet event, and hopped a red-eye flight, Only to rendezvous with my red-hot, childhood friend, Andrea Davis today in Nebraska!
May 27, 2015
Yesterday was the kind of day I dreamt of as a girl: 2 auditions, some on-camera press for Moviepilot, a Reddit AMA, and a long-ass red carpet (followed by the 50th anniversary screening of "The Sound of Music," WITH Julie Andrews & Christopher Plummer in attendance). THESE are a few of my favorite things!

Just did the most difficult thing I'll do today:

This lovely family was waiting for me at LAX last night with their Pepper action figures poised & ready to be signed. (How did they know my flight??) Setting the creep-factor aside, and concentrating on how cute they are/sweet it all is!

Do you guys watch "Gotham?" Turns out it's star, Robin Lord Taylor and I went to school together, at the exact same time, and consequently have a million mutual friends (and acting teacher)! Spent the night reminiscing old times we didn't know we shared!

Today I met one of my biggest fans... He runs the @NaomiPepperFan site/twitter (note the t-shirt). I don't know who was more excited to meet who!!! -At Wizard World St. Louis
Big ups to Beth Konrad Brown & Point Society, as well as Petey Mongelli, James Mullen & the freaks/fans at Spooky Empire. 'Twas a freaky-deaky weekend, made only more wild by a visit with my middle school crush, Blue Man-extraordinaire, Wesley Day!

Friday night I was doing the worm on a dance floor all alone somewhere in New England... Saturday morning I was in Florida with a 2 ft tall woman and an 8 ft tall woman, being showered by original art. Today I'm coming home to Cali WITH STORIES!

So, I just flew to New Hampshire to attend this "Point Society" gala... This is their mission statement. For the life of me, I still don't know what they do, nor what I'm doing here. But it is FABULOUS!
