Triple Audishle!

Today I had a triple audish and read for three spots! Here are the highlights:

"Not too big. Or too small."
"It doesn't taste interesting."
"So not only did I get something new and interesting, I still made it to my appointment."

These individuals will play Royal Comics on the ship and also perform in their production of Hairspray.

Glamourous Audish

Today I had an audish and it turned out to be in the category of 'feminine products.'

These testimonials sound like women telling their friends, acquaintances, & co-workers what they love about pads.

I knew I could nail this because I'm always telling my acquaintances how much I love maxi pads..... NOT! Who does that? Now for the unbelievable lines:

I didn't feel like I was wearing a pad
Super absorbent
The super hero of pads

I guess if I went around chatting up people about my pads, then maybe these are things I would say.

What would you do....

My most recent VO audish was for a cross promo between the McGolden Arches and a baseball team- buy a value meal, get a cute discount on tickets.

The copy was a fun list of things you would do for tickets.... or you could just go to McGolden Arches!

This was a fun audish, but it was also another Crazy Cabbie day.

When my cab driver dropped me off, he said, "What is in these two buildings? I come here many times dropping off pretty ladies."

"Well, that door is a hair salon according to the sign. And this door is for a talent agency and a modeling agency, so you are probably seeing models."

"Oh that must be it."

"Yea, I actually have a voice over audition, so..." I said as I waited for my change, trying to imply that I needed to leave and that I was also a pretty and talented lady.

"I mean, I get some pretty ladies in my cab but some of these women I am just like, oh my God, they are so gorgeous I have never see such beautiful women." He was not interested in my voiceover career.

"Yea, that's because they are models. Could I get a receipt?"

We repeated this same exchange a few times before he gave me my change and the receipt.

I am definitely going to deduct this cab ride as a business expense on my taxes.
