Have you ever thought about who would play you if there was ever a movie about your life? It's funny how often this issue has come up in the last few weeks. So, I decided a blog in it was probably necessary.
Casting is important, you know. Think about it....let's take Julia Roberts for example. She was born to play Vivian in Pretty Woman. No one else could have played that role.
Some people have it easy.
Keira Knightley is perfect for College Roomie.
SoulMateFriend would be played by Courtney Cox because there are things that my friend says and mannerisms that she has that are exactly like Monica from Friends!
I, on the other hand, have never been able to figure out who should play me. Well last week, I was watching this new show on NBC called Parenthood. (I love the show by the way....the dad is Craig T. Nelson--aka Hayden Fox from Coach!) Anyway, I really like one of the sisters on the show and was thinking, hmmm, maybe she could play me. Then, as the week went on, without me bringing it up, two more people commented on who they thought would play me in a movie.
Anyhow...from this, we have three suggestions.
Drew Barrymore (This suggestion was made while watching her in Charlie's Angels)
Renee Zellweger (This is actually my least favorite. I don't like her because she was mean to Kenny Chesney and her face seems all scrunchy.)
Erika Christensen (This is the girl from Parenthood. She was also the crazy chick in Swim Fan, but I'm trying to pretend that isn't why she could play me.)
So....two questions for the blog readers.
1. Who would play you?
2. Which one of these (or do you have any other suggestions of actresses) should play me?

So, I love this blog it is my top 5! Okay so I'm obsessed with Parenthood as well, and my vote is totally for the lawyer girl off of that show. I actually have thought that you and her are very similar! As far as who would play me I have no clue! That is a hard one to figure out, I'm kind of out there.

I'll have to watch that show to get more perspective on the Erika girl. Regardless, you're definitely the leading lady in your own life (great quote!), as it should be.
I'm flattered on your pick of Kiera Knightley for me. :)

Thanks, girls!
Sara--we do need to find someone to play you. Drew Barrymore might work actually, if she was being really loud. :) Other ideas!?!?
Amy--you should check out that show. The girl is probably not animated enough to be me all the way, but she's good in the show.
I love parenthood...and she would play you very well. Kiera Knightly is right on for Amy...if she did action movies, Amy could be her stunt double, thats how much they look alike.
I have no clue who would play me in a movie...I have to think about this
Lyndse
Okay, Amy and I were talking tonight.....and we made some decisions. :) In the movie, Lyndse should be played either by Katherine Heigel (Amy's suggestion) or Cameron Diaz (my idea). Sara will be played by that girl KaDee something or another who is on Private Practice--southern accent and kinda mean. She's in the Rascall Flatts video for that one sad song. Those are my thoughts! :)
Now that we've all been cast, I think we should start researching directors and funding for the movie.... :)
-Amy
Really??? I think I had some ideas too???
-Shane
Easy there, killer! This was posted a week ago....there is going to be an update next week that will include some of your suggestions!
Oh I missed this blog entry!! I like Drew Barrymore. However, Reba really sticks out in my mind. I realize the hair color isn't right - however her personality reminds me of you Tiffany!
Thanks, Robyn! Apparently my former judging teammates think I should be a red-head...Shane suggested Kate Walsh!
