Cameron Crowe was an asshole for rehearsing

My process is just speaking the lines and hoping something good comes of it. I'm not a big believer in method acting, just being as real as possible.

[jerpiven]

I say the words, I pretty much stick to the page (unless I get a really good idea), and at least once per scene, if I can, I shake it up and do the opposite of what the director asked me to do, just to keep everyone guessing. That's about it.

But, you know, ever since James Lipton, everyone has to talk about their PROCESS...

[zosaldana]

Me too. I can't really even shake it up. I guess I'm not a bad actress, I'm just unoriginal. I take what I'm given and do what I can with it.

Maybe I should talk about my favorite swear word next.

[jerpiven]

If you say it's motherfucker, I'm gonna say you're boring...

i am all about flying by the seat of my pants in any situation.

hi, piv!

[jerpiven]

First you have to be wearing pants, model girl. Do you ever do that?

Hi, Iz.

[izabel_goulart]

okay... flying by the seat of my thong?? haha.

miss you. seriously i don't catch you online nearly enough.

[jerpiven]

Better. Although that sounds a little painful.

I miss you too, Iz. I'll try and be around a little more, just for you, mmkay?

Part of the reason I've enjoyed working on TV these last few years has been the pacing, the controlled chaos and new stories every week aspect. Getting a chance to know the people I work with.

And since I've been laughing at everything relating to the number 22 for the last three days, I'm adding you.

[jerpiven]

You're added, mostly because you're fucking brilliant, and I like brilliant people around me.

[kurkova_k]

why have i never had a conversation with you before? this really makes me sad

[jerpiven]

It makes me sad too, because I really have so much to say.

Actually, that's a little white lie. I think a conversation between us would involve me doing a lot of staring at you while you talked. Or while you didn't.

[kurkova_k]

well thats unfortunate because we really wouldn't talk much at all then, because i tend to do the same thing

[jerpiven]

I don't mind silence, as long as it's a comfortable silence.

[b_lucas]

You say that, I say I haven't slept because I've spent the entire night previous memorizing every single fucking thing I have to do and the only thing keeping me awake is that can of Mountain Dew clenched in my left hand.

[jerpiven]

Don't chase the memories, they'll come on their own. You either know the stuff, or you don't flat-out.

Now, the caffiene, that's the stuff, right there. Mountain Dew's the kiddie ride, though. It's bumpercars, it's not the roller coaster.

[b_lucas]

That's the joys of an eidetic memory.

You should see me on my third. It makes up for the, you know, four hours of sleep and the fear that I'm going to make a total ass of myself.
