Bet you didn’t know that about me, did you?

Well, that’s because I’m not all snooty about it.

And, there were six other stars in the movie, all with equal billing.

And it’s a Canadian movie.

A documentary.

Oh snap. I know. Try to contain yourselves.

Truth is, over 200 psychics from my area were interviewed for this film. And only 7 were selected. So I felt speshul. Don’t spoil it for me.

Okay, I’m over it now.

I was really surprised that the film crew were so nice. And helpful. We had a potluck as part of the filming, because I held meditation groups at my house, and they wanted to get them some of that riveting footage. Who knows what could happen? Anyway, the crew stuck around afterwards to help clean up.

The director even hired me to teach an energy raising class in a fun way for her daughter’s birthday party. It was great fun for them and me too.

You weren’t likely to see it in your local theatres, unless it was during a film festival. There was one screening locally, and I was gobsmacked to later meet another person who had actually seen it.

It was a well done film, as are documentaries from the National Film Board of Canada. And no, I’m not linking it. Go find it yourself. Hah! It’s called “The Kitchen Goddess”.

I took Ass Burger Boy and Skinny Bitch with me to the screening. We had so much fun at the catered, celebrity-filled (real celebrities!) pre-party that we arrived late for the actual screening.

We had to sit in the front row, as those were the only seats left.

It didn’t bother me a bit to have a camera the size of my living room ten inches from my face during the filming.

Note: It is painful to see a closeup of your face on the big screen when you are in the front row. And for Skinny Bitch, it was doubly painful, because she had just gotten out of her halo, a device that is used to immobilize the head of patients with neck and head injuries.

But that’s a story for another day. I do love me some Skinny Bitch.

Shameless self-promotion: Show me some freaking love. Go on, vote. You know you wanna. You have to register first, but you will make me very happy. Check your junk mail folder for the registration confirmation. Oh, and if it says voting is closed? It is for 2007, but this award is for 2008. Click the button to vote for me. If you’ve already voted, thank you. Now Stumble me. I’m bossy that way.

My site was nominated for Freakiest Blogger!

A real life movie star among us! I may swoon!

So can you hook me up with George Clooney?

teeni Says:

Wow – that is cool. I never knew you were a movie star and yet you are so modest and we never read about you in Star magazine for drinking and driving or partying all night long with Paris Hilton. You are a very rare class act. LOL. I wonder if I can get a copy of your movie through NetFlix? I’d love to see it.

RaeJane Says:

That is awesome!
I’m going to go look for that now!

Also, I watched on A&E a documentary of sorts on psychic children. It was very interesting.

Maybe Canada will have the Canadian Psychic Challenge like they did here in America.
It was on Lifetime… good stuff.

Get outta my head!!! Did your freaky little live tracker tell you that I spent an hour online last night looking up “the Kitchen Goddess”????? Or maybe it’s just an example of collective conscious at work. Either way…. I’d love to know where to get a sneak peak.

Woo Hoo! Can I have your autograph? Don’t forget us little people when you get your star on Hollywood Blvd!

witchypoo Says:

teeni: I drink alone. At home. And I need to get more curtains to keep those pesky paparazzi away. And to get the movie, it would most likely only be available in VHS. The movie was shot almost 10 years ago.
RaeJane: I never heard of it. We get Slice, which used to be the Life channel, it’s all Canuck-isized.
Ree: I actually went to the site, downloaded real player to see a short excerpt (It wasn’t my segment) and had to download the excerpt to play it. Sheesh. And I checked. It’s only available in VHS.
Jenny: It should be the first hit you get when you Google The Kitchen Goddess (takes you to it on the NFB site) I didn’t mean to be in your head, I was just thinking of a quick post I could do. Honest. I’ll be good now.
Kailani: Us Canadian documentary stars breathe pretty rarified air. Have your people call my people, okay?

American Psychic Challenge –
http://www.mylifetime.com/on-tv/shows/americas-psychic-challenge

I know that they said that the 2nd place winner came from a ‘dark place’ but I kind of liked her quirkiness..which probably says more about me than I care to admitt.. heh

It was a very interesting show.
They totally should do it in Canada!

Damn … and here I was getting all uppity for being a radio star. YOU GO GIRL. Maybe your people can talk to my people, and we can do lunch? :)

witchypoo Says:

Cookie: Your radio interview is just the beginning. I wouldn’t mind enough interest in my blog to warrant that kind of attention. It just happens that the media loves a psychic. Dunno why.
Veronica: I was much cuter ten years ago.

old Knudsen Says:

Real celebrities! like real Canadian celebrities? I thought they had all defected to the states. Was les Strouds the survivorman there? He annoys me. I’ve been in several movies myself as you probably know from the adult section of the video store.

I used to have a mate who made me go to the cinema even though I was on nightshifts the night before, due to his bad eyesight and vanity about wearing glasses he would sit in the front row. I feel asleep during ‘The Bodyguard’ and woke to a giant picture of Kevin Costner looking right at me, was I snoring?

I am now afraid of Kevin Costner movies and Waterworld didn’t help.

Lis Says:

Cool! Our international film fest is in April or thereabouts. I wonder if they’ll bring this documentary in.

witchypoo Says:

Knudsey: I feel your scorn for Canadian celebrities, but we love the ones that stay! I don’t watch survivorman myself, but if Stroud is Canadian, I bet he is shown here. I have the attention span of a bird, and seldom watch movies unless they are very compelling. Sorry, adult vids don’t qualify. You have to remember that ABB talks non-stop during movies, and it makes my head hurt.
Zoe: Everyone loves a mystery! What you would see is what we looked like ten years ago.
Lys: Although this film made the international festivals, it was ten years ago. The festivals are about the new releases.

Boneblower Says:

Cool – can I have your autograph :) I love movie stars, especially when they have a great sense of humour!!
