As we previously mentioned in BLWE, we’re inviting AE readers to share a bit more about themselves with the rest of us via our new “AfterEllen.com Reader of the Week” spot on the blog.
This time, our Reader of the Week is a woman with eclectic tastes.
Reader of the Week:
natasha, from Los Angeles, California.
1.) What video is currently embedded on your profile and why?
The PETA commercial that NBC banned from Superbowl sunday, and if you
haven’t watched it, you should. Who knew pumpkins and asparagus
could be oh so sexy?
2.) When and where have you met a celebrity, or which celebrity would you most like to meet?
I saw, not really “met,” Angelina Jolie in Montreal when she was filming a movie. Taking Lives, I think it was. No idea, never saw the movie.
However, a celebrity I would most like to meet? I’m gonna have to go with Sheetal Sheth (The World Unseen, I Can’t Think Straight) just so I could go skydiving with her or something. She seems like she’d totally be into that. And I have a thing for Indian and Middle Eastern women… you know, considering that they are absolutely GORGEOUS.
3) What lesbian/bi pop culture character are you most like, and why?
Hiro Nakamura (Heroes)! Oh, wait. That’s not a lesbian pop culture icon is it? I think I’d fit that one well. I guess I’ll be him for Halloween or something. Yata!
Anyway, I think I’m going to have to go with (The L Word’s) Alice-pre-wannabe television host days. She’s quirky, outspoken, charming, intelligent, and hilarious- yeah, I could totally be all those things. Ha ha.
4.) What cd is in heavy rotation for you right now?
I think I’ve lived off of just Emiliana Torrini, Lykke Li, Radiohead and The Kills for the last two months. I swear, I can sing that s*** in my sleep now, I’ve probably listened to them so much. I suppose I should mix it up a little bit, but The Kills are probably the sexiest band ever that you might get ear orgasms watching them do a live set. And Radiohead is just a given that will ALWAYS be in heavy rotation for me.
5) If we hacked into your DVR, what would we find?
I’ll tell you the embarrassing one first: Platinum Weddings. Yes, I’m not sure why, but I absolutely love weddings, and just planning any sort of event in general, but there’s something about weddings.
Otherwise, the rest of that is filled up with The Office (because I’m secretly in love with Jim and really, who isn’t?), Lost (because Juliet’s boobs practically have a halo around them in that show), Everyday Italian (because everything Giada De Laurentiis makes, I want to put in my mouth), and Iron Chef America (but only Masaharu Morimoto and Cat Cora episodes because who honestly cares about Chef Bobby Flay? Ha ha.)
Thanks for sharing, natasha!
