Q How did you get to be apart
of Lady Gaga’s “G.U.Y” music
video?
A One of the producers asked me to
audition. Out of all they’re choices Gaga
picked me.
Q What was going through
your head when you were contacted?
A At first i was asked to audition and I
didnt want to take the time off work, but
then I was told it was for Gaga and jumped
right on the band wagon.
Q What is like being on set
and off set with Lady Gaga?
A Shes amazing. Down to earth, gen-
uine. She doesnt treat you like you are a
nobody. She shared a couple conversations
with me about Michael. Shes just one of
those people you meet thats like a friend
youve known for years who will take you
out and buy you a beer.
Q Some people were a little
confused about your scene
along with the other characters. Can you clear that up or
give us some insight about it?
A She brings jesus, ghandi, John lennon
and Michael jackson back to life and takes
theyre blood to clone the perfect man. Im
guessing john lennon didnt make the cut
cos they had to get approval to use him
and it didnt work out. The producers had
to go through the jackson estate to get
approval for me so I guess that makes me
Jackson approved haha.
Q Seeing the complete proj-
ect, what are your thoughts?
A I freekin love it! The video is amazing.
All the detail spent on it and high quality
set design. Its just an amazing video. The
message she gives is so strong.
