Tryout nothing to cheer about: Local mother questions tryout process
April 14, 2015
AGE: 23. I’m kidding. I mean 33..
TOWN: Larose.
FAMILY: Tons of ’em. I’m married to Gary Billiot and have two beautiful daughters.
HOBBIES: Reading, cooking, photography, dancing, watching football (Who Dat!) watching movies and singing.
WHAT IS A TALENT YOU HAVE FEW PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT: I’m a really good cook and I’m pretty good at imitating different accents and manipulating my voice.
IF YOU HAD TO SPEND A YEAR ON A DESERTED ISLAND, WHAT ONE THING WOULD YOU TAKE ALONG: That’s hard! I would have to say a blow torch with an endless supply of gas. That’s for killing spiders and other necessities, of course.
YOU’RE A MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR LOTTERY WINNER. WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO: Pay my tithes, pay off my debt, build a house, set up a trust fund for my kids, take care of my immediate family, travel, and build a Wendy’s down the bayou.
WHO IS YOUR ROLE MODEL: My mom, Jane. Why? She loved everyone, was full of life, and never let anything or anyone deter her from her path. She died when I was young but managed to teach me some of life’s most important lessons before leaving her Earthly body.
IF YOU WERE A SUPERHERO, WHO WOULD YOU BE AND WHAT WOULD YOUR SUPER POWER BE: Oh gosh! Umm… Like a cross between She-Ra and (Halle Berry’s version of) Catwoman. I would have the super power to heal the sick, but not forgetting all my fancy superman powers I’d want, too.
TV SHOW GUILTY PLEASURE: “Scandal” and “Orange is the New Black.”
PROUDEST MOMENT: Giving birth.
WHAT’S ON YOUR NIGHTSTAND: My iPad; two books, “The Power of The Actor” by Ivanna Chubbuck, and “The Real Actor” by Jeff Seymour, and my girls’ school papers.
HOW DO YOUR FRIENDS DESCRIBE YOU: Crazy, beautiful, loyal, honest compassionate and loving.
DESCRIBE YOUR DREAM ADVENTURE: To go on an African safari (minus the spiders and mosquitos).
I WISH I COULD BETTER: Relax.
DESCRIBE YOUR DREAM JOB: To have a co-starring role on a popular soap opera or TV series and to be a brand ambassador for a major makeup/skin care company.
AS A CHILD, WHAT DID YOU WANT TO BE WHEN YOU GREW UP: Olympic track star and actress.
WHAT WAS YOUR BEST GIFT EVER: Christ dying for me on the cross.
