I spent a few days cooped up with Chobot during the Santa Monica E3. My production team and I were running LiveWire. Not a fan of hers. She asked me to run to Starbucks for her (I was producing the effing stream, not a gofer). I go, wait in line forever, get her some crazy obnoxious drink, run back and within 1 minute of taking it, she spills it all over the floor. She also never offered to pay.

Not a fan..

If only there was some way to say "no."

Either you say no, you tell someone junior to you to go, or it becomes your job.

Here's a picture of me with Eva Mendes

You can see why she'd be confused thinking you were a gofer because when she asked you to go for something you did.
It was well established who I was well before she asked me to make the coffee run. We had been doing LiveWire for a few years for IGN.

I have a picture of me and R.L. Stine together, I ran In to him in an elevator. Very awkward. Can't find it anywhere though.

I've met hundreds. I haven't taken a picture with any. I'd only do it if they asked.
There have been situations where a third party might have accidentally gotten me in the same frame but that was before everyone had a camera at all times.

Preferably non-photoshopped.

Years ago, I was at a conference in South Beach. After leaving a club with a few customers, we stumbled into a beachside Irish pub. One of the women in our group noticed George Wendt from Cheers and the actor who played John-Boy Walton sitting at a table. They were in town for a production of 12 Angry Men. The woman approached Norm and asked for a photo. He gladly obliged and I snapped the picture. Not wanting to pass up the opportunity, I asked him the same question and he snarled.. So I stood behind him and the girl took the photo anyways.

Ignoring the fact that I'm fat as hell in the photo, please take notice of the beer stains on Norm's shirt. He stayed for another hour and then we got to witness him drunkenly stumble down the sidewalk hopefully towards his hotel.

Never has a thread been started on looser foundation then a picture of yourself standing giddy behind a drunk Norm from Cheers.
 
I like Jessica Chobot :p

Who doesn´1?!

Oh.. Sorry to hear that. Only had the chance to chat with her and Fran for about 5 minutes. Didnt want to disturb them any further since i had quite few of Sony sponsored wines already..

Did you take a picture of her without her consent? Maybe that's what got you downgraded to guy who gets coffee.

Kissed a mod for a tag; liked it
Despite working with a few celebrities, I don't actually have any pictures of me posing with any of them. As someone who works in below the line positions on film sets, I've always found it unprofessional to ask for a picture. I always cringe when I see PAs do it.
 
One of my favorite memories... so nerve-wracking too!! I spent months preparing for the possibility of performing for him, I didn't even know if it would happen since normally they are pretty tight w/ security and all that stuff. Luckily it did happen! :D

Did he praise you? I hope so!

But why did you go?

While reading I was getting hyped for her reaction when you declined to be her gopher, that I was totally let down when you ended up being her gopher.

Not me, but my bro has a photo with Gwen Stefani taken waaaaay back in the lat nighties with a film camera, meaning not only I have to sip through photo albums and boxes of actually physical print of photos...I have to find it, scan it and post it here.. so fuck it!

There's almost certainly video somewhere of her grabbing my ass. I haven't seen any but it must exist because it was so public.
