genre right now, but to stay popular, we should keep it at a
minimum." 

Jen says, "What do you think of the recent trend in TV with shows
such as "Buffy...," "The X-Files," and "Millennium?" Is it
something that you would like to see more of?" 

Charismacordelia says, "I haven't experienced anything
so far. I'm not famous yet." 

Ultimatetv presents the speakers with question #274 from Davejustdave:
Do you find that fame has it's downsides? 

Charismacordelia says, "Joss' wife went to school with a
really mean girl and her name was Cordelia." 

Charismacordelia says, "But there's a story behind that
name." 

Charismacordelia says, "Strange, no. But our names are
so uncommon, so in that way, it's hillarious on the set,
because people call me Cordy on the set by mistake. Our names
are so outrageous."

Jen says, "Have you done many online chats before? Are you very
computer "savvy?"" 

Charismacordelia says, "They gave me contacts to wear,
white contacts, and they were a pain in the butt. I actually

In "The Witch," did you roll your eyes up into your head to look blind, or

think." 

Jen says, "Good question." 

Ultimatetv presents the speakers with question #254 from Lucien:
what do you see as the greatest challenge in playing your role? And then,

directly, because I work with a pretty great group of people and
I'm early on in my career and every working experience is
worth working in." 

Jen says, "Who would you really like to work with?" 

Charismacordelia says, "No, but I'm just waiting for
some, like, Robert Deniro type guy to walk onto the set. That
would make my life." 

Ultimatetv presents the speakers with question #229 from Mysticknight:
What's the most interesting thing that's happen to you on set?

but I have to be here for work. I'm from San Diego, so home is
always nice. Some day I would like to live on a ranch
somewhere with my dogs and have a horse. I like Andie
McDowell's lifestyle."

would rather be?" 

Charismacordelia says, "I stay up writing my lines over
and over again to memorize them so they come across naturally."

Ultimatetv presents the speakers with question #161 from Mysticknight:
What is your favorite thing about acting? 

Charismacordelia says, "Short term career goal... is to
do a small independent feature, that would be ideal. Not
necessarily the lead. I'm living my dream now."

home on my desk to respond to." 

Charismacordelia says, "(play ... typo by tv james)" 

Charismacordelia says, "Yes, I have seen it. A couple
of times, for researching this role and my role on Malibu
Shores, but I just watched it. I didn't take notes, or... no
one performance really influenced how I played
Cordelia." 

Ultimatetv presents the speakers with question #152 from Aduty:
Have you ever seen the movie Heathers and has it influenced your performance
as Cordelia? 

Charismacordelia says, "It was in our contract that we
don't mingle with the players. I guess some player's wife found
out about a cheerleader/football player romance and nixed any
mingling."

to Charisma." 

Ultimatetv presents the speakers with question #150 from Blade:

next season." 

Ultimatetv presents the speakers with question #141 from Malkavian:
what was the funniest thing that ever happened while filming Buffy The
Vampire Slayer? 

Charismacordelia says, "Cults are scary, considering
what happened in San Diego, my hometown. Vampires on tv are
scary, but do they really exist?" 

Jen says, "How do you really feel about vampires and/or the occult?" 

Charismacordelia says, "Hike, I'm going rock climbing,
I'm running a 5k for breast cancer soon. I just like to be
in the outdoors."

And I'm active every week to maintain a strong, healthy body." 

Ultimatetv presents the speakers with question #133 from Hedylarue:
You have a certain image on the show. Is it hard to maintain your
appearance...weight..etc.? 

Charismacordelia says, "I'd have to say Buffy might be a
little more fun because it's bizarre to sit across from a
vampire at lunch time."

Ultimatetv presents the speakers with question #129 from Lawless:
which was more fun to work on, Buffy or Malibu Shores?

like music that evokes emotion and feeling and moves me, not
necessarily in the physical sense." 

Ultimatetv presents the speakers with question #126 from Smith:
What is your favorite band? 

Charismacordelia says, "No, but anybody can." 

Ultimatetv presents the speakers with question #124 from Buffie:
Do people stop you on the street to ask questions? 

Charismacordelia says, "Yes, but everytime I'm put on
the spot to answer them, I can't think of them. I like Holly
Hunter, I think she's really talented. Julliette Lewis,
Claire Danes is really talented, considering her age."

acting?"

Ultimatetv presents the speakers with question #106 from Aduty:
Is Cordelia ever going to get a clue about what is going on with Buffy & Co
and if so would she join them? 

Charismacordelia says, "Because I like the humanity of the show." 

Charismacordelia says, "Party of Five." 

Jen says, "Besides "Buffy..." is there any show on TV that you like
to watch regularly, and why?" 

Charismacordelia says, "And there were always people
more popular than I was." 

Charismacordelia says, "In fact, I was a cheerleader. 
Obviously, I took cheerleading to the umph-degree, being a
professional cheerleader for a short time." 

Ultimatetv presents the speakers with question #99 from Hedylarue:
What was your high school experience like? Were you popular or a
cheerleader? 

Charismacordelia says, "Submit resumes with your picture
to local agencies and try not to take rejection personally." 

Charismacordelia says, "Move to L.A., number one, if you
want to be in film. If you want to be in theater, move to New
York. Enroll in acting classes, see if you like it."

more." 

Ultimatetv presents the speakers with question #81 from Alexander:
What do you look for in a man??? 

Charismacordelia says, "Amazing." 

Charismacordelia says, "That I'm nothing like my
character. I'm a normal human being like everyone else. I
really enjoy the outdoors and I spend a lot of time keeping and
staying fit." 

Jen says, "How is your relationships with the other cast members?" 

Jen says, "Is there any one thing about yourself that you would like
people to know?"

Vegas, but you can't take the vegas out of the girl."

Ultimatetv presents the speakers with question #72 from Hedylarue:

It's called "Out of Mind, out of Sight." But also, "Puppet Show"
was a lot of fun because I had to overcome singing in front of
gobs of people." 

Ultimatetv presents the speakers with question #29 from Waxtadpole:
Which episode did you most enjoy doing?
