Yesssss !

Minnie got an Emmy® Nomination! YAY! \o/

Right after that she appeared on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
Although I missed most of their jokes and conversation, she got to sing 'My Beloved One'.
I was riveted. Her group has the exact tone and sound of Fleetwood Mac. Or is that just me? Maybe it's their piano.
I was very impressed. I couldn't believe how smooth the words and instruments blended.
Her band could probably do perfect covers of any Fleetwood Mac songs.
I'd love to hear them with her English accent... Very Happy

I hope she wins this award.

she rocked the house down in her performance as Carlota in The Phantom of the Opera. I like her acting there and also in the movie Return to me with DAvid Duchovny

Last week I saw Minnie on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
Minnie is quite pregnant. She followed guest Howie Mandel who is well schooled in Mel Blanc cartoon characters,
like say, Foghorn Leghorn.
I don't know why, but Howie suggested Minnie use a feather duster to impersonate rooster Foghorn.
After all, Mr. Mandel is thoroughly crazy. What, what, was he thinking?
I could see that Minnie had no idea what, what, Howie was talking about.
This, after spreading brown Cheeze-Whiz at her feet, I think he owes her an apology.
Howie seemed very impolite, but then, OCD stand-up comics are like that.
Anyone else see this?

Since the Riches, I'm on a Minnie Driver kick.
I've always known her to be a talented actress, but honestly.. the show has got me hooked.

Her music is even good.
Honestly was a bit skeptic at first, normally actor + music = not that great.
Changed my tune as soon as I listened though.

I'm now on a mission to watch all her films,
figure i'll just go down the list of Imdb.

Curious about Take since It's next on my list & I'm going to try to see it when it comes out close to me.
I think it's already playing in certain cities, has anyone else seen it yet?
