Movies
Saw Capote and Brokeback in the same week and wanted to slash my wrists. Generally don't get to see anything that doesn't have a talking animal or car. Best movies ever: Once were Warriors, Dir. Lee Tamahori and 'Yentl' which I wagged school to see when I was thirteen ... WHAT???!!!
Television
Court tv is my anaesthetic. Nancy Grace, a stallion-nostrilled Superstar. Catherine Crier and Keith Ablow my heroes.
Books
Love E.Annie Proulx, including Brokeback Mountain. Reading Empire of the Soul by Paul William Roberts.

Lucy Lawless is in your extended network view more
This show is based on a screenplay set in the time when the music group Frankie Goes to Hollywood ruled the airwaves as well as everyone’s T-shirts. “This post-disco period was epitomized by high times in low places,” says Lawless. “Where disco was a sparkly diversion from the humdrum. The era I grew up in fully acknowledged, even celebrated, its own dark side.”
To tell the story, Lawless has chosen an eclectic mix of songs from top artists from the great Patty Smith, harbinger of it all, Eurythmics, Soft Cell and Cyndi Lauper to Garbage, Marilyn Manson and Jet.
“The Pleasuredome” brings the audience into a world of sex, drugs, temptation and redemption, about which, Lawless says,"I don't know why, but I do 'Bad-Girl' really well." She further states, "My fans always enjoy a tale of redemption...with a heapin' helpin' of Wickedness along the way."
Joe LoDuca, Emmy Award winning composer of Xena: Warrior Princess, has helped the New Zealand born star put together a remarkable band. The show will also feature actor/singer Laura Sperrazza.
This is Lucy's page and she sat down and used all ten fingers to fill in some of the blanks.
Here are some tidbits that didn't have a place in the little boxes they have on this site:
Children: 3
Education: Marist Sisters' College, Mt Albert and proud drop-out of Auckland University
Zodiac Sign: Zodiac is daft
Smoke/Drink: Smoking is sucked. Can't drink wine, have developed intolerance of nitrates and realised I never liked it in the first place. But love a stiff G&T on a hot day.
Who I'd like to meet: Chrissie Hynde, Dusty Springfield, Keith Ablow (forensic psychiatrist)

Hello there Lucy, "feel the love" is such a good idea. i will take some free time i have and use it to help someone out, or send some things to people in need. thats one of the reasons why i'm a fan of yours, because you truly care about the people out there that are going through bad times. your natrual, kind, forgiving, caring, and many more. your an inspiration to many, and i admire that. be safe and always think positive about things, it will make a day easier.
How can you succeed in managing perfectly with so many things at one and the same time?! I can hardly follow the list of all the events you’ve gone through! “Spartacus” shooting, Comic-Con participating, interviews, “Sign On” & Blue Cast and “Paw Justice” generous campaigns, “Supernova Swing” charity… WOW!!! Where do you take all this energy from?! You are like a lightning! You really are more than fantastic and unique, the most gentle and tender-hearted person ever! God bless you and all that you do, sweetheart!
