Next week could be a good Fassy week for me. Firstly, I have RSVPd for the Chinese Theater screening of Alien: Covenant and the Ridley Scott hand and foot imprint, where Michael Fassbender will be in attendance next Wednesday the 17th. And then on the 18th, Michael is scheduled to be a guest on The Late Late Show with James Corden. By blind luck, I am on the waiting list for tickets to attend the recording of that show at 4pm on the 18th, but I don't know if I'll actually get tickets. As I understand, they could release extra tickets to waitlist people at the very last minute, but most get a notification days before the recording. So if I'm lucky enough to get notice that I got an actual ticket to attend the recording, I'll go.
Hey Simone Cromer!
Your request for The Late Late Show with James Corden on Thursday, May 18, 2017 @ 4:00 PM has been received, and you have been placed on the Waitlist.
I need time to refer to my personally written but yet to be published, '1001 Blatant Lies to Get Out of Work Early' book, and pay close attention to Chapter 2 on 'New work place lies and strategies', and flag the section on 'Outrageous excuses for back to back days off'. But I ain't dropping life and responsibilities to hope I get tickets a few hours before the recording. So, it's up in the air if I will even go. I would love to attend as it will be the first time I'm going to a live recording of a late night celebrity TV show here in Los Angeles, so the whole experience will just rock. The other guest on the show is my old time girl crush Diane Lane, and cool ass Benecio Del Toro.
A lot of Covenant reviews, ... I mean, a LOT, have been praising Michael's performance as David and Walter in the movie. It's like it's HIS movie, he's so stand out in it with these duo roles. I'm going to stay chilled out and not get too excited. I just want to watch the film, enjoy it, and see yet again, Michael Fassbender do an excellent job at his craft. It's way too early for all this awards/Oscar talk shit because I've been there, done that, three other times with his previous stand out work. Whatever happens, happen.
Wish me luck!
