Crazy Legs in a Music Video?
October 28th, 2005Today I had an audition for a SugaBabes music video in which I danced around on stilts. I’ve never heard of the SugaBabes, but apparently they’re really big in the UK. The director of the video is looking for people with “special talents”. So my agent submitted me for it as a “stiltwalker” since an old resume listed that as one of my skills (really as a joke). It was completely coincidental that I actually just bought a pair of stilts. For the audition, they called us in three at a time. One guy was a breakdancer. One guy could karate kick really well. And I was a sliltwalker, of course. We all three performed our “special talents” at once while a Kanye West song played. So while the breakdancer did the worm and the karate guy made kicks in the air, I walked around in the background on my stilts. I can’t speak for my other two compadres, but I’m pretty sure I hit it out of the park.

Rob, your lack of respect for British music is indicative of the general attitude that the Great Satan, the United States, holds toward the rest of the world. May you burn with the heat of a thousand hot suns.
