World's Nicest Star


I just wanted to say that this past weekend I had the honor of "babysitting" Alice at the Vulkon in Orlando Florida, and I have to say that she is the nicest star I've ever met.

Two days of sitting next to her, gathering money, and escorting her places was a dream job. Never an unkind word was uttered by her, and anyone who spends but a moment in her presence would utter an unkind word about her.

We actually talked, she actually was interested and listened to what I said. In fact, when it was dead and people weren't getting her autograph, we'd talk, then fans would come, get her autograph, and she would pick up with where we left off! Not a "Yeah, okay" type of person. Very sweet. I would work with or for her in an instant. The best and very classy as well.

How lovely! I would have like to have met her, but once again I found out about the event much too late to make arrangements to go (and I live in Georgia, so Orlando would not have been a problem for me). I hope to meet her someday as I have heard nothing but nice things about her. And that is a rare thing with celebrities. (If anyone knows of the next event that Ms. Krige and/or any of the STG cast will be present, please post here, as I check here from time to time...).

I went to see her new show Toyer in London and met her and spoke to her afterwards about it and her other films and she signed all my dvd covers i had of hers, i had a pic with her too, she is so nice.

the show was about a man who tricks his way into her apartment and he may or may not be a murderer, it was a really good show with some very scary moments

we spoke about the audience reaction to the show, some of the elements of the show, her work on some of her older films but i still had loads more things to talk about with her so i am going to back and see her again, she was a wonderfully kind person to talk too and doesnt seem to have affected by her star status, she was wearing a really nice dress on her opening night. I love her work and im glad she turned out to be nice.

I just returned from spring break in Paris and London. I saw the final performance of "Toyer" Saturday night (March 21). The play was fantastic, and both actors' performances were excellent. I waited in the bar at the Arts Theatre after the show for Ms. Krige to appear. She and a very funny friend who kept making hilarious comments came in, and my friend and I invited them for drinks. She and her friend came over, and we spent a very enjoyable time with them over some glasses of wine. A very beautiful and nice lady! She had the closing night cast party to go to in the club downstairs in the theatre, yet she took the time to speak with us for over half an hour and pose for a couple of photos. I wish her all the luck in the future in her personal life and her career.

I just met her today at the AFI Dallas Film Festival, after a screening of "Skin". She really is the sweetest and most beautiful person you could meet. I told her she deserves an Oscar for her work in the movie, because not only is she great in it but she plays the character at different points in her life so it's really like she gave 3 or 4 great performances, and with absolute sincerity and humility she started giving alot of credit to the make-up artist. She told me about how he worked with her on "Star Trek" and how he took the job for free. She's brilliant in the movie, I know she has to get at least a Best Supporting Actress nomination. I didn't even realize all the stuff I've seen her in until I came back home and checked imdb. I can't believe she was the lady in Silent Hill! She's so warm and friendly. But yeah, now I have a huge crush on her. Super sweet and super talented.
