Actress Nerd Under The Microscope: @LorielleNew

#TalkNerdyToMeLover's Awesome Applesauce: Charles Quevedo

A few years ago, often frequented LiveVideo and happened upon one of the site's more popular livestreaming talents -- Lorielle New (@loriellenew).  After a few minutes of listening to her stories, I discovered that she was a Hollywood actress that had performed many independent films.  She was sexy, funny ... and just plain ol' nerdy.  She was simply adorable.  I loved how she made me and everyone laugh.  After a few messages back and forth, we became friends.  I lost contact with her for a few months when I left LiveVideo, but immediately re-established contact with her on Twitter and Facebook.

"Talk Nerdy To Me Lover" is proud to give you an exclusive interview with this wonderful and charming actress:

Q: How did you get started in the entertainment industry?

A: My first entry into the business was working for Michelle Pfeiffer as a a"photo double" and "stand-in."  She's an amazing woman and I learned a lot from her.

Q: How many films have you done?

A: I have about fifty credits on IMDB. 

Q: What's your favorite acting role?

A: So far, my favorite role is my character, "JB Devay", from "The Pit and the Pendulum".  I had a lot of fun with that role.

Q: Speaking of "The Pit and the Pendulum", how was it doing that film?

A: That film was shot in 4 days -- for a TINY budget.  I did my own hair, make-up, and wardrobe.  It was exciting and exhausting.  I had a lot of dialogue and was basically going non-stop for the whole 4 days -- I loved it!

 Q: If you could work with any "A-List" actors/actresses, who would you choose?

A: If I could work with anyone right now, my dream cast would be: George Clooney, Viggo Mortensen, Vincent Cassel, Cate Blanchett, and ME!

Q: Have you ever experienced the "casting couch"?  if so, how did you deal with it?

A: I believe the "casting couch" is a myth of television and movies.  I've never seen it or heard of it happening in real life.

Q: If you weren't acting, what occupation do you think you'd be doing right now?

A: If I wasn't an actress, I don't know what I'd be doing ... probably be dead.

Q: Are there any future plans to direct or produce?

A: I'm currently writing and developing a web series that I plan to produce and star in.

Q: As a well-known actress in Hollywood, you get invited to many Hollywood events and charities.  What's that like?

A: I feel lucky.  I get invited to many red carpet events: premieres, parties, and charity functions. It's fun to get dressed up, but I think it's important to help and show my support for causes and films.  And you have to remember -- these events are work -- every appearance is marketing, so you have to be on your best behavior, too.

Q: You're known for your unique fashion style.  How would you describe it?

A: You think I have a unique style?  Thanks!

Q: What social media websites do you love visiting?

A: I'm all over the Internet!  You can find me everywhere!  But to make it easier, start at my own personal website -- www.loriellenew.com -- and you can find the links to everything there!

Q: If you were President of the United States, what would you change?

A: I don't want to be President!  I want to be "Queen of the World"!

Q: Any pets?

A: I don't have any pets.

Q: What kind of hobbies do you have?

A: I like to work out, do yoga, and work on my art work (painting and prints -- you can see some of my pieces on my website -- I've even sold a couple!).

Q: What are your favorite movies?

A: My favorite movies are "Gone With The Wind", "True Romance", and "Anchor Man".

Q: What makes you smile?

A: I like positivity, shoes, and dark twisted humor.

Q: What irritates you the most?

A: I dislike negativity, passive agressiveness, lying, cruelty, rudeness, meanness, and people who don't come to a complete stop at stop signs or use their turn signals.

Q: What's your favorite words of wisdom?

A: "Be nice and positive.  You are the master of your own destiny".

Q: Do you consider yourself "sexy"?

A: Sexiness is in the mind.  So yes, I'm hella sexy!

Q: "Nerdy" is the the new "sexy".  What qualifies you as "nerdy"?

A: Anyone who watches my live daily talk show, definitely knows I'm a nerd -- a sexy nerd, but still a nerd.

Q: Are there any websites/links you shamelessly want to plug?

A: Go to www.loriellenew.com and it will lead you to the rest of the links.  Follow me on Twitter for updates and pictures.
