| We got a call last week from Mr. Mojo of the "Mojo Casting agency", to work as featured extras on the very anticipated made for TV movie: "Monkey Planet".
This is the stuff dreams are made of. This is going to be THE TV EVENT of next season! And we are part of it! It is directed by the famous adult film director: Douglas Dexter, and stars his favorite actress: Desiree Chardonnay. I was told the budget on this mega-production soared to almost $ 2 million! And YES, we are part of it!!! This is the make up trailer where Vince and I spent 4 hours every morning... |

| This is a picture of me on the first day. After my 4 hours of make up. I was so hot. We were shooting in the desert outside Vegas in a 110 degree weather.
I could barely see anything through these contact lenses. They are made out of thick plastic, and we re-use them every day. Same with the masks, we used the same ones for 3 weeks. They got very sticky after a while... They told me I had to get rid of my trade mark costume. That wasn't fun. By the way, I passed out on the 1st day, about a minute after Phil took this picture. |

| That's my roommate and best friend Phil Schwartzetti in full make up. He also was very hot, and kept passing out all day, even in the middle of a scene!
After the 3rd day, the director noticed that Phil had kept his hat on in all the scenes. Vince got very pissed off when one of the assistant tried to take the hat of. He started to fight, but passed out from the heat... Later, he told me he only took this job to meet his favorite actress, the great Desiree Chardonnay. |

| This is Desiree in full make up and costume. She plays the female lead in the film.
It's a very important scene where she tells her gorilla boyfriend about her affair with a circus monkey. Phil was hitting on her every day, but he kept passing out from the heat. He got her to sign all his video tapes of her. He told me he even got a date with her, but that it turned "kind of weird". Not what he had expected, especially with that "other guy hanging around". |

For weeks after the shoot, we both kept passing out all the time. I guess our bodies had gotten used to it or something.
Poor Phil had no idea our Landlord's dogs would attack him while he was out. He woke up in the hospital with 56 stitches on his face. |
