One of my good friends is an actress, and the series she was on happened to blow up. She is now pretty famous, and it seems awful. I’m not sure how she feels, but I genuinely hope she’s not unhappy! Hanging out w/ her after she’s blown up made me realize how much I would personally hate to be famous, though… The though…

TLDR: I don’t know if I should put in effort to try again when they obviously didn’t like the first tape. Don’t really have a dire need to do this role, would like to, but I could be putting my mind an effort into better things So I’m guessing I didn’t make the first round of choices, but I’m guessing no one got picked…
