Kristen Bell admitted that she had no problem asking the CW for a job shortly after they canceled “Veronica Mars” (which was one of my all-time favorite shows that I never missed and I am still ticked that they canceled it!!!!).
Bell is the narrator for the hit show “Gossip Girl“. How did she get the job?
“I was just about to leave for Hawaii and I had heard about ‘Gossip Girl’ and that there was a narrator and I knew I probably couldn’t play 16 any more, but I called (the head of The CW) up and I said: ‘Remember last week when you canceled “Veronica Mars?” I happen to be out of work this fall. Can I have the narrating job?’ I just pitched myself for it,” Bell told reporters in Los Angeles recently.
“I’m not an idiot. I’ve got a mortgage to pay. I was kind of like, I don’t want to be out of work for six months.”
Kristen Bell has also been seen on “Heroes” and will soon be seen on the big screen in the comedy “Forgetting Sarah Marshall”.
We better see more of Ms. Bell. She’s one of my favs!
