My acting scenes in Kelly Clarkson’s Cautionary Christmas Music Tale

The premise is a show within a show. I was hired to play a stagehand that is working backstage on the show. Unfortunately, all my scenes got cut – but I still get residuals. 😉

In one scene, I had to cross in front of Kelly Clarkson. In between takes, she said, “Man – you’ve got broad shoulders.” I think I blushed.

Client: Tintri
Trade Show: VMworld
Role: Dr Evil or Blofeld impersonator for Trade Show Booth

My acting scene as Dr Evil or Blofeld impersonator for Tintri

I was hired to impersonate the classic James Bond villain Blofeld for their trade show booth. This is who Mike Meyers based Dr Evil on in the Austin Powers movies. The client’s theme for their booth was Bond – James Bond.

I was into 1960’s/Retro Vegas/Space Age Bachelor design before it’s resurgence in the 1990’s . I have watched all the James Bond/Austin Powers movies countless times. I’d love to meet Mike Meyers in person.

My acting scene in Lay The Favorite as Stand-In (Bruce Willis)

Since I was the Bruce Willis Stand-In in Las Vegas for Lay The Favorite, I’m never seen on screen. I don’t have an acting clip to show, but I do have lots of photos. See the Gallery below.

Wow, what an experience! I’ve always liked Bruce Willis since his early sitcom days. We have a similar dark/smart-ass, been around the block type of humor.

On the roof of Bally’s Casino, Stephen Frears told me how they wanted to shoot the entire movie in Las Vegas, but Louisiana’s Film Incentive was MUCH greater. He also talked to me about what it was like directing the incomparable Helen Mirren in The Queen. Later that night at home, it occurred to me this world famous director is talking to me – as an equal/part of the team. Wow!
