Title: Magna..you go girl!
Post by: TERRY308 on December 20, 2002, 03:09:11 AM
Don't you just love Magna?  When they gave this part to Grayson Hall, she loved it to.

All those colorful clothes, jewelry, I'm mean alot of jewelry, the black wig, some make-up so she'll look darker, the green stole, tarot cards and the carpetbagger purse, I love it.

And she's got a mouth too.  She get these order from (sigh) Barnabas, and if you'll notice, she always say's a put down remarks to him.  Barnabas is not the only.


Poor Quentin.  She's always getting over on him.  Beth, Sandor, Judith, Dirk Wilkins  [uzi] ( I'd give her a metal for that), the Reverand Trask and his whole family, everyone but one person...her sister, Jenny.  

Magda, your an angel. [angl]

Well, angel might be stretching it a tad...,but she is sure is a whole lot of fun! Great part for a greater actress.

I would surely not wish for Magda to trick Barnabas in that fashion... altough Quentin should have known better than to trust a gypsy who smiles at  you while your drinking anything.

Grayson does do a fantastic job at portraying Magda! I also love how she does up the famous gypseeee accent. It must have been a challenge to keep that up during the storyline but she plays it off with such ease. I loved her character of Magda and wished that they used her in some of the other storylines as well.  Also, it must have taken hours to apply that dark make-up all the time,  even her hands are dark!

i wonder how long it took to take that make up OFF?  It probably wasn't as easy as today's stage makeup that just washes off under water .. I speak from recent green experience. .

Remember the old Coppertone "self tanning" cremes & lotions?  Well, I wonder if it was similiar to that because when you applied them they were suppose to last for a couple of weeks.  I hated those lotions back then!  I remember using them and having my skin turn ORANGE.[/b][wow]

They've really improved since back then though, now they "actually" make you look like you've got a real tan, well, at least the Coppertone brand does and I guess after 25 years, they should have improved!;-)
