Poor Bunny


Miss Drama, The Constantly Dramatic One, has met Glenn Close. I haven't, but Miss Drama reminded me of one of my favorite stories from Disneyland, when Miss Close was visiting the park. Unfortunately, I wasn't working at the time.

Alice in Wonderland and the White Rabbit were out greeting guests in the park when Miss Close arrived. The Mad Hatter spotted her first, and walked right up to her.

"You!" he screamed at Miss Close. "You stay away from Mr. White Rabbit! I've seen what you do to poor, helpless, little bunnies."

Glenn Close laughed her head off, I'm told.

Glenn Close was a strange one. Well......I sort of met her the year I went to Disneyland LA. I think she was there to promote 101 Dalmatians. I'm not sure.

I was too young at that point. I remember a lot of attention was on her and then she turned around, look at me and gave me a smile. All I could think of was "Why is tall white lady smiling at me?". Then my family and I just walked away from all the commotion.

When I got back to Malaysia, there was heavy coverage of that movie on TV. And in one of the makings of, I saw her again being interview for her role as Cruella deVil so thats when it clicks. "Tall whitle lady" who smiled at me was Cruella DeVil.

Only years later when I am older that I know she's Glen Close =)

TCDO, wow! Too bad you didn't get a photo with the random, tall white lady, LOL!

Q, why? She has a rabbit fur coat?

N, thanks!

Righesonore, you are my first blog visitor from Italy - I am honored!
(I wish I could read Italian, so I could understand your blog).
