Small FW Amber article

[Incarnadine]

I went back to the 7-11 and copied down the article while on a munchie run. I thought the Amberholics in here could use anothewr fix so here it is:
Amber Benson takes the bull by the horns and follows her dreams. This past year the young actress commendably wrote, produced, directed and starred in the film Chance. She might be best known for her role as Tara, the soft-spoken lesbian witch on the Emmy award winning series Buffy the Vampire Slayer. But unlike her shy and quiet character, the exuberant actress conveys a sense of self-confidence and refuses to buy into the whole Hollywood body image craze: "I'm not going to throw up, starve myself or over-exercise into oblivion to look like a model." A lover of movies, music and books Benson lists as her influences musician Jeff Buckley, Hemingway, her mom and her sister and one day would love to work with Albert Finney and Johnny Depp. When asked her best quality Benson replies, "I try and be happy as much as possible." And what does she define happiness as? "Not worrying about anything, taking life as it comes to you."

Apart from saying BTVS has won an Emmy it's pretty good. I took a closer look and found there were also articles with Amy Acker and Alexis Denisof. I never knew Amy was just supposed to be a guest star, I though they planned to make her a regular from the start. All 3 have 1 full page pic. Amber is on a plush white carpet (might be fur) with her hair up in a beehive like do and a tastefull browm top with mesh sleeves (pic only shows her from the waist up). The Amy pic is rather cute too. Amber article is on pg. 77 pic on 69, Alexis and Amy are both on 76.

Yes, thanks very much indeed. My brain is addled, does this pic sound like something we've seen before? Otherwise, a scan will be needed.

And hasn't BtVS won some technical-type Emmys, makeup and stuff? That would make it, strictly speaking, an Emmy-award-winning series.

I scanned the pic:

The second scan is just a crop/enlargement into 1024x768 for wallpapers.

I don't know if the magazine is still on the stands because I got it through eBay.

Thanks Nick!! Oh man I really need this mag, ok wait, Amber is so beautiful but I didn't know she'd joined the B-52s

Oh and incarnadine, at the kitten we just love amber, we are not addicted to her, so we avoid that -holic terminology.

Incarnadine, from this non-Amberholic, thanks for typing this up.
And thanks for the great scans Dead Dog.
Lovely hairdo, heh heh, and her head looks so very lovely just where it is, level and on her shoulders.

actually i'd like to clear up a widely held misconception- Buffy [b:309a5fa835]has[/b:309a5fa835] won an Emmy. In fact it's won 2. Both from Season 2 for Outstanding Makeup for a Series for Surprise/Innocence and one for Christopher Beck for Outstanding Music Composition for a Series for Becoming- Part 1.

Beck and the makeup people deserve to be recognized for the well-earned props. So it's not a writing, acting, or overall win. But there're still Emmies...

that said I like the Amber pic and blurb... thanks Incarnadine and Dead Dog...

ROFL, she really is beautiful, you have to be to pull off that look

Thanks Incarnadine for the transcript and thanks Nick for the scans.

You're right, Brian - you know Amber is beautiful if she looks decent in a beehive hairstyle. But I do like that darker color on her - at least in this pic. When her hair was dark on the show it didn't look so hot for some reason. I say bring back the rasta hair she had in Tabula Rasa.

Hey - Amber and me have something in common: we both want to work with Johnny Depp.
