I think I got a bad connection. I didn't see much of the video part . But I did get to hear all the audio.

I liked the part where she was talking about the Xander's dream/Ice cream truck. Where everyone was around wasnting to see what they looked like all slutty and stuff.

Anyway, thanks for the link. I really did like it.

Thanx Shazza!!!

I loved it. I did get to see the whole video, and it was so cool. Amber was being really cute, especially with the part about the onion. And, indeed, also with the part about her and Willow being hot chicks in Restless.

Thanx again!!

Well it has probably been transcribed already somewhere, but I am too lazy to look, and I needed to brush up on my typing skills, so here ya go Hemiola (oh and I may not have understood everything word for word, being deaf and Dutch, is something of a handicap when transcribing an interview in English. So if I misheard something, please say so):

Interviewer: Come closer, don't be shy...

Amber Benson: *cute giggles*

I: So how is it, you know, joining a show that already had some legs, and coming in as a series regular?

AB: You know, it was strange, because you walk into a situation where people already have relationships, but luckily I was friends with Alyson Hannigan, who plays my girlfriend on the show, before, and so er..walking in was like old home, because she was so...She'd prepared everybody. "Amber is really cool. Treat her right..." and it was just really cool walking in there and having like a family, so....

I: When you got the part, did they, you know, reveal what they were gonna end up at the end of the season revealing about you, or did they just start...

AB: No, I had no idea, and about 3 episodes in we had a talk and they said "this is kinda the direction we're gonna go. How do you feel? And I was like "Hey, I'm an actor, and I'm cool with it. I just hope I can do justice to the part." It's a big responsibility you know.

I: Isn't it more challenging and more rewarding at the same time now that you have this other side?

AB: Oh totally, totally...I mean, it's an actor's dream. You know, where you get to play a many layered character. It's like peeling an onion. You keep going, and there is more and more and more, and it just gets sweeter and sweeter as you go.
Well, not really like an onion I guess (laughs), but more like, I don't know, what's sweet when you go inside if you peeled it?

I: Ah er..I don't know, oranges or something?

AB: (giggling) My goodness..I'm getting...Woo! (more giggles)

I: Your favourite moment from last year on the set, where something, you know, when you are trying to get a serious scene done, you just can't and everybody got the giggles, and you know, special effects aren't working...

AB:We have this scene in the finale from last season, where Alyson and I are in Xander's dream. we're kinda hookery, we're kinda dressed up like slut chicks, like hot chicks and it was so funny, because everybody...We were like surrounded, everyone wanted to see what we looked like, all dressed up like hot chicks. So like all the teamsters are in there and everybody is coming in. People that don't need to be there.
So it was kinda funny, we were sort of laughing. You know, we just couldn't keep a straight face and everyone was like looking in on us. We were in an ice-cream truck.
High heels, you know, and push-up bra's...

I: To you it was Halloween, to them it was Victoria's secret.

AB: (laughs) Exactly...Two lesbians in an ice-cream truck together. Hmmmm......

You're very welcome Hemiola and TaraMaclay, I had to watch it like ten times in a row to make sure I heard it correctly. *sigh* That was *very* hard. With Amber looking so bloody gorgeous and all...

I

[Unregistered(d)]

Garfield, I'm constantly amazed at the things you'll endure for the good of the kitty board. I mean, having to watch Amber's interview ten times in a row. That's like, water torture man.

You know, this plus Allyson's [i:dcc11bb44e]Playboy[/i:dcc11bb44e] interview remind me yet again that this board is in many ways a shrine to four extraordinary young women. By that I mean Willow and Tara, as well as Allyson and Amber. Four very different, interesting, beautiful and beguiling ladies we're luck to share our times with.

Thats' all. Nuff said.

Thanks for typing up the interview Garfield and are you sure you only had to listen to it 10 times? Oh well as Ruth said, the things you do for the kitty

What a wonderful interview. I've never seen Amber out of character. She was so animated. Her voice even sounded different.

Is there any way to save the interview on my computer (my documents or favorites?) so I can look at it again once. I don't know a whole lot aobut computers, so please be specific. Thanks everyone.

Thanks for transcribing the interview Garfield . I couldn't get any sound from my computer to listen to Amber speak, Grrr!

The interview is on the message boards at IGN.com, a scifi and games site.

Amber looks so beautiful, especially her hair and those great big eyes.

Thanks Garfield for typing up this interview! Much appreciated! Just cracks me up how Amber describes the ice cream truck experience!

The interviewer was really, really awkward with Amber. Why he couldn't even say the word lesbian! Makes me love Amber and Aly more that they are so darn comfy with describing their characters and their relationship! Yeah on our 2 fav witches!
