Producer/Eve - Eve Flashcards
KIMBERLY: HE SIGNED IT!
PRODUCER: Great, great, great. Hey, how are you? Okay, Kim. You’re makin’ the college rounds now, but remember what I said: We’re trying to be the next Jessica Simpson, the next fat guy on biggest loser, the next Sanjaya. So let’s up the awful factor.

PRODUCER: Cut! PERFECT KIM! You were stupid, obnoxious…a completely terrible person. Just the kind of thing we like to see on reality TV.
KIMBERLY: (Acting normal:) Oh, when we do my confessionals, I should say how creepy the interviewer was and that he was, like, hitting on me.
PRODUCER: Perfect, I got some shots of him, that if we put it in slow-motion, will make him look really creepy. Like lecherous and…
