You Might Know Her From Love, Victor; Ugly Betty; Hung; Kristin, Big Mommas: Like Father, Like Son; and Devious Maids. Ana had us in stitches talking about her connection to the LGBTQ community, mastering Marisol's voice for Devious Maids, choosing Kristin Chenoweth over Mariah Carey, dream musical theatre roles, and the authenticity she brought to the Dr. Quinn universe. All that plus Housewives, Drag Race, Smash, and poppers. Sheesh. This one, as Anne would say, is a total barn burner. Enjoy, mon amis!
