Joie Song of the Moment:

(credit: Doreen for the transcript)

Leaving Town Alive

Spendin’ all your money
Ain’t it funny how the time goes by
First you start believin’
Then you’re leavin’ for no reason
And you’re wonderin’ why

So ‘til the morning breaks
Go and make your mistakes
Don’t be surprised if your head hurts
Life is for the livin’, the forgiven
And for leavin’ town alive

Whisperin’ the ways, watchin’ days, and movin’ on
You wake up every Monday
And suddenly it’s Sunday and the week is gone

So ‘til the morning breaks
Go make your mistakes
Don’t be surprised if the sun rises
Life is for the livin’, the forgiven
And for leavin’ town alive

Oh do you wonder where it starts, where it ends
What you find ‘round the bend
Oh do you wonder where she’s from,
Where she goes, no on knows
Now and then, you wonder

Why you’re spendin’ all your money
Ain’t it funny how she walks on by
She had you all believin’
Now she’s leavin’ for no reason
And you’re wonderin’ why

So ‘til the morning breaks
Go and make your mistakes
Don’t be surprised if her heart hurts
Life is for the livin’, the forgiven
And for leavin’ town alive

How Do I Love Thee? Let Me Count The Ways:

She's from somewhere very far away and we thank God every day that they sent her here because she is so unique and so just different from any person I've ever met. (Hilarie Burton)

Joy's someone who challenges herself to be electric on every take. Many times she will make choices that elevate the material. And that's when you really win. (Mark Schwahn)

She's quiet, soulful. That's a good word for her. She's one of those people who are just really talented. (David Hartley, One Tree Hill producer)

[Joy is an] actress who's very fresh. All of her stuff seems like it's happening in the moment. It's wonderful to work with her. (Paul Johansson)

The audience took to Joie in the snap of a finger. I've never seen anything like that before. (Mary Alice Dwyer-Dobbin, executive in charge of Procter & Gamble productions [Guiding Light, As The World Turns])

I love working with Joie... My first impression of Joie was, 'Damn, she's 17.' (Paul Anthony Stewart, Guiding Light)

Joie Lenz... wasn't she great... I got her a gold bracelet at the end of the shoot that had "Reva 17" inscribed on it. What a talent... We shot 7 shows in 5 days that first week... almost 200 solid pages of material... it could have been a horrific experience... It was great fun... (Robert Newman, Guiding Light)

[Joie is] an amazing person. She's the type of girl who can do anything! She's been fortunate to be in the public limelight on a number of occasions, but we've never seen it go to her head. She's mature well beyond her actual years. She's level-headed and sensible, yet full of that crazy artist-passion which makes her so fun! (a family friend)

I wasn't really a hardcore Danny and Michelle fan, but I did really like Joie Lenz. She easily clicked and held her own with Robert Newman, Michael O'Leary, Hunt Block, Laura Wright, and other actors. Paul Anthony Stewart is a good actor and Joie Lenz clicked with him too. I was a fan of hers from the clone. She was the perfect adult Michelle. She gave Michelle a depth that was lacking since Rachel Miner left the role. There was such a genuine quality to her. She didn't play Michelle as a victimized martyr either. She played Michelle as a true heroine who was sweet, sexy, passionate, and strong. Unlike the current Michelle, her Michelle had a backbone. She was determined without being obstinate. She was warm without being tepid. She was sweet without being saccharine. She was devoted and loyal without seeming like a stepford wife with a glazed look in her eye. She didn't have to try to be sexy. She just was. (a Guiding Light viewer)

I couldn't help but notice that the 'it' she brought to the screen, and in her photographs, transferred to her being right in front of me. Some actors just look different, some look the same, some blend in, but she stood out every single time. What she brought to the screen came across very easily. (a fan on meeting Joie)

It isn't just one scene or one moment that captured our hearts, it's the character that was created and nurtured over time. It's a scene here, a moment there, that look in her eye, the smile on her lips, it's all of them coming together, it's the little things that I will miss and remember most. [...] I will remember all the faces of Michelle: daughter, sister, friend, wife and mother. So instead of rushing home to pull out my tape and watch my scene, I'll just close my eyes, cue the song in my heart and let my mind take me back and just remember... (Joie Luck Club tribute on Joie's last day on Guiding Light)

NH Truelove · 03-23-2005, 11:33 PM

Is Joy getting a lot of flack for that Tyler/ Chad Mice stuff? The pictures from the NYC show had Chad wearing a shirt that said Mice Massacres most wanted. I hope they aren't too mad at her. The whole thing is kinda stupid.

dare.you.to.move · 03-23-2005, 11:40 PM

Whoo, Joie in NY! The rainbow dress again??!? Heh. I love her pink shoes though.

Thanks for the heads up mendozav23.

Pretty thread start scherra. Cute title.

Callalily · 03-23-2005, 11:57 PM

I never heard the whole Mice story. What was the deal again. I'm sure they aren't really made at her. How cute is she?

HERE IS THAT STUPID STORY:

MURRAY 'FLIES MICE IN MODEL PLANES'

American TV actor CHAD MICHAEL MURRAY passes his time by flying rodents in model planes before exploding the vehicles, according to his ONE TREE HILL co-star BETHANY JOY LENZ.

Murray and another One Tree Hill actor, TYLER HILTON, allegedly both like to pick-up mice from pet shops before treating them to a flight.

Fortunately, Lenz says the animals are dropped prior to the planes' destruction.

He tells website LINDZI.COM, "Chad and Tyler blow up things. They buy mice from the pet store and tie them to model airplanes that they fly. They fly the rats.

"I think they drop the rats before the plane explodes. I don't know."

Chad had on a shirt at the show tonight that had pictures of him and Tyler that said "Mice Massacres Most Wanted".

I wonder if they find that funny or are mad at her.
