[Kimberly Shaw]

The Bree Van De Kamp/Marcia Cross Appreciation Thread #7

All About Marcia

- She was born on March 25th 1962 in Marlborough, Massachussetts.
- Her nickname growing up was 'Messy Marcia' because of the fact that she's so unorganized.
- She first decided she wanted to be an actress in the sixth grade whilst performing in a school play.
- She graduated high school early, and was accepted at the Juillard School in New York as a Drama Major.
- She's 5'10, a natural redhead and she actually has blue eyes, not green eyes.
- Before Desperate Housewives, she was most famous for playing the beautiful yet nutty Dr Kimberly Shaw (Mancini) in Melrose Place.
- In 2002 she earned a Master's Degree in Psychology from Antioch University in California.
- She was actually a practising therapist before accepting a season long role in Everwood in 2003, and was planning to give up on her acting career altogether!
- Apparently, her least favourite part of her own body is "her ass" (whhhy?)
- Last year she was included on E!'s list of the 50 Most Wicked Women on Primetime in the role of Kimberly Shaw.
- Recently she was included on VH1's list of 40 Hottest over 40.
- Her nicknames on the set of DH include 'The Body' (which the guys christened her after the infamous lingerie scene), and 'Mama Marcia' (used by Shawn Pyfrom who plays her onscreen son, Andrew).
- In August this year she got engaged to her boyfriend, stockbroker Tom Mahoney. They hope to start a family soon.

*is making tons of Kim/Michael caps for somebody at the Marcia LJ community*

I just saw it and she was soooo cute! It was very funny, you know, because Marcia is totally not domestic

Here are a couple screencaps:



PS. Sarah I sent you an email, thought I'd let you know since it tends to be wonky.

[Kimberly Shaw]

Oh my gosh, she looks so beautiful! Her hair looks divine, and I love her necklace I'm so hyper to see it now, I can't wait Awww for non-domesticated Marcia, she's such a doll

PS. Sarah I sent you an email, thought I'd let you know since it tends to be wonky.

I got it, and have replied Yay!

[Kimbreely]

Unfortunately I couldn't hear the interview, but I could see, and I have to say that it was preety funny! Especially the part Marcia was trying to fold that shirt and the part she was cooking! What did they talk about? The only thing I could read from their lips was Marcia saying she was happy! lol!

Plus, she look so good now that she has put on some weight! So beautiful!

I agree about the weight thing. She looks fuller, healthier and she just glows. Gorgeous It's nice to see that she must have found a balance somewhere along the line. I bet being so happy with Tom sure doesn't hurt Cys, Alison is sending me the clip that she made (it'll be better quality) and then I'm going to upload it, so hopefully the sound will work for you I've picked out some of my favourite quotes though:

Marcia: "I thought if Bree was feeling really wild, I would ask for it back and y'know, wear nothing underneath it." (talking about the faux fur apron)

Martha: "So what made you go into that field?" (about pyschotherapy)
Marcia: "Um... the fact that I can't cook."

Martha: "So do you have a new boyfriend now that your husband has died?" (about the show)
Marcia: "Oh, well I could be anybody's so... maybe the mailman!"

Martha: "I just get so nervous watching that show."
Marcia: You do? As nervous as I am right now?"

Marcia: "I hope he's not expecting this. Don't expect this Tom!" (about the fancy eggs)

Awww, thank you Sarah, but unfortunately, I didn't have a problem with the file, the problem is that I had to reset my computer and now I can't install the audio in it, you know? It preety much sucks, because the season is about to start and I won't be able to download the episodes. :'(

I loved the quotes, specially the one where she mentions Tom!

PS: If anyone knows how I can fix my problem with my audio, please PM me! I'm begging!

Thanks for the caps. She looks so beyond pretty. I love the necklace too. Anyone know where one would find a replica?
