I hate to say it but using Alexis as an example is probably a poor choice. She was cast as Rory mostly because they thought she looked the part more than that she was the best actress who auditioned for it. She is the classic example of a pretty model getting casted for a youth centric tv show.

That is not to say that Megan Fox is not only a horrible actress but overrated as well. Still don't like how she replaced Nicole Paggi on the show Hope & Faith.

Hollywood isn't fair. The media attention Gilmore Girls got and the attending fame Alexis got probably gets Alexis roles that perhaps she shouldn't get over others that audition. And certainly her looks don't hurt either.

And she is just as capable of appearing stunning in a magazine such as Maxim or anything else. She just doesn't have much reason to given the movies she's done. The publications you do to promote "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" are rather different than the ones you do to promote "Jennifer's Body." The closest she has come to doing a movie with any appeal whatsoever to a male audience was a tertiary role in Sin City which we got 2 or 3 good photoshoots out of her for.

But certainly it is disingenuous to say Alexis is HURT by her looks. Zooey as well. Either of them could do just fine in Michael Bay dreck. As would a blow up doll. Or a sofa.

I agree sometimes people get parts because of there look or who they are not that they are the best actor for the part.

I was watching TMZ and Camille Guaty was asked what she thought of Megan's acting, she replied with a 'no comment' ouch!

I found this canadian article about The Kate Logan Affair. It's written in french so sadly I don't understand it but I could make out that they state she plays the title role. So at least now we know that for sure.
Anyone here who speaks french? There's also a longer synopsis.

Yep, french is my first language
It says that Alexis started filming 'The Kate Logan Affair' in Montréal (I live in the same province as that city) on september,22. She play a police agent who take a man for a sex offender. Then I'm not sure I understand why (not well explained) she seduce him and that relationship will forever change the life of the man and blabla. Lool I dont feel like writing

By the way, am I the only one whos never heard of that movie? :O
Like, I usually keep in touch with my idols stuff but I never ever heard of that movie before! wooww.. :O Looks soo interessing through!

I think the first news of this movie came up last week or so. She mentioned it in an interview. But it's not even up on imdb yet, though it looks like filming started yesterday.

Thanks for the explanation. I ran it through an online translator but what I got didn't really make sense and sounded quite funny. Although this synopsis is still not all that clear for me to be honest.

No problem
She said it on an interview? If its in a video interview I might have been too focused on her beauty. <3 lol

Thank you for the translation Vanessa

It does sound so different from what she has done before I am excited for her to have such a different role!

She's near to perfection. Her eyes, her character introvert... Beautiful woman.



Amazing! Smart... <3
