Lauren is loramful!
Loramful. Confused? Well don't be. It's all about Lauren Graham. As we were talking about Lauren the word amazing keep coming up when talking about her acting abilities. But it doesn't nearly do her enough justice, so Kari (dramaqueen125) and Carolyn (lukelover87) decided to come up with a word that finally would and was just for her. So loramful was born. Lor-Lorelai, am-amazing, and ful-wonderful. Finally a word that does our favorite actress justice!

We invite everyone to take advantage of Lauren's growing and dedicated fanbase by taking part in the Lauren Graham Board for more Lauren-centered discussions. There is now a Lauren Graham Appreciation thread very similar to this one there for your enjoyment.

On July 8th, 2007 this poem was written:

Lauren, Lauren, Lauren you pretty girl with great butt
every time we look at you we can't keep our eyes shut.

You're eyes and smile are gorgeous, too.
You can't blame us for staring at you.

Those legs are your strongest weapon
no-one can resist when they appear under a dress or an apron.

Your voice is so sexy,
and everyone agrees, even Alexis.

You have a charming laugh,
and not returning it seems to be tough.

When we see your shiny hair,
we all cry out: "That just ain't fair!"

And when it comes to acting you are the best!
You totally are able to give all the others some rest!

Lauren, Lauren, Lauren you pretty girl with great heart,
we'll never leave you nor fall apart.

Want to be added to a list? Have something for the intro thread? PM the current thread starter or post on the thread.

[hellojojo123]

thanks for the new thread! I don't know why, i am just happy for Lauren that she got to work with Morgan Freeman.

[Danke]

thanks for new tread:-) you are fast girls.

and there was some serious travel talk and I miss it I love to travel.

and girls, I still secretly hope that Lauren and Matty will attend some european film festival with LoM
and if you organize some big meeting to meet Lauren I shloud probably stay out of it. Im bad luck in this. I had two opportunity to see her but I didn´t. it wasn´t in my fate

[perrygraham]

there's no meeting without you hon

girls, you're nuts, you killed the thread last night

Thanks for the new thread, we should keep this title suggestion for the next thread: 'Cause she is drop dead gorgeous

I love it.

I thought about taking a picture of all my Lauren things I've. We should do this alltogether.

Kathrin, six weeks later has an update

[Copop]

Thanks for the new thread. That really didn't last long Love the title.

Ele, I know Will read it right away.

Hm, the film festival thing. Count me in! Count me in!

[Danke]

Originally Posted by Copop (View Post) Hm, the film festival thing. Count me in! Count me in!

so, which festival would be best? I need to start to plan a days off around them

Ele - my collection of Lauren would be uninteresting to photo, I think But I think Denise once did take picture of her Lauren´s stuff

[perrygraham]

yep, Denise took a pic of her Lauren stuff once.

I would love to see her at the Berlinale, it's not that fancy like Cannes and you can see great movies there

[Copop]

Berlinale would be the best, but only because it's in Germany I think Cannes would be great, all the surroundings and stuff

When are these festivals? Date-wise?

[Danke]

Berlin is close, Im all for it. Do you know in which hotel actors usually stay and another important things like that? Otherwise they should come to Karlovy Vary There is only one big great hotel where everyone stays. Well, except Renée Zellweger this year, she stayed in hotel which is exactly 30m from where I work

[anitabehindhazeleyes]

Oh dammit!!! Why you all have to live in europe??? *sad*

[perrygraham]

Well, Berlinale is in February and I think the Adlon Hotel near the Brandenburg gate is a good adress to see celebs.

I just got One True Thing Will rewatch it tonight.

Now I've to go

[Copop]

OH NO!! Six weeks later This is soooo sad, but good. AW man! Now I want an update really really really fast *sob*

And Renee Zellweger stayed in a hotel in the Czech Republic for the Berlinale

Bye Ele

[anitabehindhazeleyes]

OTT was on tv earlier, hehe.

I wanna go with you guys!!!!

[colorblind]

hey girls

thanks for the new thread like the title

from previous thread

I wish I was Croatian, being American is boring.

don't wish that please. being American is much more fun i'm sure.

[Danke]

well, if the movie is released in late fall next year, it could maybe make it in Berlinale, what do you think? Festival in Karlovy Vary (Karlsbad) is in June.

Bye Ele

ETA: Kathrin, no, Renee stayed in Prague for film festival in Karlovy Vary
