Michelle Williams - Michelle and Rachel Appreciation Thread #1 - Because Rach admires our girl's work

**Shadowhunter** · 10-20-2006, 04:55 AM

I thought I might start a thread on Michelle and Rachel Bilson. Since, Rachel has been saying so many nice things about Michelle, I think it would be great if the girls would finally meet

Some nice quotes from Rachel herself.

"I want to do movies, she says, holding up former Dawson's Creek-er turned Oscar-nominee Michelle Williams as inspiration. Back in the day, I'd say I admired Katie Holmes for going from [television] to a movie career, but it's cool how Michelle Williams didn't take the paycheque. And she came out with an Oscar nomination. She took a part that was practically nothing and made it this amazing thing. That's admirable."

She certainly has role models, actors who got their start on "O.C."-esque teen soaps, but made the transition to more mature roles.

"One I like to use an example is Michelle Williams because she went from 'Dawson's Creek' and just did roles she believed in for the most part anyway and really was patient," Bilson says. "And then she was nominated for an Oscar down the line because I think she was really smart."

fabiolaribera91 · 10-21-2006, 09:44 PM

**Shadowhunter** · 10-22-2006, 05:22 PM

I know. Maybe, Rachel was stalking Michelle

fabiolaribera91 · 10-22-2006, 05:24 PM

LOL!! it could be possible

**Shadowhunter** · 10-22-2006, 09:33 PM

I know. Even though, it's wrong I think it's cute if Rachel did do that.

novaleigh · 10-23-2006, 06:13 PM

thanks for the pic! That is so cool, that it was Rachel in the background. I wonder if they met that night.

**Shadowhunter** · 10-25-2006, 05:33 AM

I wonder too

I bet Rachel would of been so giddy if they did meet.
