I think Lauren is one of the best actresses I've met, she's as beautiful in person as she is on the screen I met her by chance when I was married, we were at Twin Palms in Pasadena, CA with my ex-wife and some friends, celebrating one of our firend's Birthday she came over to our table and asked me if I attended her high school and I was someone she knew from school, I wish I said yes, but being honest, I said no. God is she beautiful!!!

I was so upset that they killed her character off! I've been going through Lauren Holly's filmography slowly but surely, haha, and I love the "Goodbye Earl" video. XD She's gorgeous and a stellar actress and deserves every award and happiness imaginable. <333
