teenhollywood_marc: Okay, Emmanuelle Chriqui has now joined us! Welcome to the chat room, Emmanuelle!
Emmanuelle: Hi, nice to be chatting with you guys!
jmnowac asks: What was your favorite scene in 'On the Line'?
Emmanuelle: My favorite scene was the first time that we were on the bridge reciting the presidents. And the sequence of the movie -- the ensemble dance. And when Justin and Chris come in.
Cutie3511 asks: How many times have you seen the movie?
Emmanuelle: How many times.... I've seen it four times!
LBkiuke asks: Have you always wanted to be an actress since you were little? -Emi
Emmanuelle: Yes, since I was a little girl. I've always known that I've wanted to do this. I just always knew that I wanted to do this! I have no idea why.
blondangel26 asks: how was it working with lance? i think he is soo hot and sounds soo cool..
Emmanuelle: He is sooo cool, for sure! It was one of the best experiences I've had making a movie thus far. Working with Lance, he is really professional and really fun. He became such a good friend.
Cutie3511 asks: Was your boy friend afraid Lance was going to take you away from him?
Emmanuelle: No, I think he .. Gosh, we've been in this industry long enough to know that it is not worth it to get swept away by something of the moment.
Cutie3511 asks: What scenes were cut from on the line?
Emmanuelle: There was some of Joey's stuff that was cut that I actually never saw, but I heard was really funny. There was also part of the restaurant scene where I am with my boyfriend, where some of that got cut. That was a shame because that was one of my favorite scenes too...
sonyrc550 asks: Hey Emmanuelle. I was wondering if you will be going overseas to promote the movie. If so, which countries will you be visiting? By the way, I think you're awesome. Also, do you know an address where I can write you a letter?
Emmanuelle: Honestly, I'm not sure. I'm not sure what the plan is. If I can be, absolutely I will be ! You can write fan mail to: Shelter Entertainment, 9255 Sunset Blvd., Suite 1010, Los Angeles, California 90069
otlgurl asks: hey emanuelle whats up I just wanted to say i loved the movie and i was wondering was your charector Abby in anyway close to u in real life love u and good luck in the future Heather
Emmanuelle: Yes. In real life, I'm not a very complicated person and neither is Abbey. Just kind of fun spirited and lighthearted and that's pretty much how I am. No, in that I'm not a diehard baseball fan!
jmnowac asks: Since you were filming the movie while *NSYNC was recording their album, did you get a sneak preview listen?!?!
Emmanuelle: Yes. I actually got to be in the studio when they were recording "Selfish" It was awesome!
LBkiuke asks: Are you a morning or a night person? I'm a night person, I hate getting up early! -Emi
Emmanuelle: I agree with you! I am such a night person, I am not a morning person and I never have been in my life. I like to start my day at noon!
KikiZoe86 asks: Hi Emmanuelle! What was your job before you became an actress?
Emmanuelle: I had a couple of different jobs. Mostly, I was a waitress in different places. I worked at a desert house, I worked at a couple different Italian restaurants. I always waitressed because it was just the most flexible kind of job that would let me go to auditions and that kind of thing.
JoanLuvsLance asks: The KISS, we want to know about the KISS!!
Emmanuelle: The kiss was a really fun day. Lance and I had hung out for a month and a half -- just hanging out and becoming really good friends. By the time the day of the kiss came, it was so almost akward because it was like kissing your best friend, but worse because it was like kisssing them in front of hundreds of people. Lucky for me, Lance was a really good kisser. And that is a good thing because we had to do the scene for more than four hours.. so had he been a bad kisser it would have been a really long day !!!
sleeplessinseattle asks: Em, What is next on your schedule as far as upcoming movies?
Emmanuelle: Well, I'm reading a lot of different scripts and I'm auditioning for a lot of really cool parts. It will probably be something a little more serious than "On The Line", probably a little more dramatic.
jmnowac asks: Have you joined Lance and Joey in sneaking into any theaters recently to see fans' reactions to the movie first hand?
Emmanuelle: Hahah, no, but at both premieres in New York and L.A., we got a good glimpse of how fans responded in theaters and it was so much fun!!
LBkiuke asks: What are your favorite foods? -Emi
Emmanuelle: My favorite foods.. I LOVE sushi, I could eat it anytime. I love salads believe it or not. I love exotic vegetables like artichokes. Salad and Sushi... and french toast!
missypixie asks: will On the Line be showing in the UK some time in the future?
Emmanuelle: I'm sure it will be.
delightzNET asks: I never get my questions asked, but I'll try anyway, who did you meet that you were totally blow away at?
Emmanuelle: Steven Spielberg, Jude Law, Lenny Kravitz. Those are the top three!
dream517 asks: Hi Emmanuelle! Just wanted to know what you like to do in your free time? - Melissa
Emmanuelle: My free time.. I love to go dancing, I love to read books, mystery novels and autobiographies and anything that is really interesting. I love to travel to little weekend trips to bed and breakfasts in small towns. I like to do Yoga and Hiking and hanging out with my friends. Sometimes I'm inspired to write. That kind of thing.. Oh, and sleep! My favorite place in the world is my bed!!
whitestargirl asks: emmanuelle, what's your dream role you would love to portray in a movie and why? from rodsella, panama
Emmanuelle: I would love to portray, probably a street person of some kind. Either some drug addict or a prostitute or something like that. Only because it has always facinated me. When I see these people on the street, I wonder what their story is. How did they get there, why are they still there.. Just how different their lives are from my own, I find that facinating!
LuvrGirl asks: Hey Em... i was just wondering what made u want to become an actress??....btw i saw that u were wearing the bracelet i gave u at the Rma's that made my day....Luv Ya..Kim
Emmanuelle: It's just something I've always known that I wanted to do.. I've always been moved by film and ultimately I want to move people the way that I've been moved through film. And I wear the bracelet all the time, I love it!
dream517 asks: Emmanuelle, if you could describe Joey and Lance in one word each what would it be? - Melissa
Emmanuelle: Lance would be... ooh, one word is hard!! Thoughtful for Lance.. For Joey, it would be a Joker!!
Cutie3511 asks: What is your favorite TV show?
Emmanuelle: To be honest, I don't watch a lot of TV. But when I do, I love to watch "Law and Order" -- especially the old ones. I like Ally McBeal, that's a good show. Oh, and the biography Portraits. And the behind the musics!!
whitestargirl asks: do you have a favorite author?
Emmanuelle: A favorite author -- wow! I really love a mystery writer by the name of Mary Higgins Clark. She is so easy to read and you can read her books in like two days! And another author, Paulo Coelho.
justliz_33 asks: Were you an *Nsync fan before you did the movie?
Emmanuelle: Not really. I became a fan through the course of working with them. I knew who they were, I could sing along. I didn't know each one name-by-name. And I think that it was a good thing that I wasn't a fan because I think that if I was I would have completely choked in the audition.
lancesgurl4evr asks: Is it fun having hundreds of girls jealous of you?
Emmanuelle: Haha. Is it fun? I don't really think that they are all THAT jealous... I don't know if jealous is a good word. It's interesting.... You know, I just want them to know how a part of my job this was. This was just making another movie for me. I'm aware that Lance is this big old hearthrob and stuff, but for me this was just work as usual!
Sues asks: Aren't you going to miss doing these promos with Lance? You two seem so close!
Emmanuelle: Yes, I am. Every time we get to hang out, it is the most fun. So now that the movie is out and the promotion is over, I'm kind of wondering "jeeze, when are we going to hang out next?". I'm going to miss him a lot!
delightzNET asks: What's your favorite song from the soundtrack?
Emmanuelle: From the soundtrack? I'd have to say .. I have three of them!!! I like Meredith Edwards' "Ready to Fall", I love "That Girl" by N Sync and Al Greens "Lets Stay Together". And I actually like "On The Line" so I have four favorites on the disc!
whitestargirl asks: could you tell us a funny experience while "on the line" set?
Emmanuelle: Every day was a funny experience. I think we had most of our real fun when we would go out at night. Like we would go out dancing or out for dinner. We went to this place called "The Keg Mansion" which is this big old haunted mansion in Toronto. Whenever we went out, we caused a ruckus which was so much fun! Dinner parties, murder mysteries and pizza nights. Every day was fun!
kiwi_luver asks: I watched "Total Access 24/7", could you give me more info about the cartoon character thing I saw?
Emmanuelle: If you are talking about "Super Dudes", it is this really cool kind of cartoon thing. Check it out online. :)
JennaB asks: Do you know if Lance knows a guy named Kevin in St.Louis? Please answer this question. it's very important to me!
Emmanuelle: I honestly have no idea, I'm sorry.
I_LUV_P_J_L_4 asks: What is your favorite thing to do?-Ashley T
Emmanuelle: My favorite thing? It is to take a really hot bath, light candles and incense, play music and have a massage! And to dance!
lances_gurl4ever asks: What was it like acting with Al Green?
Emmanuelle: Well, it was a really fun day. I have to say when Al Green was on the set he spread so much love and light and laughter, everyone was in a great mood. I didn't get to act opposite him, but getting to be around him and having met him, it was phenomenal.
delightzNET asks: Do you get sick of being so associated with Lance... and the kiss?
Emmanuelle: Lets just say, when all is said and done, I won't miss the question! LOL
hsoc8 asks: Can you really make paper airplanes?
Emmanuelle: Yes, I can! I'm not bad actually.
jmnowac asks: Talk about your appearance on "The View". Kind of a tight squeeze on that couch, right?...LOL
Emmanuelle: Yeah, it was a tight squeeze actually but it was ok because I was between my boys! It was a cool experience to be in New York and to do a talk show with really cool and very respected women. Just to be associated with Lance and Joey is always such an honor.
whitestargirl asks: hi emanuelle, what are your feelings about what the world has been going trough these couple of months? from rodsella, panama
Emmanuelle: I'm sad when I think about it for too much and too long. I'm really sad.. I'm glad that our generation, our society now has their eyes open to what really goes on in the world. I think that living, especially in North America, we are so spoiled here. We've never had really anything terrible happen and now we have a glimpse of what the rest of the world goes through often. I think that the unity that we're experiencing is a tremendous thing and I think that with every devestation that occurs, there is always positive change that comes out of it. I think it is really heart-warming to see the positive changes already in our society.
hsoc8 asks: What song could you listen to a million times and never get sick of?
Emmanuelle: (Previous question) I really hope that the war is over soon. Through watching history, I don't know if violence is necessarily the answer. But unfortunately, that is not the view of our leaders. A lot of innocent people are going to die and that makes me really sad. I would have to say... any song from Sade's greatest hits album... and I would have to say "Joy" by Mary J. Blidge
Lancelover23 asks: When you, Lance and Joey got the henna tattoos, what did yours mean?
Emmanuelle: Mine meant "Truth"
supergirl03 asks: what is your favorite number and why?
Emmanuelle: That's a GREAT question actually! My favorite number is eleven. It is just a really powerful number and it is totally reoccuring in my life. I ALWAYS see 11:11 on the clock, my mom's birthday is the 11th, one of my friend's birthday is the 11th, whenever I stay in a hotel it seems to have a room number with 11 in it or on the 11th floor. Supposedly, there is a book called "11:11" and it says that whenever you see "11:11" on the clock, the gates to heaven are open. I lost my mother ten years ago, and knowing what that means and that I see 11:11 all the time, I know that my mother is watching over me. What a loaded question! :)
OnTheLineWithLance asks: what is ur fave sport??
Emmanuelle: I'd have to say basketball.
jmnowac asks: We've all heard Lance's reaction to Harrison Ford being on the set...what are your thoughts?
Emmanuelle: Yeah, I pretty much freaked out as well. That was definitely odd!!
mckay24_99 asks: How often do you get online?
Emmanuelle: Hardly ever. :( I haven't made my way to the technological side yet. I _JUST_ and I mean JUST got a cell phone like a week ago!
supergirl03 asks: did you get to keep any of the wardrobe from the movie?
Emmanuelle: Yeah, supposedly I'm supposed to get it. I have a lot of great things coming, but I haven't received it yet.
LBkiuke asks: What did you do for Halloween? Did you dress up? -Emi
Emmanuelle: I didn't.. All my friends did and OMG they had great costumes! At the very last minute I went out because I had two auditions this morning and it was a friends birthday. We watched the Santa Monica parade and it was just fun to watch everybody!
Lancelover23 asks: Did you enjoy the Mad TV appearance? It was funny :)
Emmanuelle: I did. I LOVE improv and I think those guys are so funny!
chasez_wifey asks: Hey Emanuelle! I was just wondering, did you get the chance to hang out with JC? (lol, I have the biggest crush on him!)
Emmanuelle: Yes, totally. You know what, I totally hung out with JC and Justin and Chris -- all of them. But probably JC the most They are awesome guys as well!
LBkiuke asks: You said that you like to dance. Have you tried teaching Lance any new dance moves at the clubs? -Emi
Emmanuelle: Haha, you know what, I haven't taught him anything. But we have definitely gone and cut some serious rug on the dance floor! We imitate each other sometimes.
delightzNET asks: Do you believe in love at first sight?
Emmanuelle: I believe in deep like at first sight. I think love is something you really grow into. But I believe that you can see somebody and really have the desire to get to know them.
Yanet2271 asks: What other career would you have gone for besides acting?
Emmanuelle: I never really thought about it. Acting was really my only choice. I do, however, while acting I would love to become a Yoga instructor as well. Something to do on my time off!
DdiceRemote615 asks: Has there ever been a rumor about you that you wish were true?
Emmanuelle: Hahaha! That's a funny question! A rumor about myself.... Gosh, I can't really think of any. If there was every a rumor that I was dating Jude Law, I would love for that to be true. Sadly, there was never one and he is happily married... :(
supergirl03 asks: whats your fav board game?
Emmanuelle: I'd have to say... Scrabble.
supergirl03 asks: is chevy as hot in person as he is on screen, hehe jk how was it filming snow day?
Emmanuelle: Snow Day was another phenomenal experience. Once again I made some really excellent friends. The only downfall about Snow Day is that we were freezing cold!!
george_liz asks: ? Are you from Canada?
Emmanuelle: Yes, born in Montreal, raised in Toronto and I also lived in Vancouver. I love Canada!
delightzNET asks: Ok, here's the major question... do you actually talk to fans? Like, write them back, because I know alot of artists (*cough nsync cough*) don't have time too, and I was wondering if you actually got/wrote back to fanmail.
Emmanuelle: You know, to actually write a letter back probably not because that does take a lot of time. But to send back pictures or something, yeah I totally do.
Yanet2271 asks: Emmanuelle how do you pronounce your last name? since people are always pronouncing it the wrong way
Emmanuelle: It is pronounced "Shreeky" like when someone shrieks but with a y on the end
JennaB asks: what kind of hair and make-up stuff to do you use? u r very pretty
Emmanuelle: Aww, thank you. You know what, I use whatever comes my way. Drug store things like Herbal Essence, pretty just regular stuff. My room mate is also a hairdresser so he uses my hair and does experiments with different products on my hair. Make-up I use drug store stuff too -- Loreal, Lip Gloss -- usually lighter colors. Usually from being on set I will accumulate make-up that comes to me. I have problem skin so I have to be careful what I use. Neutrogena foam cleanser is great make-up wash.
popcultmistress asks: is On the Line coming to the UK (come on, its like 12.50 in the morning here! I need to go to bed!i
Emmanuelle: I'm really sorry, I don't know! Oh my gosh, it is really late there.
whitestargirl asks: are you a supersticious person?
Emmanuelle: I have my little superstitions that I totally do all the time like 11:11. Before I go on a plane, I always say "double heaps". I play little games with myself but I am not over-the-top superstitious.
hearts2u asks: What's the worst job you've ever had?
Emmanuelle: Working at a Deli! I'm like practically a vegetarian. Slicing and washing these slabs of meat was simply disgusting to me!!
hearts2u asks: If you could co-star against anyone who would it be?
Emmanuelle: Right now? I would have to say Mark Walberg or Ed Norton or Joaquin Phoenix, Kate Blanchett, Christina Ricci. Any of the older greats -- Anthony Hopkins, DeNiro, Al Paccino.. all really great.
hearts2u asks: If you could have three wishes, what would they be?
Emmanuelle: Three wishes, gosh.. That there would honestly be peace in the world. Two, would be that my friends and family would always be happy and healthy and living their dreams. And three would be that any of the things that I would like to have happen in my life would happen so long as they came from a pure heart. Cause that way you get a lot of good things happening! Thank you so much to all of the fans who have supported "On The Line" and who have really been so incredibly supportive towards me and accepting me among the N Sync fan base. It is really cool, I was worried because people could have hated me. Thank you so much and thank you for coming out to chat!!!
