Post What would you ask Blair?

Recently I talked to Lisa Welchel on a local radio show. I was thrilled to be able to tell her how much I enjoyed FOL but the host needed a question and the only thing I could think to ask was, were they really told to diet at one time? She said yes it was true and she didn't blame them, since she was paid to look a certain way. She was very nice. But I'm wondering, what would you have asked?

..I'd say she's under legal contract to where she's not allowed to reveal details of the reunion.

If I had to ask "Blair" something, I would ask if she looks back now on her hairstyles and goes "Enough with the mousse!!"

If I had to ask Blair...also known as "Lisa" LOL, if I had to ask her something, I'd probably ask her something involving religion...I'd think of something

If I could ask Blair Warner something, I would ask her "if she was born like that or if her parents instilled it in her?"

If I could ask Lisa Whelchel something, I would ask her "what she would have done with her life if she hadn't pursued acting and how she enjoyed working with the female actresses on the set?"



There ya go...hmm. Wish I COULD meet her

I still can't believe they hounded Lisa about her weight. I've read about it in her Creative Correction book about it, and Lisa has always looked the right size to me. I never looked at her and thought that she was fat and needed to go on a diet

Then I would ask Lisa Whelchel how she felt protraying a "Marcia" type character, Blair Warner, on The Facts of Life on .

Default re: questions for Lisa/Blair

There are a lot of questions I would like to ask Lisa, but last April
she declined to answer any of my questions during her Q/A session because she assumed I was going to ask some high-falutin' "philosophical" intellectual questions. She told me I could ask them later. But I have NO IDEA why she thinks I would ask super-intellectual questions... So here are some questions for her, super no-brainer questions:

1. If God is everywhere, is He REALLY, REALLY out there looking in some ice cave on some frozen dark asteroid in a solar system on the far side of the Andromeda Galaxy? If no one has really been in probably 99.9% of the known universe, why should God have concern for what goes on in some frozen ice cave where light barely hits???


2. Okay, here's a Blair-question: How do you keep your hair so soft and fluffy and so darned BLONDE????? What's your secret????
