Feast of Fashion Blog: Derby Day Delights
By Dina Rosendorff
Actor Michael Vartan was absolutely lovely, particularly when, after a few champagnes, despite being a major Vartan fan and watching Alias quite regularly, I had a blank moment and confused him for Keifer Sutherland. The conversation went something like this:
------------
ME: Are you enjoying Australia?
HIM: I absolutely love it here. I'll go on record to say it's my favourite place in all the world.
ME: And how's 24 going?
HIM: That is the funniest thing anyone's asked me all day. You have just made my day. I'm not on 24.
ME: Oh my god, I want to die, I'm so sorry! I meant Alias....
HIM: No please, don't worry, that was hilarious. Some Hollywood actors take themselves so seriously, but I don't. That was great. Don't cut that out. And sadly Alias has been cancelled....
----------
So in the interests of full editorial disclosure, I obeyed Vartan's orders and displayed my public shame for the world to see. But he was genuinely a pleasure to hang out with and showed that being from Hollywood doesn't automatically make you an ***hole. Here he is with film director Greg McLean.
