Brie Larson Interview
Little Jen got to interview Brie Larson way before she became Captain Marvel. Brie was very patient and enthusiastic about Jen’s career as an interviewer!
This interview took place at the premiere of Yours, Mine and Ours on November 20th, 2005, which was held at the Cinerama Dome in Hollywood (Jen’s 4th red carpet).
James Hong Interview
Jen was so glad to FINALLY meet James Hong at the 2015 Hollywood Christmas Parade. With his prolific career, you would think their paths might have crossed sooner!
James is now on Gremlins: Secrets of the Mogwai, streaming on Max, and American Born Chinese, streaming on Disney+.
This series, The Early Tapes, features a look at the very first time Jen talked to certain celebrities. Some were already established, others were just starting out in the business, while others were in between. With some, you’ll get a bit more of the behind the scenes banter that didn’t make the cut for the original red carpet reports.
