Aislinn Paul recently appeared in OTM WebZine. The three page spread, which can be downloaded in the current issue here, includes brand new photos as well as an interview. Aislinn discusses her role on Degrassi as well as how she keeps a balance between acting and normal school life. She also talks about some of her really bad audition experiences, like in this excerpt:
Aislinn recalls one in particular: five kids were lined up for a non-speaking role, Aislinn being one of them. The casting director was asking them all a series of questions like, “What’s your favourite game? What do you like to do? What T.V. shows do you watch?” When he fired the questions at Aislinn, she honestly responded, “You ask way too many questions!”
The casting director took her outside, handed her over to her dad, and she obviously didn’t get the part.
“My parents have always told me that acting isn’t my life yet – it’s something I can do for fun,” says Aislinn, “so I learned not to take rejections like that to heart.”
To read the full interview and download all the pictures, all you have to do is download the Summer 2010 issue of the zine. Big thanks to the Aislinn thread at Fan Forum for this info!
