So I'm in some Eckard's-like drug store with my friend Lauren and we hear on the overhead radio that Orlando's "friendly neighbors 'N Sync" would be shooting at the NYPD Pizzaria and Deli in Downtown Orlando. We convince our parents to take us there and so they do. There are obviously a whole bunch of girls there already (including a nice bunch that keep thinking that they saw 'N Sync, when they really didn't) but after a while they all leave. My father moseys on back to the set where he talks to the casting director for about an hour and snacks on their food and talks to the extras and the doubles (Lauren saw the Justin double, I was stuck seeing the Howie double... ugh). He finds out that 'N Sync has left and if we'd been there earlier, when we hadn't known about it, unfortunately, we would have been extras with them. Then the casting director tells my dad that if we go there the next morning really early, we'll get to be extras with Britney Spears. This was a fabulous opportunity, not because we wanted to be with Britney, but because who doesn't want to be in a movie? Well, we get up at 6 the next day, on our VACATION, and we drive for half an hour, only to find out that because of the rain they have moved production to the airport, of all places. Lauren and I don't want to make our fathers go there so we weren't in the movie. But we saw Joey come out of his trailer at one point and we saw some doubles, and the cousin of a member of Take 5 and a sister of a C-Note (ugh) member... so I suppose it wasn't a completely wasted experience. It was... interesting. Now isn't that fun!?
