Two Celebs Who Aren't Big Fat Phonies

Some celebrities are big assholes. Other celebrities hide behind their publicists, and say exactly what they are told to say and are shooshed by their publicists on the red carpets. But, the celebrities that I like are artists who say what they think and mean. They are the celebrities that Goldilocks chose.

It's always fun to meet the celebs on your favorite shows, but when they're smart, nice and thoughful human beings, it's even better. I recently met these two actors, who are on up-and-coming Showtime shows.

Madeline Zima it the brunet on the left.

She plays David Duchovny's character Hank Moody's sadomasochistic, soon-to-be-stepdaughter Mia on the new Showtime show Californication, is a down chick who's very personable and multi-talented. Zima's currently learning to play 3 Bob Dylan songs on guitar. She's got a gangly, pretty charm, reminescent of another actress who plays an underage seductress, the equally affable Dominique Swain.

Erik King. is the guy packing heat in the photo above. King play Sergeant Doakes on Dexter, and is a super down guy who hugged Ink Pen and then gave sneak peek details on the upcoming second season of Dexter, Ink Pen's favorite show: this season Doakes and Dexter’s relationship is going to become even more complex, and both of them have a history that is going to continue to haunt them. Doakes’ past in Haiti and Dexter’s string of crimes. Now that everyone knows the characters better, they’re going to take us to the next level. If you think Doakes might have a crush on Dexter’s sister Debra, King says to consider that he might just be using her to get to Dexter.
