Overheard: Goblet of Fire Edition

During a screening of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Natalie and I ended up sitting next to J-Lo’s hairstylist (or so he claimed). He also claimed (loudly) that he did hair for Natasha Stilwell, host of Discovery Canada’s Daily Planet show. His comments gave me weeks of material, but I’ve decided to condense my 10 favorites into one post.

  1. “OMG… Look. It’s J-Lo. I absolutely LOVE her. See the hair? That’s a tri-layer. Three colors. Takes four hours. Wait, shhh, look at this thing she does with her leg. Faaaabulous!”
  2. “No, this is the fourth movie. They’re all in a row. In this one, Harry is like 16 or 17 by now. There’s like 12 other books after this one.”
  3. “What’s that say? Snickers … really … satisfies. Hm! That’s really good to know.”
  4. “Oohhhhh, fruit roll-ups. The cherry ones are really good.”
  5. “Natasha? Oh, she has the thinnest hair. It’s terrible. And Jay? Poor dear has clown hair.”
  6. “Oh, King Kong. What have they done to you? Kong isn’t mean. He’s actually very nice. They got it wrong, wrong, wrong.”
  7. “Is that? DeNiro! I should do his hair. Call me!”
  8. “You know Allen and I have been friends 20 years. Still don’t know his last name.”
  9. “Oh Barbra (Streisand)! Look how sad Barry (Gibb) is. Must be from recording with you.”
  10. “Harry’s owl is magic. It’s not that owl. His was made from chocolate. From white chocolate.”
