There was a fleeting scene during Sex and the City last night in which three whorish girls in a dive bar attempt to thrash Samantha for kissing some dude. It was one of those scenes where three girls are needed to
look like whores, but only one of the whores gets to speak. And that one said something like, "I'm gonna slap the shit outta ya," and then they all started running. So I'm watching the credits, and I notice that one of the actresses who "played" the "2nd girl in bar" only has
one name: Olla or Odala or something. And I'm thinking, shouldn't she probably get a
little bit more work under her belt first? I really can't see some casting agent going, "Oh, Odepha? Is she available? No, you know her; she was "fourth bridesmaid" in that TNT thing, and then "girl in taxi" on Law and Order. Thank God she decided to just call herself some
word. I'm so tired of fledgling actresses who use their
names. Get her. And pay her whatever she wants."
