| RONN'S SENSE OF HUMOR |
 |
Ronn has a dry sense of humor that some may not undertstand. He made comments about Brooke, a character on 'The Bold And The Beautiful'. Some people took them more serious than they should have and began attacking Ronn. Just a reminder: Brooke and Ridge are not real people...
RONN: I'd like to start this off by saying I can't believe how much my words can get SO misinterpreted. I guess that's what I get for trying to have a sense of humor in my interviews. That's one thing I dislike about doing print interviews. You can't actually see the persons face or hear their voice to know when they're majorly kidding. The other thing I hate about interviews is that they are always geared toward finding out information about the person being interviewed. So.....when you try and add something funny or different than you've just said in the 23,659 interviews you've just done, everybody freaks. Add to that, a possible language difference, maybe a few people who just like to add their own made up rumors because they hate Ridge (or me), and you get everyone pissed off about things I said in some interview #14, I did at 8:47am somewhere I can't even remember now, after being up since 5:00am and managed to drag myself through the previous 13 interviews without so much as a cup of coffee to sharpen my wit.
Now, first of all....... I have NEVER ever said I don't like Hunter or Katherine! AND...... I have never said I don't like working with Hunter or Katherine. I love both of these wonderful women as people and as talented actors. And I have since a couple minutes after we first worked together. If I said anything about not wanting to do the Ridge/Brooke or Ridge/Taylor thing, it's because I'm just expressing my own frustration with the possibility of rehashing Ridge's relationship with either of these characters only to have them pulled out from under him (no bed reference here) after 15 minutes of story-line.
My only advice is to please, from now on, take the things I say in my interviews with a huge salt lick. (That's a horse reference). I want to say I'm going to be responsible for everything I say from now on. I'm going to give the facts and only the facts. And every interview is going to be different, interesting, informative, thought provoking, and pithy. But.....that just ain't so. Sometimes I say things just to amuse myself or mess with the person interviewing me. Sometimes they're just trying to get some dirty laundry. Sometimes they think I don't know that's what they're doing. So I pull out one of my skanky workout shirts (figuratively speaking) and give it to them. They walk away happy, and I get one step closer to never doing interviews again. Trust me, from someone who doesn't really like talking about himself, interviews are just a necessary evil of this business I've so lovingly chosen. Ultimately, I will have to take responsibility for all my flippant, depraved, lack of sleep induced comments in all these years of being asked the same damned questions over and over and over again. But right now.....I think I'll just have fun with them because that's my only defense against completely loosing my mind.
Other than that........ I'm feeling fine these days. I'm truly seeing the power of positive thought in manifesting things I want. I'm enjoying my more frequent jam parties where friends and music collide head on. I'm working out physically more than I have in years. And I'm trying to change any and all traits within myself that I feel have been holding me back from achieving my dreams.
