Rebecca Romijn Comes To Pigeon Forge
This just tickles me to death. Ugly Betty’s Rebecca Romijn came to Tennessee this past Sunday (and didn’t even CALL! First Vanessa Williams, now Rebecca. I feel so jilted ;) )
Romijn and her hubby Jerry O’Connell are expecting twin girls (she is 5 months along), and it would seem that the reports about Rebecca naming one of her girls after Dolly Parton are not exaggerated. She came to Dolly’s home town of Pigeon Forge, TN, to see one of Parton’s benefit shows, and do a little sightseeing.
According to reports, she wore a green fitted tee with capri pants and sandals. Rebecca had her hair pulled back, and wore minimal makeup. (I’m sure her ‘glow’ was sufficient).
“I’ve never seen her [Parton] perform live before. I can’t think of a better place to see Dolly live than the place where all this wonderful music was inspired.”
She’s right. If you’ve never been, it’s absolutely beautiful up there in the mountains.
The trip was quick, but Romijn got to see the highlights. She went to Dixie Stampede, dining on Southern cooking. Then, she had a private meeting with Parton, and went to the concert, which raised money for Dolly’s Imagination Library, which delivers books to preschoolers to stimulate an interest in reading.
Rebecca was there with a friend (O’Connell didn’t come along), and clapped and sang along. “My new favorite song is ‘Little Sparrow,’ ” she said. Her friend wore a Dollywood “Dolly For President” T-Shirt.
“I am a big, big, big fan. My mom and sister are fans. I have been e-mailing them photos of Dolly from here all day,” Romijn said after Parton’s show.
Romijn is back in New York today, preparing for her last week of work on “Betty” before going on maternity leave.
I still say her character Alexis is going to be Daniel Jr’s “father”.
“I am basically taking my maternity leave after this weekend,” Romjin said. “This is my last weekend of freedom, and I can’t think of a better way to do it.
“That’s why I am celebrating.”
Who knew that the well-traveled and sophisticated Romijn was such a down-home person?
