CHEESE HELPED ACTRESS LAND ROLE OPPOSITE MARTIN LAWRENCE
LOS ANGELES (Wireless Flash) Actors often land parts based on their looks or talent but up-and-comer Jeannette Weegar believes she clinched a role opposite Martin Lawrence by eating a piece of cheese. The actress who plays Lawrences arch-nemesis Princess Regina in the new movie Black Knight says during her audition, she noticed the director of the film was sampling a gigantic platter of fancy cheeses. Weegar admits shes a cheese freak, so she couldnt keep herself from asking for a slice even though she knew it was bad manners. She thinks asking for the cheese helped her clinch the deal because it showed the director she isnt afraid to be spontaneous a necessary quality for someone acting opposite the freewheeling Lawrence. Black Knight opens November 21.
