Wanda was chatting with Majandra and Shiri&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\n<strong>Roswell&#8217;s Maria and Liz Come to Chat!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Heavenly earthlings, Shiri Appleby and Majandra Delfino beamed in to answer your most pressing Qs&#8211;everything from upcoming Roswell-ian plot twists and on-set happenings to what&#8217;s going on aside from the show.<\/p>\n<p>Hey, boob-tubers! Hope you have your Roswell Qs rarin&#8217; to go, because Shiri and Majandra are here and ready to take &#8217;em. So, let&#8217;s get started!<\/p>\n<p>From katy: Thank you for taking the time to answer your fans&#8217; questions. Here is an easy one: Who are you a fan of?<br \/>\nShiri: Majandra Delfino. I&#8217;m her number one fan.<\/p>\n<p>From yiota: This season, will Maria get a boyfriend she&#8217;s satisfied with? She seems unhappy with Michael.<br \/>\nMajandra: I don&#8217;t know if she gets a boyfriend she&#8217;s satisfied with, but she starts to realize life is more than just having a boyfriend.<\/p>\n<p>From Johnny_from_San: What&#8217;s better or worse about the move to UPN?<br \/>\nMajandra: It&#8217;s better, because they&#8217;re excited to have us. They&#8217;re promoting us. And there&#8217;s nothing worse I can think of.<\/p>\n<p>From noghri: Roswell won&#8217;t be on forever (unfortunately ;(. Do you ever think about what you&#8217;re gonna do afterward?<br \/>\nMajandra: I&#8217;ll probably continue to do the music thing.<\/p>\n<p>From Jula: Looking from the outside in, how do you see the season so far, and do you like the direction the show is headed?<br \/>\nShiri: I think the show has gone back to being based on the relationships and the characters. I think it&#8217;s working a lot better than it was last season.<\/p>\n<p>From julie: Your show is one of the bright spots during this tough time. Has the September 11 attack affected any of the storylines?<br \/>\nShiri: Not that I&#8217;ve noticed.<br \/>\nMajandra: Not really.<\/p>\n<p>From scerwee: How does the cast get along?<br \/>\nShiri: We all get along really well. It&#8217;s like a family at this point.<\/p>\n<p>From Jasmin from Germany: How does it feel with your private life being the center of most of your fans&#8217; interest?<br \/>\nMajandra: I didn&#8217;t know that! But I guess it&#8217;s cool. I&#8217;d rather they be interested in something than not be interested. But they don&#8217;t know much about my private life, because I don&#8217;t have one!<\/p>\n<p>From daphne: I read that you cried when Colin left. How did you feel when Emilie left?<br \/>\nShiri: It&#8217;s always sad to lose a cast member. It was a little more dramatic when Colin left, because his character died.<\/p>\n<p>From lyly: Majandra, are you going to tour sometime soon? I love your songs!<br \/>\nMajandra: I&#8217;ll tour during my hiatus, or if the show gets canceled.<\/p>\n<p>From lulu12: How different is filming the show now compared to filming the pilot?<br \/>\nShiri: It has totally changed. It&#8217;s just a different experience altogether. When you&#8217;re doing the pilot, there&#8217;s this thrill of: Will it be picked up or not? Now things are more stable.<\/p>\n<p>From Shelby: Hey, Shiri! I love the show. Obviously, all of us Max and Liz fans out there are wondering what&#8217;s ahead for the two of you. Jason Katims mentioned a twist in February. Any hints?<br \/>\nShiri: I think Liz starts to realize the consequences of being so committed to Max.<\/p>\n<p>From wendie: Do you have any input when it comes to your character (writing, clothes, etc.), or do the writers and producers have total control?<br \/>\nShiri: The writers have total control. You get to have input on the clothing, but writers have final say. We get to keep some of the clothes we really like.<\/p>\n<p>From Rodrigo from Rio de Janeiro: Who would you like to guest star on Roswell?<br \/>\nMajandra: Jack Nicholson. He could play my dad.<\/p>\n<p>********************<br \/>\nFrom julia: What do you think about the cycle of breaking up the couples for more creativity?<br \/>\nMajandra: I think that sounds like a great idea. I also think that&#8217;s what teens do. They&#8217;re kind of flighty.<\/p>\n<p>From Jan Taborsky: How do you think Liz would accept Max&#8217;s son if he were around?<br \/>\nShiri: Well, at this point, she&#8217;s so in love with him she would accept it. But, at the same time, it would be a constant reminder that he&#8217;s with someone else. So it would cause some drama.<\/p>\n<p>From noelia: Is it difficult as a Hispanic actress in an Industry where diversity is sometimes frowned upon?<br \/>\nMajandra: It&#8217;s only difficult when I try out for Latin roles, because my blond hair and fair skin make casting directors believe I&#8217;m not Latin, which seems quite stereotypical.<\/p>\n<p>From nicole: If you could be any character on TV, who would you be?<br \/>\nMajandra: Probably Dick Van Dyke on The Dick Van Dyke Show.<\/p>\n<p>From Riscado: I live in Brazil, and I&#8217;d like so much to know if there are any plans for your CD to come out in countries besides the USA.<br \/>\nMajandra: My CD is available at majandra.com and can be purchased over the Internet, so it&#8217;s available to anybody.<\/p>\n<p>From kelyann11: Any chance of Maria speaking or singing in Spanish?<br \/>\nMajandra: Speaking has been talked about, but the other has been tossed around, and she definitely won&#8217;t be singing in Spanish.<\/p>\n<p>From tayloredmax: What would you say to someone just starting out in acting?<br \/>\nShiri: You just have to be very driven within yourself and not take anything personally. They&#8217;re not rejecting you; they&#8217;re just looking for something more specific.<\/p>\n<p>From Mandy from Plano, TX: You&#8217;re absolutely fabulous as Liz! Tell us about a day in the life of Shiri.<br \/>\nShiri: Um, well, a normal work day is like this: We get there at 6 a.m., have lunch at 1 p.m. and shoot until 6 p.m. Then I go home and get some sushi&#8230;and that&#8217;s me.<\/p>\n<p>From jennifehr: Majandra, will you do any shows around L.A. to promote your CD?<br \/>\nMajandra: Definitely. I haven&#8217;t tried to fit it into my schedule yet, but I&#8217;m sure we&#8217;ll do that.<\/p>\n<p>From maura: Last season touched on the subject&#8230;do Liz and Kyle develop any powers?<br \/>\nShiri: Yes. And that&#8217;s all I can say.<\/p>\n<p>From merlinda: How was it working with Clayton Crane? (He&#8217;s really hot.)<br \/>\nMajandra: It was fun. He&#8217;s a cool guy&#8230;a very fun actor to work with. He and I got along well.<\/p>\n<p>From Augusto in Argentina: What do you think of the success of the show in other countries?<br \/>\nMajandra: It&#8217;s great! It makes me happy to see that other countries get it. I can just imagine what we sound like dubbed and stuff, so I apologize for the bad acting&#8211;but it&#8217;s not us.<\/p>\n<p>From wolverine687: For Shiri: What is your plan after Roswell?<br \/>\nShiri: To probably audition for other things and maybe go back to school. I was a sophomore when the show got picked up. All of my friends have graduated by now, so it&#8217;s kinda weird.<\/p>\n<p>From katy: While Max and Liz may be a couple, we rarely see them in the same scenes. Is this going to change in upcoming episodes?<br \/>\nShiri: Yes, I think so.<\/p>\n<p>From jolene: What TV shows, past and present, do you enjoy?<br \/>\nMajandra: The Bob Newhart Show, The Dick Van Dyke Show, Dobie Gillis and The Donna Reed Show. I just thought she was so cool. And Rhoda. I love the old stuff.<\/p>\n<p>From starbright: Is it really true you are best friends on and off the set?<br \/>\nBoth: Yup.<\/p>\n<p>From Candy_gurl: Kudos to Maria for finally getting her shining star in music! But does she have to give up Michael for that? Please tell me they get back together.<br \/>\nMajandra: Well, as most of you could tell, Michael was a very bad boyfriend. And I think he gave a really bad message to teenage girls about what they&#8217;re expected to deal with. What he put Maria through is not something any girl should go through. Unless he does a complete 180, she stays away from him.<\/p>\n<p>From kellyann: Are you, like your character on Roswell, a romantic fool?<br \/>\nShiri: No. I hope not.<br \/>\nMajandra: Definitely not.<\/p>\n<p>From mandy: When will we see you in more films?<br \/>\nShiri: I have a movie coming out called Swimfan85. It&#8217;s a fatal-attraction story set in high school. It stars Erika Christenson, Jesse Bradford and Clayton Crane.<\/p>\n<p>From jillian: What&#8217;s in your CD player right now?<br \/>\nShiri: Pete Yorn. Dashboard Confessional. Majandra Delfino. The Sicks. Coldplay. Dave Matthews. Dashboard Confessional is so good.<\/p>\n<p>From anonymous: What&#8217;s gonna happen in the next few episodes?<br \/>\nMajandra: Let&#8217;s just say it gets better. We&#8217;ve got Thanksgiving and Christmas coming up, so there are a lot of holiday-based shows that are really good.<\/p>\n<p>From Carolina from Mexico: Can you tell me something about the diary you&#8217;re doing?<br \/>\nMajandra: Basically, it&#8217;s a day-by-day journal entry that I type from home. Whether it&#8217;s interesting or not&#8211;that&#8217;s up to who is reading it. Sometimes I have art and pictures. It&#8217;s pretty personal. I update it pretty much every day.<\/p>\n<p>From patricia: How do you like Maria&#8217;s role this season?<br \/>\nMajandra: It&#8217;s starting to get juicier.<\/p>\n<p>From TheWaves: Does the online community ever freak you out in their intensity\/obsession? Do you ever not like going online (for Roswell) because of the reaction to certain things and certain actors\/characters?<br \/>\nMajandra: They totally freak me out! At the same time, they totally make me laugh, especially the bashers who come up with things that don&#8217;t exist.<\/p>\n<p>From ginamaria1981: What do you think you have in common with your character?<br \/>\nShiri: We&#8217;re both best friends with Majandra. Besides that, not much. But she&#8217;s a pretty loyal person, and I&#8217;m loyal. And sensitive.<\/p>\n<p>From ginamaria1981: Majandra, what do you think you have in common with your character?<br \/>\nMajandra: Nothing. We both can sing.<\/p>\n<p>From jill: Is Brendan Fehr taken? If not, can you ask him to marry me?<br \/>\nMajandra: [Laughs.] You&#8217;ll have to ask him yourself.<\/p>\n<p>From riina23: Sometimes I think I&#8217;m too old (21) to obsess over a TV show, but I love Roswell nevertheless. Do you two have any shows you&#8217;re addicted to?<br \/>\nShiri: I could watch I Love Lucy for the rest of my life. I like to get the Sex and the City box sets and watch them over and over.<\/p>\n<p>From ismail79: Shiri, what was Xena like?<br \/>\nShiri: It was pretty cool. I got to go to New Zealand for a couple weeks. And Lucy Lawless was so fun.<\/p>\n<p>From aliasrules: Would you want to do a Buffy-type musical episode if you could?<br \/>\nMajandra: No, I hate to sing on the show. I don&#8217;t like being fed the kind of music I have to do. But if it were just Appleby singing for an hour, I&#8217;d be behind it all the way.<\/p>\n<p>From lizzyp177: Majandra, have you ever considered going to other parts of the world with your music?<br \/>\nMajandra: I hope I have the opportunity to. I hope and pray I can. Acting is a money thing, but singing is my priority.<\/p>\n<p>Okay, peeps. Sorry, but Shiri and Majandra had to jet, so you&#8217;re stuck with me for the next fifteen minutes.
