“Eastwick” Star Jaime Ray Newman Interviews With Marta Walsh

I’m so excited to share with you my interview with “Eastwick” star Jaime Ray Newman who plays the character of Kat Gardener. Eastwick is an American television drama series, that is scheduled to premiere on ABC on Wednesday, September 23, 2009 at 10:00 PM ET. Eastwick is a television adaption of the 1987 feature The Witches of Eastwick. Show’s cast also includes Lindsay Price, and Rebecca Romijn.

Newman’s previous roles include: Kristina Carter Cassadine on the soap opera, General Hospital. And, a part in the Steven Spielberg’s Catch Me If You Can, with a scene opposite Leonardo DiCaprio.

In this interview Jaime Ray Newman talks to Marta Walsh about her first breaks as an actress. Her role as Kat Rougemont on the new ABC show “Eastwick”. Beauty secrets, and future plans.

Marta Walsh: How did you decide on a career in acting, and what were some of your first breaks as an actress?
Jaime Ray Newman: I did my first professional play when I was 12. A local theater came to my middle school to audition girls for a new Israel Horowitz play, and I got the gig. My parents first reaction was “There are two people in this household with careers and you’re not one of them”. But after much begging, they acquiesced, and away I went. My first real break was playing Kristina Cassadine on “General Hospital”. I was fresh out of college and thrilled to be working.

MW: What attracted you to Kat Rougemont’s character on the new ABC show “Eastwick”?
JRN: I love playing Kat. She’s quite unlike me, actually, so I really get to dig and create a character. She’s undertaken so much responsibility (5 children, a full time job, a husband who may as well be one of her kids) that she hasn’t had a second for herself since she was 18. She’s struggling to find her voice again, and that is always fascinating to me. Playing someone in deep conflict is always the most interesting.

Watch “Eastwick” trailer below, the show looks so cute! It’s like “Sex and The City” meets “Charmed”.

Talking Makeup at the C.O. Bigelow Media Tour

Talking Makeup had the pleasure to attend the C.O. Bigelow Media Tour at Arizona State University. I met up with the fabulous Melissa from Tractenberg & Co. who gave me a tour around the event and gave me an insight to C.O Bigelow’s history and new products.

I had so much fun checking out the new C.O. Bigelow collections, such as: Village Perfumer which is their new deliciously scented body washes and lotions, Derma Remedy, Barber Men’s Collection, and Mentha Body Care. I also met the beautiful representatives of Bath & Body Works who further explained the products to me and let me test them out.

I got the chance to see how C.O Bigelow’s very famous Lemon Body Cream was made. This cream has been a favorite at the C.O Bigelow apothecary since 1870!


And I even got to make my own T-Shirt using C.O Bigelow’s slogan: Honest. Genuine. Trustworthy. I chose Genuine!

I walked out smelling so good after trying C.O Bigelow’s Mentha Body Vitamin Lotion (inspired by C.O. Bigelow’s best-selling Mentha Lip Tint), and C.O Bigelow’s new body lotion in Rosemary Mint. I can’t wait for the weekend so I can get me some!
