Norah Jones and Her Blueberry Pie
Well it’s certainly been a while since we’ve heard from this little lady. Nine-time Grammy Winner Norah Jones recently sat down with the Chicago Sun-Times to discuss the blush worthy perks of her first acting experience in My Blueberry Nights.
The movie, which is a character-driven drama, focuses on a young woman’s turbulent breakup and her attachment to an all-night diner where she spends hours quietly chatting with the chivalrous owner played by Jude Law.
After finally getting her fill of the culinary artists’ famous blueberry pie, she sets off on a trek around the United States in an effort to find herself.
Although Jones has made more than a name for herself and is celebrated on many continents, she has essentially stayed humble…very humble.
“I had to kiss Jude about 90 times and I didn’t want to laugh, but it seemed so ridiculous,” the 28-year-old giggled. “What in the world am I doing kissing Jude Law? He’s Jude…and I’m…me.”
Just because she has never participated in a film does not mean she’s unable to bring anything to the screen, as director Kar-Wai Wong actually used her lack-of-background to his advantage.
“He told me not to take acting lessons,” Jones divulged. “He just wanted me to be raw and natural. So in many ways the entire movie was one big acting lesson.”
And one big make out session!
The new release is currently playing in select theatres across America. To view the highly-anticipated film’s trailer, visit - http://youtube.com/watch?v=zFWEWwE-hjc
