TV Guide Online: Tonight we are talking with Majandra Delfino about the upcoming ALMA awards and her popular series ‘Roswell.’ Hi, Majandra! Thanks for coming!
Majandra Delfino: Hi! Thank YOU for coming. 🙂
Question: You have incredible music and I can totally relate! When is your album coming out?
Majandra Delfino: I have no set date. But soon. 🙂
Question: Sci-fi or relationships, or both? Which do you prefer? The cyber community seems to be quite split on what they want to watch.
Majandra Delfino: I think there’s a happy medium, and that’s what I would prefer.
Question: Majandra, will you be singing on ‘Roswell’ again?
Majandra Delfino: I don’t know.
Question: What are the ALMA awards, if you don’t mind me asking?
Majandra Delfino: The ALMA awards are Latin media awards. They are going to be on ABC June 17th at 9PM. They’re basically awards for Latin artists in the entertainment industries.
Question: How did you feel about the fans’ campaign to keep the show on the air?
Majandra Delfino: I was so honored, and everybody was so excited. Nobody realizes how much control the fans have over the destiny of ‘Roswell.’ Like, if you have certain things about the show, story lines that you like, if you just voice that as fans to WB, you’d be surprised how much our producers pay attention to that.
Question: Majandra, what award did you present?
Majandra Delfino: Oh, I presented an award to Los Lobos.
Question: What was the weirdest thing that a fan has ever done?
Majandra Delfino: Well, weird? Pretty much nothing. But, cool… someone sent me a leather collector’s edition of J.R.R. Tolkien’s ‘Lord of the Rings.’
Question: Who’s your favorite actor and actress? You are definitely mine! 🙂
Majandra Delfino: Okay, actor would be Johnny Depp and Edward Norton. And then actress would be… wow, there are so many… I guess Helena Bonham Carter. So, basically ‘Fight Club’ was the best situation for me!
Question: If you could be on another show besides ‘Roswell,’ what would it be and why?
Majandra Delfino: It would probably be ‘Sex and the City,’ because I think it’s brilliant!
Question: What was your favorite episode of ‘Roswell’?
Majandra Delfino: My favorite scene on ‘Roswell’ was probably when Max sees Liz in the pilot with the fireworks, and they played Dave Matthews’ “Crash,” and all of his problems go away when he sees her. That would be it.
Question: What are the writers’ plans for Howie D? Rumor has it that he will be your interest. Does that carry any weight at all?
Majandra Delfino: I don’t think so at all. 🙂
Question: Do you think you will be at the August 5th FanForum party?
Majandra Delfino: Just maybe. 🙂
Question: Hey, Majandra. All of us Michael and Maria lovers are wondering, will they be together next season?
Majandra Delfino: If you guys want that, you can write in and let them know, but I have NO control over the story. But let’s hope so. 🙂
Question: What are some of your future plans?
Majandra Delfino: I just finished a film called ‘Traffic’ directed by Steven Soderbergh, and it’s the new Michael Douglas, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Dennis Quaid and Topher Grace picture.
Question: What inspired you to write “Bruises”?
Majandra Delfino: “Bruises” is all the things you’re feeling in the state of desperation involving a relationship. And how no matter what you do, it’s one of those “sticks and stones may break my bones” kind of songs.
Question: Do you check out the sites devoted to you and ‘Roswell’?
Majandra Delfino: A couple of times. But, a lot of times I’ve clicked on to them and the person has written that they want to follow one of the guys on the show. It’s hard when you’re a female on the show, when you don’t have the same kind of screaming fans that all the boys do. So it’s hard to know exactly how many fans you really do have.
Question: Will you be having an official Majandra site up soon?
Majandra Delfino: Yes. I’m going to try. 🙂
Question: What’s your favorite movie?
Majandra Delfino: ‘The Last Unicorn,’ ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas’ and ‘Legend.’
Question: You were born in Argentina — how did you get to or end up in the states?
Majandra Delfino: I was born in Caracas, Venezuela. I am NOT Argentinean! And I moved the US when I was three, with my mother and sister.
Question: Can you name some of the people that you look up to, inspired you?
Majandra Delfino: Inspire me? I would say… my mom. That’s really the only one.
Question: If you could write one episode, what would you have happen?
Majandra Delfino: I would have Jordan Catalano fall madly in love with Maria and hold her hand walking down the hallway of West Roswell High.
Question: Are there any charities you donate to?
Majandra Delfino: No. There is the Kidney Foundation in Miami. But nothing locally here in LA.
Question: Can you give a little hint on what’s gonna happen next season? (Pretty please with sugar and sprinkles and chocolate and all the other sweet toppings on top.) =)
Majandra Delfino: I have no idea. I haven’t even started working yet. I don’t even know who is and isn’t coming back. We haven’t done anything yet.
TV Guide Online: Thanks, Majandra! See you Saturday night on the ALMA Awards!
Majandra Delfino: Thank you! It was a lovely, lovely, lovely conversation. 🙂 ::BIG KISS::
