December 18 Big Kid Interview


Big shot singing dancing kiddo Justin Booper was in town for a song and dance.
Although I'm technically the 'Entertainment Reporter', the only thing I really ever do is eat food and mix drinks on the job. That's not an exaggeration, it's just my reality as a 5pm live reporter.

Live at Happy Hours, Candy factories, hot shot restaurants, and more Happy Hours.
It's a wonder I'm not a 200lb alcoholic.

So when one of the teen screamiest things to hit the music scene came popping into our DMA I just had to snag an interview.

Justin Booper is dreamy. I'm channeling my inner 15 year-old here. That's what I would have said when I was reading tiger beat and lip synching to N'Sync.
I would have also said he's the ultimate performer, and kinda like a kid prodigy. He's media savvy, cute, has great hair, and is a total performer.
All the makings for a pretty fudged up adulthood. You've seen the VH1 Specials on child stars...

Here's what. 4 of us in the room. My homeless-looking photographer, the Boopinator's I dunno- tour manager? pretty cute mid-20's guy with a rastafarrian looking beanie- the Boops, and I.

Wanna guess who looked like the pimple faced teen in the group?
In most any situation you can guarantee that a teen who's hormones are a ragin' will have more yeasty zits and blemishes than their adult counterpart.
Tonight, not so.

Sure, you'll see him in 2 years doing proactive commercials.
They'll have grabbed one rogue shot of him where if you squint you can make out the startings of a blemish.
His skin was clean as a baby's bottom.
My skin was struggling to hold onto it's stability- I'm on an upward swing- a recovery from a breakout earlier this week.

Fingers crossed and breaths held it'll hold up for me for at least a few solid days.
