GET OFF MY BACK!

"What are you in right now?"
"I have 73 shows this month"
"What have you been auditioning for?"
"Are you SAG AFTRA yet?"

Blah. Blah. Blah.

This may come as a surprise to you. But, sometimes, I just want to be a regular person around regular people who talk about regular things. Like everyday life. I don't want to talk about my career and the auditions or shows or parts that I may or may not be getting.

Have you ever had functions after work that you dreaded going to because you knew that once you got to the function, everyone was just going to be TALKING ABOUT WORK? Like, excuse me Barb, I am on my second glass of wine, the last thing I want to do is talk about the emails that stressed me out this morning. Hell, Barb need to chill.

I get it, some folks are just genuinely wondering how everything is going with you. While on the other hand, those other folks just want to make sure they're staying one step ahead of you. Over the years, I've learned to tell the difference. I used to feel the need to bite off the heads of anyone that asked about my career.

Them: "Hey Brit! How's the acting coming along? Any luck yet?"
Me: "I'M FREAKING TRYIN! OK?!?!"

To those folks that genuinely wanted to know how everything was going: I am so sorry. I'm not myself when I'm hungry or when I'm stressing out about my career or when I'm trying to get my life together before I turn 30. My bad, I be tripping.

To those people that just want to be nosy: Why don't ya'll get ya'll some business? I promise, when I get this career popping, ya'll will be the first to know.

Lil ugly selves.

Family, the moral of the story is, Do you want me to ask you about your job every time I see you? "Any new stocks?" or "What cases are you solving now?" or "Any weird patients lately?" take a second and imagine that. I know, to the next person, we as artists seem to be living this fun, exciting, life on the edge, but to us, it's work. And this work doesn't come easy. Hell, that's IF it comes at all. (That's what she said. Sorry, I'm immature sometimes.) It's like this, if I've got something going on, I'll let you know. Don't worry.

That being said, get ready for AINTBRITFUNNY dot com in 2018! There are a lot of new things that I will be sharing with you with the re-launch of my site and I am so very excited about it all! Please stay tuned in with me! Ya'll know I got a regular job and branding yourself costs money. I'm going as fast as I can!




I love ya'll and appreciate your support. Don't second guess that. But dang, get off my back.

Glad we had this talk, let's hug it out!

-BRIT

PUT YOUR PHONE DOWN

"I need a break." I have to say, I have been finding the internet to be exceptionally entertaining and funny lately. I'm always cracking up at someone's Instagram post, a meme on Facebook, or some random footage from Twitter. But then, there's the negativity, which is extremely draining. Y'all, I don't care how bad things get in my life, please, please, please, don't let me get on the internet arguing with people that don't have a profile picture and misspelling stuff trying to send a subliminal message to my man. Just... take my phone... okay? Photo: Stephen Nitz When I broke up with my last boyfriend, which was in the year 1802, I purposely took a short break from social media. I was upset and when I'm upset, like most folk, I have a tendency to make that apparent. I'd found myself clapping back at someone on social media once before and I was like "Britney girl, what you doin'? Ain't that why you got a blog?...

BRIT AIN`T JUST FUNNY

"So are you scared to kiss?" Guys, I`m the most awkward actress when it comes to love scenes. I know what you're thinking. "You're a comedic actress, why are you doing love scenes?", the answer is, because I`m sexy and desirable and dudes want to kiss me on camera. No seriously, I do a lot more than comedy. Making people laugh just happens to be one of my strong points. I am always open to more serious roles and I can do a pretty good job, if I say so myself! I've played everything from an old lady, to an old man, to a sexy new girl on the job (that was back when I could still fit them Abercrombie jeans). Oh my gosh y'all, let me tell you about the first time I had to kiss a guy on stage. First of all, I had a crush on him to begin with. My teacher grouped us together on purpose and gave us a scene as husband and wife. Our first day of rehearsal he asks me, "So are you scared to kiss?" In the back of my head I'm like "Yeah, we ...

DON`T LET IT GET TO YA

"After today, I`m deleting my page" Man sit your ass down (dude off of Martin voice). We all know that you're gonna be right back here next week telling us about how you're letting go of the fake people in your life, your boyfriend getting on your nerves, these girls be tripping or posting that pointless selfie of you in the bed. I see that junkie room behind you. You could of at least folded that laundry first. Okay I get it. We all need a little social media detox every now and then. Even me. It seems like people have become numb to seeing horrible images of fighting, killing, violence and hate being displayed right in their news feeds. Its sickening. And then there`s the booty pictures. Yes, we all have some saved in our camera roll but that doesn't mean you have to post it. Mam, don't look at me like that, I know you took a booty picture and sent it to your husband while he was at the office. Y'all nasty. I often find myself desiring that detox as ...
