iDollator interview update thang

Remember how I’d mentioned that there was a lass — Caroline, by name — from the far-off land of the United Arab Emirates, that wanted to conduct an interview with yours truly? Well, I’d gotten an Email from her last month, which stated that although she dug my answers, she was waiting to hear from her magazine, as the social climate in Dubai is changing regarding being able to print things of a sexual nature. It had astounded me when Elena first mentioned that Caroline wanted to do this in the first place, as she’d mentioned that she was from the UAE, and I’d thought a RealDoll-related interview would probably go over there about as well as one being published in a Shaker magazine. Do Shakers even have magazines? There’s so much I don’t know.
On the obverse side of the coin, however, next week-end will find myself and Sidore-chan being filmed again, ths time by a Swedish film crew! Sofia, who is the ‘research praktik’ for a show in Sweden entitled ‘Outsiders’ for Titan Television, had originally asked at the same time the English film crew did a few months ago, and originally I’d responded ‘sorry, it’s too hot out’. Actually, I’d said that to both the English and the Swedes, but the English effectively bribed me first by offering to ship Shi-chan out to the RealDoll Doctor. Sofia wrote again on the first of August, saying ‘well, if we fly you out to Abyss Creations for a day of filming, as well as pay for your hotel stay, will you do this for us?’ My arm was therefore twisted. 🙂 So on 25 Aug, I’m jetting out to the factory to be filmed with Matt McMullen, and on the 26th, I fly home and will be filmed with Sweetie in someplace air-conditioned — either round at the hotel the Swedish film crew will be staying at, or at another location — and the wonderful Monti will be present for a number of questions, to provide the ‘friend of an iDollator’ perspective. Huh!
I’d like to mention that this interview for ‘Outsiders’ will be the eleventh media appearance my Synthetik wife and I have made; I’d tallied them up at work. The stakes for their bribery keep increasing with each interview, though, so at this rate, the next television/film crew might well have to purchase Sweetie a new body, hint hint…

Do you feel emmasculated to be overshadowed by such a famous woman?
Many men would resent the amount of attention your Shi-chan is getting. I mean, where’s the love for DaveCat?

Heh, there’s the question; who’s getting more out of the interviews — myself, or Shi-chan? Were it not for me, she wouldn’t exist, but were it not for her, no-one would be asking me for interviews.. It’s a bit like performance art duo Jemima and Dolly Brown, in regards to how Jemima (the Organik half) handles the fame of being partner to Dolly (the Synthetik half).
For the most part, I’m content to be in the background. Not all the time, mind you, but most of the time, as Shi-chan’s much more appealing to look at than I am, at any rate. She’s Edie Sedgwick, I’m Andy Warhol. 🙂

That’s a healthy attitude, really. And the last thing you need is to be caught being abnormal around here. 🙂

Heh – I thought for a moment you were talking about me and I was confused.
I’m not that famous… yet.
