[18:04] [Kelly]: Jayne asks: Have you always wanted to act? If not, what was your childhood dream for the future?

[18:05] [Drew]: When I was a kid, all I ever wanted to do was be the center of attention

[18:05] [Drew]: so . .

[18:05] [Drew]: I would always remember watching a movie and saying, "Oh I want to do that!"

[18:06] [Drew]: not acting but be the person they were actually portraying

[18:06] *** Jim sets mode: +v Josie

[18:06] [Josie]: Hello Drew

[18:06] [Josie]: Josie asks: I want to be an actor when I grow up and be just like you, what advice would you give to me and any other inspiring actors or actresses? [18:06] [Drew]: it progressed into acting at a very young age

[18:06] *** Jim sets mode: -v Josie

[18:06] [Drew]: have strong self-confidence because people will reject you many times

[18:07] [Drew]: I heard "no" a thousand times before I heard one "yes"

[18:07] [Kelly]: and you’re living proof that it works out if you never give up.

[18:07] [Drew]: if you have passion about anything, pursue it with all of your heart

[18:08] [Drew]: thanks!

[18:08] [Kelly]: you’re welcome!

[18:08] [Kelly]: next question

[18:08] [Kelly]: Barb asks: What was the first thing you bought with your first paycheck as an actor?

[18:09] [Drew]: The first thing I bought was a plasma television that hangs on my wall

[18:09] [Drew]:

[18:09] *** Jim sets mode: +v Sandra

[18:09] [Kelly]: i’m so jealous!

[18:09] [Kelly]: next question brought to you by sandra

[18:09] [Drew]: Haha

[18:09] [Drew]: hello sandra!

[18:10] [Sandra]: Sandra asks: Who inspired you to go into the acting business. And why?

[18:11] [Drew]: A number of actors and actresses inspired me ranging from Ed Norton, Daniel Day Lewis, Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp, Angelina Jolie, Kate Blanchette

[18:11] [Kelly]: they all have unique qualities and talents. quite a great list of individuals.

[18:12] [Kelly]: next question.

[18:12] [Kelly]: Tori asks: You said in an interview that there are directors you’d love to work with, which ones?

[18:13] [Drew]: David Fincher, Tony Scott, Jim Sheridan, Brian Singer

[18:14] [Kelly]: thanks Drew! we’ll keep them coming.

[18:14] [Drew]: Christopher Nolan

[18:14] [Drew]: Michel Gondry

[18:15] [ Jim ] Helie asks: Many of your projects have been the same theme (example: vampires/witchcraft). Do you choose these roles because it’s something that interests you?

[18:15] [Drew]: Luc Besson and Daryn Arronofsky

[18:15] [Drew]: sorry this question really excites me

[18:16] [Drew]: Ya - a job!

[18:16] [Drew]: Actually in all seriousness it is just a coincidence

[18:16] [Drew]: overall I am attracted to things that challenge me

[18:17] *** Jim sets mode: +v Stephanie

[18:17] [Stephanie] ah

[18:17] [Stephanie] Judging by all the work you’ve done this past year, how do you think your acting has changed from the first time you stepped on the Charmed set until the last day of shooting for the finale?

[18:17] *** Jim sets mode: -v Stephanie

[18:18] [Drew]: confidence, relaxation - a sense of peacefulness. My acting has improved by leaps and bounds - stringing together consistently more real moments

[18:19] [Kelly]: Robert asks: What aspect of Hollywood, that you’ve experienced, do you dislike the most?

[18:19] [Kelly]: we’ve watched you transform into such an amazing character over the season.

[18:19] [Drew]: everyone doing anything in their power to get to the top no matter what

[18:20] [Drew]: back-stabbing and lying etc. . .

[18:21] [Kelly]: Agnes asks: Is there any memorable bad experience you’ve had when filming movies?

[18:22] [Drew]: Yes . .

[18:22] [Drew]: I remember when I was shooting "Close Call" they were so disorganized - everyone was running around like a chicken with their head cut off

[18:23] [Drew]: no trailers, the lounge for the actors was a closed store in the mall with trash on the ground

[18:23] *** Jim sets mode: +v Paola

[18:23] [ Paola _ _ _ __02]: hi Drew

[18:23] [ Paola _ _ _ __02]: Paola asks: You are young, goodlooking, sexy and famous. How do you do to keep your feet on the ground? and how important is fame for you?

[18:23] *** Jim sets mode: -v Paola

[18:23] [Drew]: and for craft service they gave us $5 to go to the food court

_[18:24] [Drew]: My family and friends ground me especially my mom always reminding me that I am not working

_[18:24] [Drew]: how important is fame? - it is icing on the cake. If I do good work, at the end of the day that is the only thing that brings a big smile to my face

[18:25] [Kelly]: an amazing answer Drew!

[18:25] [Kelly]: next question.

[18:26] [ Jim ] Talya asks: Did you still have a somewhat normal teenage life when you started modeling? Or did it change completely?

[18:26] [Drew]: No nothing really changed because I kept it to myself

[18:26] [Drew]: I didn’t go around telling people what I was doing

[18:27] [Drew]: I toned it down because people were mean

[18:28] [ Jim ] next

[18:28] [ Jim ] Erin asks: Do you ever go back and look at your movies you have done, or TV shows like Charmed and think: "Wow, I was great there!" or "I should have done that a little better?"

[18:29] [Drew]: I have a tendency to avoid going back and looking at old films because I always think I could have done better

[18:29] [Kelly]: you know what they say, everyone is their own worst critic.

[18:29] *** Jim sets mode: +v Kristine

[18:29] [ Jim ] Next question by Kristina

[18:31] [ Jim ] No response

[18:31] *** Jim sets mode: -v Kristine

[18:31] [ Jim ] Kristina asks: What’s it like to be referred to as "the next BIG thing"? Also, what’s it like to have photographers take your picture?

[18:31] [Drew]: Photographers taking my picture is still insane and ridiculous

[18:32] [Drew]: and regards to "the next big thing" I wouldn’t even know where to begin in order to answer that question

[18:32] [Drew]: amazing, I guess if in fact it is true

[18:33] [Kelly]: we’re all looking forward to seeing what you come up with next.

[18:33] [Kelly]: Christy asks: How do you feel about your fan base being so broad? Some are teenagers, and others, like me, are over 30.

[18:33] [Drew]: hello christy

[18:34] [Drew]: It is amazing. . . I glad I can span to all ages

[18:35] [Kelly]: we’re quite a broad fan base, that’s for sure!

[18:35] [Drew]: To be able to effect so many people in different stages of life means the world to me

[18:35] [Drew]: thanks

[18:35] [Kelly]: Amelia asks: How do you get into character before a scene? Was it sometimes hard to switch from Drew to Chris Perry on some days, or did it come naturally because you’re so used to the character?

[18:36] [Drew]: At first it was more difficult, but towards the end of the season, it was much easier to flip that light switch on and off

[18:36] [Drew]: and on a side note . . .

[18:36] [Drew]: there was a lot of Drew in Chris

[18:37] _07[_ Tara ]: Hey Drew...Out of all the movies in the world, what role would you have loved to play?

[18:37] [Drew]: tough question

[18:37] [Drew]: tough question!

[18:37] [Drew]: let me think . . .

[18:38] [Drew]: I wish I had my DVD collection in front of me

[18:39] [Drew]: I guess, off the bat, the role would be someone who goes through a profound experience and comes out completely changed on the other side, someone who has learned and takes the audience on a journey with them

[18:39] [Drew]: perfect example: Edward Norton - American History X

[18:40] [Kelly]: something that people can relate to, that would be a great role.

[18:41] _07[_ Jaimee ]: What do you like to do for fun, Drew? What are your other passions? besides what we know from your bio?

[18:41] [Drew]: I love reading

[18:41] [Drew]: I am reading this amazing book right now called "A Million Little Pieces" by James Frey

[18:41] [Drew]: I go to the movies almost everyday

[18:41] [Drew]: I run 3.5 miles every morning

[18:42] [Drew]: and I love being with friends

[18:42] [ Jim ] Next question by Robert

[18:42] *** Jim sets mode: +v Robert

[18:42] [ Robert ] hey, how has DrewFullerFan.Com, DrewFullerForum.Com and now DrewFuller Chat changed your perspective regarding your fanbase?

[18:42] *** Jim sets mode: -v Robert

[18:43] [Drew]: It gave me perspective, I had no idea this many people liked what I was doing or had an opinion about my facial hair

[18:43] [Drew]: WHICH IS NOW SHAVED BY THE WAY

[18:43] [Kelly]: Mr. Scruffy has been tossed around. tell them the good news yup!

[18:43] [Kelly]: haha

[18:43] [Drew]: but will be grown back by tomorrow

[18:44] [Kelly]: Carrie asks: What has been your strangest fan encounter?

[18:45] [Drew]: I have been very fortunate - I have had no strange encountes - my fans are awesome

[18:45] [Kelly]: that’s good to hear!

[18:45] [Kelly]: Christy asks: Do you consider yourself an approachable person?

[18:45] [Drew]: Of course - very!

[18:46] [Kelly]: Vera asks: How did you feel when you were approached by a fan for the first time?

[18:46] [Drew]: I was shocked and probably more nervous than the fan

[18:46] [ Jim ] Next question by Carmi

[18:46] [Drew]: it was a boy named Zev in San Francisco

[18:47] [Kelly]: do you remember what happened?

[18:47] [Kelly]: how did he react?

[18:47] [Drew]: I still have the pen I signed the autograph with

[18:47] [Drew]: he was excited

[18:47] [Drew]: and he took me to meet his family, I was at restaurant

[18:47] [Kelly]: i bet! i think i speak for everyone that we would all be.

[18:48] *** Jim sets mode: +v Carmi

[18:48] *** Jim sets mode: -v Carmi

[18:48] [Drew]: angry and frustrated

[18:48] [Drew]: when I am not working

[18:48] [Drew]: but it doesn’t last for very long

[18:49] [Kelly]: we all have our moments and stressing out happens to the best of us.

[18:49] [Kelly]: Heather asks: Reading books is listed on the DFF site as one of your interests. What was the last book you read all the way through? Did you enjoy it? Do you ever stop reading a book before you finish it?

[18:50] [Drew]: No, I never stop reading a book before I finish it

[18:51] [Drew]: The last book I read was the "Rule Of Four" by Dustin Thomason and Ian Caldwell

[18:51] [Kelly]: reading a good book gets so addicting doesn’t it? it’s hard to think about anything else.

[18:51] [Drew]: that is so true

[18:52] [Kelly]: on that note, the other type of entertainment.

[18:52] [Kelly]: Yora asks: What cartoons do you like to watch?

[18:52] [Drew]: I don’t really watch tv but when I do, the Simpsons is always good for a laugh

[18:53] [Drew]: Shrek 2 was brilliant by the way!

[18:53] [Kelly]: i heard that’s done very good in the box office. a movie everyone can enjoy.

[18:54] [Kelly]: Rinoa asks: Do you play any video games? If so, which games are your favorites?

[19:03] [Kelly]: Claudia asks: Are you going to be back next season on Charmed?

[19:03] [Kelly]: you know it was coming....

[19:03] [ Jim ] and there it was...

[19:04] [Drew]: Unfortunately, due to the fact that I gave my word to keep it a secret until the season premiere, I cannot answer that question

[19:05] [Kelly]: maria is on deck now!

[19:05] *** Jim sets mode: +v Maria

[19:05] [ Maria ]: Hi! What do you like most about your Charmed character Chris Perry, and why?

[19:05] *** Jim sets mode: -v Maria

[19:06] [Drew]: that he is mischevious and he is always starting trouble

[19:07] [Kelly]: i think in the very end we finally figured why he did the things he did.

[19:08] [Drew]: good!

[19:08] [Kelly]: definitely one of the most interesting characters Charmed has ever brought onto the show!

[19:08] [Kelly]: speaking of Charmed.....

[19:08] [Kelly]: Barb asks: Chris appeared to be Charmed’s "piņata." How many times did you go home with bumps and/or bruises?

[19:09] [Drew]: I went home many times with bruises but the action scenes were sometimes the most fun

[19:09] [Kelly]: did you like to do lots of the stunts on your own?

[19:09] [Drew]: I did 98% of my own stunts - it is so much fun

[19:10] [Kelly]: yes, the action scenes with you and brian krause were nicely done.

[19:10] [Kelly]: moving on, tammy on deck now!

[19:10] *** Jim sets mode: +v Tammy

[19:10] [ Tammy ] Hi Drew. For starters I am a huge fan like everyone else here. What was the strangest or most akward thing/scene that you ever had to do on Charmed and what was your favorite scene to do?

[19:10] *** Jim sets mode: -v Tammy

[19:10] [Drew]: thanks to our stunt coordinator Noon Orasati

[19:12] [Drew]: the most awkward, the scene that sticks out as the worst in my mind was the scene with Gith in a cave and it was so uninspiring and miserable

[19:13] [Drew]: my favorites were any scenes where I was connecting with someone else specifically guest stars like my grandpa and holly - all scenes in the spider demon

[19:13] [Kelly]: spin city is definitely one of our favorites!

[19:14] [Kelly]: Faith asks: Are the clothes that you wore on Charmed chosen by wardrobe, or did you get to choose them?

[19:14] [ Jim ] your reaction to the waiter in the restaurant is legendary

[19:14] [Kelly]: oh yes, one of our favorite quotes

[19:15] [Kelly]: what’s that. meat? anyway, on to the next question!

[19:15] [Drew]: wardrobe and I became very close very quickly because they knew I had so much passion for fashion

[19:15] [Drew]: so I worked hand in hand with them in picking my clothes that I would wear normally for the most part

[19:15] [Drew]: for the most part

[19:15] [Kelly]: lots of us love those blue shoes you wore.

[19:16] [Kelly]: gotta throw that out there.

[19:16] [ Jim ] in Witchstock yes

[19:16] *** Jim sets mode: +v Morgelyn

[19:16] [ Morgelyn _] Hi Drew. As ’the next generation of Halliwell magic’, if you and Wes Ramsey were offered the chance to take over from the girls as the main characters on Charmed, would you like to, and would you be interested in getting into the production side like Alyssa and Holly have?

[19:16] *** Jim sets mode: -v Morgelyn

[19:17] [Drew]: absolutely!

[19:17] [Drew]: the problem with staying on a show like Charmed is you have a tendency to get type - cast and pigeonhold which is against everything I want out of character

[19:18] [Kelly]: that’s understandable, a variety of different roles allows you to grow even more as an actor.

[19:18] [Drew]: exactly

[19:18] [Kelly]: so, on to a more comedic note.

[19:18] [Kelly]: Pierson asks: What song gets you dancing in the car?

[19:19] [Drew]: a lot of hip hop

[19:19] [Drew]: and 80’s pop

[19:20] [Kelly]: what’s in your cd player right this moment?

[19:20] [Drew]: Pink Floyd, Air, Flaming Lips, Jay Z

[19:21] [Kelly]: katie is up on deck next!

[19:21] *** Jim sets mode: +v Katie

[19:21] [ Katie ]: Hey Drew! What is a normal day on the set of charmed like in terms of things that happen and being with the rest of the shows amazing cast? It looks like it would be so much fun and looks like you guys are all very comfortable around each other!

[19:21] *** Jim sets mode: -v Katie

[19:22] [Drew]: you get there 6 am, everyone except Alyssa is a tad bit grumpy including me, have breakfast, get make- up and hair done, go to rehearsal

[19:22] [Drew]: go back to your trailer change and wait for shooting to begin

[19:23] [Kelly]: how long is a typical day of filming?

[19:23] [Drew]: once we are on set anything can happen, sometimes it is serious and sometimes it is fun, but it is life

[19:23] [Drew]: we laugh a ton

[19:23] [Kelly]: it makes the day fly by when you’re having fun with it.

_[19:24] [Drew]: it really does

[19:24] [Kelly]: it must be exciting to work with such an amazing group.

[19:24] [Kelly]: Abby was sadly unable to attend the chat, but we have offered to ask a question on her behalf.

[19:24] [Drew]: ok

[19:24] [Kelly]: Abby asks: What sort of television shows do you like to watch? Would the Charmed storylines interest you if you were flipping through stations?

[19:24] [Kelly]: we bring up tv again, i apologize!

[19:25] [Kelly]: i know you’d rather be reading a good book

[19:25] [Drew]: my favorite show on tv is nip/tuck followed by sopranos, the office and curb your enthusiasm, and the OC

[19:25] [Drew]: no, I love TV!

[19:25] [Drew]: especially those shows

[19:25] [Kelly]: lots of us love the o.c!

[19:26] [ Jim ] including you

[19:26] [Kelly]: do you think you’ll ever make another appearance as ’norland’ on the o.c?

[19:26] [Drew]: I doubt it

[19:27] [Kelly]: Melissa asks: Who are your favorite actors and actresses?

[19:27] [Drew]: if I go back, I will go back as another character because no one will remember me as Norland

[19:27] [Kelly]: i don’t think anyone caught your name either except maybe a few of us anyway.

[19:28] [Drew]: ya

[19:29] [Kelly]: Melissa asks: Who are your favorite actors and actresses?

[19:30] [Drew]: See above!

[19:30] [Kelly]: of course! sorry about the repeats

[19:30] [Kelly]: we all watched you kick some butt on black sash....

[19:30] [Kelly]: Annabelle asks: Do you do any martial arts? If you do, what kind?

[19:31] [Drew]: No, not at all. I do pray and meditate, which is a big part of martial arts.

[19:31] [Kelly]: ashley is up next.

[19:31] [ Ashley ]: Hey Drew! I was wondering what type of movie would you like to do comedy, drama, action or another kind?

[19:33] [Drew]: I want to do it all, I really do. They all keep me stimulated. I’ve done drama; I would love to do comedy and a "period piece." As long as I keep myself guessing, and everyone else, I’m happy.

[19:33] [Kelly]: any plan on doing any additional music videos?

[19:34] [Drew]: Definitely not. That was a transition for me until I did film and TV.

[19:35] [Kelly]: Vera asks: Do you like browsing/surfing through the internet, or are you the kind of person who just goes online when absolutely necessary? Are you a fan of high technology in general?

[19:36] [Drew]: I’m on the internet at least an hour every day. I love technology; I keep my eye out for anything that’s new and interesting.

[19:36] [ Jim ] is your interest Mac-related?

[19:36] [ Jim ] or general?

[19:36] [Drew]: Mac-related, for sure.

[19:37] [ Jim ] how very nice

_[19:37] [Kelly]: what are some of your favorite web sites?

_[19:38] [Drew]: Drudge Report is a must. Followed by ESPN, IMDB, WireImage, and of course DFF.com! For all my latest soccer info, I go to Beckham Magazine.com

[19:39] [Kelly]: how sweet.

[19:39] [Kelly]: yup imdb.com is a must. lots of great info.

[19:39] [ Jim ] indeed, I agree

[19:39] [ Jim ] any particular pages on the IMDb?

[19:39] [ Jim ]

[19:40] [Drew]: Not really. Whatever movie I’m obssessed with at any given moment. I’ll read about everything. It’s a very well-rounded site. It’s the industry favorite and a good thing to check everyday.

[19:41] [ Jim ] and your own page I presume

[19:41] [ Jim ] haha never mind me

[19:53] [Drew]: My review of it is ongoing. I go back and forth reading and re-reading.

[19:53] [Kelly]: it’ll take you quite some time, it got quite heavy!

[19:53] [Drew]: There are some amazing artists in there.

[19:54] [ Jim ] there sure are

[19:54] [Kelly]: again, i want to thank your mom for helping me get it to you safely. she’s definitely a sweetie.

[19:54] [Kelly]: Tori asks: Do you have any other nationalities in your blood?

[19:55] [Drew]: I’m Scottish, Russian and English.

[19:55] [Kelly]: stace is up on deck next!

[19:55] *** Jim sets mode: +v Stace

[19:55] [ Stace ] Hey Drew (and sexy Mr Mole of course!) OK, if disaster struck and you could only save 3 items from your home, what would they be?

[19:55] *** Jim sets mode: -v Stace

[19:57] [Drew]: I’m thinking here. . . First and foremost is a childhood present I’ve had with me forever. Next would be my computer. Followed by my grand piano.

[19:57] [ Jim ] Stace here actually created a group on the Forum for your mole, so that all the people who love it too could join and chat about it

[19:58] [Kelly]: *laughs* we went there already

[19:58] [Kelly]: i stole that line from you Drew....

[19:58] [ Jim ] indeed we did

[19:58] [ Jim ] which is a very good line for that matter

[19:59] [ Tara ] Drew, what is your childhood present if i may ask?

[19:59] [Drew]: I can’t answer that. Sorry.

[19:59] [Kelly]: we understand.

[19:59] [ Jim ] no problem

[20:00] [Kelly]: so, do you play any other musical instruments besides piano?

[20:00] [Drew]: No, unfortunately.

[20:00] [Kelly]: we’re down to 5 more questions!

[20:00] [Kelly]: you ready?

[20:00] [Drew]: Bring it on.

[20:00] [Kelly]: Michikooy asks: What are the characteristics of your dream girl?

[20:01] [Drew]: Loving, feisty, humorous, spontaneous, beautiful in every way.

[20:02] [Kelly]: lovely answer!

[20:02] [Kelly]: heather has the floor next!

[20:02] *** Jim sets mode: +v Heather

[20:02] [ Heather ] Hi Drew. Here’s a question you probably don’t get too often. Would you ever like to have children? I’m not asking any who or when questions, but being a mom, I wonder if you ever see yourself as a father?

[20:02] *** Jim sets mode: -v Heather

[20:03] [Drew]: Absolutely. I can’t wait for children. Maybe 3 would be nice.

[20:03] [Kelly]: Claudia asks: Do you wear contacts? At times your eyes seem green, and at others, they seem blue. If you don’t, what color would you wear if you did?

[20:04] [Drew]: I don’t wear contacts. They are always green, thanks to my father1

[20:04] [Kelly]: we love those beautiful green eyes!

[20:05] [Kelly]: thanks Drew’s father.

[20:07] [ Jim ] Next question

[20:07] [Kelly]: Sandy asks: How are you dealing with all you new found popularity? Is it all you really wanted?

[20:08] [Drew]: That’s such a tough question to answer. I’m ecstatic that people are responding to me as an actor, but I’m not letting it go to my head. It’s icing on the cake.

[20:09] [Kelly]: it is tough. we’re so proud of what you have accomplished and what you will accomplish.

[20:09] [Kelly]: we’re here for you!

[20:10] [ Jim ] There is a user here (simonetto) who would like to thank you, because you helped him get through his diabetes. He was the boy with the Music Video submission in the Fanbook. I am relaying this to you on his behalf.

[20:11] [Drew]: One of the great added benefits of being in this business is that sometimes you get to touch people in a very real way and inspire hope. That has to be the best part.

[20:12] [Kelly]: That’s it folks! Again, I would like to thank Drew Fuller for stopping by and chatting with us, and for all the fans who attended! Any closing comments Drew?

[20:12] [Kelly]: i hate to say this but.....

[20:12] [Kelly]: That’s it folks! Again, I would like to thank Drew Fuller for stopping by and chatting with us, and for all the fans who attended! Any closing comments Drew?

[20:14] [Drew]: I want to thank you all so much for making my job really, truly worth it. To be able to connect with so many people is fantastic. A huge thank you to Kelly and Jim for setting this up.

[20:14] [ Jim ] People are going frantic in the other room,the comments mostly extend to this for example:

[20:14] [ Jim ] We love you Drew! We promise to kidnap you at some point lol

[20:14] [ Jim ] Thank you Drew for coming here today!

[20:14] [Kelly]: thanks to you Drew! this would not have been possible without you.

[20:15] [Drew]: bye

[20:15] [Kelly]: i want to thank you for involving yourself with the DFF.com site.
