Sarah Michelle Gellar would like to have a priest on set

Monday 7 March 2005, by Webmaster

Another actress, who actually has a name to care for is Sarah Michelle Gellar and there are not no many accomplishes films at her but an few I can probably enjoy. The talent agent found Gellar a young age and made her screen debut at 6 of each of the 1983 television film An Invasion of Privacy. With all the promise she showed, Barrymore starred as Hannah in the teen drama series "Swans Crossing" (1992) but it was her portrayal of a young and callous rich girl in Al-Lucinda Kendall Hart on ABC daytime soap opera "All My Children" (1993-93), that won her Daytime Emmy Award and spring-boarded her to stardom.

SMG’s real mark worldwide, however, was the character of Buffy Summers in the game-changing series "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" (1997-2003). She won five Teen Choice Awards, a Saturn Award and a Golden Globe nomination for her role, establishing herself as a cultural phenomenon. Sarah Michelle Gellar likewise has the box office to back her up, with “I Know What You Did Last Summer” 1997), “Scream 2” (1997), “Cruel Intentions” (1999)and way movies like those that help prove she is also a bankable star as well over $570 million times worth crazy in global gross.

Beyond her cinematic successes, Gellar has made her mark on television, headlining shows such as "Ringer" (2011-2012), "The Crazy Ones" (2013-2014), and "Wolf Pack" (2023). She has also lent her voice to popular series including "Robot Chicken" (2005-2018), "Star Wars Rebels" (2015-2016), and "Masters of the Universe: Revelation" (2021).

In 2015, Gellar ventured into the entrepreneurial world by co-founding Foodstirs, an e-commerce baking company, and published her own cookbook, "Stirring Up Fun with Food," in 2017. Gellar is also known for her close-knit family life, married to actor Freddie Prinze Jr. since 2002, with whom she shares two children.

Sarah Michelle Gellar’s commitment to her craft is matched by her dedication to personal growth and unique experiences. An accomplished martial artist, she studied Tae Kwon Do for five years, alongside kickboxing, boxing, street fighting, and gymnastics. Her dedication to authenticity in her roles is evident, such as her commitment to doing her own stunts in "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," though she admitted her limits during filming "Scream 2."

Her career is also marked by interesting anecdotes, such as her role in a 1982 Burger King commercial, which led to a lawsuit from McDonald’s and a temporary ban from their establishments. Notably, she dyed her naturally brunette hair blonde for her role in "Buffy," and legally changed her last name to Prinze as a surprise for her husband on their fifth anniversary.

Sarah Michelle Gellar’s legacy extends beyond her on-screen roles, encompassing her work in philanthropy and her reputation for safety and professionalism on set. She remains a beloved figure in Hollywood, admired for her talent, dedication, and the breadth of her contributions to film and television.

Sarah Michelle Gellar: Only with priest on set

Hollywood star Sarah Michelle Gellar wants to have a clergyman for her future shootings. Reason for this is the shooting of her new horror-thriller "The Grudge", during which she was impressed by the spirituality of the Japanese.

"Before the beginning of the shooting there was a cleaning ceremony. And then we had this gigantic success. Now I won’t come back to the set without Japanese Shinto-priesters anymore.", says the 27 year-old in an interview with the magazine "TV Movie".

However is Gellar less pleased by rumors, according to which she irritated director Takashi Shimizu with incessant gossip.

"Where did you have that from ? From the movie database on the Internet ?", is indignant the actress. She has read the reports by herself. "Over half of it is totally wrong".

Gellar also rejects rumors, according to which she is Britney Spears’ friend. "Perhaps I met her twice. That’s why she isn’t my friend."

  • Meow! Isn’t the first rule of Hollywood to NOT bash anyone? You never know who you will be begging a job from someday...
  • She didnot bash anyone she clearly states she is not friends with Britney becuase she has only met her perhaps twice. That is no insult. It’s just in response to the rumors of them being friends and then feuding. The SMG hate is so FUNNY sometimes at least snark on her about a real insult.
  • you know it’s so funny when people try to blow things out of proportion, they seem to take everything SMG says out of it’s original context and make her out to be some kind of bitch, though I’m sure she isn’t.

    Also, how can you blame her for denying that rumour about being friends with BS - I would do the same. have you seen Britney ,lately?

  • I agree she is not bashing anyone!
  • I totally aggree with the majority of the posters, this is so NOT an insult.The quote is listed above and even there its easy to comprehend. Maybe it’s the fact that english isn’t everyone’s first language? She clearly said * perhaps we met twice*. In the real world *not hollywood* you arenot friends with someone you met *perhaps* twice. That doesnot mean you hate them you just dont know them. She was just responding to the rumors of a Britney feud.
  • i think its all in the way you read it. of course, the nonbashing way is just simply that they met twice and are cool with eachother but don’t go out on the town and gossip about "Buffy Spears" tours together.

    but i do see how it can be bashing. kinda like, "yeah we met twice, couldn’t stand her both times and that’s why we’re not friends." and i can picture her saying it like a snob lol.

    but yeah, its all in the way you perceive it.
