When I was coaching Leighton Meester I showed her several film clips, and this was the only one she found totally useless. Since she wasn't going to twirl tassels or do 80s rap or dress like a vampiress, that made sense. But it's one of my faves.

I wonder if Cassandra Fever will be appearing on The Search for the Next Elvira, Fox Network's upcoming reality show?
