"Me Party" - Amy Adams and Miss Piggy,
scene from Nov. 2011 film The Muppets)

 Kicking-off the show, that was the self-nurturing song "Me Party"

 performed by me and my friend Miss Piggy. Hi!  I'm Mary...


the character played by actress Amy Adams...


 in the 2011 musical comedy film The Muppets.


 I'm an elementary school teacher...


a very capable mechanic... 


and longtime girlfriend of Gary...

who is a tremendous fan of the Muppets and human brother of Muppet Walter.


Together we travel to LA to reunite the Muppets for one last show

after a villain threatens to tear down their beloved Muppet Theater.


Critics call our Muppets movie colorful, cheerful


 and simply fun - a winning film for all ages.

Hi and welcome to your first

 A.A. MEETING 

here at the Shady's Place clubhouse.

acronym for Altered Attitudes and Attitude Adjustment

You're getting warmer, because in this series, A.A. stands for Amy Adams,
a great actress and recent inductee into the Shady's Place Hall of Fame

Precious few are picked for this honor, and Amy, with many fine
performances and memorable character portrayals to her credit


in a distinguished career that started in the 1990s and is still
going strong today, was a shoo-in, a first round draft pick.


Amy in Feb. 2019


This series introduces you to Amy's characters and movies.


Wow, what a difference a script makes!  


Hi y'all. Welcome in for a heapin' helpin of Texas style hospitality!


I'm the A.A. character Kate, a gold digger playing house
with my sugar daddy... a rich married man.


 My ambition in life is to diddle with his family jewels long enough
to make it into his will and get my hands on his billions. In the
meantime, we're makin' sparks fly in our-- "Love Shack!'


"Love Shack" - B-52's cover by Mojo (Feb. 2023)



The action unfolds in the 2002 romantic comedy Serving Sara
starring Chandler Bing from Friends and Vanessa Kensington
from Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery.

SCROLL DOWN AND WATCH ME!


Here she comes, that little town flirt 


 You're falling for her and your gonna get hurt

Yeah, I know it's so hard to resist
The temptation of her tender red lips


But you can get hurt, hur-hur-hurt
Yeah, you can get hur-hur-hur-hur-hurt 


Foolin' around with that little town flirt

(OKAY, STOP THE SONG NOW.)
   

Hello, I'm the A.A. character Lois Lane...

a reporter for the Daily Planet and the love interest for Clark Kent.


  (SPOILER ALERT!)
Clark turns out to be Superman! 


Let me tell you, girlfriend, you best believe that man is-- "Perfection!"


"Perfection" - Dannii Minogue And Soul Seekerz
(Nov. & Dec. 2005/Jan. 2006, highest chart position
#1 UK Upfront Club/#5 UK Dance/samples Vicki Sue Robinson's
disco hit "Turn The Beat Around (Love To Hear Percussions")

Clark aka Superman and I are the stars of four movies...


beginning with Man Of Steel (2013).


Our next appearance was in Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice (2016).


Then came Justice League (2017)

and finally Zach Snyder's Justice League (2021),
the director's cut of the 2017 movie.

That's a whole lotta work for Superman...
saving his city, saving planet Earth and saving me.


I don't spit into the wind or mess around with Jim. I don't pull the mask off
that old lone ranger... but I tug on Superman's cape... and he be lovin' it.


Simply put: I am a magnet... and he is steel.
