Introduction:
In the world of television, there are iconic characters that leave a lasting impression. One such character is Andre's Grandma from the popular Nickelodeon show Victorious, portrayed by the talented actress Andre's Grandma. Little did I know that my admiration for her work would lead to a delightful connection and unforgettable experiences.
Connecting with Andre's Grandma:
Through the wonders of Instagram, I found myself in contact with Marilyn Harris Smith, the actress behind Andre's beloved Grandma. It all began when I discovered that she was starting a podcast, where she would be sharing behind-the-scenes stories and experiences from her time filming Victorious and even before the show began. This exciting news drew me closer to her journey and created a platform (Instagram) for us to interact.
The Podcast Journey:
During Marilyn's captivating Instagram Live sessions, I had the honor of being the first live guest and became part of an exciting announcement. Marilyn announced the launch of her upcoming podcast, a treasure trove of anecdotes and insights not only for fans of "Andre's Grandma" but also for enthusiasts of the show Victorious itself. Assisted by Bennett Scheer, Marilyn's podcast producer, and with the involvement of her husband Percy, the podcast promises to feature special guests, including other actors from the show as well as those who have appeared in various other productions. Together, we delved into a wide range of topics, from my experiences at the German Comic Con to sharing stories about my autographed Jeannie Bottle and the Jeannie bottles I painted. Our conversation was also flavored with nostalgia as we reminisced about I Dream of Jeannie and delved deeper into the captivating world of Victorious.
A Memorable Anecdote:
During our live session, we delved into a memorable scene from Victorious involving Andre's Grandma and a mug of oatmeal. Marilyn graciously showcased her favorite mug, revealing that it currently held a serving of oatmeal. The lively banter and shared laughter made the experience truly delightful. Matt Bennett, who portrayed Robbie Shapiro on Victorious, even joined the live chat, adding another layer of excitement. I had the privilege of answering some of Matt Bennett's questions, creating a connection that transcended the screen.
Sharing the Experience:
After the Instagram Live session, I took to social media to share my incredible experience. Through an Instagram post and story, I recounted the engaging conversation, including a screenshot capturing the memorable moment. To my surprise and delight, both Marilyn Harris Smith and Matt Bennett acknowledged and appreciated my posts. Matt Bennett even went the extra mile by sharing some of my stories, showcasing his DJ parties where he spins music including from popular TV shows by Nickelodeon, Disney and more. Marilyn Harris Smith was a special guest 2 times at the parties by Matt Bennett where she reprised her role as Andre's Grandma LIVE for the party goers! It sure was an awesome experience for them all.
Supporting Marilyn's Journey:
Beyond our virtual encounters, I found a way to contribute to Marilyn's online presence. Utilizing my skills in photo restoration, I send her enhanced screenshots from her appearances and scenes in various shows and commercials. The restored photos add a touch of nostalgia and quality to her social media content. I deeply appreciate Marilyn's utilization of these images and value the genuine connection we have established.
Conclusion:
My journey alongside Marilyn Harris Smith, the talented actress who brought Andre's Grandma to life on Victorious, has been a delightful adventure. From engaging in her Instagram Live sessions and being a guest during her Live Instagram to exchanging laughter and insights, I have developed a profound respect for Marilyn and her work. The unexpected connection with Matt Bennett, who played Robbie Shapiro on the show, further enriched my experience. It is through these cherished encounters that I have come to appreciate the magic behind the scenes even more and the remarkable individuals who bring beloved characters to life.
Here I have the reel of the Instagram live:
