My Soapstar Life
Nicky Whelan
What's the best showbiz party you've ever been to?
I went to a bash at the Playboy Mansion in Hollywood a few years ago. They don't get much better than that! And it's exactly how you think it'll be inside - everyone's walking around half naked!
When was the strangest time you've been recognised?
A limousine full of schoolkids drove past me once, and they were all hanging out of the window shouting, "Pepper". It was just so embarrassing.
What's the best freebie you've ever bagged?
A cool trip to Madame Tussauds for an inside soap photo shoot, of course! Like everyone else, I love anything free.
When was the last time you were treated like a star?
Probably when i was in LA a couple of weeks ago. I always get treated well there. The clubs and parties and everything are VIPs only. My friends and I had a driver to take us around, too, so we had the best time.
Who's the nicest celebrity you've ever met?
I recently sat next to the actress Sandra Bullock ata hockey game. I'm such a fan of hers, so I was glad that she turned out to be absolutely lovely. We had a really nice chat, and she even gave me a hug when she left.
Have you ever been star-struck?
Definitely. Matt Dillon, the Hollywood actor, invited me to his table for a glass of wine one night, and I was so in awe of him. I love his 90s movie Singles, so I couldn't even talk when he spoke to me!
