Lock me in with Sharon Gless. She can recite her new play, it sounds awesome.
“Jane Juska placed an ad in The New York Review of Books which said “Before I turn 67 – next March – I would like to have a lot of sex with a man I like. If you want to talk first, Trollope works for me”. She received 63 replies, from men aged between 32 and 84. A Round-Heeled Woman tells the real-life adventures of some of the encounters which resulted.”
I so need a good laugh, and there’s no better actress than Debbie Novotny/Christine Cagney/Colleen Rose/Madeline Westen.

It would be a pleasure to share and be locked in the same cell as Oprah Winfrey! She would only talk about herself and provide cool anecdotes of all the people she has met through the years. Plus I could make a millionaire “girlfriend” in the meantime!

Yetta Marmelstein
I would wanna be locked up all night long with the incredible Miss Barbra Streisand (ya know what I mean?). Hello gorgeous! I just simply got to: if someone takes a spill, it’s me and not you! Then she could go her way and I could go mine before the parade passes by. But if we had the chance to do it all again, tell me: would we? Could we? After all, people who need people are the luckiest people in the world!

I would love to be locked in a cell with Brent Corrigan, aka Sean Paul Lockhart.
He is the first adult star who I knew his name. He is hot and my type. More importantly I so appreciate his clarity of focus, talent and uniqueness to be able to make a name for himself as an actor, porn and non-porn. Whatever he does he stands out and his sincerity and depth as a person and as a performer comes across. I love creativity, diversity and uniqueness. I would drool for days before, during and after to be in the cell with him and get to have an authentic conversation with him.
B
It’s got to be James Franco. The attempt to understand how and what he’s think and try not to get confused would be a great challenge!

It’d have to be my partner, Manny…he’s the most understanding, honorable, loving person that I know, plus he’s kill me if it was anyone else… a long slow, miserable, very painful and well-thought out method of pay-back…it would really hurt.
