Uh Huh Leisha!
Now put your hand down if you don't like Leisha Hailey's character Alice.
If we were all in one giant room right now, two things would be certain: 1. I would be hitting on you, and 2. Everyone's hand would still be in the air.
No matter what your opinion is of each episode's writing and/or direction, sexetera, there is one constant throughout: Leisha Hailey is always flippin' awesome. Whether she's making us spit out our Southern Comfort with her slapstick comedy, making us cry (did someone say Season 3? and where the heaven were the Emmy/Golden Globe Award nominations??), or making us wish we were a vampire limo driver when she gets all nekkid and shiz, she is always exciting to watch on screen.
For those of us who miss listening to Leisha behind a mic and geetar, we're in luck! You've certainly heard one of the hottest singles of this year, her band Uh Huh Her's "Say So." Finally, after all the build up, we're going to get a chance to see what else they've got to offer. Next Tuesday, July 24th, the band will release their debut EP. You can purchase the music on their website UhHuhHer.com. Go there right now to listen to 1 minute samples of the songs! Next spring, we're promised to get a full-length album from the band.
I'm listening to the songs right now on repeat, and I wanna put on my smoking jacket and light a candy cigarette. These are some sexy jams.
It would have been very easy for Leisha and her band mate Camila Grey to produce a mediocre record and coast on the popularity of the "L Word" for sales. But I'm starting to get the feeling that Leisha is a perfectionist. Cause as with her acting, there's nothing mediocre about what I've heard so far. I'm talking radio hits, mixed with what will probably become cult favorites. Baby making tracks and shoe shopping tracks and getting ready to go out to your favorite lezzy club tracks.
What's that Leisha? You say you want to come to Culver City and marry me and let me go on tour with you and iron your socks and drive the limo and then do it in the back seat with fake vampire teeth? Alright. If you *Say So.*
1. Wait, Arlan, it says if we were all in one giant room you would be hitting on me! That means you're bisexual! woo hoo! just kidding arlan. :-) I love The L Word though. Shane is my homogirl, as my shirt from you says. :) I can't wait for next season. Do you know if they are going to do those Susan G. Komen Foundation premiere parties again next season???
2. Leisha Hailey is hands down my favorite part of The L Word. I cannot live without her, even though I don't have Showtime and have to wait for the DVD release of the show every. single. year.
Oh, and even though I'm a guy and have no chance with her. Damn my penis.
I do not kid when I say I have a framed color photo of Leisha up in my bedroom. It's right behind my alarm clock, so she's the first and last thing I see every day.
Much love to Leisha. :)
3. You know your right about leisha on the show however early this year leisha and kate were here in park city utah and they were very shy not talkitive granted half of the questions were stupid like where is carmen and stuff but still and after the show they acted like they were too good to stick around and get pics or whatever for the FANS on top of that Ilene Chaiken was so freaking rude to people because they were asking about the sexuality of people on the show...Yes i get it that its personal but the women look up to these people as the voice that they do not have they want to find things in common with them and she was so nasty to people if they show was not so freaking good based on her i would get as many people that i could to not watch but alas it is a fucking great show grrr lol

5. Arlan, you are going to have to fight me to get Leisha as I plan to marry that woman. Although, we'll both have to fight her damn girlfriend for her first.
She is always the one person you cannot take your eyes off of in every single scene on the "L Word". She is funny in those stupid yogurt commercials and she is without a doubt the only reason to watch that atrocious indie film- "All Over Me".
My friend is a guestbian blogger on Our Chart and I keep asking her when she's going to meet Leisha and introduce us. (BTW, her name's Julia and her blogs are hysterical. Shameless plug.)

6. Wow, I am really excited for this album. Usually I don't listen to much pop/rock. Some call me a music elitist bitch, I say I'm a music composition major and I know good song writing. Sounds like this stuff has what it takes to be great stuff. Leisha couldn't get cooler.

7. You got to love Leisha and her character Alice from the L word. I know I do.

8. I LOVE LEISHA! Omg season 3 when Dana died and she slid to the floor out side the hospital room with the singing flower!! Ahhh I wanted to jump into the screen and give her a bear hug! Alice is surely the comedian of the group and without her witty remarks idk where the show would stand in my book... while some of the other characters throw a few curve balls in there from time to time alice keeps us on our toes never quite knowing what she is going to say next. I love Alice... big ups to Leisha she is doing her thing on the L Word and is definitely doing the music thing!

10. I absolutely adore Leisha.I went to the Uh Huh Her concert last night here in Houston and it was so awesome. The band autographed my cd and poster, so the experience was all good! I can't wait for the full-length Common Reaction!

11. Leisha Hailey is just simply fucking amazing. I've been a fan of hers since the Murmurs days. She's such a talented musician and actress and I'm glad she's FINALLY getting recognition in both of those fields equally it seems. As sad as Season 3 of the l word was, her acting and her getting into character was at a whole other level. CHEERS TO LEISHA!
