Subject: Some Gillian Anderson stuff..

Is anyone watching American Idol this year?
Last night they had their "Idol Gives back" charity show and during the Stayin' Alive video featuring a bunch of celebs lip synching and dancing to the song, GA makes a very brief appearance.

Also, this short article (sorry, I don't know the source). Not sure what to make of it but just because she is critical I think it's a leap on the writer's part to say she "regrets" the whole experience.
What do you think?

Anderson regrets X-Files years

Actress Gillian Anderson regrets spending nine years in popular TV series
The X-Files, admitting it was the money that kept her going.
The star says she "had no choice" but to sign for a long stint on the show,
although she has agreed to reprise the role of Agent Dana Scully in the sequel
of the film adaptation of the sci-fi series.
She says, "I couldn't get out of it. I didn't have a choice. Back then I was
all innocent and I thought, 'Wow! This sounds wonderful' but then when I
started, I realised I'd be in a Canadian wood working 16 hours a day for nine
months a year. And the reason I stayed so long was because the only way I could
get more money was to commit myself to doing it for another couple of
years."
Anderson compares the on-set atmosphere as a "disgusting microcosm", adding,
"To begin with it was alright, but gradually it all became incredibly gossipy
and incestuous."
