Just some musings and electronic gatherings of an ink-stained wretch turned social media junkie. As JADAL says: No trees were destroyed in the sending of this organic message. I do concede, however, a significant number of electrons may have been inconvenienced.

Transforming For The Emmys with @uzoaduba
For more real moments from Uzo’s life on and off camera, follow @uzoaduba on Instagram. For more faces from the 2015 Emmys, follow @televisionacad and explore the #emmys hashtag.
For award shows like the Emmys, actress Uzo Aduba (@uzoaduba) dresses up as the most glamorous version of herself. She may look different from the character she is known for playing, Suzanne “Crazy Eyes” Warren on the Netflix show “Orange is the New Black,” but Uzo holds onto the character’s passionate spirit. “What I love about Suzanne is her honesty,” Uzo says. “She’s entirely herself, for better or worse, and stands inside her authenticity.” And that attitude is something the actress is also known for; Uzo’s intimate honesty on Instagram about her life has grown her a deeply engaged and dedicated fan base.
Ericca Fernandez (@ricofierce), an Australian artist and big-time fan, appreciates how close Uzo’s fans feel to her, and drew a “dedication piece” in Uzo’s honor. “I am mostly a portrait artist, so I am always drawn to people’s faces and their characters. I like to find something unique that stands out about them,” Ericca says. “Not only does Uzo have a gorgeous face, she seems to have a beautiful and down to earth personality, as well.”
