They no longer provide an advanced list of eligible performers. We have no idea who is eligible from each show.

ReplyMarch 27, 2022 at 8:32 am #1204878893I do believe that certain interviews are chosen and published from more that are conducted that are perhaps more conventional in choices. Who knows. Penelope obviously has passion. I still think Jessica is the popular choice.
We only interviewed the 5 people we published, and I never have any idea of what they are going to like or dislike.
