Today, Ellen viewers got a real treat. House’s own Olivia Wilde was a guest on the show and she revealed some very interesting things about herself.
- For example, did you know that even though she is so thin, she has never lost an eating contest? In fact, she won one by eating 33 pancakes in 20 minutes. OMG!!! She’s a vegan, so the contests have to be non-animal products, but still…
- How about this: did you know that she’s married to an actual Italian prince? She’s a real-life, bonafide princess. Who knew?
- She was also in the step team when she was in high school and she demonstrated her step talent for the audience.
I love this interview! First of all, since I have actually talked to her before, I know that she’s a very warm and fun person. So it didn’t surprise me that she came across that way in this appearance. But her character, Thirteen is very different from who she really is. I know that House fans are mixed in their opineions of Thirteen, but remember that Olivia Wilde is not the character. She’s a very interesting person. Here’s the clip. You’ll see what I mean:
You’ve talked to her? I’m jealous.
I’ve been a fan of Miss Olivia Wilde for years — ever since her first guest star appearance on The OC as Alex Kelly. Needless to say, I was ecstatic when I saw the promo for 4×02, and when she made the cut for House’s team.
Though many people dislike Thirteen, you may find that Olivia Wilde is a very talented young actress and incredibly amazing person. There are other interviews that prove this as well — like the Chelsea Lately interview, and a few she’s shared with Jesse Spencer.
In fact, over the years, she has made it to the very top of my favorites list.
Anyhow, the interview was spectacular. Olivia, as usual, was as cute and funny as she usually is. I hope many of the Thirteen-haters can grow to love Olivia for the person she is, and not the character they’ve grown to hate.
:]
haha shes funny
princess pancake from now on 
The person has nothing to do with me. I only care about her as it relates to HOUSE and 13.
And I still want her to die!
That’s nothing against O.W., just her character on HOUSE. I hope you understand how I feel.
I understand how you feel.
She’s quite charming and very lovely. When I first found out she was joining the cast of House I was really pleased. I’m just not loving the character 13 and the way the story lines have developed surrounding her. I wish it was a little more balanced that’s all.
