Here’s the long and the short of it: I sent a stripper, as me, to my high school reunion, rigged it so I could feed “Andrea” info, and filmed the whole thing.
To say anymore would detract from the trailer, posted below in longer format (6 [pants-peeing] minutes) or here in shorter format (2 [hi-larious] minutes).
By September (in time for Sundance, heeeeey!), yes, this September, these trailers will have an actual documentary to represent, but in the editing meantime, enjoy these quicktime hors d’oeuvres.
But hey, guess what? Movies are expensive to make and my bankrolling credit cards are almost max’d! So if you do enjoy it please please and thanks in advance, donate some of your hard earned or trust fund cash to its completion! Send US american dollars to andrea at ihateselfpromotion.com . No amount is too small, nor too great. And for your generous donation my love for you will burn like an eternal flame, a movie will be made, and your name will be in it. Promise. Unless you don’t want it to and then it won’t. Money talks.
People talk, too, so tell everyone you will ever know.
I’m sorry. You are the funniest person ever.
Thank you for existing and making my life meaningful.
Okay seriously, I just want you to know I find the whole stunt and concept hilarious. Of course, I didn’t go to the reunion, so I might be biased. Can’t wait to see the whole thing.
That’s the funniest thing I’ve ever heard of and you rock! I hated my school too. ;o)
Andrea…this prank made my morning coffee break all the more enjoyable! Kudos to you for doing this. I’ve been involved in my 10th, 20th, and 30th (yes I’m that old) and I will say this is by far the best!
Reunions are harsh on many people and I totally understand. I’m just one of those people who don’t really care what the others think…I go and have fun regardless.
Not sure how far this will go, but your tongue-in-cheek approach is priceless! As for your friend Cricket…absolutely great…she should be commended for her acting ability on top of being a cutie!

Brilliant!
Many of us poor souls share in your angst, and rejoice in your victory! I’m thinking that for fund-raising, you could probably give the top donors a 10-20 sec spot that rolls at the end during the credits where they could share a short story as well…
I caught part of this on CNN and just HAD to go look for myself and watch the whole video. THAT WAS HILARIOUS! You are a sheer GENIUS.
This was as clever as can be. Absolutely hilarious!!
Wow. This made my day. I’m glad you made a mockery of the high school reunion and showed all those people how shallow they all really are, kudos!
Outstanding,forget the Documentary and wrap this concept into a romantic comedy. I’ve seen a whole lot of worst ideas go to the theaters and become a winner. You go girl, this is only the beginning for you and your team.
Andrea,
Thanks for making us crack him. You are very bright and funny. We will send you some hard earned cash because you deserve it! We will be first in line to see your movie. We totally are looking forward to it. Your family is a crack up so we see where you get it from. We say vote for “Andrea’s grandma for President!”
I’ll give you a pat on the back just for the sheer effort in this post.
I don’t usually comment on blog posts but I needed to drop by and tell you thank you for posting this, I absolutely agree and hopefully other people will understand your point.
me and my friends used to participate on a fund raising event for the protection of panda bears*’;
great stuff… got any sources for this post?
