BOLD AND BEAUTIFUL Interview
B&B's Next Generation
— By Deanna Barnert
Kayla Ewell: How many girls did you kiss before you kissed me the first time?
Drew Tyler Bell: You were my first kiss.
Ewell: You don't have to name them.
Bell Let's say an adequate number.
Ewell: Juicy question, juicy answer, come on!
Bell: Under 20.
Ewell: Okay. Same here.
Bell: You felt it didn't you?
Ewell: I did.
Bell: You got sucked in. Literally. (laughs)
Ewell: What would you rate it, on a scale of 1 to 10?
Bell: It was off the charts, baby. Is this all going to be about the kiss?
Ewell: What's the one thing you hate about working with me? You can be honest.
Bell: Hate is a pretty strong word.
Ewell: Okay, then what's the one thing you wish you could change about working with me?
Bell: You always say I'm in a bad mood. What do you find most appealing about me?
Ewell: When I don't think you're in a bad mood, it's really fun and easy to be around you. Most of the time, you're hyper and bouncing off the walls, so when you're not, when you're in a mellow mood, I'm like, "What's wrong?"
Bell: It's like if you see Jim Carrey walking normally down the sidewalk, you'd be like, "What's wrong with Jim Carrey?"
Ewell: No, I wouldn't.

Bell: Okay, bad example. How many posters do you have of me in your bedroom?
Ewell: In my bedroom or the whole house?
Bell: Bedroom, specifically.
Ewell: Five. I use you as wallpaper.
Bell: You have one up on the ceiling, so....
Ewell: When I lay down I can see you? Yeah, and on every door.
Bell: Everyone hates me but her, so I have to pay her to keep the posters up.
Ewell: That's not true. Everyone loves Drew. We hang out a lot. If I want to hang out with anyone on set, it's Drew.
Bell: She's always worried about lines before scenes.
Ewell: I'm not worried!
Bell: If we have six scenes, she wants to go through every single thing. We'll be five minutes away from doing our first scene and she'll say, "Drew, let's run scene five!" I'll be like, "I'm going to be so messed up if we run scene five."
Ewell: He has to run one scene the whole time and then after we do it, go to the next one.
Bell: It just makes sense. You can't be talking about a dead uncle if you're doing a scene where he hasn't died yet! You know what I'm saying?
Ewell: Yes. I'm just getting used to Drew's sense of humor.
Weekly: You were in the film Jeepers Creepers II? Wasn't that shot completely out of order?
Ewell: Good call! But you were doing two scenes a day, not eight or nine.
Bell: The problem with film is they don't have to have a specific 22 minutes [like B&B], so if they don't like your scene, they just cut you out.
Ewell: Which is what happened with Drew.
Bell: Yeah, I got cut out a lot.
Ewell: I told Drew I rented the DVD and saw him, and he said, "Oh, did you check the deleted scenes?" I'll have to rent it again, now.
Bell: Okay, let's go back to the kissing! You haven't taught me to surf yet.
Ewell: I keep telling Drew I'll teach him, even though I suck. Why would you want to learn from me?
Bell: Dude, the only problem is I'm on contract and if a shark eats me....
Ewell: Oh, my god, that's another thing. Drew is scared of sharks. I think it's because you grew up in Ohio, not near the ocean.
Bell: My brother is a pilot and he's taken me up over the ocean and you can see the sharks!
Ewell: No, you can't.
Bell: Yes, you can!
Ewell: I'm taking you surfing and we are going to sit there for hours and you'll see there are no sharks.
