There's a sweat rag with you name on it.

When I was working on the finale I had to shoot in a moving vehicle. And so the woman who was working makeup at the time, gave me a folded paper towel to put in my pocket and dab the sweat between takes. Afterward I looked at the towel and noticed that she had written my name on it. Wouldn't this make my forehead dirty? 
Why was she trying to keep all of our sweats organized? 
Can you clone someone from their sweat?

I bet that sweat rag turns up on Ebay this week! :)

Laura Waltz said...

Now that is hilarious! Where is the apostrophe though? Did it rub off on your face...or did she forget it?

maven said...

Haha, Meg, that was my first thought, too, that Jorge's sweat towel would be on Ebay!

Acacia said...

Maybe making your face dirty would add to the validity of the scene?

Lynda said...

That is really strange. Did she want it back? Maybe she has a secret collection. hee hee

Paul Spooner said...

Its not all glamour is it!

Tammy said...

Now that's organization, she must be a total TYPE A.

redelf said...

That has to be because the makeup lady is a mom. When you are a mom you label EVERYTHING.

Iberostar said...

Maybe she rolls around on it in the secrecy of her apartment - or like Meg said - eBay! I do admit, no one has ever written my name on a sweat rag.

Joey Polanski said...

If you usd a towel that didnt have yer name on it, thatd be a unauthorizd dabbing now, woudnt it?

Olivia said...

Can you clone someone from their sweat?

Yes, I'm almost certain of it.

Emily said...

That's really sketchy, and yes it would come off into your pores! Maybe she wanted to examine how much make-up you sweat off so she could compensate. Watch out for little kids that look like you, just in case.

Updates about Hanna said...

She was gonna sell that sucker on Ebay!

Eugen Caitaz said...

Clone their sweat ???
This is very interesting !!!

Jana said...

Hey Jorge, will you autograph that and send it my way? I promise I won't put it on ebay.

Just make sure no one sells it to Peta: http://movies.yahoo.com/news/movies.eonline.com/104044-

Jan said...

uh, I'd hold on to that if I were you.

LostFan said...

Hmmmm...moving vehicle. Is that a spoiler? Was it a Dharma Van or Jeep?

Kelly Deneen Raymond said...

Ha! I was totally going to say eBay too. Hopefully your name did not end up on your forehead. :)

Amy said...

too funny that she wrote your name on it!
It kinda looks like she used a sharpie & although I don't know for sure, I don't think sharpie ink would come off on your face.
Stuff like that should go up on ebay with the proceeds going to a worthy charity - there's nothing wrong with that.
& even though telling us you were in a moving vehicle in the finale doesn't spoil anything...I like the fact that I now know that little tidbit - thanks :-)

Das Mutter said...

so is this pic taken before or after the shoot? That is the real question. LOL

Malea said...

You have already filmed the finale? I hate it when reality and Lost collide. I never want it to end.

MotherFury said...

I'm voting eBay...

Chris said...

You will know the answer to the clone question when they tell you there is no need to show up for shooting season 6 and yet you end up in every episode. :)

my3boys said...

That's a PAPER towel? That is like the fattest, fluffiest paper towel ever.

Lisa Deon said...

Well you know Jorge, with the economy the way it is that paper towel might get saved and you'll be using it all next season too.

Every little bit of cost cutting helps, you know. Plus you're making a greener planet but cutting down less Paper Towel trees...

New Yorker wannabes said...

OK now it is weird to be asking you this but...is your name spelled correctly on the towel, Jorge(s)?! Hmmm maybe the 's' is the sign you are looking for...plural for cloning (lollol)

Have a great week Jorge!
Peace and love
xoxo

I wish I could edit instead of deleting but here goes again:

The time to really start wondering or worrying is the day you or anyone else sees their name written on a roll of TP!

Unknown said...

I definitely think it was a trap Jorge !

MsSnarkyPants said...

I'm not sure I'd want someone else's sweat rag touching me, maybe she was just trying to protect your delicate sensibilities. :D

Becky said...

I guess now we know why you have your name spelled backwards on your forehead.

Christina Bauer said...

Ebay, perhaps? But it's probably in her contract to NOT do that. Maybe she just didn't want them to somehow get mixed up? That is strange, though!

Deborah Godin said...

Well, now we'll all be looking for that missing apostrophe on your forehad in the upcoming episodes. Only backwards, I guess, right?

blaqbird said...

lol!

ZebraBelly: said...

OBVIOUSLY she is planning to clone you. The lack of apostrophe makes it a plural instead of posessive. Plural Jorges = cloned Jorges.

Nerdmom said...

I think it's probably to prevent your sweat rag from being mixed up with other people's sweat rags. No one wants mixed-up sweat rags.

Rachel said...

Ewwww - I know why. When I was a manager for the boys basketball team in HS we kept everyones rags separate to keep from spreading IMPETIGO.

Bleck! It's that nasty, itchy, pussy, yellow skin infection people sometimes get when they are sweaty a lot (usually athletes). It's super contagious and the next thing you know everyone has it. I suppose working in a hot, sweaty jungle with people who need to be on camera would leave you not wanting to take any chances!

Mandril Trash said...

you are coming to spain soon :P WE LIKE IT ;D

evielilly said...

Hello Jorge,

I come to discovered your blog and it is really great!

I look forward to being in April 25th to meet all the actors and the actresses of this serie magnificent: Lost.

Will you be present during this beautiful evening?

You can say to me if the other actors the other actresses will
be present this day as Josh Holloway and Evangeline Lilly.

To see you every 3 would make for me extremely
pleasure.

I am a fan of Lost since the beginning
and I miss no episode of this new season which I find exceptional.

Sorry if my English is not very well but I am French
A soon in 25 I hope.
Xoxo

ValMo said...

I think someone mentioned the PETA thing, but maybe she just wants to make some Jorge-flavored tofu.
And I definitely LOL'd at the missing apostrophe. ehehehe

Thomas said...

you knwo that sweat is pee? so, i dont think you can clone someone from their pee...^^

jPT said...

Do they think your name is spelled like that, or do they not understand apostrophes?

Auntie Depressant said...

Totally an ebay item! Cloning-hmmm...maybe she was going to sneak that towel off to the Orchid station to do some experiments. If she crosses that towel with one of the numbered bunnies do we get a giant bunny named Jorge? >_<

Colby said...

That is the cushiest, nicest piece of paper towel I have EVER seen! It looks more like a plush hand towel to me! By the way, I haven't laughed so hard in quite a while, reading these posts!
