Any questions for Jamie Foxx and Rob Zombie? I know, they're easy to confuse

AUGUST 19, 2009

A postponement Monday of my interview with Halloween II director Rob Zombie leads to an interesting Wednesday. Today I'll get telephone calls from Zombie and Academy Award winning actor/comedian/musician Jamie Foxx, who'll be focusing on the latter talent Aug. 28 with his Blame It tour at Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center.

Toss in tapping out a story on Chris Fuller, the St. Pete filmmaker whose lauded debut Loren Cass opens Aug. 28 at Beach Theatre, and this should be an interesting day.

But the schedule has me scrambling for questions to ask Foxx and Zombie, so I'm shouting "help" to you, dear readers.

What do you want to hear from the hirsute prince of darkness and and the lively prince of show biz? And don't say: "When are those two guys collaborating?"
