The Straits Times (Singapore) Willing to Share David's Ass...
So says David Duchovny's wife, Tea Leoni. The beautiful star of
Jurassic Park 3 reveals this and much more
IT IS about time the world catches on to Tea Leoni, or Mrs David
Duchovny, whose sexy larger-than-life personality has "stardom"
written all over it.
A psychology and anthropology graduate of Sarah Lawrence College in
New York, the beautiful and ballsy actress struggled to establish her
film and TV career after making her debut in A League Of Their Own in
1992.
False starts along the way included the television sitcom The Naked
Truth (1995-1997) and last year's tepid The Family Man.
This year, however, two biggies are set to change all that -- the
galumphing dinosaur ride Jurassic Park 3, which opened last week, and
People I Know, opposite Al Pacino. Also in the pipeline is a yet-
untitled Woody Allen comedy.
On a vast sound stage in Universal Studios in Los Angeles, the 1.7-m,
svelte 35-year-old sits gracefully in a foldable chair, clad in a
black turtleneck sweater and orange slacks.
Warm and candid as she is known to be, she gives her take on
marriage, kids and having to "share" Duchovny's ass with the rest of
the world.
LEONI points excitedly to a life-sized wax model of a velociraptor in
the room and trills: "Look! That's a male raptor. And I don't even
have to look below the belt."
Wow! How can you tell?
By the quills on its head. Only the males have it. See, I paid
attention. Impressed? (Winks and grins wickedly)
Very. Is there anything else you'd like to show off?
Yeah, the multiple bruises I got from the stunts we had to do in
Jurassic Park 3. But you can't see them under my clothes unless ...
(grins again). I wear my bruises proudly. I think they're sexy.
Mmmmmm, I bet they are. Er-hem, what about your David? Does he think
so too?
Yeah, I was filming Jurassic Park 3 when David was doing Evolution,
and we'd come home and compare bruises.
David bared his ass in Evolution, didn't he? Now we all know what it
looks like. What do think of that?
Oh, I think he has such a terrific ass, I'm willing to share. If he
had a bad ass, I would have pulled him aside and said: "Now baby, we
can't do that anymore."
Evolution and Jurassic Park 3 both opened this summer, so now both of
you are competing against each other at the box office ...
No, are you kidding? We're sleeping together. This takes the saying "what's good for the goose is good for the gander" to a whole
new level. No, it's not competitive. It's more like, "Oh my God, we
rock!"
Is it hard maintaining a celebrity relationship?
No harder than maintaining any relationship. It's just that everytime
a celebrity couple divorces, it gets splashed on the covers of
magazines. But you know what I'd be curious to find out? That if you
pit celeb relationships against the national divorce rate, would they
be similar?
Good question but I don't have the answer to that. The two of you
have a two-year-old daughter. Did that help you relate to the role of
a mother who has lost her child on a dino-infested island in Jurassic
Park 3?
David and I have been through a similar crisis. We nearly lost our
child a year ago. Use your imagination because I don't want to
elaborate, and it's as bad as anything that comes out of your
imagination. It changed our lives in ways that sometimes we wished we
could be ignorant again to the realities.
Was she ill?
Yes, but I won't say anymore.
Is she better now?
Yes, well enough to come to work with me on Jurassic Park 3. They
gave us a great trailer with toys and a nanny. It worked well. It's
trickier now because she's two.
Aaaah, the troublesome twos.
Yeah -- that thing ... not that I know what it means, but everyone
says it to me and I'm just agreeing.
Coming back to the movie, do you think this Jurassic will do as well
as the first two?
(Looking serious) Yes, this isn't just the third one, it's the best
one because it revolves around a very real and instinctual storyline
about a couple trying to rescue their son. People can relate to that.
(Pause) At any rate, if this movie tanks, I'll just blame the
dinosaurs.
