What BBN said about it

  1. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorA couple went as Sonny and Cher, and Today's roundup describes them as a former couple. The costume outlasted the relationship.

  2. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorJoining us live is Juniper Calloway Vance-Roe, star of Haunted Brunch. Ms. Calloway, thank you for being here.

  3. Juniper Calloway Vance-RoeThanks, Gloria, it's lovely to be here. I brought the asp, because it's Halloween and I don't leave it at home.

  4. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorToday's guide also lists Chrissy Teigen and John Legend as Cleopatra and Mark Antony. Is that why you brought the asp?

  5. Juniper Calloway Vance-RoeYes. I did Cleopatra in twenty twenty-three, and Mark Antony quit by Thanksgiving. We were always aligned, and Brent left anyway.

  6. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorToday says Evan Peters and Halsey, a former couple, went as Sonny and Cher. What's your view of that?

  7. Juniper Calloway Vance-RoeIt's a professional decision. The costume was booked before the breakup, and nobody cancels a costume over a feeling.

  8. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorSonny and Cher famously split, and then kept performing together. That's a longer arrangement than most treaties.

  9. Juniper Calloway Vance-RoeThat's the dream, Gloria. A clean split and a standing booking.

  10. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorTell us about Haunted Brunch.

  11. Juniper Calloway Vance-RoeIt's a show where six ghosts critique a mimosa bar. I play the host, and the ghosts are mostly my agent's cousins.

  12. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorCousins.

  13. Juniper Calloway Vance-RoeThey're very committed to the haunting. Unlike Dennis, who left the pilot over a parking space.

  14. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorLet me ask you the hard one. How many scene partners have left you?

  15. Juniper Calloway Vance-RoeWe were always aligned. I'd say it's a normal amount for a project of this scale, and Brent isn't speaking to me.

  16. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorI asked how many.

  17. Juniper Calloway Vance-RoeFour. I did Batman and Catwoman once, and Batman left at intermission. I kept the ears.

  18. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorLightning round. Best couples costume, Gomez and Morticia or Shrek and Fiona?

  19. Juniper Calloway Vance-RoeGomez and Morticia. Shrek and Fiona is just two people who lost a bet.

  20. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorOdysseus and Athena, which Variety likes as a pairing?

  21. Juniper Calloway Vance-RoeAthena. She gives advice and then leaves, which is the only reliable partner I've found.

  22. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorFinal plug, then. Haunted Brunch, with the ghosts, the cousins and the mimosas. Rating: eight out of ten, pending Brent.

  23. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorMiss Calloway, the asp has filed for separation, and I'm told it's amicable.
