Emily Procter

Emily Procter is a true southern belle, a guise that hides her well
when she's playing pranks on her CSI: Miami co-stars. "I've been
playing a practical joke on Jonathan Togo [who plays Ryan Wolfe] for
the last two months," she confides with a giggle. "I got these novelty
bumper stickers from North Carolina - they say horrible things like,
‘I'm only speeding because I have to poop' and stuff, and I've been
putting them on his car weekly for months. He has no idea who's doing
it; it's slowly driving him crazy!" Procter originally studied Spanish
in college and anchored at a local news station; the dream of acting
never crossed her mind until a bad half-hour of TV came on the
station's feed, and with the knowledge that she certainly couldn't be
any worse, Procter headed to L.A. and never looked back.

The Top Ten Detectives Currently on TV

There is Just Something About a Good Crime Drama Show

Calleigh Duquesne is a supervisor and investigator on the hit show CSI: Miami.
She does a large amount of detective work on the show in addition to
her investigation and supervisory position. She is very happy go lucky
and just about everyone likes her. She is often thought of as being "too happy". The beautiful Emily Proctor portrays the character. She is not as tough as some of the women on these shows but she is probably the prettiest. NCIS has a version of CSI: Miami's Duquesne is Ziva David. She was
previously a Mossad agent, and daughter of its director, from Israel
who was an NCIS liaison. Eventually she leaves the Mossad in order to become a full agent of NCIS.
She is learning American customs and often slightly phrases American
slogans wrong. It is not admitted to on the show yet, but there is an
obvious attraction to fellow team member Tony DiNozzo. He often makes a
wide array of sexual jokes at her expense. She is a trained assassin
and has a bit of a cold demeanor except to her teammates. They have
used her associations in the Mossad for several storylines including
having to kill her brother as he was about to kill team leader Jethro
Gibbs. Cote de Pablo portrays David on the show. She is not as hot as
Emily proctor, but she is put together much better. She also has more
of a natural beauty about her.

Tony DiNozzo is a former police
officer and the second in command of the team. He is basically you
macho jock ladies man type. He pretty much likes anything with legs and
has a subtle but obvious interest in Ziva. He is not the smartest guy
on the team and relies on street smarts to get things done. He is
pretty tough and handy with a gun. A very interesting plot was that he
was once framed by an assistant lab geek who DiNozzo once testified
against. The team discovered the frame and helped him clear his name.
He also was on a deep cover mission were he romanced the daughter of an
arms dealer to help catch him but fell for her in the process. Tony
DiNozzo is portrayed by Michael Weatherly.

So here is an interesting interview Emily did for The Who's News Blog, enjoy!!!

Emily Procter brings Southern charm to 'CSI: Miami'

Posted by Lorrie Lynch

You only get a hint of Emily Procter’s North Carolina accent when she plays Calleigh Duquesne on the hit show CSI: Miami
(listen it for tonight on CBS), but her Southern charm becomes much
more pronounced when you get her talking about disembodied limbs, her
alma mater and her fledgling interior decorating business off the set
of her hit TV show. Our Brian Truitt found that out recently when he
talked with the spunky 41-year-old actress for an item on my Who’s News page this past weekend. Read below for more of their conversation.

You’ve been on CSI: Miami since it began in 2002. How have you tried to develop Calleigh over that time?
I’ve
been trying to make choices based on her non-written-about issues.
That’s been something I’ve anchored myself to in terms of her
character. I was shooting a scene yesterday, and in this episode
there’s a women that we believe was a drunk driver and she killed
somebody and Calleigh’s father is an alcoholic. It was really nice
because the director said, “I want to give you a moment with this body
because after all, your father is an alcoholic.” And I thought, “This
is great! They’re going for it!”

How about the gory crime scenes? Have you gotten used to those over eight seasons?
In
the very beginning, it was awful. I couldn’t sleep, and I had terrible
nightmares. It’s funny you bring it up because I was just talking to
our technical adviser about this yesterday. His wife had just had a
baby and he watched the epidural needle go in her back and it undid
him, but yet he’s been able to compartmentalize all of these gruesome
murders over the last 10 years. Every now and then, something really
weird will gross me out, and I think, “Really?” That must still be in
there. I’ve just shoved it under a pile of other stuff.

What’s the most recent thing that grossed you out?
This foot! We were working on this dismembered body, and it’s not like the dismembered body bothered me. It’s that when Christian [Clemenson] was scraping the toe, it moved and I was like, “Ewwwww.” Once you get used to this, I guess, you can get used to anything.

You grew up in Raleigh, N.C., and seem to have kept your Southern accent.
Probably
not as much on the show. Calleigh’s a bit too stern to have such an
accent. It would end up with me going, “Did you do it?! Come on. Just
tell me!”

Aside from Sandra Bullock, you’re probably one of the few celebrities to ever come out of East Carolina University.
I
went back this summer and I was like, “They have got to get it
together.” Some of these dorms are exactly the same, and I had no idea
how ghetto it was. I was like, “Mental note: Call school. Offer money
for dorms.” [Laughs] That’s what so great about ECU. Any other school
would have been on my doorstep. ECU’s like, “We’re so proud.” I’m like,
“Do you want some money?” And they’re like, “Ah, if you feel like it.
Don’t worry about it.” I was like, “You guys are cool.”

I hear you also do some interior decorating.
I
do a lot. Usually, I’m doing a house. This is the first year I have not
done a house, but I’ve done one every other season of the show. This
year, it’s possible it might be our last season or my last season, so I
thought I’m not gonna do anything else but just enjoy being on the show
this year. But I love it. It’s a big area of interest of mine. If and
when the show stops, that’s my first order of business: to get my
contractor’s license.

Do your friends hire you or do you make yourself available to anybody?
[Laughs]
I usually end up working for my friends, just because I think it’s a
little weird for other people to be like, “You’re that girl on the TV
show. That’s freaking me out.”


You need to have your co-star David Caruso hire you.

David actually just asked me about doing his place. [Laughs] It’s big. That

was part of the thing — he was like, How long would it take?” And I was
like, “It would take me a year.” That would be hard.

Would you ever consider hosting one of these interior-decorating reality shows they have now?
I’ve
actually been talking to somebody about doing a science show, which I’m
really excited about. It would be scientific mysteries along the lines
of Scientific American and things like that. He said, “It’d be great if
you did a show because we never have any girls do things like that.”
And I thought, “Yes! I would love to do that!”

Did you grow up liking science?
I
just grew up liking puzzles. Even to this day, I love to do jigsaw
puzzles, and then it gets really bad because I’ll time myself doing
them. I’m like, “How quickly can I solve this mystery?” I just like
that. In a lot of ways, ultimately I feel like I ended up on the best
show for me because that’s all I do.
