Exclusive Kate Jackson Interview 2005    

Interviewed by Christos Spirou (April 2005)

Q. Hello dear Kate. Here we are again. The last interview you gave me for the site was back in 2001. Four years later, this website is bigger than ever and the websites dedicated to you are even more in number. How does it feel that there are so many fans out there, die-hard fans that really love you, support you and follow your life and career?

Kate Jackson: I am so very grateful that there are people who are interested in me and my career. It amazes me how friendly people are when they recognize me on the street and brighten my day with something nice they want to say. I appreciate all the support from the fans all over the world and wish I could thank each and every one personally! I hope they know how much their support and interest means to me, and that I never take it for granted!

Q. How was your experience filming No Regrets. I must admit it was a really clever script and the cast was great. You had a very sweet and intimate scene with Edward Albert at the end of the film where you both cried. How did it feel to costar again with Edward Albert after so many years.

Kate Jackson: I had a wonderful time filming "No Regrets". We shot it in Nashville, Tennessee in the fall and it was a very romantic time of year. I loved working with Edward again. We hadn't seen each other in twenty-five years and it was a wonderful reunion. Our scene together at the end of the film was quite personal and we were both moved by it. Rarely do you have the opportunity to work with someone with whom you have had a close relationship.

Q. Do you have any plans for a new movie or any upcoming project?

Kate Jackson: I was going to Vancouver to do a film, but because of the injury to my foot and ankle I've had to drop out of it. It was not the greatest film in the world, so I'm not all that disappointed. Still, it is always good to work!

Q. Please describe a typical day of yours.

Kate Jackson: My typical day begins when the clock rings at 6:30 and I get up, dress, wake Taylor, go into the kitchen to make his breakfast and feed our dog. After he eats and dresses, I drive him to school. Then I go to the gym for my workout to get that out of the way. At noon, I usually meet a friend for lunch, shop, or stay home and catch up on my letter writing or other work. At 2:30 I pick Taylor up and take him to his golf lesson, or piano lesson, or baseball practice, or whatever is going on that day. If he doesn't have anything planned to do, we do something that we just choose to do together, or he plays with a friend of his. At 6 we eat dinner, he does his homework (I help him if he asks me to), then we get ready for bed. We read for thirty minutes before going to sleep. I set the TV to record any program that might be on that night so I can watch it some other time, set the clock, and try to get a good night's sleep so I am fresh for all the things the next day will hold.

Q. Your son Taylor must be around 10 now. How does it feel to see him growing up every day and play the major and most important part in his life as his mother?

Kate Jackson: Being Taylor's mother is the most wonderful "part" I have ever played! I am so full of love for him! He gives my life so much meaning and we have a wonderful relationship. He is growing so fast! I can't believe it!! I try to be as involved in his life as I can and we have a great time doing things together. We both treasure our time together and he makes me so proud!

Q. Last year you mentioned an upcoming Charlie's Angels related project .Is there any possibility to see something in the future about our favorite original Charlie's Angels? Can you believe that the Charlie's Angels craze is still big as ever? With all the DVD releases and re-runs there are so many new fans in the world. How do you feel about it?

Kate Jackson: There is a "Charlie's Angels" project in the wind. I don't know if it will really happen or not, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it will! It is amazing that with the DVDs and reruns there are new fans every day. Who ever would have thought it would still be so popular today! It makes me feel very grateful that fans still want to watch the original series so many years after we did it. I really do think a reunion would be great!

Q. Do you still keep in touch with Farrah and Jaclyn?

Kate Jackson: Farrah and Jaclyn and I are still good friends who speak to each other as often as we can and see each other when we're all in town at the same time. We have a very strong bond of friendship from the first days of the series that I think will always stay with us. We all truly care about each other.

Q. If you could turn back the time and start again in the Charlie's Angels era, what you would change about your character or the concept of the series? Would you change anything in your life???

Kate Jackson: If I could turn back time, I wouldn't change a thing about the series. There are a couple of mistakes I made in my personal life that I would be smart enough to avoid making again, though, but even those aren't very big mistakes. So basically I think I can say that I wouldn't change anything.

Q. How much time do you spent on the internet?

Kate Jackson: I use the Internet for research and things of that sort. It is incredibly interesting what you can learn or accomplish on the Internet. I do some Internet shopping, especially for books.

Q. Do you collect anything?

Kate Jackson: No, I don't collect anything. I have a collection of antique chairs, but I've stopped adding to it. Too many already!!

Q. If your life would become a film what title you would give?

Kate Jackson: I'll have to think about the title for the film about my life...but it would probably be something like "Me: So Far, So Good!".

Q. Which actress you would like to play you in the film?

Kate Jackson: There are so many fine young actresses now it would be very hard for me to choose one to play me. Who do you think?

Q. How do you feel right at this very minute where you answer questions for a fan site dedicated to you?

Kate Jackson: I feel very grateful that there is a site dedicated to me and that people are interested enough in me to want to know more about me. I especially feel grateful to my friend, Christos.

Q. Please let me know what you feel about the following projects of yours:

Kate Jackson: How I feel about the following projects:

"Killer Bees"... The movie I met Edward on and in which I worked with the screen legend, Gloria Swanson. It was a kick!
"Death at Love House"... I loved working with RJ Wagner and Joan Blondell and Sylvia Sydney. I don't remember it as being a very good movie, though.
"Inmates: A Love Story"... Loved working with Perry King. Really enjoyed making the movie. Lots of fun on the set between shots. Great cast and crew.
"Loverboy"... Loved working with Patrick Dempsey...but thought the whole thing was a little bit silly.
"Black Death"... Shot in Toronto, I think, and it was COLD!!!! Jerry Orbach was a great pal. This one doesn't really stand out in my mind as anything I remember anything very special about.
"Cold Heart of a Killer"... Loved working in the Yukon and in Alaska. It was a real adventure. I did my own stunts and rode the sled-but the way it was shot, you couldn't even tell it was really me!!
"Miracle Dogs"... Lots of fun. Very relaxed and low key. Taylor was on location with me and he had a great time with the dogs and the puppies!
"Sabrina, The Teenage Witch..."... Easy hours, relaxed, enjoyable.
"Third Watch"... Great cast and crew! Very intense work. Felt like really acting again, doing that crazy woman!

Q. You have received the Power of Love award from the American Heart Association. Please let us know more things about this event and your role in the AM. Heart Association.

Kate Jackson: I have been involved with The American Heart Association for quite a few years. I have been their Spokesperson, and, as you said, received the "Power of Love " award, which was quite an honor. I think they do such great work. Do yourself a favor and visit their website for some information you be glad you learned-no matter how old or young you may be!

Q. Where can fans write to you?

Kate Jackson: To be perfectly honest, I don't know where to write to me. Perhaps c/o my agent, David Shipira. I'll have to get back to you on that one. You could always write to CBS...
