Interview with Jesse Spencer

Jesse Spencer as Dr. Robert Chase
Sarrah Le Marquand of the Courier-Mail has a nice little interview with our Dr. Robert Chase, played by Aussie actor Jesse Spencer. The main topic: Just how did Spencer get the gig?

My agent rang up and said they had a pilot and I said, “What’s the point of me going in for that? I’m sick of going in for these roles that I’m never right for.’ I’ll go in for stuff that pushes the boundaries, but 36?

And they said, “Well what else are you going to do?” and I said, “I don’t know . . . go to the pub.”

    Dear Jesse,

    I hope you can visit Portugal one of these days and I will definitely dream of that day.Just kidding.I have been to Australia,it’s a lovely country,and I believe you will love Portugal too.
    I have a question : will there be anymore “action” between Chase and Cameron?Or will it slow down?Anyway,congrats on your awesome work.

    Love,

    Diana.

    *_*You’ve been to Spain! That’s great!

    By the way, I’m very confused about the seasons of House that are on in America and in Spain. I mean, here is airing season 3, but it seems it has finished, and last week Lady said that “Act your age” was in that season, but I haven’t seen it… And in this season I haven’t missed any episode, so that’s strange.

    Hello everyone!

    I’ll start by trying to answer some of your questions.

    In response to Rebecca and Tricia, I think that it’s a lot easier to have a relationship with someone on the show because your lines are all written for you and you don’t have to worry as much about making it work. Of course, real-life relationships are a lot harder. However, since on the show the relationship between Jennifer and I is slightly different than our real relationship, it’s a lot easier not to mix up where Chase and I differ in our personalities and lives. If the storyline had been closer to that of our real relationship I think it would have been a lot harder to differienciate between my relatioship with Jen and the relationship I am trying to portray with Cameron.

    Joana, I know whwere Portugal is but I’ve never been there. The closest I’ve been to Portugal is Spain a few years back, but I’d love to visit Portugal one day.

    Also, in “Uptown Girls” I did sing most of my own songs, however, the higher vocals were pre-recorded.

    Thanks again for your wonderful support.

    Jesse Spencer

    Hey Jesse,

    Now, at least I don’t need your advices, but my friend does, although today we performed our play and we get some fans (*Smiles a lot*) He’s still being quite shy, so he still needs your help.

    I AM OBSESSED WITH HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ok, maybe a little too obsessed.:) Anyway I think House is wonderful and I can’t wait to see more of the Chase/Cameron realationship.;)

  8. By Irene

    Thanks. I’m just watching House, but not that episode :(

  9. By Lady

    “act your age” is season three. i’m not sure what number episode.

  10. By Irene

    “Act your age”? In which season is it? Because I don’t know if it’s in Spain yet. Is it in season 3? Maybe I’ll see it soon, but I don’t know. Because the last episode I saw was the one of the St. Valentine’s Day.

  11. By Elizabeth

    I saw the episode “Act your age”, and I loved it. didn’t get to see all of it though, because i’m only 12 and i have to get to bed before the show is over:(:( maybe i should get dad to tape it………….

  12. By Lady

    i just watched the episode “act your age” and clearllyyyy cameron still wants you. house is the best show ever fer shizzlee.

  13. By Lady

    the cast of “house” is so damn fine.

  14. By Taylor

    Hey Jesse,
    I have to make this quick but i have a VERY important question to ask you so if you could just e-mail me @ princesstaylorns@yahoo.com soon that would be great

    Hi Jesse

    I saw Uptown Girls recently and wondered whether you actually sang the three songs all by yourself? If so, then you did a great job, wow! I wish there was an opportunity for you to sing or play some music on House M.D.

    Regards
    Dolly

    Congrats on the engagment!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wonderful news. I am a HUGE fan of House. Great show. Keep us posted on the realationship beatween Dr. Chase and Dr.Cameron, please.:)

  17. By Irene

    O_O I’ve just noticed that in my comment I made a mistake. *Blushes*. When I made the sentence into brackets I meant: “Tell her that I wish her a great life with you.” *Laughs* Well, that’s it.
    HAVE A GREAT TIME!! (To both of you)

    Hi jesse,

    I´m from Portugal, you probably don´t know where that is.Do you? You have a lot of fans in portugal,so if you wanna come visit our country you are welcome.
    I just wanna say that i´m a huge fan, i love all your movies and of course House.I love your australian accent, please never loose it because it is very sexy.
    Keep doing your excelent job on house, have a great life with jennifer.

    Take care

    Hi Jesse,

    I’m one of your fans of Spain. I really like your performance in House! If there’s a night that I don’t watch the series, it’s because I’m punished… Well, anyway, I just want that you have a great life with Jennifer! (Tell her that I wish a great life with you)
    By the way, I need a little tip for acting on a stage… Well, not me, a friend of mine, but I think it will be perfect for me too! We have begun in a theatre company in our town.
    The problem is that my friend is too shy. I’m not as shy as him, but because of this trouble we can’t act so well. What can we do?

    Thanks!! (and sorry for my English)
