Rachel McAdams has revealed that getting into the role of a TV producer for her new flick Morning Glory gave her a huge insight in to the media business.
The Notebook actress admitted that she's a sucker for daytime TV so she thought she knew what it would be like working on a show, but that the role showed her how hard the business really is:
"It's very interesting to be on the other side of the fence. It was really fun to go on these shows [while researching for the part] and see the anchors with their fluffy slippers on underneath the chair. And then from the point of the view of the control room.I mean it's completely crazy, very dramatic, fast-paced, yelling - I had a hard time following it at first when we got there, you know, it's so fast and the stories were over before you'd even acknowledged it."
Tell me about it Rachel! The 32-year-old went on to say that she really respects TV producers and news anchors after working on the flick:
"I have a lot of respect for what happens back there and how much energy and vitality you have to make it through this 3am to 10am shift and then do it all over again the next day."
