American actress and fashion icon Chloë Sevigny is one of Hollywood's boldest and most gifted actors. Known for her many indie film roles, Sevigny has garnered much critical acclaim since her 1995 debut, most recently a Golden Globe for her performance on HBO's Big Love. Sevigny is also widely revered for her sense of style, and recently launched her fourth collection for the hip NY label Opening Ceremony.

Advocate.com has published a really excellent and insightful article and interview with Chloë Sevigny ahead of tomorrow’s Hit & Miss premiere on DirecTV, in which Chloë talks about, among other things, working on Hit & Miss, playing Nicki on Big Love, a controversy that arose this spring of her use of the word “tranny”, and the Drew Droege “Chloe Sevigny” spoof videos on YouTube. Definitely one of her best interviews this year; highly recommend reading. :) Full article on Advocate.com or under the cut.


Chloe Sevigny Hits It with Her Best Shot
by Diane Anderson-Minshall

The actress subverts gender again in her newest role as a transgender woman who just happens to be an assassin.

Actress Chloë Sevigny may be best known to TV viewers for playing Nicolette “Nicki” Grant, the most interesting of three sister wives on HBO’s long-running polygamy drama, Big Love. But she’s equally iconic for her game-changing roles in the shocking Kids and the transgender Oscar-winner Boys Don’t Cry. Sevigny’s had a bevy of films that play with gender, including Candy Darling and If These Walls Could Talk 2, and last year she cross-dressed as distinctive fashion photographer Terry Richardson for the cover of the avant-garde trans fashion magazine Candy (shot by Richardson).

She subverts gender again in her next role, where she plays a transgender woman who just happens to be an assassin. It may be her best part yet. Hit & Miss, a six-part miniseries that premieres in July on DirectTV, centers around Mia, a contract killer whose trans identity is unknown to those around her. Her life, already precarious, is sent into a tailspin when she receives a letter from her ex. The woman is dying and wants to confess that before she transitioned, Mia fathered an 11-year-old son.

For the role, Sevigny wanted to play Mia as a glamorous woman who easily passes as female — more April Ashley (a gorgeous famous British fashion model outed as transgender in 1961) than Felicity Huffman’s Transamerica character, who she says “hadn’t quite flourished all the way yet.”

Even more from the UK press — Chloë Sevigny is featured in the May 13 issue of The Sunday Times. The article naturally focuses on Chloë’s work in the upcoming Hit & Miss miniseries and is perhaps the best of all the recent ones on Chloë so far overall, so be sure to give it a read either via the digital scans in our gallery or on the Sunday Times website.

Extracts from the article:

“I think it might be one of the most extreme roles I’ve done, yes,” Sevigny says in a languid East Coast drawl, her hair back to blonde from Mia’s deep brown.

It’s not just that you believe Sevigny as Mia in Hit & Miss — once you see it, she’s the only actress you could imagine in the role.

“I cried every day when they put [on the prosthetic penis]. You know, I’m ample-chested and I have this on. I felt very exposed, and it was hard, very hard, having people so close to your personal parts anyway — who you’re not sleeping with — for an hour and a half each day, to put it on. Then looking in the mirror… it was weird. I was lonely and I felt really unattractive. I was confused about my desirability — was I desirable? — in having that put on, and having men see me with that on.”

Self-awareness and self-promotion don’t tend to play well together, but Sevigny can’t, or won’t, stop saying what she thinks. An example: ostensibly, she’s talking to me to promote her Paul Abbott TV show, yet she says straightaway that she had never heard of him when she signed up for Hit & Miss, and has never met him.

So how about a little fun in future roles? “It depends, of course, on script, director, blah, blah, blah, but yes, I would love to do something comedic, or something big and actiony or romantic. I love all that. I went to see Jane Eyre, the Mia Wasikowska one, recently. It was so beautiful — a little boring, but so beautiful. I would die to be in something like that.”

Two hi-res digital scans of Chloë’s Telegraph feature have been uploaded to the gallery; while we wait to get our hands on the Guardian Weekend issue, check out the interview on the Guardian website — the article is brief but really very good.

When were you happiest?
Last time I was on the dance floor – in Manchester a few weeks ago.

What is the worst thing anyone’s said to you?
I was in a relationship with somebody who recounted that someone had said of me, “She has a great body, but the face not so much.” That was it.

What do you owe your parents?
Being grounded. My sense of self.

To whom would you most like to say sorry, and why?
To my brother Paul, for certain misunderstandings.

What or who is the love of your life?
Other than my dad, there was a boy, but he is not in my life any more.

What is the worst job you’ve done?
I worked for a tout, and had to sit outside Madison Square Garden all night, waiting to buy tickets for Janet Jackson or something.

What is the closest you’ve come to death?
Sailing through the eye of a hurricane on the Atlantic Ocean six years ago.

What song would you like played at your funeral?
Ave Maria – I was raised Catholic.

What is the most important lesson life has taught you?
Not to take it so seriously.

New York Magazine has done a feature on Chloë Sevigny’s East Village apartment in New York City.

Update: Chloë is also on the cover of the magazine’s May 7th issue. Check out the sultry cover in our gallery.

Excerpt from the article via NYMag.com:

Sitting on Chloë Sevigny’s glass-topped kitchen table is a script for Black Dog, Red Dog, a feature film directed by James Franco and eleven of his NYU students. She shot it for free. “I’m out of work right now,” she says, laughing. “I thought it would be good to help some young filmmakers and busy myself so I don’t go crazy and obsess over buying a cat.”

[...] On breaks from Big Love, Sevigny would buy a lamp here and a mirror there from David Cafiero, who runs the tiny by-appointment antiques store Cafiero Select in Cooper Square, and who helped decorate her brother Paul’s club, the Beatrice Inn. “We’re both from New England,” says Sevigny. “He’s really inspired by the sea, and I grew up on the water. I was like, ‘Ahhh. I wish I could just live in his store!’”

[...] As Sevigny shows me around, she realizes that she had quite a bit of decorating help from an ex-boyfriend, musician Matt McAuley (A.R.E. Weapons, TV Baby), whom she dated for eight years and whose gifts are everywhere. The copper teakettle. A pitcher in a Tiffany toile pattern. A framed postcard of Jesus. “When he moved out, he took all the pictures of us out of the frames and put that one in,” she says. “I left it there. It’s kind of weird, right? But it’s beautiful.”

The article also confirms Chloë’s appearance in James Franco’s Black Dog, Red Dog. Read it in full on NYMag.com; a couple of outtakes from the accompanying photoshoot in our gallery.

TheaterMania.com reports Chloë Sevigny will be participating in a special one-night-only reading of the Tom Eyen-play Women Behind Bars on May 7. More from TheaterMania.com:

The New Group @ Theatre Row will present a one-night-only benefit reading of the play Women Behind Bars by Tom Eyen at 7pm on Monday, May 7 at the Acorn Theatre. It will be directed by Scott Elliott.

The play is set on New Year’s Eve 1952 in The Women’s House of Detention in Greenwich Village. When the innocent and lovely Mary-Eleanor is framed by her husband and put away, her arrival in the house of detention sparks rivalries that build to increasingly dangerous — not to say unspeakable and hilarious — conflicts among her fellow prisoners and the sadistic Matron.

The cast will feature Charles Busch (The Matron), Janeane Garofalo (Louise), Nancy Giles (Jo-Jo), Josh Hamilton (the men), Natasha Lyonne (Cheri), Cynthia Nixon (Blanche), Rosie O’Donnell (Gloria), Rosie Perez (Guadalupe), Rhea Perlman (Granny, The Warden), Chloë Sevigny (Mary-Eleanor), and Jennifer Tilly (Ada).

For tickets and information, email Brandon Suisse at brandon@thenewgroup.org.
