Blossom and Big Bang Theory star Mayim Bialik stopped by this morning to promote her new book Mayim’s Vegan Table. She talked to Howard about her accidental child-stardom, the role Judaism plays in her life, and, of course, her unique views on parenting.
Here are the highlights from Mayim’s interview:
* Mayim was interested in performing arts as a child, but wouldn’t call herself a ‘hammy’ kid. She did a few school plays and auditioned to play the child version of Bette Midler’s character in Beaches. She got the role, though her singing was sub-par and dubbed by another, better child singer at Bette’s request.
* The Beaches role led to Mayim shooting into the pop-culture stratosphere when she landed the role of Blossom Russo on the hit 90s sitcom ‘Blossom’. Mayim said the pay scale was different back then and she wasn’t making nearly the kind of money that can be made in TV today. Ted Danson had just broken the $100,000 per episode mark and everyone was in awe of a sitcom star making that much money.
Luckily, Mayim’s family was a responsible one, and aside from upgrading to a nicer home with heat, they put most of it away for Mayim.
* When the sitcom ended, Mayim walked ‘right off [the] TV screen and into the quad’ of UCLA. She had been accepted to Harvard and Yale, but had to defer because her contract and Blossom wasn’t up for another two years. Harvard and Yale were not accommodating, so Mayim chose UCLA.
She basically took fourteen years off for show business. She met her husband at UCLA, got married, had two children, and, yes, got divorced. Mayim and her ex-husband seem to have a pretty decent relationship, and they co-parent their two sons.
