A month ago I wrote here that “my first thought was Jensen campaigned to be Bacchus King to get the burgeoning Louisiana film industry to notice him. .....my second thought was, are the senior Grauls member of the kewes club? Does papa Graul know Bennen? Did CW offer Bennen incentives to pick Jensen for Bacchus king? My final thought was, “episode XX is going to be Dean-lite”, which CW knew ahead of time.”
From the Advocate article (credit):
“And then I get a call from Holly (Ollis, WB studio publicist for 'Supernatural'), who said that she had found a way to turn my day around.” She told him he'd been asked to be Bacchus LI.” Although only Krewe of Bacchus officials know what goes into choosing Bacchus each year, Danneel Ackles and Ollis made inquiries to the Bacchus organization, “officially without asking me,” said Jensen Ackles, jokingly."
“I had to be written out of part of an episode so I could come,” said Ackles. “It is near the end of the season, so not a lot left. But I still have to go back to work.”
My favorite part of the article:
[Danneel Ackles] has been part of the “Supernatural” cast for two seasons.
Any noob reading this article would come away thinking Danneel is a full time cast member on the show for 2 seasons and 22 episodes. Holly, I see what you did there. Jensen, you gotta stop proving me right or else the chuckleheads on this site are going to start taking me seriously.
