With Greg Beeman. The Lana bits were the most amusing. And they did read the essay about Lana as a fetish object! If they know her character has a limited role and she has spend three seasons only being the object of the heros desire, well than why is she the second lead ahead of Lex Luther??? It's not so much her role I object too, it's all the screen time she eats up. All the shots of the camera lingering on her, nearly every ending focusing on her.

K-SITE: Is it true that you guys dress Kristin Kreuk in pink just to annoy us?
BEEMAN: At this point in time, I am amused by the anger of the fans, but no, not really.
Kristin, because I think she was always designed to be the princess, you know, the object of desire, I think the idea was to put her in very innocent colors, and she would be the innocent one. And frankly, she looks great in pink.
Kristin doesn't really like pink, and she hates being dressed in pink. I don't know whether Kristin goes online or not, but if she does, she probably really doesn't like the comments about her being the pink princess and everything. You know, she's very sensitive, actually, and I think she really objects to pink. So, I gave her a chance to pick her own colors on one episode, which was Crisis. And she picked this terrible color of green, and this terrible color of orange, and that was the end of that. And I think if you see the episode you'll agree, that the orange she chose, and the green she chose, were not a success. So, we were right back to pink.
she's very sensitive. I think that all that “I Hate Lana” stuff - how do you not take that personally? I think she's aware of it. I think it hurts her. I don't think she's always happy with Lana, and I think Lana's a really tricky character. She's a tricky character because I've read things like MobiusKlein's objectification of Lana, but, you know, in some ways, that's the truth, but in some ways, that's what it needs to be. Especially from the beginning. She was the object of his desire, and she motivated him. As a dramatic instrument, he needed to have something that made him want to move forward, and so Lana was that. She was in fact sort of an object. Miles and Al were always very alert to the fact that they didn't want her to only do that, and they gave the Talon to give her something to do.
