1. easy-the Olivier is the Brit equivalent of a Tony. I think I read this in People magazine (or heard it on J!)2. easy. 3. easy. When I hear the word "nebula" I think space, so science fiction would be my answer.4. I'd either ATA or JTQ. I don't think they sell kombucha at Meijers.5. I'm leaning toward Hilfiger, but I'd probably ATA if I didn't use on the previous Q.
6. easy.
I'm just a game show nerd.
