Jessica Paré goes from Suck (the vampire movie) to sucking face with Don Draper
Canadian actor Jessica Paré has had a very good year. Last September, she was in town plugging her film Suck (a vampire flick that hit right at the cusp of Edward/Bella mania and the first to sell at TIFF), and two weeks ago, she got engaged to Don Draper. The Montreal-born starlet stars in Mad Men as Megan, Draper’s secretary at Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce. In the season’s final episode, Megan goes on holiday with Don to babysit the Draper kids in California and woos both the children and Don with her French lullabies (the character is also from Montreal).
So while we ponder a Rob Ford victory and wait for another season of Mad Men to start up, Paré is flitting around Santa Monica and getting to make out with Jon Hamm. Perhaps the only bad moment she’s had recently was the awkward kiss we shared with her at TIFF. But, by degrees of separation, we’re pretty sure that means we’ve also kissed Hamm. We’ll take it.
