Professional seat filler in NYC, ready for your show

I’m a New York City–based professional seat filler and audience member (and I’m in LA a lot, too). Producers, PR agencies and brands bring me in to fill seats, bring the energy and create content from the audience, behind the scenes and on the street. Here’s how we can work together.

Eatable × Popcorn for Every Plot Twist

Part 1 · Popcorn bribes at the Oscars (March 2025)

  • Eatable popcorn was in the Oscars “Everyone Wins” swag bag, and they overnighted a box to me in LA for Oscars Weekend
  • The mission: “butter up” my way into the Oscars as a seat filler. It didn’t work, but I handed out plenty of popcorn trying
  • A swag-bag Reel plus 10 Eatable Instagram Stories across the weekend

Part 2 · Celebration popcorn (April 2026)

  • I was a background extra in The Devil Wears Prada 2, and the only way to know if I made the cut was to watch it on the big screen
  • Eatable came along with two options: celebration popcorn if I was in it, consolation popcorn if I wasn’t
  • The verdict: celebration popcorn! I made it in the movie, on screen right next to Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep 🍿👠
