Foothills Sentry August 2021

Foothills Sentry Page 10 August 2021 Orange resident will tell the truth – or not – on TV game show Cowan Hills resident Carla Bu- chanan will appear on the ABC TV show, “To Tell The Truth,” Aug. 1 at 10 p.m. Buchanan, who describes her- self as a senior citizen who refus- es to let age slow her down, says being on the show gave her the opportunity “to be her true self, get out there and have some fun.” She has lived in the same house in the City of Orange for over 32 years, where she and husband Al- len raised three children. “We did a great job raising our three kids,” she says, “and now it is my turn to have a little fun!” A TV star for a day, Buchanan reports she had her own dressing room with her name on the door, complete with a large make-up mirror and a bathroom with a shower in it. She had a make- up artist and hair dresser, but her wardrobe was all hers. “They asked me to bring a suitcase of clothes that I thought might work, but they also had a complete wardrobe department,” she says. “I am proud to say that I brought the right clothes and shoes with me. That seems like a little thing, but most of the other people on the show ended up wearing clothes from the ward- robe department.” “To Tell The Truth,” hosted by Anthony Anderson, features a celebrity panel who have to pick the “real” person from a group of three. One of the three is sworn “To Tell The Truth,” and the other two use all the tricks that they can think of to fool the panel of ce- lebrities.
