Why is michelle in new york?
Anonymous ASKED

I would assume something work related, but she’s been there for a while so maybe it was just something she wanted to do as well.

Edit: I should also mention that she is working on a film with Liam Neeson and Julianne Moore. I knew that, but for some reason couldn’t recall when I initially answered the question. Thanks to @DowntonLive on twitter for the help!

Hey! Admiring Michelle Dockery has launched our Birthday Project 2012? Would you, or any of your tumblr followers like to help out?!

What video did the GIF of Michelle and Laura come from?

I think you can find it here

But I’m in the US, so I can’t watch the video to be sure. This is where I’m hearing it’s from.

I haven't watched the trailer.. but I thought I'd share my opinion.. If Julian Fellowes breaks them up again it will be unrealistic and really soap opera-ish, especially since the first two seasons span over 8 years or so.. There's plenty of troubles and challenges to be had with them as a couple.. Mary and Mathew are both strong and opinionated characters.. he doesn't need to do the together, breakup, together thing. What do you think?

I agree. From what I’ve read, there are going to be troubles, I don’t know if it’s going to be a breakup, makeup thing over and over again. However, it won’t surprise me if it goes that way too. I would like to see them face their problems and figure things out together. Come out on the other side of them stronger and more bonded. 

It can be something like a soap opera sometimes. Even Michelle agreed to that in her latest interview in Harper’s Bazaar. It’s a good way to add a lot of drama. 

I guess we’ll have to wait and see for sure how it goes, but I’m in total agreement with you. I really don’t want to see them ripped apart again. Especially not after all the time that has gone by. 

I'm curious if you know whether the woman sitting behind Michelle in some of the photos of her at the Burberry event is her sister. I thought I read somewhere that one of her sisters was there and I was thinking that woman looks a little like Michelle. Thanks in advance :)

Yes! That is Michelle’s sister. Her name is Joanne.

She is in this picture and this one

And thanks to the lovely in-flagrante, I have been informed that she is an actress and you can see her in a production of Antigone at the National Theatre. However, her last show is Saturday.

Thanks so much to Quibbler and in-flagrante for the info!

I couldn’t get all of the second message to fit, so I split it in to 2 and will put the  corresponding links below for easy access:

Hope that helps! Enjoy!

Any idea what shade of foundation Michelle Dockery wears? As in, something like MAC NW10 or NC15. I guess any brand would do...I could just cross reference. Any other information on her skin care or anything relating to how she maintains her amazing complexion would be very appreciated! Thank you in advance!

I’m not one to typically think about stuff like this with Michelle, but I did a search. There’s not a ton of info out there, but I did find this. It explains a little about  her look/makeup and how you can achieve it.

There’s also a little bit here

and if you’re interested, it tells you specifically which nail polish she’s wearing for Letterman as well as the eye shadow she’s wearing during Paris Fashion Week here.

That’s the best I can do. I hope there’s something useful there for you. Thanks!

Hello! I just see that Michelle is going to be Anna Karenina in a movie with Jud Law, it this true? Thanks :)

It is! You can read about it here

And check out both Michelle’s and Anna Karenina’s IMDB pages.

**Just an edit: I’m not sure if it’s being asked if Michelle is going to be in the movie, or playing Anna. She is not playing Anna, that is Keira Knightley. Michelle is playing Princess Miagkaya.**

I have the People magazine and I swear I never found MD's picture. I saw Elizabeth's but not Micheles....did I miss something. ?????
Anonymous ASKED

hmm…I don’t have the people magazine. I’ve only seen the picture online. I’m assuming if Elizabeth’s picture is there though, then Michelle’s should be too.

Can anyone who has the magazine tell help out and tell us which page she can be found on, if she is indeed in the printed magazine?

have Bafta award nominations been listed as of yet ???? i am really rooting for the EMMY AND THE GOLDEN GLOBE for best lead actress in DA. FUCK YEAH MICHELE DOCKERY IS THAT GOOD.
Anonymous ASKED

I don’t have the full list of all the nominees in general, but as far as Downton goes, they only received one, and it’s for Maggie Smith. It says:

‘Although “Downton Abbey” is a hit in the U.S., the period drama is not so popular in its native Britain. The only nomination was for Maggie Smith in her supporting actress role of the dowager countess. It is Smith’s fourth BAFTA TV nomination but could be the first that she wins.”

You can read the article here 

Maggie deserves it, but Im hoping Michelle gets a nomiation for one of the US award shows. I want her to get the recognition she deserves from them.
