“#’Ghosts’ Star Danielle Pinnock on Alberta’s Big Fan & Exploring Her Death<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

[Warning: The below contains MAJOR spoilers for Ghosts,<\/i> Season 1, Episode 9, \u201cAlberta\u2019s Fan.\u201d]<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ghosts <\/em>is diving deeper into the past of Harlem Renaissance singer Alberta (Danielle Pinnock) in the latest episode, \u201cAlberta\u2019s Fan,\u201d but along with introducing the spirit to her biggest fan (that\u2019s still alive), the installment makes way for new revelations about her mysterious death.<\/p>\n

While Sam (Rose McIver) and Jay (Utkarsh Ambudkar) are still busy with renovations, a peculiar historian shows up with hopes of building a connection to Alberta\u2019s spirit, unaware that she\u2019s roaming Woodstone\u2019s hallways. At first, they\u2019re under the impression that this man has created a successful museum in her memory, but as time goes on, Todd\u2019s (Rodrigo Fernandez-Stoll) stay reveals creepier details about him, such as his back tattoo of Alberta\u2019s face, the possession of a vial containing her toenails, and his obsession with sniffing her belongings that still remain in the mansion.<\/p>\n

Ultimately, his interest in Alberta pays off though because he goes the extra mile of drinking some old moonshine only to learn that it\u2019s poisoned. Luckily, Todd doesn\u2019t die and it allows the whole house to learn that Alberta\u2019s death may not have been a heart attack as previously believed by the other ghosts.<\/p>\n

Below, Pinnock opens up about exploring Alberta\u2019s story, hopes for future flashbacks with the singer, and her thoughts on Todd\u2019s ink tribute to her character.<\/p>\n

What were you most excited to learn about when diving deeper into Alberta\u2019s story for this episode? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Danielle Pinnock:<\/strong> Playing this character has been a dream come true. Alberta is hilarious, and she has some of the best one-liners in this series<\/a>. She\u2019s so boisterous and such a diva. But I love this episode so much because I think it\u2019s so important we get to peel back the layers and learn a little bit more about herself, her family, and how she ended up at the mansion, to begin with.<\/p>\n

Alberta is her own hype-girl most days in the home. Do you think she\u2019s slightly surprised to meet a fan even though she constantly claims she had many fans back in the day?<\/strong><\/p>\n

We joke about this often on the show, that the ghosts really do gaslight Alberta a lot. She\u2019s always like, \u201cI think I may have been murdered,\u201d and they\u2019re like, \u201cNo, girl, you died of a heart attack.\u201d She\u2019s like, \u201cNo, I actually think it was something else, but that\u2019s okay.\u201d And I think because she is so dramatic, and she\u2019s so over the top, it\u2019s the reason why none of the ghosts truly want to believe that it would\u2019ve been anything other than a heart attack.<\/p>\n

But in this episode, we get a little bit of intel there could have been some foul play that was involved in her death. And I think it\u2019s so cool that she becomes a viral sensation by the end of the episode. It\u2019s really the fame that she\u2019s always wanted. Now she\u2019s getting all the glory on Spotify and more. I mean, it\u2019s just incredible.<\/p>\n

Would you like to see Alberta\u2019s possible murder explored more on the show? Do you think there\u2019s a chance we\u2019ll find out what actually happ<\/a>ened to her? <\/strong><\/p>\n

First and foremost, we don\u2019t know what goes on with these characters until we [read the scripts]. So I have my own suspicions. I do feel like there was some foul play involved. But I\u2019m super excited for a potential flashback episode \u2013 whether that\u2019s this season or, knock on wood if we get a Season 2 \u2013 for them to really explore what was going on during the Harlem Renaissance with our girl Alberta.<\/p>\n

And also I have to give a shout-out to [episode writer] Lauren Bridges, who is an incredible writer\u2026 She\u2019s just super excited for everyone to get to know a little bit more about Alberta. And I love how they crafted this episode because so far we\u2019ve had flashbacks with Flower (Sheila Carrasco) and Isaac (Brandon Scott Jones), but [this time] they\u2019ve done it through the eyes of a fan, who is so incredibly played by Rodrigo Fernandez-Stoll, so creepily. I think he\u2019s absolutely brilliant and truly kills as Todd the historian.<\/p>\n

Speaking of Todd, Alberta\u2019s fan is an interesting guy. Do you think after meeting him she\u2019d prefer to not have fans, or is she willing to take him on in return for growing her popularity? <\/strong><\/p>\n

With those superfans, it could go either way. Because he is so out of the box, and because he is very creepy \u2013 I mean, the man has her old toenails \u2013 I think she probably would\u2019ve [preferred being] an indie singer with maybe a couple of people that liked her because Todd does go overboard. But I got to say it is a Catch-22 because if he wasn\u2019t as obsessed with her, we would never have known anything about this woman.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s also just such a testament to this time period. There are so many voices that we don\u2019t know, from those times. They may have been really famous. And obviously, we know the Bessie Smiths and the Ma Raineys and the Billie Holidays, but there are so many countless others. So I think it\u2019s really cool how they\u2019ve been able to spin history on its head for this. And I\u2019m really excited because I know that CBS has actually added an Alberta playlist to Spotify.<\/p>\n

While Todd does have Alberta\u2019s toenails, he also has a larger-than-life tribute to her in the form of a back tattoo. What was it like seeing your face on someone else\u2019s body? <\/strong><\/p>\n

That had me laughing because I remember being in my trailer and Gillian Chandler, who is a makeup artist on the show was like, \u201cOh, I just need to take a couple of selfies of you.\u201d And I was like, \u201cOkay, cool,\u201d thinking it\u2019s just for Instagram. Then I kept on hearing these rumors of, \u201cWe need to make a tattoo.\u201d And I was like, \u201cWait, what are they talking about?\u201d It wasn\u2019t until I got to set, and Rodrigo took his shirt off. I was like, \u201cOh my God, that\u2019s my face!\u201d<\/p>\n

It just blew my mind. It is probably the funniest scene that I\u2019ve ever been in, in my entire career. It was super surreal and Rodrigo\u2019s delivery is just absolutely incredible. I know for a fact it\u2019s definitely going to be a tweetable moment when he takes that t-shirt off and my face is on that man\u2019s back. I cannot wait. Social<\/a>s will definitely be going crazy for that [Laughs<\/em>].<\/p>\n

The happy facial expression of the tattoo is also hilarious, considering Alberta wants nothing to do with Todd.
<\/strong><\/p>\n

Oh no, never. And the thing that I also think is great about that scene is it\u2019s the first time that Jay has actually seen what one of the ghosts looks like. Like, \u201cOh wait, Sam actually isn\u2019t crazy. She actually really is seeing ghosts, for real.\u201d So I just think it\u2019s just a great crossover between the livings and the dead.<\/p>\n
