  "account": "At the recent Actor Awards, actress Jenna Fischer admitted to pretending to be Connor Storrie’s publicist to keep photographers from taking pictures of him. The “Heated Rivalry” star found himself surrounded by press as he was heading out the door after accepting an award alongside “Abbott Elementary” star Janelle James. Fischer recounted the incident on her podcast “Dinner’s On Me,” sharing that a photographer approached her and asked if she was Storrie’s publicist. She replied that she couldn’t grant the photo request, explaining that she needed to get him to his car. Fischer admitted that she had already called his car, which was true, as he was waiting for it. Actor Awards showrunner Jon Brockett mentioned that including Storrie among the presenters was a no-brainer, noting that the “Heated Rivalry” star was a dream to work with and had recently hosted “Saturday Night Live.”",
