Talk:Piper Perabo

Birth date
I've reverted the birth date (1977) instead of 1976. IMdB uses 1976, but a lot of other internet sources give 1977. I've already (beginning of August) asked IMdB to check their birth date. Until I have a response, let leave 1977. If you have other autoritative source, please cite it here. Cate 18:55, 6 September 2005 (UTC)

I checked the birth ceritifcates at Rootsweb.com There is a Piper Lisa Perabo - born October 31, 1976. No question this is her - her mother has a Norwegian name (Ulland), the middle name matches, etc. and there are no other Piper Perabos on the site (I would sincerely doubt that there are other Piper Perabo's anywhere in the US or elsewhere). The site also lists a Texas birthplace - I think there is some big mistake with the New Jersey birthplace info - probably started in one place and got reposted all over the net.Vulturell 08:16, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

Vegetarianism.
I've removed the reference to her being vegetarian, and replaced it with "enjoys fishing," as, recently, on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, she stated that she fishes and eats what she catches.


 * Again, I'll take it off, because she eats fish. Here's your proof.  65.189.210.173 22:54, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Portuguese?
Her father, George William Perabo, is Portuguese
 * Indeed. Is there a source? Zeppocity 03:29, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah, there's a source. It's called "Perabo is a Portuguese name." 65.189.210.173 22:52, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
 * That doesn't make him Portuguese though, it would still need a source on that. John Hayestalk 12:54, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
 * When promoting Imagine me and you on the Craig Ferguson show, she talked about her Portugese grandmother and her Norwegian grandmother. 130.243.172.24 19:57, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
 * "Perabo" is not a Portuguese last name, and no one named "Perabo" has ever immigrated to the United States from Portugal. Pretty much all "Perabos" moved to the U.S. from Prussia and/or Germany (see for example Ernst Perabo), including Piper's great-grandfather (the Frederick Joseph Perabo mentioned here is Piper's great-grandfather). I don't know where the Portuguese name story is from. All Hallow&#39;s Wraith (talk) 15:56, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

Cheaper by the Dozen 3
I'm planning on removing this from her filmography. There is no sequel in the works, and even if a script is made she has no commitment to it. Mothh 21:03, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Sexuality
Roles aside, I see frequent mention that she is bisexual in real life. Is this corroborated or refuted by any statement from her? --24.47.158.216 (talk) 10:21, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

Currently persuing a nice guy much like Al Ciaccia a guitar player and buisness owner from Colorado. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.190.69.170 (talk) 20:49, 5 July 2010 (UTC)

piper and jodhi
Is it me, or do Piper Perabo and Jodhi May look the same? they have a very big similarity in their faces. 173.51.203.228 (talk) 22:56, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

Single Spaced & Knuckleface Jones roles
I'm correcting the names of her roles in these short films. In Single Spaced the role is called The Dame in the original credit titles (watch it here). It's not Giant Squid (?!!) as it was given before, copied from IMDB. Seems someone gave random names for the roles in IMDB. In Knuckleface Jones, i'll change "That girl" to a more descriptive role name - "Orange-dressed angel". I couldn't find the movie to check the original credit titles - if someone can, please give the original role title. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.130.136.38 (talk) 20:59, 28 August 2009 (UTC)

Giant external link?
Might consider changing this so it can be embedded within her personal information such as Michael Jackson, Elton John just to name a few. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.197.211.243 (talk) 00:22, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

Picture
So was there a contest to pick the worst possible picture of Piper Perabo? 98.216.159.236 (talk) 17:40, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Why, do you have a worse picture? All Hallow&#39;s Wraith (talk) 10:20, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
 * I have to agree, that picture looks almost nothing like her. I linked to this page, saw the picture and thought "no, that's not her". I eventually came back to the page and had to do a double-take before I realized that it *was* her. 67.10.113.37 (talk) 21:41, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

Pronunciation
Should there be a hint on how to pronounce her last name? You can hear her say it herself in this YouTube video, for example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jHvuLHyErxY --Morel (talk) 10:31, 15 October 2012 (UTC)

Picture
As already happened, we are having a problem with the picture. This version uses a professional photo, clearly made by a photographer in a studio. This version uses a cropped amateur photo. I do think that the first one is better. What do you think and why? --Lucas (talk) 23:23, 15 October 2014 (UTC)
 * As per above, if there are no objections, I will put the professional photo instead of the amateur one in a few days. Thanks. --Lucas (talk) 04:44, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Done. --Lucas (talk) 06:10, 22 November 2014 (UTC)

Covert Affairs
I hate to see the cancellation, I thought it was a great series. I think perhaps if the Network would have advised the Public on the scheduling of the weekly show viewership would have been doubled. I know I waited for months for any news of when the series might be running, Only to not have any info available. I think perhaps the Brainiacs should do a little more PR work as advertising the schedule..

Perabo is a Friulian surname, most likely
Or else, Lombard. Perabo and Perabò. I'm not saying that Piper Perabo is not of German ancestry, but her surname seems to be from northern Italy. 62.99.89.51 (talk) 10:47, 19 October 2022 (UTC)
