Farrell Fan Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 The announcer on the Romeo + Juliet telecast called her Sterling HillTEEN, Can that be correct? Link to comment
Balanchinomane Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Yes - rhymes with Saltine. During the intermission of the R+J premiere 2 years ago, I overheard a man refer to her as Paris Hilton's sister. A woman interrupted - and said her name is HYLTEEN. The man said to her "How do you know?" The woman replied "Because I'm her mother." Link to comment
Farrell Fan Posted May 23, 2009 Author Share Posted May 23, 2009 Thanks for the unimpeachable source, Balanchinomane! Link to comment
rg Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 not that further info is needed but when SH was given the J.Levin award her father was introduced as hilTEEN. Link to comment
carbro Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 I've heard the dancer refer to herself as Hil-TEEN, but then, she probably learned that from the woman cited by Balanchinomane. Link to comment
bart Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Am I right in assuming that "Sterling" is pronounced in the conventional fashion? I mean, it's not Ster-LING or anything, is it? Link to comment
cinnamonswirl Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 She says her own name at the end of the interview: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQB2iRvdptk Link to comment
Farrell Fan Posted May 29, 2009 Author Share Posted May 29, 2009 Thanks, cinnamonswirl. She does not accentuate the second syllable in her name, so it's very subtle. Link to comment
