As devastated as Rachael is by the upcoming series finale of her favorite show, @[*The Sopranos*](http://www.hbo.com/sopranos/?ntrack_para1=leftnav_category0_show0), it's an even more emotional time for Jamie-Lynn Sigler, who has played Meadow Soprano for almost 10 years. "These people have meant so much to me," she tells Rachael about her co-stars. "They really are my extended family. Robert, who plays my little brother, is one of my best friends in the world. Edie and Jim have influenced me so much. They've really made me who I am today in a lot of ways. Edie's like a cool aunt, the one who'll give you the little secrets. She's so down to earth, she's so warm, so loving and so talented. And Jim is like Tony Soprano in the sense that he looks out for everybody. He feels like he has to take on this role where he has to take care of everyone. Every Friday he would bring sushi for the whole crew. He would bring in masseuses so everybody could get massages between shots." "Bada-bing!" says Rachael. So, what's going to happen to Jamie-Lynn's character? "She's growing into a wonderful young woman. She's had the most opportunities out of anyone to get out of this family and this life, but she keeps coming back, so that's sort of her story..." Jamie-Lynn admits that one of her real-life hobbies is rather mundane in comparison to her volatile TV family. "I was on Broadway a couple years ago," she explains, "and I needed some hobbies that would keep me quiet so I could rest my voice. My dresser Jessica taught me how to crochet. This was the first thing I ever made. You can tell I was a beginner because it gets thinner and wider at certain points!" In addition to her very first crochet project, Jamie-Lynn brings along one of her favorite items -- @[Jivago 24k perfume](http://www.neimanmarcus.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod26950067&parentId=cat9590740&masterId=cat000417&index=0&cmCat=cat000000cat000285cat4830738cat000417cat9590740). "I've worn the same perfume since the 7th grade. My friend's mom wore it and I was always obsessed with it. I can't not wear it. It's my smell -- everyone will know I'm there just by smelling me in the hallway." Jamie-Lynn has been told more than once that she looks like actress Marisa Tomei. She tells Rachael about one particularly uncomfortable time when the person making the comparison was her gynecologist! (Click on the video for the story!)
