Float Like a Butterfly, Sting Like a Bee!
I was BEYOND thrilled when I was recently invited to do a photo shoot with American Legend Muhammad Ali.
What an amazing experience it was to be a guest in his private family home – very few people are invited to come this close and personal to the living legend.
There are few celebrities who can make so many people instantly starstruck, but Ali is certainly one of them. Not only was he amazing and still incredibly sharp and aware of everything despite his battle with Parkinson’s, but his wife and family were equally impressive, kind and welcoming.
They informed me that Ali likes blondes, and referred to me as his “princess!” It was all in good fun, and I even shared chocolate chip cookies with them in their kitchen after the shoot!
Attached is a personal photo from the set, I feel so LUCKY to have a picture like this.

What a Knockout! My new commercial for Knockout Energy Drink has just been released!
This was a fun shoot that I blogged about in a previous news item. Athough it was a bit frightening to have a closeup without makeup, I had a blast playing the nerdy girl with less than desireable looks and terrible hair – now you know what I REALLY look like away from the camera, LOL…at least I transform in the end

MNF promo

This will always be the best moment of my career for me personally, because I have always been a huge fan of Leslie’s work. He is a brilliant comedic actor, but he actually started in theater and dramatic acting. He is best remembered for his character in the “Airplane” and “Naked Gun” movies, and I was humbled to get to re-enact with him an updated version of one of the most famous film lines of all times, “Don’t Call Me Shirley.”
I did the set-up, he delivered the punchline! What an honor! The promo we did together was actually nominated for a Sports Emmy Award the year it aired.

Fan mail from the boys overseas

November 5, 2010 — As you know, I always love receiving letters and emails from our heroes overseas, and I was once again honored and humbled when I recently got an email from another the Warlords, 1-3 Attack Helicopter Battalion in Afghanistan, currently stationed at Bagram Air Base.
These handsome guys took a group picture with my calendar, which they somehow managed to get a hold of over there, and what fun it was to see their faces and read their gracious and sweet email!
They hope to be home for Thanksgiving, so please keep them all in your prayers. I am so blown away that these guys continue to thank me, when I am only doing what we ALL should be doing without hesitation…honoring THEM!!!!
Small girl, big gun…

May 27th, 2010 — OK, you’ve all asked, and I can now answer that YES, I FINALLY got to shoot the MiniGun! My fave guys at Dillon took me out to their private range where they train military personnel (and basically have a blast shooting at a bunch of fun stuff), and they let me loose!
After a brief round of instruction from Trey, our expert trainer, I was strapped into a Huey Helicopter and BOOM! I pressed the red buttons on the minigun and didn’t let go as a hail of ammunition flew out…needless to say, I released a lot of frustration on some very unfortunate vehicles in the desert that day!
Apparently, I was a pretty good shot, and I have to say it was one of the most exhilarating and fun things I’ve ever done in my life, not only shooting the gun, but just riding in an open helicopter with no door! I would do it again in a heartbeat!
Thanks to Veteran Pilot and War Hero, Cass for his expert flying…Here are some fun photos from that day (oh yeah, and we managed to fit in a quick photo shoot, too, those pictures will be posted soon…)

Current National TV Show

November 1, 2010 — This past year I’ve been working extensively with Real-Estate Expert and NY Times Best-Selling Author, Dean Graziosi, who produces multiple shows on how to make money or succeed in not only investment property, but other industries, as well.
I have been hosting a successful series of shows for Dean which are running nationally on TV as we speak, interviewing various authors and entrepreneurs who have best-selling books, seminars and/or Television shows. Recently, we worked with Than Merrill and the guys from “Flip My House,” as well as Pete Thomas, Season 2 At-Home Winner from Biggest Loser.
Through the shows we explore a variety of subjects from economic and business strategies to Effective Weight Loss and Nutrition Programs. Look for a major announcement coming in 2011 as we have teamed up with a major A-List Hollywood Celebrity whom I can’t yet name, for an exciting new project! I will be posting a video clip of some or our shows within the next week…
