Tonight is THE NIGHT! After months of preparation, tonight I get to put my dancing shoes to the test! My dance partner, Clifton Pierce, and I got up early yesterday to do a little preview. My dress is solid gold — courtesy of designer Vanessa Vinci. I posted a photo above, but you can check out the full performance here. Then last night we did a run through with all[…]
I am so excited for tonight’s premiere of “New Moon!” I’m a huge Twilight Fan — have read all the books — in fact, I finished the first one on a plane, so was able to watch the movie immediately after I put it down! Tee hee — what can I say? I’m a fan. A lot of people get put-off by the whole sci-fi vampire aspect of the story.[…]
Think Caviar is out of your reach? Think again — just had a heavenly lunch at the new Bistro Niko on Peachtree in Buckhead. A two ounce tin of fresh Irish caviars is served with brioche croutons for just 14 bucks. Ad a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and you have yourself what I lik to call “heaven on a plate!” Joining me were fellow TV blonds Rhonda Rowland and[…]
I have the best job! Look at the fun package that greeted me yesterday when I got in to work. The balloon house is part of story line in the Disney/Pixar movie “Up” out on DVD today. Don’t the balloons match my new yellow sweater nicely? My stylist girlfriend Evonya Easley found it for me. Can I tell you what a hero having this DVD is going to make me[…]
After months of rehearsals we’re now down to the LAST TWO WEEKS before the Celebrity Dance Challenge on November 19th. I’ll be dancing to a the Beyonce song “Freakum Dress” — yikes! If you like what you see, I’d love for you to vote for me — it only costs a dollar! It’s all to support Edin, a charity that helps to combat eating disorders. And I’d love for you[…]
Okay, not really naked! But close. Check it out! Saturday night we had a special Halloween edition of Better Mornings Atlatna. And I got to dress up as Lady Godiva on horseback with the folks from Medieval Times! Wearing a body stocking on camera was a challenge, to say the least. Fortunately, I had help from my stylist, Vanessa Vinci and my beautiful make up artist, Zavia Ross. Vanessa made[…]
Ladies Who Launch is my new inspiration! I attended their annual conference here in Atlanta recently. They invited me to speak about my televsion career along with my girlfriends Tammie Reed and Holly Firfer. You know what we realized? No matter what career they choose, women get to a point where they’re ready to put “quality of life” first. Many of the women I met launched businesses and second careers,[…]
Okay, this you have to check out this out! I’ve teamed up with some other well-known Atlantan’s for an event called “The Celebrity Dance Challenge”. For me, that means wearing high heels and fishnets and shaking my grove thing to Beyoncé’s “Freakum Dress”. Yikes! And to add even more pressure, we’ve invited the public to keep tabs on us as we practice. Please come take a look at what’s going[…]
Recently on the show I’ve been faced with a new wardrobe challenge, in the form of a segment called “Dirty Jobs”. Often I need to borrow the right equipment for the job. Like when I tagged along on with a landscaping crew, I borrowed a pair of hip-wader boots from my photographer. Little did I know how deeply I’d get stuck in the mud! When you watch the video, keep[…]
