Tony Awards, Monkeys and More!

 Just a few fun photos from my weekend. The first two photos are from Maria Menounos' birthday party. She had a monkey, snake and a bird all joining the Hawaiian festivities. If you missed my Vine videos of DWTS' Derek Hough and Karina Smirnoff on the dance floor, click here or here.

On Sunday, I was asked to live tweet The Actors Fund Tony Party. It was such a fun night filled with incredible honorees from TV and film in addition to celebrating Broadway's biggest night.

Road to the Tonys, Day 2

I'm here in NYC!  Here's a quick video of me and my camerawoman extraordinaire, Annie, outside of the Beacon Theatre.  The good news is that Annie is running the camera tomorrow night.  The bad news is that I ran the camera today.  Sorry about that, kids.  Anyway, enjoy the video and are we sure the Tonys are being held here tomorrow?  There's no signage!!  Talk to the Oscars, it's all about self-promotion.

Road to the Tonys, Day 1

Okay, a quick peek at my accessories for Sunday night.  I won't let you look at the dress just yet, but help me pick out my clutch:  Should it be my BCBG/Max Azria clutch or my KC Malhan clutch?  The Malhan is my favorite one, but I think the BCBG clutch is going to work the best because it is simple.  My dress has some texturing to it that could make my whole outfit rather busy.

Enjoy my super short, less than a minute and a half video (It's worth watching for a second or two to see my Oompa Loompa tan.) and don't forget to leave any Tony red carpet questions in the comment section below:

Tony Awards Links

Here are all of the links to my Tony Awards coverage on Sunday.  Pick your favorite!

For the most up-to-date coverage:  Twitter.

You do not need an account to follow my feed.  I will be Tweeting photos and comments during the red carpet which starts at 5:30PM ET and ends at 7:15PM ET.  

For similar coverage if Twitter scares you and if the Facebook app isn't acting up that day:  Facebook.

Post-coverage and articles:  Starpulse (Everything will be linked here at Red Carpet Closet too.)

I am so happy this red carpet is actually happening as there was a threat of a protest by the Local One union and The Tony Awards producers.  And everyone knows......you don't cross a picket line......especially one in New York.  

Feel free to leave questions you would like me to ask on the red carpet.  Remember, Neil Patrick Harris is hosting. (Doogie).  Just had to say it.

During the show, I will be hanging here.  BroadwaySpace.com is throwing a Tony viewing party, so come join the fun. Tickets can be purchased here.
