2009 in Review: May

May was another month I had to whittle down the photos because my month was jam-packed, but this time my work was based in LA. It was nice not to have to travel for once which is a rarity in my world.

I started working for a media outlet, Focus Hollywood, doing red carpet interviews. Unfortunately, the outlet was a victim of this lousy economy, but my interviews are still up. And yes, I am still looking for a media outlet for 2010. I miss doing my regular gigs. This event was A Time for Heroes at Universal Studios' Backlot.

One of my standing jobs with LawInfo. I have worked with these amazing people since 2008 and it is always a pleasure to head to San Diego to work with them. Notice my footwear....

The episode that started it all for The Web Files with Tay Zonday. We filmed at one of my favorite cupcake places in LA called Big Sugar. If you haven't seen Episode 1 in awhile, check it out here .

I am sure I was the envy of every guy out there when I covered the MAXIM Hot 100 party. It was one of the most challenging red carpets I have ever covered because it was filled with reality "stars" and C-listers. Oh, the gossip from this night! If you want to know the less than glamorous part of the red carpet, I will happily give you the scoop in exchange for a Coffee Bean tea latte.

The super fun GeekOut event with my EP, Sandra Payne. This was the event where we met Tay Zonday and the cast from The Crew where they agreed to be interviewed. Thank goodness our enthusiasm didn't scare them too much.
Come back tomorrow where June brings MJ coverage, more red carpet, and a day at the wax museum.

Maxim Hot 100 Party

 Hi Everyone!

          It's been a busy week preparing for my new show, The Web Files, but I am back with more red carpet archives. 

         Covering red carpets for parties, particularly ones like the Maxim Hot 100 Party, require a different type of red carpet dress.  Conservative is not the way to go, but I still have to look appropriate on-camera. So, I chose my Bebe kimono dress in a blue and lavender silk for the May 13, 2009 event.  Originally, the dress was bought for a night out on the town in the Big Apple to see an acquaintance, Kristin Chenoweth, perform in The Apple Tree on Broadway in 2006.  In fact, you can see the dress peeking out in the photo underneath my big winter coat.  The dress was perfect for Maxim's Hot 100 Party because it was the right length, but still showed off a bit of strategic cleavage.  I went simple with the accessories, with a choker from Express from the late 1990's, believe it or not.  The bracelet is a cubic zirconia flex bracelet from Aldo Accessories and the shoes....yes, there they are again, my Guess strappy silver sandals.  It's easy to recycle accessories and dresses even from years past. Keep things simple and classic.  It's a surefire strategy!

       The night was filled with a ton of reality show veterans.  If you are a fan of Dancing with the Stars, The Kardashians, The Hills, The Bachelor or America's Next Top Model, then this was the party for you.  It was also a night of hot Maxim models dressed in itsy, bitsy pieces of cloth.  The cameramen for this event were very happy.  Trust me, lots of eye candy for the men.  

      Next week brings more fashion from closet with the premiere of Woody Allen's next movie, Whatever Works, the second episode of my show, The Web Files, and a shoot with Dance Channel TV.  Until next time, that's what's in my closet.
