FAME!
















I had a great weekend at Six Flags getting to be a part of the FAME talent search Sunday. I was originally asked to judge, then asked to appear as a special guest and hand out the "Big Award" at the end instead. Thankful that changed, because these talented acts were unbelievable! I would never have just picked one winner!


I also got to meet and hang out with the new group V-Factory...I think I am now officially into boy bands...they were incredibly talented and I am sure there will be huge things to come for them! It was funny, because one of the guys, Wesley, was actually gunning for me to try to work it out to have them be the talent entertainment for Mrs. America...sorry dude, but I don't have that kind of clout...I wish though, because they would be amazing! So Mrs. America Family, if you're listening, watching, what have you, V-Factory would love to be part of the Mrs. America Production, and I think audiences would love it! ;)
(Note: I have a soft spot for Jared, who chivalrously wanted to give up part of his wardrobe to keep me warm back stage, but they had to get onstage quicker than they thought, so I had to give his jacket back. Still, that couple minutes to defrost was a gift all it's own...his mom brought him up well! :) )

Special thanks to Brooke Gabbert of Six Flags, who was kind enough to think of me and invite me to the event, for checking in to make sure I was taken care of, and for the AWESOME golf cart escort! She works harder than anyone I know!!! To Carol out in Santa Monica, CA, for a terrific script, a perfect show, and all her kindness to me. To AJ, you rock the production stage like no other, and I am so impressed with your calm demeanor to make everyone feel like they were a star. To the stage hands and crew, thank you for treating EVERYONE so well. Six Flags Great America is impressive in itself, and the people who work there are the foundation of that success. You guys are incredible. Thank you for your support of me as well.

So I give you some shots of the event, and V-Factory!
A very special thank you and photo credit to Jason Pawlowski, for yet again, another great bunch of shots, and for his time and help. I am grateful beyond words!
PS - be sure to watch FAME in theaters September 25th - Asher, one of the guys of V-Factory, stars in the movie as well! :)
