Oprah's 24th Season Kickoff

"What a great day"

Waking up in my hotel room refreshed and anticipating beautifying Jennifer Hudson for Oprah's 24th SEASON KICKOFF. The crowd was electric, the staff was professional and on point for this great day.



I had the opportunity of being on stage for Jenn's rehearsal earlier that afternoon and recall feeling the atmosphere was electic and the weather was perfect. Even during rehearsals the crowd was massive and highly anticipating this event. Chicago had a front row seat into history.

I remember thinking as I looked over the masses of people that, OPRAH shut down Michigan Avenue....enough said. Jennifer gave an energy filled performance and the crowd responded!

My "Dr. Hauschka Beauty Event"

The invitations were sent out, flight arrangements were made, the caterer was secured and it finally was the day that I would become an Ambassador of Dr. Hauschka!

I was introduced to their amazing skincare through one of my favorite clients Jennifer Hudson. We were traveling heavily on the Dreamgirl Tour and we needed a product that would nourish and keep her skin camera ready and Dr. Hauschka's products did not disappoint.

It's getting closer to event time and the doorbell rings, and I'm greeted by Dr. Hauschka's Director of PR, a camera crew and a Dr. Hauschka Esthetician to walk us through the event. Without wasting any time the camera crew set up and I was ready for my close up and on-camera interview. So glad my lil Sis Lutonya from IndustryBuzzZ.com, who by the way is a pro in front of the camera, was standing by rooting me on and giving out FAB tips to get me through.

One by one all of my friends started arriving and feasting on an array of organic foods just like all of Dr. Hauschka's skincare products. So we finally got in position to learn the skincare "Protocol" by a hands on demonstration, which we all loved and needed. All of my friends work hard so a lil pampering is just what we all needed.

Overall, we all enjoyed our experience and I was happy to share a glimpse of why I love Dr. Hauschka's products. At the end of the event we all had a fabulous time and none left empty handed! Another delightful day of beauty.

Backstage Pass to "my" UPTOWN Magazine Photoshoot

I was at a photoshoot when I received the email from UPTOWN Magazines NY Editor stating, "we have been following your career for sometime now and would like to feature you in our August Issue." I was boiling over with JOY! So as the weeks rolled by we set up a date along with a photographer to capture the moment.

Day of shoot every emotion crept in from excitement, thankfulness and nervousness! When I pulled up at the fabulous studio the first happy face I saw was my hairstylist Rukey Styles, who unbeknowest to her eased my worry a bit. As we got closer to the studio the butterflies were definitely flying!

As I looked around and saw "my" hairstylist, fashion stylist and Michael the photographer running around preparing the day for me, reality sunk in, the cameras are now being turned on me....LIGHTS, CAMERAS, TIA!
