Heys.
So I performed at a party for the television show The Party Planner with David Tutera for Discovery Channel here in the US about a month or so ago.

The episode will be airing (again, in the US, I dunno about any place else) at 11am on Tuesday May 31.
I don't expect to see much of me because I believe the show is only a half hour, maybe an hour...but there you have it.

TA!
Pele

I *would* watch it, but I don't have cable. And I don't think my mate Jon would apreciate being woken up that early. Way cool, congrats!

Can someone record it and upload it to HOP? I don't know quite how the technology works, but I know it can be done.

I'd really like to see Pele doing her thing.

Upload it to HoP??
Oooohhh...that's a scary idea.
FF, get me your mailing addy when you can and by the end of June, when we have craploads of shows being video taped I can find some way to convert it to a format you can watch along with those cd's I promised you. I know I am sending a copy to HoP central (one that has been editted for content...don't want to hurt Malcolm and Chris' innocent eyes! ).

The theme was fire and water to show how "hot" the guys were (not really. They were short and not cute really).

They had a rain machine for water and they projected images of the guys on the water, and I supplied the fire

posting it on HoP is scary, but having it shown on national tv isn't?

Just struck me as funny

Congrats on the programme!

Well, I figure due to time it is being shown that 90%, if not more, of the people who will actually get to see it in this country are actually desperate housewives who watch the dope operas these guys are on, so nope, not scary in the least.

Having *anything* up here on HoP = scary.

But I wanted to post it for those few who actually might get to catch is, as I do not think there will be enough of me spinning in it for anyone to criticise.

Silly, I know..but true.

I'm so recording it. Thankfully I have DVR so I won't have to try and wake up early. But yeah, my mom and I watch the party planner alot, so to see an episode with you in it will be so awesome.

Yeah, munkypunks, EST...but it might be adjusted for each zone. In the phone message, and then on the website it just said 11am.

Ash, I dunno if it will be awesome. Will have to see what the editting team did with it before I can say that. I know they have alot of footage.

They filmed me...not kidding, unloading my car, interviewing with the fire marshall, doing a gear check, being interviewed by David Tutera, when we had our car towed and the issues that came from that and a really small portion of the performance where David insisted on lighting my poi from a tea light candle, my doing really basic poi because the space I had was *lim-it-ed* and doing a poi hug on him. Of all that, who the hell knows what they will use, or how spacey they will make me look.

DVR must be nice! It's going to be me and my VCR that morning. lol

So...for those who missed it...well, if anyone watched and blinked they might have as well.

There ya go.

Loved the costume, and my mom said to tell you that you looked wonderful, and very beautiful. And personally, I think they aught to have given you some more room, and put more of you in the episode. But it was cool finally getting to see you, and there was a least one shot of you that would have made a great screen shot.

Anywho's, love ya girl
