Ok, moving on...

June 21st G-Volution performed at Make Music New York where we literally performed on the street in Midtown NYC at Tramway Plaza on 59th and 2nd, and then moved on to Time Square. We performed one hip hop, one "music video"- type jazz number, and one salsa number. This was an experience unlike any other, especially in the Times Square location where we performed for the hundreds of people that were just passing by- it was so fun!!
The G-Volution T-shirts we wore were sponsored & created by Untuckable.com, a brand new apparel company who produces one- of-a-kind designs not only on t-shirts but other merchandise as well. You can get them to totally customize a t-shirt for you, in any color and style you want from American Apparel. They are located in Brooklyn, NY but ship anywhere in the US. You ROCK UNTUCKABLE!!!
After performing for a few hours in the blazing sun (and getting some nice color, may I add) my sis Liana and I headed off to the Hamptons- my first trip there!! I was so excited, but also nervous to reach our destination on time and beat the weekend traffic...and we actually did, traveling at 2:00 on a Saturday afternoon. We were guests at the American Heart Association's Heart of the Hamptons Gala, sponsored by Stephen Adler of Charity Brands. A big "thank you" to Barbara Poliwoda of AHA, and Stephen Adler, who also was my personal host for the evening. Seconds into arriving at the Gala, I stepped onto the Red Carpet and gave numerous media interviews, and of course took many photos...totally my cup of tea ;-)
Here are some media pics of me on the Red Carpet: Hamptons.com and SmugMug.com and more SmugMug.com with Dottie Herman. The best part of the whole night, was when Stephen Adler introduced me to Christie Brinkley as Ms. New York! How honored was I?! Christie was so sweet, and congratulated me on my title. It totally made my night! I've always been a big Christie Brinkley fan because she's not only beautiful, but quite down to earth and follows a healthy lifestyle as do I.
Our stay in Southampton was sponsored by Michael Wudyka of the Enclave Inn and arrangements made by the wonderful manager John LoCascio. Liana and I had an amazing time in the Hamptons, and ended our stay with a visit to the Regular's Music Cafe also owned by Michael Wudyka...and I posed with my favorite celeb, Elvis! Michael was a great host, showing us around Regulars and providing us with a comfy 2- bedroom suite for the weekend- thanks Michael and John!
Check the official Ms. New York Blog for more details of my fab Hamptons trip, and more pics!What am I doing now? Well, now it's time for mega- preparations for the Ms. United States Pageant...I will be there in approximately 11 days, OMG!!! So much to do still, but I feel ready and excited to compete! I will definitely keep you all posted here, on the Ms. NY blog, and on Twitter of course.
Love & World Peace to you all!!
