Ok so I'm a little behind ....

Ok so when I was a kid I was a procrastinator when it came to things I should do for myself.  So ... It should not surprise you that I am behind on my blog, and that I am going to blog about something super "Hollywood" instead of the show today!  I'll come back to the show soon ... but for now. Red Carpet time!


So the cast of 'Pretty Hurts' was asked to attend this A-M-A-Z-I-N-G event on the Paramount lot.  It was the 6th annual "Life Out Loud" event to raise funds for Lifeworks.  This party is billed as "Pride Season's Hottest Party" ... AND it supports the LGBT Youth of Los Angeles.  


So we get to the event and right away as we are walking up I hear someone chanting my name "Elizabeth!... Elizabeth!" I look up and Ahhhhhh it's the red carpet coordinator - My new best friend!  The red carpet was amazing and I only stumbled a wee bit; not in the literal sense ... really just tripping over my own tongue.  

Mix and Mingle at a celeb-filled, cocktail party with music, food, and a silent auction at Hollywood’s famed Paramount Studios NYC Streets. So there was mixing and mingling ... I guess I am maybe a mini-celeb?  Even if I'm not - I tried to dress like one!  Do you LOVE the dress?  Dolce & Gabanna honey! The flying nuns said I had a fantastic body .. who doesn't love it when the people dressed up to entertain love you!   At the event they were honoring 2 extraordinary young people for their positive impact  - Mike C. Manning, Real World D.C. and Human Rights Activist - Zach Wahls, The Youtube Phenom who addressed the Iowa State Legislature in support of his 2 moms and Gay Marriage Here I am with Korbin and Mike Manning! He was so amazing and his mom was also there to see him accept this award.   She was front and center and so proud and emotional.  I love supportive parents!   From there we tooled around bidding on amazing silent auction items, noshing and drinking.  I didn't win any of the items I bid on.  Always outbid!  We headed over to the Lexus photo booth ... what do you think of this photo?  Looks like a Lexus ad doesn't it? After enjoying the lexus photobooth and the Lexus Lounge, We took part in the Barbie Collector Experience (gooo Red Head Barbie!), and enjoyed a special performance by Cortés Alexander (Liza at the Palace, The Tonics). I must say that Cortez is an amazing singer and person! He was so sweet to come down and talk and take a photo with me!  It was all in all an amazing evening.  I am so happy to be there representing 'Pretty Hurts' but more important lending support for the Lifeworks program!
