03.2008: what a difference four months makes…two thousand eighty hundred and eighty eight little hours…believe it, i’ve clocked nearly three thousand hours of time since i’ve last updated my site, and i am proud to say every second was worth it. over the past three thousand hours, i saw mexico, i saw france, i saw a life-size rick owens with no underpants. i adopted the title of choreographer, changed my personal opinion about the french, and officially accepted the title to be the future mrs mcpherson. amen to that!

11.2007:
who needs halloween when there’s Honeyshed? after two months of
filming new episodes for the new online network Honeyshed, i have been
Eazy-E twice (sans geri-curl and with), count chocula, a ski-masked bandit
fit with gleaming golden grill, a too hot to trot mariachi member, a moustached
man, and a deep knee bending babe in hot wheels high tops—the colour
palette alone would bring sir george clinton to his knees. and did i mention
they are paying me to do this? hats off to the brilliance that is Brian
Beletic, and everyone warming their worn hands under the shed. they’re
making the best rum cannonball in town. check us at Honeyshed.com. we’re
on the air chief.
i also recently clocked in with a Target commercial choreographed by Michael
Rooney featuring John Legend, an Adidas shoot, Esprit campaign, Apple
campaign, 365 Plays/Days at the fantastic Theatre of Note in Hollywood,
the cabaret show at El Cid, and an episode of Mad TV. viewers can watch
me uh, shake it with the first lady and mr. obama bin laden on Fox.. who
knew the dems were secret fly girls at heart? oh hillary, whew, that girl…
