A Rose Of Thanks

As most of you know, The Golden Globes were last Sunday. In conjunction with the awards ceremony, there are always fabulous gifting suites. What is a gifting suite you may ask? Well, it's basically a one stop shop for new, hot items that are not even on the market yet. People who have new products and want to promote them sign up for the gifting suite so that they can get their fabulous products into the hands of celebrities. They are so much fun! Not to mention you get a lot of great things for free. All they want is for you to take a picture with the product and give it a try. If you like it, they hope you will tell more people about it.

I went to a gifting suite for the Golden Globes at the fabulous London Hotel (I love this hotel!) Being that one of my goals for the the New Year is to keep you, my fans, more up to date with what's going on in my life via video clips and blogs... I decided to take my little hand held Kodak HD camera to the suite with me. I took a lot of videos some of which I plan to share with you! It's always nice to take someone with you to these events and who better to take than my stylist, Nola Roller? We had a blast, got some great free stuff, and made lots of new friends! I hope you enjoy!

One of the first clips that I will post is "A Rose of Thanks". My new friend Matthew Hunt was there getting celebrities to color a card with a rose on it so that he could send it to the troops. How can you say no to that!? Matthew was such a sweetheart and I really enjoyed chatting with him. So he told me all about the organization and even offered to let me draw my very own rose, which I plan to do. This is a very simple gesture that will go a long way. I hope that whomever gets my rose is blessed by it. So here is a clip of me, Matthew, and Nola sending love to the troops with "A Rose of Thanks".

Writing Sessions & DWTS

It's a brand new year and I am very excited that you all are going to be around to share it with me. This year is going to be filled with lots of new opportunities and adventures! I look forward to seeing many of you along the way.

This was really my first week back in LA and boy was it a busy one. I had about 5 writing sessions this week which were all different and amazing! I wrote with Brett Boyett & Stewart Cararas (both pictured to the left), Josh Skinner, and Russ Ali. Tons of fun and a lot of creative energy. I actually took a camera into one of my sessions so that I could share it with you. So be on the lookout for a video clip from Friday's writing session. I am enjoying the creative process... I always seem to surprise myself. :) We are currently looking and writing for the next single. This is a fun and exciting process (not to mention a little stressful). I have you, the fans, in mind throughout the whole process. I'm thinking of how I can surprise you and relate to you all at the same time. Gotta keep the fans happy!!!!! Right??? So stay tuned for new music, video clips and blogs. My goal this year is to stay as connected to my fans as possible. I am very excited!

There are so many things that I am looking forward to doing this year: more writing, more television, and performances. There will be some exciting opportunities for you to get involved with and have some fun. Can't tell you just yet but it will be very soon!!!! I look forward to staying connected with you all. Thanks for all the follows on Facebook and Twitter. I am starting to get more into it, thanks for being patient!!!! I know you all want to know as much about me as possible so I am going to start sharing some of those things with you. As many of you know I love to cook so keep an eye out for some cooking tips and videos from me. I cook all the time so this should be fun!!!! I also try to stay healthy and fit, so I may be able to throw in the occasional workout tip as well.

I want to make it my business year to help through my charity as well as help another artist. So maybe sometime this year I will introduce you to an up and coming artist, whom I am a huge fan of. I know I can always rely on my fans to be HONEST!!!!! That's why I love ya'll so much! LOL!

Thank you for wanting to know me more as a person and an artist. This will be a fun and amazing year!!!!! We are off to a great start!!!

P.S. Thanks for trying to get me on DWTS... It's as if you guys can read my mind!!!!!

Disco Diva Bash & One Heartland Updates

Hey All,

I know that you know the new single "Strobelight" is out and available on iTunes so I am just here to give you an update. First, thank you so much for your support! I love all the tweets and messages I get throughout the day about how much you love it! Thanks to all of you who have already downloaded it and are jamming to it in the gym or in your car or wherever!!!! Some of you may have already heard it on satellite radio. I know DMX is spinning it a lot. Thanks DMX!!!! June 1st is the official radio impact day and that's when you will be able to request it on your station. On June 8th, the brand new remixes will be available on iTunes for download... I think there are 6 more! I couldn't be more excited!!!! This takes me back to the release of '8th World Wonder' when I heard it for the first time on the radio, I almost ran off the road!!! LOL! I couldn't be more pleased with your response to this record. Thank you for your support!

As most of you know I will be hosting a party in Nashville, TN at the War Memorial Auditorium on June 19th called the "Disco Diva Bash... You Bring The Diva!" (Presented by Issima Skin Care) Things are moving along in a beautiful way. We just announced that vitaminwater will be sponsoring and pimping out our VIP Lounge. Each VIP ticket comes with a gift bag full of goodies that will include a SPECIAL AND EXCLUSIVE gift from me. I know that Nashville may be far for some of you but if you can make it we would love to see you at the party... with your Diva!!!!!! I also want to let you know that we have 10 Super VIP tickets. These tickets include 2 gift bags, a gift basket of wine and goodies from Bonefish Grill, entry to the party and the vitaminwater zero VIP lounge, as well as an intimate dinner party with me. These tickets are going for $1000 each and there are only a few left. I want to offer them to my fans who can raise $1000 for the event. You can get one of these tickets!!!!! You just need ten people to donate $100 or 20 people to donate $50 to the cause and you can have dinner with me! If you are up for the challenge it will be 2 nights to remember. Since Nashville is my home town I want everyone to know that when you make a donation to Camp Heartland, a portion will be donated to the flood victims to help them get back on their feet. Every little bit helps. I know they appreciate your help and so do I. For those of you who have already made your donation please know that it is so appreciated and you will receive a thank you letter in mail. :-)

Don't forget if anyone wants to volunteer for camp, you can!!! I am going to Malibu Camp (August) and the Minneapolis Camp (June) this year. If you have nothing to do this summer break I would love to see you at camp. Go to www.oneheartland.org for more information.

For those of you following me on Twitter, let's be friends on Facebook too! I would like to keep you as up to date as possible. I hope you all had a great weekend and are gearing up to have a fab holiday weekend! I am going home to be with my friends and family. I can't wait! Oh yeah and one more thing.... send me your questions and comments! I will do my best to get you a response!

Lots of Love,
