Chuy Bravo, star of the E! channel’s Chelsea Lately show, has launched the Chuy Bravo Little Nugget Foundation in order to offer drug and alcohol rehabilitation treatments and facilities for those in financial need. The TV personality recently hosted a Hollywood party to celebrate the launch, featuring a live performance by Beach Girl5 and sponsored by Joico and Reality Cares.
Held at Hollywood’s My Studio, a unique facility that produces customized DVDs, the soiree was hosted by comedian and Leno regular Ross Matthews, and guests included actor and comedian Kevin Nealon, Dr. Drew, Stephanie Pratt of The Hills, former Miss USA Chrystle Stewart, Prison Break’s Camille Guaty and 2012 and Eastwick star Johann Urb. Foundation Vice President Tammy McCann reports that the V.I.P. gifts donated by Joico—the iconic Joico K-PAK Shampoo, Conditioner and Deep Penetrating Reconstructor trio—were the hit of the event! “The girls loved them, the guys loved them,” McCann reveals.
According to McCann, the first venture for the foundation will be to build a rehab center in Bravo’s hometown of Michoacán, Mexico. “It’s an area with a serious problem,” explains McCann. “The drugs are even in the elementary schools and the 11- and 12-year-old girls are turning to prostitution to pay for them. We’ve selected a beautiful spot for the center, and we’re working with the architects now. We’re hoping to help a lot of people and Joico has truly been instrumental in making it all possible.”

OVER 6,000 MICHAEL JACKSON AND THRILLER-FAN-ATICS COME TO L.A. LIVE TO PARTICIPATE IN WORLD RECORD ATTEMPT FOR LARGEST SIMULTANEOUS “THRILLER” DANCE
L.A. LIVE (October 24, 2009) – Over 6,000 enthusiastic and mostly made-up and costumed fans converged upon Nokia Plaza L.A. LIVE at 5:30 PM tonight to participate in a world record attempt for most people simultaneously dancing the Thriller routine.
Inspired by the upcoming release on Wednesday, October 28 of the feature film “Michael Jackson’s This Is It,” hundreds of thousands of fans worldwide are expected to have participated in this attempt to pay tribute to the King of Pop Michael Jackson and his iconic dance featured on the Thriller video.
Thousands of the participants at L.A. LIVE wore a specially created event t-shirt designed and distributed free to all fans on-hand by event sponsor TapouT. Fans also have the opportunity to purchase the official shirt at TapouT.com with a portion of the proceeds benefiting the City of Hope. The event was also sponsored by Clear Channel Radio Los Angeles which include stations, 102.7 KIIS-FM, 104.3 MYfm, Hot 92.3 and KOST 103.5 FM and hosted by a variety of their most popular on-air personalities and featured performances by popular recording artists Beach Girls 5.
Nokia Plaza L.A. LIVE made perfect sense to be the west coast headquarters for the stunt as it was across the street at STAPLES Center where Jackson rehearsed the final time before his untimely passing. It was also at STAPLES Center where the globally broadcast memorial tribute to Jackson was held on July 7.
The world premiere of “Michael Jackson’s This Is It” will take place at Nokia Theatre L.A. LIVE this Tuesday, October 27th at 6:00 PM with the first public showings of This Is It taking place on all 14 screens of the new Regal Cinemas L.A. LIVE Stadium 14 theatre beginning at 9:00 also on the 27th.

Just like fashion styles, music genres also make comebacks after a few years of trying times. It was just nine years ago when we said good bye to the era of boybands and girl groups and said hello to guitar riffs, rockstar anthems and guys with really, really shaggy hair. Now, after a lengthy and winding lull, boybands and girl groups are returning to the spotlight and ready to conquer the new phase in pop-music…
Old timers like the Spice Girls, New Kids on the Block and Backstreet Boys have reunited in the last two years to cater to dedicated fans of yesterday and now more and more new artists are coming out of the woodworks to cater to dedicated fans of today.
With fresh acts like V Factory, Wonder Girls, Varsity Fanclub and NLT, the end of this decade is in for a huge dĂ©jĂ vu and it’s about time! (more…)
