Hot Latino Teens, (Marketing towards)

The multicultural Gonzalo Perez (Sharon (MA) H.S. '93, Syracuse '97, MTV NY '03, MTV LA 'current) shares a multisexual encounter with Bobby P. (Danbury (CT) H.S. '93, Syracuse '97, Philanderer ' current).

Gonzalo Perez strikes fear in the hearts of Telemundo and Shakira, as MTV's hired gun to climb inside the psyche of bicultural latino teens.

As a featured guest at last weeks Latino Billboard Awards, reporters hounded him for interview bytes, many of which turned up on the AP and Yahoo's homepage.
"Los hispanos son un grupo multicultural, abierto de mente y que vive entre dos mundos diferentes afirmo' Gonzalo Perez, director de investigaciones.....

The Intern Show: Parc Edition



(If a photo slideshow does not appear above, only white space, click here)

We continue to celebrate April as "call-rollers' month":
Rapparound PR interns Ali Lewinter (CYJ Daled '01, Westboro HS (MA) '04, Ithaca '08) and Melissa Peterson (HenHud H.S. (NY) '04, Ithaca '08) aced their "live fire" combat exercises at (white)hotspot/client Parc and Les Deux last night. (Thur 4.19). They apparently carry more cache than a CBS star.

To honor the occasion, Rumer Willis (videotaped at birth in Demi's hoo-hah '88) showed with 6 friends (inside) and 11 friends (paparazzi) waiting patiently outside. The girls from luxury drink Motley Bird field tested their drink with multiple bottles at Les Deux, Nefarious Designs' Jason Hoehn channeled Sanjaya and debuted a stark, short coif, and manager Phil Viardo shared the good news that our friends at Hollyscoop.com signed with CAA.

Not to be outdone, industry speculation suggests that Lewinter and Peterson will be tapped as the founding editors of the highly anticipated campus gossip blog "Ithacandy.com" coming to Ithaca College's media market this fall.

Secrets of the Entourage Fraternity

The entire cast of Entourage, (even Mrs. Ari) gave us a sneak preview of this week's new episode - a Rex Lee as Lloyd hall of fame 26 minutes - last night (Wed. 4.11) Since we already got initiated to the Entourage fraternity back in February
during a weekend in Vegas we learned some secrets, including a similar vegas baptism for the cast.

When Adrien Grenier wants to go out, he calls Kevin Connolly to ask for a hook up. Kevin tells him "you're a celebrity, just walk up to the front and go in. ". When Adrien once showed up at Kevin's table, he threw his hands up like Jordan and said "it worked!".
Rex Lee (Lloyd) worked as an assistant in a casting office for 5 years... he didn't quit until January of 2006, just 15 months ago...not until 3 seasons in to the show.


Exec Producer Mark Wahlberg (Boogie Nights '97, Hooker Patron '97, Oscar Nominee '07) flew the 4 guys out to vegas on a private jet for a "get to know you" weekend before shooting the pilot.


Jeremy Piven had a real life crush on Mrs. Ari (Perry Reeves) "10 years ago" and recommended her to the producers to be cast for his showmance.

Piven confirmed that he has fired several agents, including real life Ari - Emmanuel of Endeavor - the progenitor for his Emmy win who was his agent for a time.

The mini season of Entourage (5 episodes only) shows new episodes on HBO on Sunday nights.

Whitmans Can't Win Every Close One

The CHIMP.net sadly reports that Kate Whitman (Deerfield '95, Wesleyan '99) narrowly lost an election for Freeholder for Sommerset County, New Jersey on Thursday, March 29. Kate, a three year girl at DA, and her brother Taylor (Deerfield '97) come from strong NJ genes - as children of national moderate republican icon Christine Whitman (Wheaton '68, Gov of New Jersey '94-'01, EPA Administrator '01 - '03).

We're blaming it all on her campaign manager - despite him being a former Governor of New Jersey. The early election serves as the Republicans' tidy "primary before the primary", to prevent internecine squabbling and bleeding to ensure only one candidate enters the general election. We now await the next Deerfield Candidacy, Sherlock Grigsby (Deerfield '94, MTV Spring Break Hard Body award '95, Yale '98, Enterprise, MS 'current).
