names are going to be performing there. Hopefully I’ll get to meet them—that would be really cool. Also, I get to be the Ambassador, that just doesn’t feel real to me. I get to host on stage and host events; I am re- ally excited to have the opportunity. So will you be signing? No, I won’t be performing. But don’t put it past


me (laughter) if the opportunity arises and there’s a microphone in my hand. I’m really not planning on performing; I’m leaving that up to the bigger name artists right now. What’s going on with your singing? I have a new single out called “Tonight” on iTunes


and Amazon. You name it, it’s everywhere online. It’s a full digital release. I can’t believe I just said that. (laughter) The words “full, digital, release” in the same sentence…sounds like something fun doesn’t it? Thanks for your time. I look forward to seeing you at The White Party! You’re welcome – ya’ll come now and see me!

Even though we didn’t win, I am so glad we did it. it was the most amazing experience and has opened so many doors. If there is anAmazing Race All-Stars, would you and James be up for the challenge? Heck yeah! You kidding me? (laughter) We are


both hoping they have one—it was so fun. To have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity twice; absolutely, ridiculously insane...and something we most defi- nitely would like to do!
