YAY! My next goal is certainly to make a film that becomes "required viewing" in all schools!

Booty Forever
I realize that I abandoned this blog without even so much as a sign-off! Apologies!
The film is complete and I've moved on to new ventures, but I'm happy to say the booty journey lives on.
I have received many emails from Aussies complimenting my work, which is unbelieveably gratifying. The film aired a few weeks back on SBS, a broadcaster in Australia. It's always fascinating to hear how people from different countries and communities respond to a project, especially given my very specific viewpoint. Overall, the response has been good, save a few older male tv critics who weren't blown away by the story -- and I do not discredit them for not being able to identify with my personal journey!!
I will post updates from time to time, as I catch wind of new airdates and once I get into the film festival circuit. But more than anything, I look forward to connecting with like-minded women and men, filmmakers or otherwise, to continue to create films that have an impact!

The Butt Goes On
Wouldn't you know it..... just when I thought this "craze" in Hollywood was winding down, US Weekly publishes a mini article on the "Greek Butt". It started with Kelly Clarkson speaking out recently about her bout with bulimia and her love of food, which ensures that she will never be a waif-thin pop star. Kelly has Greek roots.... which I am aware of. But the US article also mentioned Maria Menounos and Jennifer Aniston.
Now I don't know a whole lot about Maria Menounos, but I do know that she apparently went through quite a Hollywood-style transformation and whipped her curvy body into shape. She definitely had a lot more booty when she first appeared in the press. As for Aniston, she blames her alleged ass on her "Greek roots". I'm not a huge Aniston supporter as she never seemed to be happy with being Greek and only mentions her heritage when she has a "flaw" people criticize her about.
Anyhow, don't want to end this post on a down note -- three cheers for Kelly Clarkson! Wish her 'peeps' had thought my project worthy enough to get her to participate. Believe me, I tried. Nice folks... but we Canadians and our projects just aren't enticing enough to the American pop culture world!
And while we're at it -- a friend called to my attention the so-called "HHD" (Hellenic Hip Disorder). Who came up with this term!? It's funny but also horrendous. Ladies, Mediterraneans have long been known for their healthy curves.... let's take the "Disorder" out of the equation and make it something like "Deity" or "Diva"....
I'm out.
