Nick Verreos and Tyra!! Backstage at the Daytime Emmys for SOAPnet

Flip That Hair Darling!

The Daytime Emmy Awards are "Done and Done!" as I like to say...but the photos and the videos just keep on coming! After I did my red carpet interviews, I skedaddled my Greek-Venezuelan no-butt self through a side door of the Orpheum Theater and, along with my AMAZING SOAPnet producers, writers and cameraman, we set up shop backstage to get the "Post Award" reactions from the winners.

Hottie Couple: Nick Verreos and Outstanding Supporting Actor 2009 Jeff Branson of "Guiding Light"

I was privileged to be one of only a few media outlets who were allowed access (in a separate room) to interview the winners (Rachel Ray escaped me unfortunately--her pr people said she had to get back in the theater for another award) after they had their "moment" in the "General Press Room".
Halter Winner: Outstanding Lead Actress 2009, Susan Haskell of "One Life To Live" and Nick Verreos

I was so happy to get Outstanding Lead Actress winner, Susan Haskell (she's got amazing shoulders!), cutie Jeff Branson of "Guiding Light" (the NICEST guy!) and from "General Hospital" Julie Berman who looked gorgeous in a vanilla-colored jersey gown with a very high slit.

Once they arrived at my SOAPnet.com "station" I first asked them how they felt to get their Daytime Emmy trophy. I also had them say a heartfelt "Thank You" to whomever they might have missed in their acceptance speech--right to the SOAPnet camera; Just for us--and to the rest of America (he he).

One of my favorite moments of the night came towards the end, when off to left of my eye, I notice a stunning 6 foot tall blond woman in one of the other "Post-Award" rooms interviewing the stars. During a break in the award commotion, I pass by and realized it's one of my favorite "Lifestyle DIVAS", the one and only Sandra Lee!! Daytime Emmy Prom Date: Nick Verreos and Food Network's Sandra Lee

I love her show, Money Saving Meals, and couldn't believe that she was ten feet away from me! Her "entourage" of hair, make-up and pr people were THE CUTEST! At the same time I was going CRAZY over her, her staff was going "ga-ga for Nick". Little did I know (I soon found out) that they were all fans of Project Runway and me. Well, you know I just about died and went to Food Network Heaven!That's Big Bird! Nick Verreos points to Big Bird, backstage at the 2009 Daytime Emmy Awards

My other favorite moment involved Sesame Street, Telly and Big Bird. Sesame Street was being honored for its 40Th Anniversary and a Lifetime Achievement Emmy Award. One of my first memories as a young kid having just arrived in the US from Venezuela was watching Sesame Street. In other words, I love me some Sesame Street! Congratulations to all the 2009 Daytime Emmy Winners and hope to see you next year!

Debenhams Beauty Club

After browsing through Look Magazine this lunchtime, I came across an advert for the new Debenhams Beauty Club Card. It's basically the same idea as the Boots Advantage Card and I'm definitely up for anything like that! Here's the lowdown, you get:
  • Exclusive Gifts & Offers
  • Free Samples
  • Free Beauty Makeovers
  • Expert Skincare Consultations
  • Insider Tips & Advice
  • Beauty Gossip Emails

I don't know about you guys but I'm really excited by this! I love the thought of building up points as I spend and anything that I can't get in my local Boots, I get from Debenhams alot of the time so this could prove useful! I love Gossip and I love emails so the Beauty Gossip emails sound good too. You just pick up a card in-store and then activate it online.

Good Times/Bad Times

Good Times this week:

1) I am IN LOVE with the Loreal Studio Smoothing Resurfacing Primer I got at the weekend...despite my rant about how small the jar is, this product is perfect for mattifying the face and making sure your makeup goes on smoothly and evenly. I'm uber impressed!

2) My hair is really behaving itself and has been great the last week or so but I think that's due to regular use of the Lancome Nutritive Intense Smooth & Shine Treatment. I will be getting my highlights done on Thursday so hopefully that won't set my hair back in any way!

3) I watched a YouTube video of 20 questions for Kandee The Makeup Artist http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bmsj6D1Awfs. If you aren't already subsribed to her channel on YouTube then do so right away. She is an amazing makeup artist based in LA and so good at what she does. Plus she always makes me laugh and smile (especially the dancing in the above vid!hilarious!). Watching one of her videos is like popping happy pill coz she is so excitable and enthusiastic about makeup. Check her out!

4) My impending swap of all swaps with Michelle a.k.a. LipstickRules. We have both requested different items in our swap so we are going to get stuff that we have both been lusting over for ages. My requested items include ones from MUFE and Lise Watier. Look out for the post from me...

Bad Times this week...

1) I placed an order with MAC on Friday morning and paid for next day delivery coz I wanted to use the products that night. I waited and waited on Saturday and it never turned up...I hate it when that happens!So I got on the phone to MAC and was told that it hadn't even been despatched yet and won't be with me until the end of this week. It kinda ruined my excitement over getting new goodies :(

I like to have more good times than bad times coz I'm a positive kinda gal! I had to have a wee rant about the MAC thing though...I'm sure that will all wear off when I receive my order and start drooling over what i got though!

What are your Goodtimes and Badtimes this week?
