claim to fame

November 29th, 2007

hahaha so i always make fun of people on the news and i think they always pick the most stupid people to interview. we'll i've now joined that club.30 min. ago while typing away at my desk, my boss says people are filming down stairs. so what do Cristin, Shea, and I do??? that's right run down stairs as fast as we can! In the parking lot we see a camera crew and a really tall handsome cowboy, but we can't see exactly who it is. So we're standing inside the building; Cristin with her face pressed to the glass, Shea with the classic "hand sheilding her eyes" glance, and me jumping up and down to get a better view. While debating who he could be we notice he is walking toward us. no....strutting towards us. he gets closer. "he's not coming over here?" "no, he's not coming over here." oh crap.... "he's coming over here!" where are we going to go? it's obvious that we've been staring at him for a good 5 minutes AND we're standing behind the glass doors with no where to go. He is still walking towards us.... closer closer He waves us out. so we walk out and it's BLAKE SHELTON!!!! he greats us; tells us all how pretty we look and how he saw us from across the parking lot. (what a charmer... with photoshop eyes, so blue) As i reach for his hand i notice his fly is undone.... what do i do? do i tell him? nah... "i'm Amanda, you're fly is unzipped" sounds a little to friendly so i just went with "i'm Amanda". He was shooting for NBC's show Clash of the Choirs. Cristin and i sang two christmas carols with him. And although he was extremely handsome when he started carressing my face i felt uber uncomfortable. But it was nice to hear him sing.Shea ran inside to get Jennifer and she came out and sang a solo. Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy ... and the three of us served as background dancers. lol It was fun we talked a little bit longer then signed release forms. Went back up stairs and were very unproductive for the next 20 minutes. After making fun of his flying being down and talking about how "i wish i had/hadn't" or losing jewelry in clevage areas... someone runs by and says that we need to go downstairs to the canal. Where at least 10 AAI co-workers and other various celeb wannabe's jumped in the canal boat and sang along with Blake Shelton to the tune of Jingle Bells all while camera's rolled. The Show airs Dec. 17,18, & 19!!! on NBC (channel 4 in the Oklahoma City area) http://www.nbc.com/Clash_of_the_Choirs/ so check us out. there is no telling what will be cut out or aired and you know how i just ramble when i get nervous! hahahahahai almost broke out the Robot dance... but had a moment of clarity. Thank the good Lord! i took a few pictures with my phone so maybe i'll get to post those soon.and to think i got paid for my 15 minutes of fame.
**** let me clarify i'm not part of the Choir, i just sang a few songs with him, but on tv none the less****
