Shaun Livingston Delivers Holiday Cheer Inclusive of Gifts, Hope and Encouragement

NBA’s Shaun Livingston adds to the holiday cheer by providing Thanksgiving and Christmas events through his Shaun Livingston Foundation and gears up for distribution of the “Shaun Livingston Coats For Kids.”

Los Angeles, CA -- December 22, 2007 -- Shaun Livingston (#14 of the Los Angeles Clippers, NBA) has not let the hustle and the bustle of the NBA season and his physical rehabilitation prevent him from giving back during the holiday season. While Shaun in conjunction with his foundation pays attention to those in need year round, making sure these needs receive special attention is a priority for him during the holiday season. “I wasn’t very fortunate…you never want to say it, but we were borderline poor. So I can relate to kids who go through the struggle,” says Shaun.

This past November, The Shaun Livingston Foundation made sure Thanksgiving was a happy time for Los Angeles families and on December 8, 2007 Shaun presented the “Brighten The Holidays Project” where he provided a very special private dinner for select families where he personally hosted the event. In addition to a fabulous and fun dinner, very special gifts were given to each family member families along with a surprise December rent check for all of the families. This project is very close to Shaun’s heart in which he and his foundation has made this a private annual event.

The Shaun Livingston Foundation is dedicated to enriching the lives of those in the Los Angeles California community and beyond. Shaun would like to encourage you to get involved. There are many ways to pitch in and be apart. The donation of a new jacket, sweater or coat for the “Shaun Livingston Coats for Kids” project is always a good place to start. Your coat donations will be distributed in early 2008 to those persons in need. You may send your coat donations to The Shaun Livingston Foundation P.O. Box 232 Sunland, CA 91040-0232 or to physically drop off your coat, contact the Shaun Livingston Foundation (contact below). If you would like to contribute in other ways by being apart hands on or donating funds please be sure to contact us! We would love to have your participation.

2008 Will Be Very Great…For Actress Angell Conwell

No skimping on the sweet potato pie or the dinner rolls, part of Angell Conwell’s holiday activities has been packing on a few extra pounds for a project she is involved with. While it’s a slight adjustment to have weight gain instead of weight loss, Angell is focused on her career development and enjoys the various roles she has been blessed with in 2007. So what will 2008 bring for Angell? LOTS of movie releases. So far, SIX (6) are on the schedule for this rising star. Starting off with “SHOW STOPPERS” where she stars alongside Faun Chambers (Epic Move/White Chicks) as sorority steppers/ leaders on campus. In Angell’s first horror film “PORTAL” she plays the seductive ally who places herself in harms way to help the character Hooke played by Chris Conrad and also stars Kevin Dobson and Alexander Martin. In “FRANKENHOOD” Angell plays a down to earth, quirky and colorful sister of the lead character who has a crush on his best friend along with Charlie Murphy, DeRay Davis and Hassan Johnson. In “THUG PASSION” Angell plays the best friend who shakes things up a bit alongside Elise Neal, Jackie Long, Tamala Jones and Hassan Johnson. In “THE KILLING OF WENDY,” which was filmed in Africa, Angell plays the leading female role of a sexy provocative woman whose past effects her future also starring Rachel True, Vanessa Bell Calloway and Bianca Lawson. In “LOVE FOR SALE” Angell plays opposite R&B singer Mya as the voluptuous best friend. Love for sale also stars Jackie Long, Big Daddy Kane, Clifton Powell among many other urban favorites.

Outside of acting, Angell has plans to complete her self esteem booklet for teenage girls entitled “How to Build Self Esteem Like an Angell.” This project is very special to Angell, especially now, after gaining weight for a project and having to be out at Hollywood events over the holiday season without people knowing the reason for her shapely additions and not always having nice things to say to her. Angell intends on developing a female clothing line starting with adorable baby tees and tanks which have already been sported by celebrity actresses in Hollywood. So keep an eye out for Angell Conwell You may even see her on your favorite station or show ;-)

Angell very slim and athletically fit after filming her role in “The Killing Of Wendy” on October 25^th 2007.

  Here intentionally a slightly thicker Angell Conwell after filming her role in “Love For Sale” on December 11^th 2007.

Either way, she looks FABULOUS!

RUMOR CONTROL on Kerry Rhodes

Being ranked the 29th best NFL player out of the top 500 according to Sports Illustrated (September 3 edition LINK TO STORY) is a deserving accolade for rising star safety Kerry Rhodes #25 of the NY Jets. YET...the rumors begin.

NO Kerry Rhodes and Melyssa Ford are NOT a couple, not dating, not about to be serious...none of that. They are friends. Kerry will tell you himself that his only girlfriend is FOOTBALL. And as Anadyah his personal photographer said...that is the only ring he has on his mind. While an "anonymous" female is insisting she knows all about it contacting as many gossip sites as possible, one thing is for sure, if there is a relationship, Kerry knows nothing about it :-)
SO basically people...its just gossip, a rumor, a little white lie.

NO Bill Bellichek did NOT make a comment about Kerry Rhodes not being able to make his team. A writer took a statement that made referencing TO the coach, but never used a quote as some writers mistakenly reported. Bill NEVER made a statement about Kerry. All you have to do is read the statement for yourself

NO Kerry Rhodes is NOT and was never dating Dani Evans from America's Next Top Model...In fact they share the same modeling manager. Many events you saw them together at was because they were with their model manager, not each other :-) They are just friends too

YES!!! Kerry IS ranked #29 out of the top 500 NFL players by Peter King for Sport's Illustrated

YES!!! Kerry Rhodes IS in the current issue of King Magazine (pg 120) with Kim Kardashian on the cover.

YES!!! Kerry IS on the COVER of October issue of Indulge Magazine hitting news stands next month

YES!!! Kerry Rhodes IS on the COVER of the October issue of Velocity Magazine out next month

YES!!! Kerry Rhodes is as single as a dollar bill and will be allowing 1 lucky woman a chance to win a date with him through YBF blog. So be sure to keep your eyes open for that :-)
