For almost a century of being an icon; for her fortitude, ability to empower, quintessential qualities and her deep commitment to her beloved African American community. |
As a Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia survivor, I was invited by the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society to speak before the District of Columbia Council on the importance of Clinical Trials. That's what saved my life. See my testimony at:

DOVE CREAM OIL BODY WASH
Oscar 2008 Style
Betty Entzminger and I entered the Dove Cream Oil Body Wash Ad Contest 2008. You can view all the entries at www.dovecreamoil.com. On January 30th, the five finalists will be selected, and the final two ads will be decided by you. The winning Dove ad will air during a commercial break in The Oscars on ABC, February 24th.
What is so exciting about this is that I learned about this contest on Thursday, worked my first modeling job all day Friday (I'm getting back in the business), called Sharon Burch, videographer, on Friday, couldn't film it until Tuesday (because of our schedules), and uploaded it Wednesday before the 11:59 pm deadline.
I am so proud of the fact that I did it! So, enjoy my commercial. I surely did.

Now Betty put much more time and effort in her commercial, and it shows. Betty created a phenomenal commercial, dedicatd to our friend Dyan Harris Adams, who succumbed to breast cancer. Dyan had a day spa and Betty used her slogan in her ad. "Come in pieces, Leave whole". Ironically, the deadline date was Dyan's birth date. There are many fabulous commercials, and we are expecting Betty Entzminger to be one of the five finalists selected. Judge for yourself. Please add your vote. View Betty's commercial now:
