Click to view Bonus Clips from Angelique's Episode

If you were part of this production in any way and I did not get a chance to thank you, I really want you to know that I deeply appreciate all of your help.  From all the people in my business that went out of their way to make this episode of My Super Sweet Sixteen "to die for," my heartfelt thanks.  MTV shot over 600 hours of tape for a 23-1/2 minute show.  They sent a crew to film at the TransWorld Halloween Show in Las Vegas and all of the great footage from the convention floor and the Dark Zone did not make it into the episode.  However, MTV has posted Bonus Clips from this episode and can be viewed by clicking on Angelique's photo.

I am especially sorry to all of my celebrity friends and to all of my friends connected with the Make-A-Wish Foundation and St. Joseph's Children's Hospital.  I apologize for all the hours of work, emails, and Fed Ex packages that were sent back and forth with documents requiring signatures for releases and, in the end, none of the footage made it into the final cut.  In order to ensure that the show got filmed, I had to sign off on all final edited content.  My idea that I gave Gary Bias from Event Co. who was instrumental in orchestrating the deal with MTV, was that Angelique's father, who is in the business, can give his own daughter a Super Sweet Sixteen at a fraction of the cost of what the public would pay, using his connections with entertainers, musicians, soundmen, light techs, etc., and that she is not a jaded, spoiled brat, and would appreciate a party of this magnitude which would be gift enough for her sixteenth birthday.  Thanks to Matt Galle, Tim Kirsh, and The Maine, the rock band who performed at the party, she received a Fender Stratocaster as a gift in appreciation for all of her volunteer work for St. Joseph's Children's Hospital. The show failed to deliver the intended message and did not show Angelique presenting a check as a donation to St. Joseph's Children's Hospital at the end of the episode, in lieu of receiving what is usually a car or some other outrageously expensive gift.  All in all, Angelique was portrayed as a regular kid and not a spoiled drama queen (which I think a certain producer for MTV hoped she would become).  All of the people who participated in the episode were presented in a very good light.

Once again, THANK YOU to everybody involved - all the musicians, entertainers, costume designers, sound and production people, and especially my family and staff who were subjected to Reality TV on a regular basis - and everyone else way too many to mention by name but you know who you are.
