05 July 2011 – /RTPR/– The party is nearly over for ‘Popstar to Operastar’ contestants Joe McElderry and Cheryl Baker but it never stops for Sekonda watches.

Over the past five weeks, Sekonda has showcased its colourful range of Party Time watches in its role as official show sponsor of ITV1’s singing competition.

In that time, the eight celebrity contestants have been whittled down to finalists McElderry and Baker, who will compete against each other to be crowned the winning ‘Operastar’ on Sunday’s final show.

Although the final curtain will come down on ‘Popstar to Operstar’ for another year, fans of Partytime won’t have to wait that long to see their favourite Sekonda watches return to the screen.

The new series of ‘Britain & Ireland’s Next Top Model’, which commenced on Sky Living on Monday (04 July), will feature the modelling hopefuls sporting Sekonda Partytime watches as part of one week’s challenge.

Sekonda watches’ starring role in Living’s fashion show follows last year’s photo shoot, which saw contestants wearing Casio Baby-G watches and led to show winner Joy McLaren being selected as an official brand ambassador.

Although it is not yet known whether this year’s winner will enjoy a similar deal modelling Sekonda Partytime watches, the brand itself is sure to benefit from another turn in the TV spotlight.

Each Partytime watch boasts a bold, single colour strap with a glittering stone-set bezel, providing a colour for every party any time of the year.

A wide range of Sekonda watches, including the Partytime range, can be viewed at the Watch Hut, the UK’s largest watches website.

Cameron Diaz to be the new face of TAG Heuer Watches

Jun 22 2011 /RTPR/– Hollywood starlet Cameron Diaz is set to become the latest high profile celebrity to endorse TAG Heuer watches.

Although an official announcement is yet to be made, reputable sources report that Diaz is set to join Leonardo DiCaprio as an ambassador for the popular, prestigious watch brand.

TAG Heuer watches, which are particularly popular in Diaz’s native US, have long been associated with some of Hollywood’s biggest stars; prior to DiCaprio’s current role as ambassador, Brad Pitt and Uma Thurman both featured in TAG Heuer campaigns.

With sources pointing to Diaz being next in line to the TAG Heuer ambassador throne, the company’s reputation for attracting the Hollywood elite is as strong as ever.

Diaz can currently be seen in cinemas in hit comedy ‘Bad Teacher’, where she stars alongside ex Justin Timberlake, and was last year ranked by Forbes Magazine as the third highest-paid actress in Hollywood.

The actress’s box office appeal has spanned over a decade of cinema, from her breakout turn in ‘There’s Something About Mary’ to dramatic roles (‘In Her Shoes’, ‘My Sister’s Keeper’), indie endeavours (‘Being John Malkovich’, ‘A Life Less Ordinary’) and successful franchises (‘Shrek’, ‘Charlie’s Angels’).

Her new role as TAG Heuer ambassador will cast Diaz in a promotional role for the Swiss watch brand. Upon an official announcement, promotional shots featuring Diaz wearing a timepiece will be expected shortly afterwards.

TAG Heuer watches have provided watch fans and collectors with the best in Swiss ‘avant-garde’ since 1860. Many of the brand’s watches have gone on to become iconic examples of watch-making craftsmanship, including the Carrera line and the infamous Monaco. TAG’s long-established relationship with the field of motorsports means Diaz will feel right at home, following her stint behind the wheel of an Indy Race Car in the first ‘Charlie’s Angels’ movie.

The Spirit Agency, Novel New Talent and Modeling Agency

February 14, 2011 – Attorney and entrepreneur Dennis VanDerGinst, has recently opened a new and novel talent and modeling agency, dubbed “The Spirit Agency.” Encouraged and inspired by super-agent, Paul Fisher, VanDerGinst created “Spirit” in order to offer a “safe haven” for talented models and entertainers. “The modeling industry is probably the only entertainment industry that does not have a union available to protect rights of the worker”, said VanDerGinst, “We intend to run our agency as though our models were unionized. We will not allow them to be exploited by clients. We will do our best to ensure they work in a safe environment. We will make sure they are paid fairly and timely. We will be available to offer emotional guidance, legal counsel and financial advice. It is a shame to see young models making lots of money who wind up with nothing later in their careers. We want to do what we can to protect our models and other entertainers.”

VanDerGinst is also the managing partner of VanDerGinst Law, and the national director of American Spirit Pageants. “The Spirit Agency was a natural fit with what we already do”, said VanDerGinst, “We meet lots of talented and beautiful women through the Pageant, and through the law firm we represent many talented people with their business and other legal issues. So, there is a lot of synergy between what we were already doing and what “Spirit” will be offering. As an attorney there are many legal services that I can offer that most agencies cannot.”

One of the novel characteristics of American Spirit Pageants is that is the only national pageant to have fundraising as a judged component in the competition. Likewise, VanDerGinst wants to encourage his talented clients to give back to the community. “I am a firm believer that if you are blessed with gifts such as talent, beauty, business acumen or something else that generates wealth, you have a responsibility to do what you can to help others. We want to make it easy for our clients to do so. We call it our “Role Model” program”, says VanDerGinst, “It is a program designed to identify opportunities for our clients to give back to the community in a way that will enhance their own image, help them from a tax standpoint, make them feel good about themselves, and most importantly assist worthy charitable efforts.”

The Spirit Agency represents female and male models and just about every category of entertainer from anywhere around the world. You can read more about the agency at: http://www.thespiritagency.com

Horror Film “The Kult” Begins Principal Photography in Southern California

San Diego-based Gharial Productions announces that upcoming horror film The Kult began principal photography on September 27, 2010 in San Diego and Riverside Counties under the direction of Kip Shelton.

The screenplay is based on the best selling thriller by UK author Shaun Jeffrey, and it weaves a terrifying story of a hunt for a serial killer. Acting out of misguided loyalty to his friends, Detective Prosper Snow is goaded into helping them perform a copycat killing. But when the real killer comes after him, it’s not only his life on the line, but his family’s too. If he goes to his colleagues for help, he risks being arrested for murder. If he doesn’t, he risks being killed.

The screenplay went into negotiations in the middle of November 2009 between Gharial Productions and Leucrota Press, and emerged with a solid contract offer and acceptance in early December.

The film stars Joe Soro, an unknown to the Hollywood movie scene, as Detective Prosper Snow. His casting carries on Gharial’s history of casting fresh faces. The entire film will be shot on location in San Diego and Riverside Counties, including the cities of San Diego, Poway, Temecula, and Lake Elsinore.

With two weeks of shooting already under the cast and crews’ belts, the level of excitement on set is palpable. As an added bonus, Shaun Jeffrey flew out to the US on October 5th to visit the set. He and the cast attended a book signing at the Barnes & Noble store in Oceanside, CA on the 6th.
