2012 - Bring It On!

Dear Madonna,

I was in Montreal just before Christmas and I picked up a copy of the free newspaper Metro (Métro in French, with an accent aigu). *You* were on the cover, and inside there was an article:  Le retour de Madonna - all about how you were going to dominate the news in  2012. I was able to read the piece, even though it was in French, and actually noticed a few similarities.

Une nouvelle tournee    A new tour?  Me too!  I'm starting the Masters Tour this weekend with my new partner, Larry (since The Meat lost all interest in competing or dancing West Coast Swing at all).  Larry and I have been working together on a beautiful routine since last February and we're putting it on the floor for the first time competing against our peers at the America's Classic Championships (ACC) in Houston. Wish us luck!

Un nouveau film    W.E., which premiered at TIFF, I think, will be released in 2012. Congrats! I expect to be working with my Diva Productions partner, Shelley, on a cool corporate Flash Mob project (building on something we did last year) which will be filmed and shared through social media sites. I'll keep you posted.

Une nouvelle fragrance   Well, you've got me there. I stopped wearing perfume about three years ago, when I lost my sense of smell. :(

Une novel album     It's been more than three years since Hard Candy came out in 2008 - the same year as JulieFest. I'm sure that's why you couldn't make it to my party....

De nouvelles amies     As part of "Project Snowball" (inspired by Parker Dearborn's "Project Swing") I started offering free beginner classes, with Shelley's help, on the first Tuesday of the month. The momentum is growing and I'm developing strategic relationships and exploring exciting new marketing opportunities all the time. 

ET LE SUPER BOWL!     With Cirque de Soleil? Sounds like it's going to be awsesome! If you want to watch *me* this weekend check out the free UStream link: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/americas-classic-free-channel (We're in Texas, so the U.S. Central Time Zone, or GMT - 6:00)

When Larry and I were introduced, taking the floor for our routine, Brent Key mispronounced his last name as "Hugh" and ommitted mine entirely, so that I was simply "Julie" - like "Madonna"!
