The earings to compliment my Yeaggy dress. http://annieawards.org/watch-it-live/
Alex Yeaggy www.yeaggy.com is putting the final touches on her amazing creation/my dress for the Annie Awards tomorrow night. There are still some minor adjustments here and there, but this couture design is ready to rock the red carpet! http://annieawards.org
My Yeaggy couture dress is in it’s final touches! (Yeaggy, pronounced like Steve Yeager, but with a “y” at the end, for all you ball fans). Here is the idea for my hair design to compliment the dress. What do you think? Adding the crystals
My “Yeaggy” dress with its first layer of teal drapings. At my fitting yesterday, these were adjusted and the next layer of thin black strips pinned on. Finally, will come the black Swarovski crystals. With all the strips and pins, I felt like a bird in a cage. But, with trust and imagination, you can tell this dress…
Step by step! My “Yeaggy” couture takes time. The dress foundation is finished and now we are working on the 3 different types of drapings. Here is the dress and one of the drapings being covered in teal silk. Next fitting tomorrow!
Watching a dress go from concept, sketch on paper, to completion is an amazing process. We have now entered, the middle part of this process. I had my first dress fitting and I’m sooooo thrilled!!! It’s all still black, with outer stitching and extra fabric, but you can tell it’s going to be amazing. It will, “make…
I’m going over to meet with the designer, Alex Yeaggy, for my first fitting tomorrow. Yeah!! Since my dress is sleeveless and short, she has also created a cape to keep me warm. Here is the cape on the dress form still in progress; black with a beautiful, teal, silk lining. I’ll hopefully get pictures of…
Alex Yeaggy, my talented young designer, has created an amazing, amazing, amazing dress for the Annie event. It is so sexy and classy and I get to pick the colors! My favorites are teal and purple. Although they can be pretty together, it might be too bright of a combination, even for the animation awards. So…
This year, in honor of the show stepping up it’s game (being televised) I’ve decided to step up mine! I’ll be walking the red carpet in a designer dress. That’s right! My friend, Diana Lansleen, introduced me to Alex Yeaggy, an amazing, young, LA designer who studied and worked in Italy. Her portfolio is full of garments that vary…
The new year is starting off with a bang! On February 4th, at Royce Hall, UCLA, I will be the announcer once again for the Annie Awards. This will mark my 7th year as “The Voice of the Annies.” It is all very exciting as there is a new regime, new categories like Video Games, and… it will be…
Just heard, through the grapevine…or would it be pumpkin patch, given the time of year….that Cartoon Network is giving the Annoying Orange a television series! Wooohooo! Don’t know what this means yet for us adorable peaches and marshmellows, but keeping my eyes crossed for some fun shows. Will keep you posted on when my episodes air…
I want to say thank you to all the kids in Mrs. Wildman’s drama classes. I totally love all your thank you notes!! Your words mean a lot to me. I truly enjoyed sharing the world of voice overs with you all. It was so much fun watching and hearing you do the warm ups, and voice placements. You had…
Here are the 1st 3 kid’s stories we did for Amanda Panda. I’m the Wolf. http://www.youtube.com/user/itspandamania?feature=mhee Would love to get your feedback!
Here is the first story from the creators of Amanda Panda. I am not only the voice of the Wolf, but I also have my hand up his…..ummm…..I mean, I’m also the puppeteer. My favorite story so far is The Princess and the Pea. Hopefully that will be uploaded next. These are really nice people…
I had such a fabulous time recording voices for a new Annoying Orange! Yes they are in negotiations for a TV series. Until then, they have the most popular website, in the world! Pretty awesome, AND they are nice folks, too! I’ll keep you posted on the release of these new shows. On another avenue,…
Yeah! We’re back on to record a new episode of Annoying Orange. Very funny scripts!!! Can’t wait to play! I’ll keep you posted on when it airs.
It’s funny how life’s craziness can get in the way of every day blogging. Gosh it sounds like I could use a little more fiber to help that problem…. Anyway, I am now working on a new kid’s internet show. I’m not only doing the voice but I am also the puppeteer behind the Wolf puppet….
I am looking forward to Wed., March 2nd, when I get to read to the winners of the Read Across America-Reading Counts Program, at the Staples Center. More info to follow.

We even had a…
January has started out interestingly. Not a lot of auditions. I guess the year is starting out slow, but I’ve liked the projects and I’ll keep my fingers crossed. I enjoyed a workshop with Wes Gleason. Great director. I look forward to working with him sometime soon. There are a few web things and apps…

So I’ve been getting all these singing auditions, lately. I’m always laughing because I’m not a rock star, broadway or pop star…by any stretch of the means. Still they send me these auditions. My friend says it’s because I must be doing something right. That made me giggle and I said maybe it’s because for every audition…
As summer starts we enter E3 and the Prime Time Emmy battle. Not to mention all the pilots for cartoons. Whew, that was a dizzying amount of auditions! Disney was the most generous in the amount of pilots. I can only keep my fingers crossed they take a chance on a non-celeb! This past Wed….
