    FotorCreated2

    Hello Vegas!

    Right after I got off the plane from Portland, I boarded another one set for Vegas. And yes, another announcement is coming…

    I’m thrilled to announce I’m the new host of TV Land’s 100 Best Places!!

    I’ll be showing you the coolest spots around the country- most of which you’ve never heard of before. Okay, yes, we all know about Vegas, but do you know about Slotzilla? It’s this awesome zip line that goes from one direction of Fremont Street to the other.

    Now, I don’t have a lot of pictures from this shoot, but there’s a lot of video. It will be airing soon, so stay tuned, because I will definitely be updating this blog as soon as the video goes live- my reactions are kind of priceless. 😉

  • New Host of MLS’ Get Me In There!

    Get Me In There! And boy did I go!

    If the first few months are any indication of what 2016 has to offer, then this is going to be a good year. I’m so excited to announce that I am the new host of Heineken and MLS Soccer’s Get Me In There. It’s a digital series that brings an inside look at the fanIMG_2040s that drum, dance, sing, tailgate, and do whatever it takes to create the most dynamic match day atmosphere in Major League Soccer.

    This is such a dream job! If you follow me, you know I love to travel and cheer, but what you may not know is that I’m an athlete first. I’ve been in sports all my life- from figure skating (where I was selected by Richard CallIMG_1988aghan to start training for the Olympic team- until I fell on my head and decided school might be a better option) to soccer where my natural ability to run and attack a ball made me a great defender. I was a Stopper, which no longer exists, but man did I stop! And when I didn’t, I ran really fast to make up for it. #SorryCoach

    So it was an incredible honor to interview Nat Borchers, who is a talented defender and has also become the face of the Portland Timbers. I mean, with a beard like that, how can you not be a fan favorite? And spending five seconds with him, you realize he is so much more than the beard. He is a very nice, humble, smart man who treaIMG_2076ts everyone with not only respect, but an unbelievable amount of attention. They say Keep Portland Weird, but Nat says Keep Portland Beard- and I’d agree with that!

    On the second day of our shoot, it was Game Day. The Portland Timbers opener was a rematch of the MLS Cup final with Columbus Crew- it was an insane game! If you look at the recap, you’ll see why. It can be hard to jump into a devout supporters group, but Whitney from the Timbers Army welcomed me in with open arms, helped me with all the songs, and even gave me a nifty scarf… which was much appreciated in the cold! I even got up close and personal with Timber Joey, who slices off a piece of the victory log after every goal. The atmosphere was insane. I can’t wait to show you the finished product when the video is all up.

    Thanks Portland!

    Welcome to Q-Sport!

    I’m so excited to be hosting a new show called Q-Sport that will be airing on Fox Sports affiliates in Europe!

    Over the past year, I’ve been a Host and Senior Producer for The QYOU, a new international linear channel that airs premium online content similar to the way MTV aired non-stop music videos back in the day. It’s been such a privilege to find and promote incredible internet artists who spend hours upon hours creating amazing content. As The QYOU has matured, we are now putting out specialty shows like Q-Sport! And, it’s even cooler that we’re teaming up with big networks like Fox Sports. Yeahhhhhhh.

    For 26 episodes, I’ll be guiding you through the most extreme sports videos from the internet. If you want a sample of what you’ll see, check out this and this.

    Yeah- it’s crazy.

    Q-Sport will start airing in select European territories in April on Fox Sports.

    Coffee Made Out Of Poop Actually Tastes Good!

    You gotta love traveling- you do things half way around the world that you would never think of doing at home. In fact, you pay money to do things half way around the world that you wouldn’t even try for free at home!

    This is Exhibit A.

    I was in Bali for the inaugural Ultra Beach Bali, and on my off day, I decided to go around the island. A DJ told me about the Kopi Luwak coffee aka cat poop coffee aka the most expensive coffee in the world. I had to try it! And, well, it was shockingly really yummy. It was smooth, strong, and didn’t have a bitter aftertaste. I’m also the type of gal that likes my coffee black and my Scotch straight, so take my opinion for what it’s worth. And yes, I hope you’re impressed by my beverage choices.

  • Bad Blood Won Best Music Video at The Grammys – What About My Parody Video?

     

    Big congrats to Taylor Swift for winning Best Music Video at the 2016 Grammy Awards… but have you seen MY Bad Blood video? I mean, 16 million views and counting can’t be wrong! Clearly, the Grammys have not, or else the Barely Productions crew and I would be on that stage accepting the award. I’m just kidding Taylor. No one can beat you. Please forgive all my parody videos where I play you. Can I be part of your Squad?
