The Fabulous Quintina Johnson


Today's blog is about my client, the fabulous Mrs. Quintina Johnson. She was set to debut her 2011 Spring/Summer Collection at Maryland Fashion Week yesterday in Bowie, MD. There are several things that happened in the course of this week. The Quincy Tae'Lor fashion line is for woman sizes 8-14. There were not enough models to fit her clothing so she could only present 6 looks. She sucked it up and said okay, but since she had such a small line she should have been placed in the middle of the show. She was the finale. Ok. All of her models walked the designer before her at the end of her show and so there was not enough time to change into her looks. When the fabulous commentator announced her to begin her show as soon as the last model from the previous designer walked off the stage, he said "Ladies and Gentlemen, please put your hands together for Ms. TJ Quincy."
Tenne and I were floored, did he just call my client "TJ Quincy". Okay, so model one comes out, model two, and then model three and then..... (crickets) no model, 30 seconds passed, no model, another 30 seconds passed, no model, no designer and then all the models do their final walk on the catwalk. WTF just happened???
Mrs Johnson just packed up her fabulous fashion line, went to the parking lot where I met up with her, and the look in her eyes said it all. I was like, "what was happening in the back?" She said, "I couldn't hear anything, and then all of the models just scattered. I was getting one dressed when the did the final model call."
Now as a publicist, I hate for something to go wrong at an event. But, when you mess up a persons hard work you should at least come to apologize. So, as we wait for that phone call from Tyresa Dyer at Maryland Fashion Week, we will humble ourselves, take the experience for what it was and move on. Good thing Mrs Johnson had a hard working publicist behind her that put gift bags with a lookbook video in it so that people could at least take the line home with them.
This business requires that we always have a plan B. Always be on your A game!!!
Love

"Color Blind"


Author & Playwright Dee Blackmon had standing ovations at everyone of her performances of the stage play "Color Blind" showing at the Reginald F. Lewis Museum. Audiences came into the theater with a look of familiarity about going to see another African American production and left with a different opinion. One of the older African American Women left saying, "That was one of the best plays I had ever seen. I was expecting it to be boring and the same as the other plays."


If you didn't get a chance to see "Color Blind", there are four more shows in June at the Reginald F. Lewis museum. Rain Pryor (Richard Pryors' Daughter) came to the May 1, 2010 showing and loved it so much, she asked for a part in the play. She will will be appearing in the June showings.


Dates for the June shows will be coming soon. You can R.S.V.P. at glamgirlpr@gmail.com. Just put "Color Blind" in the subject area. Tickets will be sold for $25. You can also contact GlamGirl PR at 443-570-7040.
