Yesterday was the Model Co and Myer event held at the Myer city store in Sydney. Similar to previous launches for Obsidian Lingerie and Cozi by Jennifer Hawkins, we performed pop up dance fashion shows down the stores mezzanine staircase, this time wearing hot pink swimsuits by Seafolly! Joining me were my friends Ame Delves (who also choreographed the shows), Sarah Jane Coombe, Melissa Ambrosini and Daniel Garofali.

Fragment on DVD
Was just sent a copy of my film Fragment on DVD from Germany! Can't wait to watch myself in German! Will be funny I think. I'm excited to finally have a copy of a film I'm in on the shelf with all my other DVD's!!
Just because...
I love receiving "just because" flowers! It just totally makes your day and puts a smile on your face. My little Deyzi ♥'s them too.

Kesha spotted in 3D glasses...
Kesha was spotted wearing 3D glasses leaving Jimmy Kimmel Live as posted on on website Just Jared. Now let's just remember who wore them first . . . posted here a couple of months ago! Haha!
The 3D glasses were actually designed and hand crafted by my talented friend Michael Boyd, who is also one of Australia's most sought after dancers and choreographers, and also the brother of Katie Boyd fashion designer of label The Cassette Society.

Nespresso Media Launch
Last night I hosted the media launch of the new Nespresso boutique in Sydney's Pitt Street Mall with fellow hosts Teigan Nash and Laura May. I wore a custom made Bowie Wong black sequin gown with a special head piece made entirely of Nespresso capsules by milliner Reny Kestel.
Guests including Miranda Otto, Peter O’Brien, Carla Zampatti, Anneliese Seubert, Camilla Freeman, Ruby Smallbone, Rodger Corser and Jackie Frank made their way on the red carpet to the Nespresso media wall where they had their photo taken with us (the hosts), then were treated to a dance performance choreographed by the fabulous Squared Division and models including Samantha Harris walked through the crowd wearing dresses made from Nespresso capsules!

Dragon-i 8th anniversary party in Hong Kong
A few days ago I flew to Hong Kong for the 8th anniversary party for Dragon-i nightclub! It was a really fun night and they went all out decorating the venue, it looked fantastic. Verne Troyer aka Mini Me and rapper Coolio were also flown in for the event.
I arrived late Friday night, my driver picked me up from the aiport and I went straight to the hotel, watched a movie and fell asleep. The next day Coolio, myself and the rest of the gang went out for a yummy lunch before we headed to the venue for a sight inspection and sound check. Afterwards Verne, myself and the rest of the guys headed to dinner at Isola restaurant, which had the most beautiful view of the water and the Hong Kong city lights. We ordered the biggest bottle of wine I have ever seen! It was the equivalent of three bottles!
After dinner we headed back to our hotel to have a rest and get ready for the event. We arrived just before midnight and I kicked off the entertainment with my contortion performance in a black and gold swarovski encrusted costume! Afterwards Verne Troyer greeted the audience with a brief introduction before he and Coolio sprayed the audience with bottles of Dom Perignon champagne. Coolio then performed three songs, including my favourite song of his, Gangsta's Paradise! Then it was time to party! We had so much fun and I have to say that Verne Troyer really is the sweetest guy ever! Later in the evening Verne and I were treated to a special magic trick by Asia's premier magician Lawrence Sullivan, who showed us some amazing card illusions and even smoked a Sharpie pen! Video of the magic trick posted below!
Thank you to Dragon-i for a fabulous evening and happy 8th anniversary!!

Coconut Water
I am totally obsessed with coconut water! I have always loved coconuts but once I discovered the health benefits I was seriously hooked. Full of vitamins, minerals and electrolytes, coconut water is a great drink after exercise to rehydrate and it tastes delicious! Yum.

Mont Blanc Metamorphosis event Beijing
Last week I flew out to Beijing, China for the huge and I mean huuuuge Mont Blanc event celebrating the launch of the Metamorphosis watch. Here's the breakdown of my day to day blog.
Day 1:
I arrived in Beijing after a long flight and almost no sleep. A huge group of us arrived one after another, performers brought in from all over the world and we were taken to our hotel on a big bus. I spent the evening chilling in the hotel room.
Day 2:
We had the morning off so it was time for some sightseeing. We headed to Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City! It was amazing and bigger than you could ever imagine! The Forbidden City just kept going and going and going. We walked all the way through and then up the long stairs to the Jingshan Park where I dressed up as an Empress which was fun! The acrobat boys from PopEyed dressed up as Emperors and did some acrobatic moves for the cameras too!
Day 3:
In the morning we headed to the markets and had a look around before we headed to the venue for a technical rehearsal and press call. We performed our show for the constant stream of press who came to photograph and film the performers before the big event the following evening.
That night a group of the Australian performers and I had a yummy dinner at a restaurant around the corner from the hotel and ended the night with some bowling! It was lots of fun and I even scored a few strikes!!
Day 4:
Today we went to the Great Wall of China! We were all so excited and it was so amazing! We caught the chair lift up the wall and the toboggan ride down the wall to try and preserve some energy in our legs before the show that night. The toboggan ride was soooo fun!! We went faster than we were probably allowed to but it was awesome. The Great Wall looks steep but it's way steeper than you think it is! I had jelly legs!! It truly was amazing to see.
The Mont Blanc Metamorphosis event was such an amazing event. As guests arrived they walked the red carpet then were ushered in to the Typhoon room where they were entertained by models body painted black with fluro patterns and fluro butterflies which lit up under the special black light, aerialists, pole performers and contemporary dancers dressed in hooded black and white unitards surrounded by mirrors. When the doors finally opened the guests including Nicolas Cage entered the main room where the walls inside the huge water tank were lined with 3D projected graphics which were absolutely incredible, a bar which ran around the entire edge of the wall and various performances by aerialists, acrobats, dancers, the Blue Man Group who were fantastic and myself performing contortion! There were thousands of people there and we partied long in to the night drinking Moet and cocktails!
Day 5:
Super early wake up this morning to catch my flights back to Sydney. It was a struggle but some good movies on the plane always make long flights feel much faster. I arrived home early Monday morning after a whole day and night of travel and crashed in to bed for the whole day! I was exhausted but my China experience was unbelievable!!
