Paul Rudd

Ok lots and lots and lots of stuff from Kidd Kraddick over the past month and a half. We had the most awesome Paul Rudd in studio, and I have to admit I was really excited about it. I don't think there was a female that works up there that wasn't excited, and I'm happy to say he was extremely nice. He was there promoting "I Love You, Man" which is hilarious if you haven't seen it.

Also in studio we had Matt Nathanson. He's always hilarious, especially on the fly. They showed him the new performance hall which also includes the new green room, or as I call it my room of narcassism.. there are a bunch of photos I've taken in the room. It's like they are my children, he totally pointed that out too when he was in there.

Nextly we had the one and only Miley Cyrus in studio. She was doing a bit of a promotional tour for the new single from the new Hannah Montana movie. She was very nice and chatty, actually asking about my camera, I thought it was very cool she's interested in photography. I have to say she carries herself very well its hard to remember sometimes that she's only 16.

Ok last up for this batch oh blog goodness is the up and comer Jessie James. She's managed by Johnny Wright and has some pipes on her like Christina Aguilera. I'd keep my eyes peeled for her to blow up if I were you.

Awesome Aussie and Freezing Jonas


Missy Higgins
Originally uploaded by rachelparker
So the end of February brought Missy Higgins and the Jonas Brothers. Missy was awesome, a bit more mellow set than I was expecting and short due to there being a show booked an hour after hers was set to end. The Aussie accent made up for the shortness of set though. It however did not make up for the lack of the song Scar! Whats up with that Missy!? Lighting for Higgins was rather dim as well. I guess trying to match the mellow. Hilarious moment when I was shooting, some girl in the crowd yelled "I'll be the Right Girl!" when Missy was singing "Wrong Girl" On another Missy note they've been playing "Steer" a ton at my other job on the satellite radio. I get kind of excited when it comes on. It played today matter of fact! If you dont know Missy Higgins.. get with it!

Ok now on to the Jonas.. that's like completely opposite of Missy Higgins. This however was a red carpet event. It was outside and like 38 degrees and that doesn't include the wind chill. I have to hand it to the fans that stood out there and waited for hours on end. We eventually got to go stand in the lobby of Main Event. Jonas were supposed to arrive at around 11:00 pm but were running late with all the promotion they were doing across the U.S. (It happens) But they didn't walk the Red Carpet till 1:30 A.M. Demi Lovato also walked the carpet, but she got there at 10:30 when it first started. She recently twittered that she gets nervous on red carpets. I think she handled this one marvelously, especially since it was freezing and she was in a knee length skirt of sorts (the wind tried to blow that thing up too, that would have sucked!)

Hope you enjoyed the shots from both events. I'm going to try and get a slew of Kidd Kraddick stuff blogged. Speaking of which.. Ashley Tisdale will be in studio tomorrow morning, and friday we have Fall Out Boy! Dallasites should come down! Should be good!

How was everyone's easter? I'm reading New Moon now.. I know lame.. I've fallen Victim to reading these books.

Ok back to work now!
