Julia Ormond-o-mania

Here's Jason, me, the TPAA staff, and Julia Ormond. A real-life ce-le-bri-tee. She's here to promote AIDS awareness in Russia, which is desperately needed, hence, the need for our organization. She's actually seemed very nice...warm and unpretentious. It's remarkable to realize, though, how important celebrity endorsements are for causes like this. In the last two days, our organization has been on TV stations, front pages of newspapers, and tonight, MTV, when she's presenting the Staying Alive award to our spokeswoman, a young woman living with HIV. Serve a good dish, and everyone comes to the meal. And wow, she's real pretty (gush!)
