CHRISTMAS BALL TOUR: Minneapolis, MN

The Christmas Ball Tour kicked off in Minneapolis, home of all things Christmas, Chi Chi LaRue and Mary Tyler Moore (my FAVORITE TV show of all time - and the city exudes the "you're gonna make it after all" energy)! Chi Chi and I bundled up for the Holidazzle Parade the night we arrived and did tons of early morning shopping the next day. Only she can get me out of bed at 6 am to go to Macy's. I got to meet her wonderful family and friends -- and got majorly drunky at The Gay Nineties where I met my latest DV8 Casting discovery, Brandon Wilde! More on him in the next Christmas Ball Tour entry.
