Brit & Amanda Gettin' Silly on VH1!

Click Here to watch Episode 1: "Ten dancers compete via webcam for a $5000 prize! Watch the premiere episode of Dance Cam Slam."

After a long process of skype auditioning, sound checks and skype sessions with the producers of VH1's "Dance Cam Slam," Amanda Shorez and I were booked for the premiere of the show! I was on the commercial that aired on VH1 to promote the show, and I laughed at how ridiculous I looked, every time it came on. It didnt take much talent, just a willingness to be fun and silly- which is exactly what I've been needing to do lately. Of course, we had to bring the princesses to the show- Belle and Sleeping Beauty worked it for the camera. Amanda was the perfect partner. She belongs on SNL, and does some really funny things. Unfortunately we didn't make it to Round 2, where we were planning on bringing out the old school rap attire, complete with gold chains, a big boom box and over sized high-top sneakers (yes, while still wearing our princess dresses). We had a great time putting everything together and the best part was, we filmed the show from my house in Alpine, CA. We were snacking during the down time and hanging out at the house!

HP Computers- ROI Commercial

This HP Commercial granted me membership with SAG. It was an all-day shoot in Livemore, CA, back in July. It was a lot of fun and I even saw some familiar faces from the Hawk Nelson Music Video shoot a year ago!

Featured Swimwear girl for Playboy's Beach House

What a fun and crazy day! Friday, September 24th, I was cast as a featured swimsuit girl for a show called "Playboy Beachouse!" I drove all the way up to Malibu for this booking. We parked down at Zuma Beach and the shuttled us to the top of the hill to the location. When we got there, the view alone was breath-taking. They kept us in a holding area to finish hair and makeup and get ready for the show. When they brought us on set, we found ourselves on a pool deck that was transformed into a Vegas-style beach club. There were lounges, a hot tub, a shower/stripper pole, an electric surfboard (that resembled an electronic bull) and lots of fun! I have to say, it was a little edgier than most projects I do, since half the girls were hired as topless or nude models. I was just glad that I was only required to wear a swimsuit and have fun.

The best part of the day? Lil' John hung out with us and even performed a few songs. Not to mention LMFAO! They were a fun group of guys and lil' john was just hilarious. He tried pushing me in the pool, but the girls teamed up on him and pushed him in with his wallet, jewelry and phone on him. yikes! He wasn't mad, but I think he thought I was strange, because I wouldn't take his shot. In the footage, I am dancing with him and having a great time. I am excited to see it all edited, and I am hoping the show will help me to get a job in a music video.

Malibu was definitely a lot of fun. I could do that every day... minus the naked girls. haha. Check out the pics- I had to sneak them in during breaks.

Brittany at the MTV VMA's

Every time I get a new and amazing opportunity, I say "this is the coolest thing Ive done so far," things just keep getting more and more exciting. But, I have to say that THIS IS the best thing Ive done so far. I have watched the VMAs since I was a little girl, and I have always wanted to be a part of that world. Music and Videos are my passion and on September 12th, I was invited to the MTV Video Music Awards, one of the most exclusive and exciting award shows out there. When I walked into the Nokia theater, the music and awe-inspiring stage took my breath away. To top it all off, they sat me in the front row, on the right side of the stage. I couldnt believe it, especially when I saw that the Jersey Shore was sitting behind me. So crazy... I am not sure why I got to set in the front row and the celebs were behind me, but it was awesome. My guess is they wanted all of the girls and energy right by the stage. Anyway, I was definitely not complaining! The performances were amazing and surprisingly, Eminem was my favorite. There was so much energy in the theater when he came out and he was performing right in front of me. So insane! I also loved Justin Bieber, I was so tempted to leave my seat and go outside for his performance, but I got to see him accept his award for Best New Artist- well deserved! My other favorites were Katy Perry and Selena Gomez from the Disney Channel. I saw everyone, since they had to pass by my seat to get to theirs. I even saw and gave a high five to Ron Artest from the Los Angeles Lakers. I couldnt help but think about an old friend that would have loved that.

Needless to say, I did not want the night to end. I would say it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but I think I might be going next year too! Crossing my fingers. As for the after-party, we hung out with the MTV producers and the Real World cast (Chet- the mormon guy on the real world was my fav). Ron Jeremy was there too, but that was just scary. I didnt have my camera inside the venue, but check out some of the pics I took in the holding area and afterwards. My dress was from Cache' and custom altered to be a whole new dress by my seamstress here in San Diego:

Brittany Seen on Comedy Central's Roast of David Hasselhoff

I am beginning to think the Hoff and I are meant to be, after working with him for 2 week straight on separate jobs. haha.
A few weeks ago, I was booked as a feature on the Roast of David Hasselhoff on Comedy Central! Basically, there were 15 girls strategically placed around the set/audience, so the camera could get our reactions to the show. They didnt air many of the girls reactions, but they did air mine! I can be seen during the Gilbert Gottfried set.
It was so much fun being there with so many fun people in the industry I sat next to Craig Robinson (Derryl from 'The Office' & Hot Tub Time Machine) for part of the show and Krista Allen & Gena Lee Nolin (Baywatch babes) for the last portion.
Since the show, I have also been invited to be a part of NBC's the sing-off, among others. I am looking forward to the next season of America's Best Dance Crew, since the same agency will book me for that, as well. I will get to sit right behind the judges, smile and enjoy the show!

Invited to be a SAG member!

The other day, I received a letter from Screen Actor's Guild, inviting me to be a part of the prestigious actor's union! This is a pivotal moment in any actor's career. There are only 100,000 members in the world and every known actor in a movie, commercial or industry project is SAG. To be invited you must be an extra in SAG project 3 times, or a principal actor in a movie or commercial, once.

After filming the HP commercial as a principal actor, I was eligible to join the union. SAG actors get paid twice as much as non-union actors, have special food and amenities on-set and are able to make a career out of acting. This is my goal, and SAG brings me one step closer to achieving it!

Some people work in the industry their whole lives and never get invited to be SAG, I just feel so blessed that everything has fallen in to place so far in my career. Thank you to all of you who support me!

Comic-Con 2010 is a HIT for Princess Encounters!

I was welcomed with open arms and camera lenses at San Diego Comic Con 2010! I appeared as Sleeping Beauty, to promote my company, http://www.princessencounter.com/.

Since the close of Comic Con, I have received countless pictures, emails and website links to people who loved Princess Aroura! I was so pleased to see the CoolJerk.com said "Here’s another example of cosplay done right! Meet Brittany Skipper. That day she was Sleeping Beauty, but I know she’s also cosplayed most of Disney’s stable of princesses (Belle, Ariel, Tinkerbell, Alice, Cinderella, Snow White, among others). And it’s kind of refreshing to see costuming done completely devoid of the perv/skank quotient. Bravo, Brittany!"

It is great to hear that all of the hard work and investment into these couture costumes is truly paying off and getting a wonderful response from parents, kids and fans of cosplay!

Below are some links featuring Princess Encounters:
