Hey Cutters…
At the finish of last weeks email I asked you to guess who would be the next celebrity to do the Diamond Cutter hands sign with me and I gave you the hint of ” Bow Wow“. That being said, did any of you figure it out before you saw Snoop Dog in the picture? Just curious…more on that later… Snoop and DDP doing the Diamond Cutter The YRG DVDs are On Sale Now and are going out the door like hot cakes... I want to thank you all for your heart felt emails to the DVDs… All the hard work is obviously paying off… Right now we are putting together another sister site to diamonddallaspage.com called YRGworkout.com which will have a ton of streaming video so that you can see pieces of the YRG Workout in action… you will also see some great testimonials and the story behind it. I will keep you posted…
We have also just started our own MYSPACE.COM site… What a surprise huh? We are still under construction (thanks Morgen) Here’s how you get there http://www.myspace.com/YRGworkout … The reason we set this site up is for all the people who are a part of Team YRG and fornew people who are just getting on the YRG program and want to help each other out as you move along… In the coming weeks you will get to talk to some of the staples of YRG like Terri Lange and hopefully Smokey… Terri just emailed me and let me know that she will be up and running on the MySpace site this week… which is really great because now all you ladies who email about Terri will be able to get in direct contact with this incredibly inspirational individual. What else? The YRG World tour kickoff at Golds Gym in Venice was great… I’d like to thank everyone who came out to support YRG and all the new people who experienced it for the first time.
YRG at Golds Gym in Venice, CA We didn’t get many of the muscle heads trying YRG but many of them came by and checked it out… I’ll get’em next time… remember…before you can really be flexible in the body you must become flexible in the mind… you may see a guy walking around with a camera in the Golds gym pictures. Thats Arthur Klien who came by to do some filming for his new movie called “Y-Yoga” which YRG and DDP are becoming a pretty big part of… Arthur, like my friends Kate and and Slick Nick from the movie Project Y, like that fact I am sort of the antithesis of yoga while at the same time YRG is still yoga based… Arthur is pretty much done filming everything for his film… he is just waiting for me to bring back footage of training our troops YRG in Iraq… that will be classic… Sergeant Hulka, get ready to go bro… Pooch Hall at Comic Con is the Game! Also there was buddy writer/producer Jonathan Q who gave me my part and named me Jersey… as well as the legend Ernie Hudson, my girl Lyn Shae, the sexy Brande Roderick and Daniella Alonso and rounding out the panel was producer Martin Shore who is such a class act (I also want to thank his lovely wife Robyn for taking the pictures you are looking at since my camera died right before I got there) this was a fun crew to be with on and off the set… go figure me wearing the new YRG t-shirt… What a surprise hun? Brandy, Q, Tim, Lyn, Snoop, Ernie, DDP, Pooch and Daniella… There was over 4,500 people and you know that most of them came to see Snoop… and guess who’s not going to make it… What a surprise hun?? Our PR girl Nicole saved the day by getting Snoop on the cell phone and actually did a call in on his cell phone and the people still loved it… when you don’t have to be physically at your own panel discussion for you own movie that’s got your name on it and you still leaving the people happy … now that’s being OVER… this cat or dog can’t do nothing wrong I’ve never seen anything like it… Q, Tim, Snoop, DDP and Martin Anyway as you can see above Snoop did finally make the PR portion which is the most important part for all of us concerned … Snoop came as charismatic as ever… totally laid back and within moments the room was his… after he did the press run it’s picture time and at some point Tim says I would like to get a picture of DDP and Snoop … when I walked up to Snoop I stuck out my left hand and just asked Snoop to complete the Diamond Cutter sign with his right hand which he did graciously … after we ran the through all the photographers … Snoop said to me “Hey Diamond we miss one of the boys over there and Snoop suggested putting back up the Diamond Cutter sign again” and yes he called it the Diamond Cutter sign not the Roc sign… as we were taking pictures Snoop says to me… “You know Diamond… I like this Diamond Cutter sign… it’s kinda Gangsterish … I think I might have to steal it…”? which of course made me laugh out loud… I thought of things to say like well you better to get in line but I thought that would just be taking the low road and it was Classic just as it was… Like I said I just laughed my ass off… later I would realize maybe he was just seeing if I would sell it or not… you know get me on a rant about Jay-Z or something… funny thing was when Snoop was getting ready to leave I grabbed my girl Angella and asked him if would take an other picture with the 2 of us… of course Snoop loved Angella… what a surprise huh? Aas we were doing the double cross hands Diamond Cutters Snoop says “yeah we should be doing the Diamond Cutter sign since you invented it Diamond” At that point I was sure he was just ribbing me about stealing the sign… which even made it funnier to me… I really enjoyed meeting him… This was a Classic DDP moment… Snoop DDP and Angella The panels for “Driftwood” and “Spilnter” went well but we only had about a third of the time we had for HoH but it’s all good PR… or Saturday night Angella ,Jana and I watched our first screening of “Spinter” I was happy with it and considering that this flick only cost about $300,000.00 in post production it is absolutely amazing… my part got a little chopped down because of time and technical sh*t but I was just happy to be a part of the team… I learn something new on every flick I get… I want to thank Michael Olmas for the opportunity. Dallas Page, Michael D. Olmos, Resmin Atis and Edward James Olmos As for Driftwood, they are talking about a February release… I’m hoping it goes to MTV but it may go to Spike or The Science Fiction channel and then to the uncensored DVDs which should be killa… I will keep you posted… Have a Great day!
