Well, Well, Well….. So I decided to finally update my blog!!! Its Been long over due!!!!!!

So many things have been going on since I last blogged. … so Ill start at my Breakout Birthday Bash!

I want to THANK SO MUCH to Michael Daevid for the party that they threw for me for my Birthday.  It was AMAZING!  Thank you to everyone who went to this incredible event.  WOW what a night!  Limo, drinks, food, Karaoke, listening room with my upcoming cd playing, giftbags, an amazing house….and AMAZING FRIENDS!!!  Thank you Shelbie for your generosity and home.  I’ve always said that I take great pride in the friends that I have and It’s true!  I feel truly loved by the people in my life!  The following quote is taken from the song “For Good” from the the musical “Wicked” (and from Michael Daevid’s upcoming broadway cd “Unlimited”. ) “I've heard it said…That people come into our lives for a reason…Bringing something we must learn…And we are led…To those who help us most to grow…If we let them…And we help them in return…Well, I don't know if I believe that's true…But I know I'm who I am today…Because I knew you!  But because I knew you, I have been changed for good!“   That quote really sums it up!  I am who I am today because of all the people that have come into my life! YOU!  THANK YOU !! Go take a look at the pics on my MYSPACE !

My good friend Mandy came out for a few days – Had a BLAST!!!!!!!!!!!  You get you Blond Mafia Ass back here!!!!  Blackmail Pictures are online on my MYSPACE – hahaha…. Ok maybe Ill just keep the blackmail ones to myself.

Since Heidi moved and took her cat Callie (Miss you guys!  Hope all is well!!! ), I decided to get a new kitten to keep NaNook company… She was born on April 7^th.  Her name is “Riesling”.  She’s a crazy kitten! Very playful and very loving!   NaNook finally got use to her after a couple weeks.   Go look at her pics on my MYSPACE !

I’m currently finishing recording my album….  Work work work…… Its been an amazing experience! Thank you Michael!   Keep a look out – We may put clips online soon on my MYSPACE !

It’s been an amazing, crazy year so far…. From the people I’ve met, to recording, to promotional events such as celebrity skyboxes at the Garth Brooks and Bon Jovi Concerts, to my breakout birthday bash, parties, new pet, friends visiting,… and it just keeps going......  None of this would have been possible if it wasn’t for my friends, Michael and his Publicist Shelbie! THANK YOU!!!!!!

This is only the beginning … the year has just started!!! Just wait – big surprises to come!!!!!

 

Well Its 2008, the start of a new year.  I decided it would be good to do a update, since I havent done one since Halloween.

Well, where do I start...  So Hollywood is on strike..... uuuugghhhh! It's been slow acting wise but I've been able to keep myself busy during this time.  I met an amazing friend name Michael.   Very talented guy!  He helped me record a song that I wanted to do for a friend of mine, Carla.  I changed the song "Hey There Delilah" to "Hey There Carla".  I changed the lyrics so it wouldn't be a love song - but a friend song.  With Michael's talent, he produced, engineered, and directed me through the process.  Couldn't done it without him! Thank you Michael!

I got to go up north to Santa Barbara to stay with my friend Heather's house.  I got to see her family and my godson.  Great Time!  I went home for Christmas for about 2 weeks.  It was an amazing time - being with my Family and friends.  The weather was good.   Wasn't too cold and we had a nice snow fall!!  It was great to see my friends.  You can check my pictures to see some from Christmas.  During that time I got to give my CD of my song to Carla... She loved it.  It was great.  I am soo gracious to have amazing friends and family.

Since I've been back – I'm been working hard on recording new music.  Because of Michael's help and belief in me... he's allowed me to work on a demo. With all his hard work and pushing me - it will be given to a couple huge record companies.  So that's really exciting and amazing!  So we will see what happens.

I also had an amazing opportunity to go to Garth Brooks charity concert in Los Angeles.  That was fun.  I got to go in a limo and watch to show in a celebrity skybox with some amazing friends!  Thank you so much Michael, Chelby, and Atlantic Records for your generosity. It was a great cause and for you guys to ask me and allow me share it with you - Wow! Thank You!!!!

So, from what it sounds like, the writer's strike should be ending soon - hopefully by the end of Feb.  I really feel good about 2008.  2007 was a huge year for me growth wise.   I'm soo excited to be able to put forward what I've learned and to grow even more. 2008 – HERE I COME!  HIT IT!  I couldn't be more blessed.  God, what amazing people are in my life to get me to where I am today! What I mean by that is, to make me the person that I am.  My family - for their upbringing, support, love - just to name a few.  To my friends that also have supported me, stood by me, and love. To everyone!  To the people in my career that have taken a chance on me. Like my Agent and Managers to Casting directors... to people I meet on the sets.  Wow - I Thank you ALL!

I really wouldn't be here, as a person, without any of you in my life!  It makes me so proud to know each and every one of you.  I take great pride in my friends and family!  I really do!  Thank you! I Love you!  Oh yeah – Can't forget about my cat NaNook!!  No matter what I do, no matter how I look, no matter how late I come home - SHE LOVES ME TO DEATH!

2008

Onwards and upwards.....

 

 

 

 

So I got to see Spider-man 3 tonight at a special cast & crew screening.  It was very surreal experience.  I mean I have it watch a couple more times to fully enjoy it.  Because right now Im like - wow... I worked on this....or I was doing "this" during that shot... Im in that shot.... I remember that was the day when... Thats me....and all that jazz.  Its crazy to work on such a HUGE movie and then sit back and watch it... it really is. Now that I got that out of the way.... I really enjoyed the movie!!  2 thumbs up!! Non stop action !! Just an enjoyable film!! Now,  Which out of the 3 movies is my favorite... hmmmm I dunno I need to see this one a couple more times.... its between 2 and 3.   But like I stated before, Im still in the surreal stage! So Go Out And See It On May 4th!!! Oh, and one more thing... scream and clap when you see my name in the credits.. it's under Tobey's Stand-in.  Kind of bummed I didnt get one for my stunts.  But from seeing what other people got credit for and what others didn't... I think they gave out 1 credit per person.?! I dunno?!? Anyways - tell me your HONEST thoughts on the movie!   Chad Cleven
