grand_opening_ribboncuttingLaguna Beach, California. July 8, 2009.  Left Turn Jewelry designer, Judy Klimek, opened her doors for business this last weekend to an excited crowd of admires. “The response from the public has been overwhelming. We have already had admires bring their friends and families in the gallery too,” says Judy Klimek.

The highlight of the weekend was a ribbon-cutting ceremony welcoming Left Turn to Laguna Beach. Neighboring businesses have also helped by passing out announcements, posting them on their windows and sending over their customers. “The community spirit couldn’t be higher or stronger,” reports Left Turn spokesperson Liz Wilkes. “In fact, some of our first customers have been our fellow business owners here on Forest Avenue. This just shows us that Left Turn has found the right home, or in this case a home on the Left.”

PRO CHEER DANZ DEBUTS WITH FASHION SHOW ON JULY 3 AT SUTRA LOUNGE

pro_cheer_danzCOSTA MESA, Calif. (June 29, 2009) – Veteran actor/director and Costa Mesa resident Derick Alexander  along with his sister former Oakland Raiderette Roxanne Alexander-Pringle are teaming together to create the next big thing in reality television: Pro Cheer Danz. And on July 3, Derick will be filming a fashion show segment for the pilot at OC’s hottest nightclub, Sutra Lounge.

Pro Cheer Danz is hell bent on discovering America’s next break out star — like former cheerleaders Paula Abdul and Teri Hatcher. The show chronicles the lives of seven amateur cheerleaders who compete in cheer and dance routines, hip hop dance with celebrity rap artists, an acting competition as well as both fashion and swimsuit calendar modeling.

On July 3, Pro Cheer Danz contestants will be modeling designer fashions provided by stylists Eddie and Kirsten Prosser of Corona Del Mar’s onQuestyle. Celebrity guest judge Bonnie-Jill Laflin and co-host Amanda Latona will be wearing custom made collection pieces by up-and-coming OC designer Oday Shakar. Dramatic gem stone jewelry is being provided by Left Turn Jewelry.

Pro Cheer Danz co-host Amanda Latona will emcee both the red carpet walk and the fashion show. Formerly a professional pop music singer and dancer, Latona is a two-time Model America champion and 2008 Flex Bikini Model Search contestant. Amanda was also recently featured in the June 2009 issue of Muscle and Fitness magazine.

The Pro Cheer Danz pilot also features celebrity guest judge Bonnie-Jill Laflin, who is currently the first and only female scout in the NBA for the LA Lakers. She is also a sports broadcaster on ESPN and has been voted one of Maxim’s Hottest 100 Women in the World. Bonnie-Jill has danced and cheered for the Golden State Warriors, Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders and San Franscisco 49ers.

“Our contestants are truly the stars of the show,” says Pro Cheer Danz co-creator and director Derick Alexander. “My sister Roxanne and I have worked hard to put together a diverse group of highly-spirited and talented individuals who are each uniquely gifted. It will be exciting to see it all come together as we explore each segment of the show.”
