Update from Jane!

Hello everyone!
This summer has been non-stop action so far.  June was spent out with the other Go-Go’s, touring the US.  Thanks to everyone who came out to see us; it is so fun to see so many familiar and new faces.

I hit the ground running when I returned to my home in San Francisco with several fun family events (Happy SIXTIETH Birthday to my big brother Bob) and then drove down to LA to get my loft in Little Tokyo (downtown LA) sorted out.  Since I moved to SF I’ve been renting the LA loft out to a nice lady who works for President Obama.  She was just transferred to Chicago, so I now need to find a new tenant.  Check it out here, loftlivingla.com, and spread the word to anyone you know looking for a truly badass live/work loft in downtown LA!

When I got back from my landlady duties, I took off for Victoria Texas to work on 2 film projects with my buddy Anthony Pedone.  I acted in a new indie comedy film he is producing, ROUNDBALL.  In this video you can see what my character looks and sounds like for this movie.

We also worked on my debut directing/writing film project THE PYREX GLITCH.  We are in the editing and special effects stage, and I am having so much fun!  It’s not easy making movies without money, but this one, which will be a short film of about 25 minutes, is looking fantastic even though it is no-budg!  It is a sci-fi comedy, and I REALLY hope people will get my humor.  We shall see.  I will be entering lots of film festivals with it, in the hopes to get some recognition, and some WORK out of it.

I got home from Texas and a couple days later was back down in LA, meeting with different cable networks about an idea I have for a TV series.  This will be a lot of fun if we can get it made, so please keep your fingers crossed for me!  I wish I could tell you the show idea, but it’s still Top Secret until we get it sold!  It is a reality show (but not an icky mean one), and it does star me.  More details when I am allowed to divulge them!

Now that I’m having a WHOLE DAY at home (to pay bills, and write this letter) I am off to Sacramento tomorrow to be part of the California State Fair. I’ll be in Expo Center #5 signing autographs, taking photos and hanging out.  Friday July 29 and Saturday July 30 from noon to 6:00 PM. More info HERE.

On August 11, the Go-Go’s will be receiving our STAR on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.  I begged (and got my wish) that the star be placed on Hollywood Blvd at the corner of Cherokee Street, which is where the band started.  (This is where the Masque was, an underground punk club that we rehearsed at and performed our very first show at.)  I hope people will come out for the ceremony.  Details for the Star Ceremony HERE. To see a list of the upcoming Go-Go’s concert dates go HERE.

A few months ago I shot an episode of Ru Paul’s Drag U, and the episode will be premiering on Aug. 29, which is the day I get home from the second leg of the Go-Go’s tour, which resumes next week.  I can’t WAIT to see this TV show, I am hoping it will be VERY entertaining! More information about the show HERE.

Well, I think that is all the news I have for now!  Man, I’m exhausted just reading this back.  Life is BUSY…but GOOD. Thanks for all the love and support.  I am so lucky to have you as friends/fans! 🙂
xoxo
Jane
