FHM Lingerie Special 2008

Maybe I’m just behind with the times. However, I recently merged my VivaDivas.com modelling industry blog with my personal blog, to bring more readers into one place. And it seems to be working. Maybe you wondering what does Ramon Thomas, a professional speaker, have to do with models or the modelling industry? One of my unknown accomplishments was being the life coach to Tatum Keshwar, Miss South Africa 2008/2009. And I’ve seen been in discussion with other like South African supermodel Tanit Phoenix, and lesser known models.

In the FHM Lingerie Special 2008, shot at Bishop’s Bay, the Vaal, South Africa.Featuring Lyndall Jarvis, Rosette Mogomotsi, Jennifer Pietersen and Catherine Reiter. So if you wanna get into FHM and believe you need some coaching. Call me on 082 940 7137 for a friendly chat.

Missing Children SA – We need your help…

From Judy Botes @ Missing Children SA

missing children saFor the December holidays 22 children were reported missing to Missing Children SA. Fortunately – together with SAPS – 19 of these children have been recovered. Since official statistics were started in 1994 OVER 900 OF THE CHILDREN REPORTED MISSING IN SOUTH AFRICA, HAVE NOT BEEN RECOVERED. Experts believe that this number will increase this year, especially with the upcoming 2010 FIFA Soccer World Cup.

Unfortunately the reality is that the recession is taking its toll, not only on corporates, but on charities, like us, as well.

YOU CAN HELP!

Your donation – no matter how small – will assist us in continuing our efforts to find missing children. HELP US BRING OUR MISSING CHILDREN BACK HOME!

Joburg Tweet-Up Name Tags and Event Tweets

Received this email from the eminent Ryan A. Gibson, organiser of Joburg Tweet-ups

This is our second tweet-up (#JHBtweetup) and it is looking great for attendance. I want to welcome the new members as you have helped this group double in size.

Please send your twitter name to me so that I can prepare your name tags for the event. You can email it to ryan@publishknowledge.com or DM me @ryanagibson.

Also, for the sake of helping market the event I would appreciate a tweet either letting people know about the tweet-up which people can register or letting people know you are going. If your friends know your going, then you might have more friends go as well. Its nice to see familiar faces, and if you invited them… they come there to meet you. So its a nice thing to remember to do, just let your followers know your coming. If you registered No for the event and can’t make it, a tweet would still be appreciated. Hopefully you can manage to find a way out of that other party… this one will be better :)

Sincerely,

@RyanAGibson

It is a tweet-up, I will ask MLM people to leave…if you prospect. If I hear one independently wealthy working towards being a millionaire… Kidding, but be respectful if you are. Thanks. It is for twitter users… not MLM.

Shashi Sashi Naidoo model actress business woman Chiropractors Port Elizabeth born femaleSo there FHM is, partying up a storm in Jozi with SA’s finest VIPs. Next thing, Sashi Naidoo comes over and mentions that she wouldn’t mind checking out our bedroom technique. Now don’t get us wrong, FHM has killer bedroom technique, but when a lady is that keen to work with you, it can be a tad intimidating. Fortunately we rose to the occasion, and – as you can see here – the results are as magnificently sensual and seductive as only a union of true professionals can be…

When a certified A-lister of the calibre of Sashi Naidoo invites you to her hotel room, you bring your camera – trust us. What we snapped made us put Sashi on the cover of this month’s FHM and have her headline FHM VIP List 2010, our list of the most desirable lady celebrities in the land. These are the women whose presence at an event guarantees success, glamour and media worship. And in their vanguard, Ms Sashi Naidoo: model, actress, businesswoman…
