Always looking for ways to anticipate the needs and wants of its growing audience and fanbase, Shadow Play Entertainment is excited to announce that artist, fashion designer and stylist Gail Ambeau is now a member of the family, both as a client and host of an exciting new show called 'FASHION FORWARD with Gail Ambeau'. The new 15 min. segment will debut on Friday, March 5, 2010 @ 1:30p.m. EST (12:30p.m. CST/10:30 a.m. PT) and continue each week at the same time.
"Gail and I have known each other and worked together over the years," says Cyrus Webb, President of Shadow Play Entertainment as well as executive producer and host of Conversations LIVE! Radio. "It has been great to watch her expand on her brand, and I am thrilled about being a part of her team as she moves her career forward."
A native of Toledo, Ohio but currently living in Jackson, MS, Gail Ambeau is definitely showing that she has the skills and staying power needed to be a driving force in the fashion and entertainment industry. In 2009 one of her garments was the key piece for national Gospel recording artist and Gospel Music Channel’s 2008 Gospel Dreams winner Melinda Watts debut video--- So Good. She also styled America’s Next Top Model (cycle 4) Tiffany Richardson for a photo shoot with celebrity photographer Derek Blanks and participated in the Florida Designers’ Expo.
But celebrity fashion is not all she is about. "I want to create more style options and multi functional pieces especially for real woman (size 12 to 22) so that they can look as good as they feel about themselves. I also want them to know that they can look just as good as the women who sometimes get all of the face time in the media or better," says Ambeau.
How has she maintained her drive and determination in spite of challenges in the business? The answer for her is simple. "With the support of my husband and family," she explains. "I have maintained my drive and focus because I want to be able to leave a legacy for my children and grand children. I want them to see that success has more than one path."
What can you expect from 'FASHION FORWARD' each week? "Gail is an expert in what she does," says Webb. "I want to work with her in getting the most out of her abilities." The show will allow Gail to talk directly to the public about what works and what doesn't in fashion, share interviews with those in the entertainment world as well as answer questions from the public. Segments have already been taped with Gail and fashion designer Chris March of BRAVO's Project Runway and Willie Taylor of Day 26. The public will be able to submit questions and thoughts directly to her through a special email, askambeau@aol.com. Gail will not only host the segment but co-executive produce it with Webb as well. The show will be heard at www.blogtalkradio.com/conversationslive.
What advice does Gail have for those who have a dream? "First, obey the voice of God. Be willing to stick with it through the hard times to make it to the other side and be willing to give up some things.”
