Luann De Lesseps Bringing Holiday Show “Countess Luann: Christmas with the Countess” to Mystic Lake December 4 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE LUANN DE LESSEPS BRINGING HOLIDAY SHOW “COUNTESS LUANN: CHRISTMAS WITH THE COUNTESS” TO MYSTIC LAKE DECEMBER 4 Tickets on Sale July 30 PRIOR LAKE, Minn. – July 23, 2021 Reality star Luann de Lesseps is bringing her holiday cabaret show “Countess Luann: Christmas With the Countess” to the Mystic Showroom at 8 p.m. Saturday, December 4, 2021. An original cast member of one of the most successful franchises in television history, “The Real Housewives of New York City,” Luann de Lesseps was just ranked the No. 1 Housewife by TV Guide, topping all 46 housewives across all franchised cities. The hit show is now in its thirteenth season but Luann is just hitting her stride. The model-turned-Countess has transformed herself into an author, philanthropist, actor and bona fide cabaret star. Recently, de Lesseps started packing venues with her show, #COUNTESSANDFRIENDS, to rave reviews from venerable publications such as Vanity Fair and The New York Times. #COUNTESSANDFRIENDS is filled with hilarious stories, one-of-a-kind anecdotes, and songs in her inimitable style. Alongside Grammy nominated musical director Billy Stritch, Luann has performed on an all-star bill at New York City’s Town Hall with icons Liza Minnelli and Chita Rivera, to name a few. She has also performed with the legendary Natalie Cole. Her globally known dance hits “Money Can’t Buy You Class,” “Chic C'est La Vie" and "Girl Code” resulted in her own Pandora station, and her hit tracks lift audiences to their feet when she performs them live. Just ask uber fans Jennifer Lawrence and Chrissy Teigen, only two of the well-known admirers of the Countess. When not on “The Real Housewives of New York City,” Luann can be seen on programs such as “TODAY,” “The View,” “The Talk,” “Dr. Oz,” “Wendy Williams,” “E! Entertainment,” “Steve Harvey,” “Access Hollywood” and, of course, “Watch What Happens Live.” She also has appeared in scripted series such as Hulu’s “Difficult People” and “Law & Order: SVU” alongside Mariska Hargitay. Luann also believes in giving back and has worked with many charities, including God’s Love We Deliver, The American Cancer Society, GLAAD and ACE Partnership for the Homeless. Along with her children Victoria and Noel and their dog Aston, de Lesseps splits her time between her homes in New York City, Upstate New York and the Hamptons, the latter of which was featured in Architectural Digest. She continues to tour, can currently be seen in the thirteenth season of “The Real Housewives of New York City,” and is working on a follow-up to her successful first book, “Class With the Countess.” For more information, visit countessluann.com.

  • 2015 Annual Report 6 Match Stories
    HAVING SOMEONE IN THEIR CORNER CAN CHANGE THEIR WORLD. 2015 ANNUAL REPORT 6 MATCH STORIES 24 AFFINITY GROUPS 26 COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS 28 SPECIAL EVENTS 32 IN OTHER NEWS 34 PROGRAMS 36 GENEROUS DONORS CHANGE THEIR WORLD. CHANGE THE WORLD. If we take a moment and think back to when we were growing up, most of us would probably remember someone being there for us – in our corner. Someone who was always ready to give us advice, support, encouragement, and all the other things we needed to help us become who we are today. Unfortunately, when thousands of kids living in New York today look over their shoulder, there’s no one standing in their corner. That’s why we believe having a Big in their life is so important. Through one-to-one mentorship, our Bigs fill that empty corner in a Little’s life with friendship, caring, understanding, and guidance. They share life experiences and new experiences. But mostly, they help them see that the world they’re living in now doesn’t have to be their world tomorrow. When Littles know they have someone standing in their corner, it can really change their lives. For some, that means going from barely passing grades to being accepted to college. For others, it’s being exposed to career options their parents never had. Or it’s having a friend to help them understand a new language and explore a new life in America. We wouldn’t be able to put a single Big in a Little’s corner if it weren’t for all of the volunteers, community partners, and donors we have in our corner.

  • Here's Why Most New Network TV Shows Will Flop
    September 2019 #74 __________________________________________________________________________________________ _____ Here’s Why Most New Network TV Shows Will Flop By Steve Sternberg These are the best of times for TV viewers, but it might be the worst of times for broadcast TV. The mortality rate of new broadcast series is higher than ever. Out of 68 new primetime scripted series premiering in the 2016/17 and 2017/18 seasons, only 11 (16%) will still be on the air in fall 2019. Here are some thoughts on the whys and wherefores. The new TV season is not as relevant as it used to be. Prior to the early 2000s, the new fall TV season was one of the few entertainment topics discussed throughout the summer on syndicated TV shows such as Entertainment Tonight, Extra, and Access Hollywood, and print magazines such as People, Us, and Entertainment Weekly. The broadcast networks aired mostly repeats, cable networks contained mostly off-network reruns and reality, and except for the occasional movie blockbuster or celebrity scandal, there wasn’t much else to focus on. But that was before original scripted series started proliferating on various cable networks during the summer months, and before more than half the country subscribed to at least one streaming service. The new broadcast season simply doesn’t get as much press as it used to. There are new scripted series available to viewers year-round. A Sternberg Report Sponsored Message Unrivaled Reach. Delivered Daily. ION Television gives you access to 100+ MILLION HOMES and growing, including OVER THE AIR.

  • The Digital Money Shot: Twitter Wars, the Real Housewives, And
    CELEBRITY STUDIES https://doi.org/10.1080/19392397.2018.1508951 The digital money shot: Twitter wars, The Real Housewives, and transmedia storytelling Jacquelyn Arcy University of Wisconsin-Parkside, Communication Department, Kenosha, WI, USA ABSTRACT ARTICLE HISTORY This article examines the construction of reality TV fame through Received 15 June 2017 transmedia storytelling. In the convergent TV era, reality producers Accepted 16 January 2018 increasingly require that stars post-personal content on social KEYWORDS media, blogs, and online video sites. Rather than hire transmedia Reality TV; celebrity; content creators, television networks incentivise stars to generate transmedia storytelling; their own digital texts by placing them in competition with their gender co-stars for attention, status, and salary. This new industry strategy seeks to cut costs while extending viewer engagement. In the reality TV emotion economy, where the most effective path to fame involves dramatic self-disclosure, stars are representing the hyperbolic performance of misery, jealousy, and resentment online. Just as reality producers rely on participants’ performance of the ‘money shot’–a televised moment of emotional upheaval – the convergent TV industry requires a ‘digital money shot’–an online performance of dramatic emotions that drives transmedia engagement. To begin mapping the contours of the ‘digital money shot’, this article examines the multi-platform world of Bravo’s reality docu-soap franchise, The Real Housewives, and the prevalence of the Twitter war, a social media feud used to draw viewers to new media sites. This practice illustrates how performa- tive emotions and self-disclosure form the basis of Bravo’s trans- media strategy for The Real Housewives franchise.
