Last Sunday, we went to get our pictures taken for the NOH8 campaign at the United Methodist Church in Hollywood. Our friend D.C. Douglas created this incredibly moving video documenting the event (you’ll see us towards the end).
Video produced by D.C. Douglas. Music by Dona Oxford.
Thank you DC & Dona!!!
Please spread the word….

So if you love Real Girls and want MORE irreverent, girl-powered comedy that will take us BEYOND the familiar realm of shoe-shopping and boy-stalking, please consider making your TAX-DEDUCTIBLE donation today!
TEN BUCKS. That’s all we’re asking for (although more is always appreciated, and encouraged=)). That’s less than $1 per episode for the show hailed by critics from NPR to BITCH Magazine as the smarter, sassier more REAL alternative to the wealthy white world of the primetime fashionista.
We have until November 4th to reach our goal! And we are going to do it – but only with your help!
And to those of you who have already contributed – a HUGE thanks!
You make Real Girl’s a reality. xo-The Real Girls

Just wanted to introduce everyone to the newest member of the Real Girl’s support team… Tara Tomicevic, our intern!!! (That’s right we have an intern now, can you believe it?) And not only is Tara fantastically awesome & genius at all things “new media”…but she’s a seriously talented actor (check out her reel at www.TaraTomicevic.com)
Tara Tomicevic was born in Croatia and has lived in Italy, New York, Utah, Sacramento, and just graduated from UC Berkeley with a B.A. in Mass Communications. As a child, Tara switched dream careers every week: criminal lawyer, Ginger Spice, Beverly Hills plastic surgeon, NASA astronaut, wife of a Backstreet Boy, advertising executive, TV entertainment anchor, producer/director/writer/one-woman cast of Mrs. Doubtfire, and AC Milan midfielder. Once she realized that she was only interested in these careers superficially, rationality reared its gorgeous head and actor was the only career that made any sense at all. Tara is thrilled to finally be in LA! www.TaraTomicevic.com
Welcome aboard, Tara!!

So, as part of the grass roots endeavor that IS funding a web series…I’m going to start doing regular shout-outs to our awesome contributors as we head towards our fundraising goal.
This week I’d like to give a special mention to Arthur Jolly.
In addition to being totally adorable (and having this darling British accent which he does NOT take advantage of nearly enough), Arthur is also an award winning screenwriter and playwright. You can check out his many accomplishments at:
He’s also totally modest and specifically told me that I needn’t mention any of his upcoming performances…like his play The Four Senses of Love that will be at the Edinburgh Festival August 5-29…but doesn’t that just make you like him and want to promote him MORE? So clever, those Brits.
