Interviewing Vanessa Williams, star of Ugly Betty, Desperate Housewives, Grammy Award Winning Singer, movie star (Soul Food, Hannah Montana, the Movie) and all-around great beauty was such a joy and delight. Ms. Williams and Samsung Electronics America launched the first LCD Refrigerator with Apps like Google Calendar, Weatherbug, AP News updates, Epicurious.com recipes and much more to help busy families be more organized and avoid cluttering the front of their fridge.
Let me say that I was a tad nervous about meeting Vanessa Williams but she could not have been nicer or relaxed in being interviewed. I just enjoyed chatting with her and wished I had more time but I know these events means that the celebrity has to talk to many many outlets but she let me ask one more question. And for the record, she is just amazingly beautiful in person and her skin was smooth like butter. According to my friend, Shari from haveuheard.net Vanessa uses Perfect make-up, let me say that I am going to hunt that product down because her skin looked just plain beautiful. And a shout out to my videographer/photographer, Yakini from prissymommy.com and of course, I have to credit my blog husband Mitch from gaynycdad.com for suggesting that we have a someone else hold the video camera for us.
Chatting exclusively with Vanessa Williams about motherhood and her future plans, here are my questions from the interview:
- As a mom of 4, what is the one tip you can give moms on managing a busy household?
- How have you managed to keep your kids grounded living in Los Angeles, surrounded by the glitz and glamour of Hollywood?
- What’s next for you?
Disclosure: NYC Single Mom was not compensated for this post but hoping Samsung lets me review a dishwasher one day.
