Update

Hello friends:)
These past two weeks have been absolute madness! Last week I had two red carept affairs (one for the Sirens society and the other the launch party for Bel Air magazine). I had a blast at both of them and got some great pics on the red carpte (see my facebook account ines garcia romero). The weekend I spent prepping for a 4 day shoot which Im not allowed to talk about just yet. I can say it was mayhem and SO fun!! OMG! I cannot wait to see these episodes. It was a trainwreck but a very funny one:) My kitty Rupert was of course front and center and made it into press photos as well as a little intro video. Im tellin 'ya the kid's got some real talent!
It was so nice to chill today and do almost nothing! Just lay on the sofa watching my derelect tv programms (intervention, hoarding and obsessed..man Im weird!). Can't wait to see my honey tomorrow after he's been out of town for 11 days. That's the longest we've ever been apart in the 2 years we've been together. My friend tried to get me into the daytime Emmy party tonight but Im almost glad he couldn't since Im beat and need a rest:)

Finale show

So..thursday the finale episode rolled across the screen in Denmark and we recieved record numbers and a season 2. People often ask me what it's been like to participate in the show and I will say that it's been overwhelmingly positive. My heart has been warmed many time by sincere and wonderful emails as well as kind well wishes. A small percentage has been quite negative and hard to swallow at times. It's never fun to read negative half-truths and completely fabricated stories about yourself in the gossip papers. It feels like a total violation but I understand that it's part of the 'fame-game'. Also, some people have become extremely jealous and channelled their negative feelings in very unproductive and hurtful ways. You really have to have nerves of steel and a tough exterior to allow yourself to be exposed in a show like this. I've learned the hard way that you really can only trust a very small group of people and simply MUST put up boundaries with the rest or they will steamroll over you with their own agenda and ego trips. It's all good. I do (like SO many of you write to me) have my legs solidly planted on the ground and know who I am. Regardless of rumors and hype, I am just me Ines.

Episode 9

Hi Friends.
Watching the 9th episode on thursday I felt really touched and proud of my honey Tony. I knew he really went all out preparing for his spectacular proposal, but seeing him selecting the ring and rehearsing with the band was just SO wonderful. I must be the luckiest girl in the world to have such an amazing man who loves me so much:) I also felt a little sad that the show is coming to an end soon:( I've had so much fun and grown so much closer to my mom in the process. I skype with her after every episode and she get's to ask 'behind the scenes' questions. When I was home a couple of weeks ago she even got to be in the finale episode! I truly hope there is a season 2 cause I already have tons of great ideas which would make great tv.
Meanwhile Im enjoying life in LA and have gone to a few red carpet events (see all pics on my facebook site ines garcia romero) and have a big meeting with an agent wednesday. I also have plans to participate in more tv projects in the coming weeks. Stay tuned!
