Celebrites Visit The Southern Women’s Show
The 2008 Show in Jacksonville features Cristián de la Fuente, Jason Earles and HGTV’s Garage Sale Lady.
JACKSONVILLE — The Southern Women’s Show returns to Jacksonville’s Prime Osborn Convention Center October 16-19 with a star-studded line up that features the opportunity to get up close and personal with the hottest celebrities. The highly anticipated annual event designed specifically for women features dancing hunk Cristián De La Fuente, Hannah Montana’s Jason Earles and HGTV’s Garage Sale Lady Shelley Kincaid.
In addition to the star-studded roster, the consumer show features fashion shows, cooking demonstrations, beauty tips, health screenings, decorating ideas and personal growth opportunities — all tailored especially for busy women.
The 2008 guest line up:
Dance with Cristián De La Fuente. Hunky hoofer Cristián De La Fuente sizzled on the recent season of ABC’s Dancing with the Stars, and Jacksonville audiences will get the chance to get up close and personal with the actor and one of People Magazine’s 50 Most Beautiful on Saturday, October 18.
Cristián de la Fuente’s work continues to show his versatility as both a comedic and dramatic actor. He stars as Rafael Ramirez in the USA Network series, In Plain Sight.â€He is a Dominican shortstop that plays for the New Mexico Isotopes that gets called to play for the Marlins. Ramirez is Mary Shannon’s boyfriend played by Mary McCormack. She is a U.S. Marshal working in the highly secretive branch of the witness protection program who relocates Federal Witnesses.
Cristián stared in Univision’s Como Ama Una Mujer (How a Women Loves), the five-hour musical, drama, mini-series executive produced by Jennifer Lopez. In the sixth season of ABC’s hit show Dancing with the Stars, de la Fuente lit up the dance floor with his partner Cheryl Burke finishing in the top three.
Meet Hannah’s Big Bro. Get up close and personal with actor Jason Earles, who portrays Miley Cryus’ older brother on Disney’s Hannah Montana show. He’ll answer questions and meet and greet fans on Sunday, October 19. Before landing his current role, Jason was in “National Treasure” as Thomas Gates, the stable boy who discovers that America’s Founding Fathers hid the “Knights Templar Treasure”. In 2005, Jason got the part of Jackson Stewart (Miley Stewart / Hannah Montana’s older brother) where he gets a chance to not only display his comedic talents, but to use the “southern accent” that the California native learned during his theater training.
Garage Sale Lady. An HGTV favorite known to fans as “The Garage Sale Lady”, Shelley Kincaid will educate guests on finding treasure among trash and making thousands of dollars through garage sales. Author of The Garage Sale Decorator’s Bible, she makes it easy to save money when it comes to home decorating. With garage sale season in full force, Kincaid’s book helps budget-conscience decorators turn unusual objects into designer décor for pennies.
Not the average garage sale junkie, Kincaid hits hundreds of garage sales a week, traveling from coast to coast in search of unique items that can be transformed into fabulous décor. “Garage sales supply a perfect outlet for people looking to high-end decorate on a low-end budget,†said Kincaid. “If you’ve got passion and a creative eye, you can make great things happen for next to nothing.â€
Guests will learn how to find the best garage sales; different kinds of sales and what to buy at each; how to bargain effectively; how to find “diamonds in the rough†and more. “People have this crazy perception that there’s only junk at garage sales, when in reality people are often selling brand new things for pennies on the dollar,†said Kincaid.
Show hours are Thursday, 10 a.m. – 6 p.m.; Friday and Saturday, 10 a.m.– 8 p.m.; and Sunday, 11 a.m.–5 p.m.
