WILL THE REAL ANNA NICOLE SMITH PLEASE STAND UP ????

West Hollywood, CA - Tuesday, February 18, 2003 was no less than "Anna Nicole Smith Day" as Anna Nicole Smith herself, and over two dozen drag queens converged upon the city of West Hollywood, CA at the Abbey Restaurant, responding to the open cast call from Genesis Films for Anna Nicole Drag Queen look-alikes !

Celia Fox, writer/ producer/ actress and president of Genesis Films, staged the open cast call in an effort to complete casting for her independent production, Wasabi Tuna, a movie she describes as a "hip hop, techno, punk, mosh pit tale" of five friends and their journey to the annual West Hollywood Halloween Parade.

In her support, the City of West Hollwood officially declared the date, "Anna Nicole Smith Day." And states the Mayor Pro Tempore of West Hollywood, Steve Martin, "Besides that, where else but in West Hollywood could Ms. Smith and 50 drag queens fit right in?"

Production for "Wasabi Tuna" is scheduled to begin on March 8. The film's multi-cultural ensemble cast includes Antonio Sabato, Jr. ("The Big Hit"), Jason London ("Out Cold"), Tim Meadows ( "Saturday Night Live'), Barney Cheng ( "Hollywood Ending"), Guillermo Diaz ("200 Cigarettes") and Christian Keiber ("For Da Love of Money"). Alex Arquette ("The Wedding Singer") will play the role of drag queen, "Champagne Anna" and Anna Nicole Smith is cast as herself.

From gangsta' rappers to celebrities to special events, Jazzmyne has publicized a wide range of projects and personalities. Clients include the Tonight Show's bandleader, Kevin Eubanks; comedian, A.J. Jamal; child actor Michael Pagan from "How Stella Got Her Groove Back" and comedian J. Anthony Brown, co-host of the nationally syndicated Tom Joyner Morning Show just to name a few.

"I'm told that most small businesses don't make it past five years. I'm blessed to still be here and going strong!" asserts Makeda.
