What do you
think when you hear or see the word Hollywood?
Glitz, glamour, fame, fortune?
All of them of course!
And what about the iconic Hollywood Walk of Fame? It was created in 1958 as a tribute to artists and other significant
contributors within the entertainment industry with the first star to be
permanently installed being that of director, Stanley Kramer. Honourees receive a star based on their achievements
in motion pictures, live theatre, radio, television, and/or music, as well as their
charitable and civic contributions.
And now in
Second Life we have our very own Hollywood and walk of fame presented by non-other
than the inimitable Ivy Maverick in conjunction with the ever magnanimous Ramses
Meredith, who is also responsible for the sim design. Way to go you two, it is stunning.

Yes, yes, I
hear you! What in heaven’s name is
Hollywood in Second Life? Well I asked
Ivy exactly that.
So Ivy tell
us how - the event - come into being?
“I have
wanted to branch out from Hunts and do an event, something that would be fun
and different. “
What is the
purpose of - the event - ?
“The
Purpose is to bring brand exposure to our Designers and show the residents new
releases and walk away with a representation of each and every store by way of
a "Swagbag" gift. It is also to
honor some of our Famous Designers, Bloggers, Photographers, Models, and DJ's. “
What is the
significance of Hollywood as the theme?
“I am from
California and used to Rollerblade on Hollywood Blvd and go to the theater with
my grandparents. It's a place near and dear to my heart. It's a place you can be discovered and
possibly have your dreams come true. So much Movie star history is there.”
Are there
going to be fashion shows and special events within the event itself?
“We will
have the BOSL Fashion show of some of the new releases featured for the event
on Saturday March 30th 10;00 AM SLT and 2;00 PM SLT.”
How many
'events" will be held each year or is this purely a one off thing?
“We are not
sure at this stage, it could be just once off or if we feel inspired we could
do another "location"”
How many
designers are involved in - the event -?
“There are
80 designers participating in the Hollywood event and each was required to make
one new release to be released specifically at the event and also make one “swagbag”
gift available.”
I took
myself along to the Hollywood sim to play paparazzi and have included some pics
here. I have to mention I saw Dean Ashby
of Redgrave sporting a very interesting look, nudge, nudge, wink, wink…. Not sure that I would have been very popular
if I had published it though.
If you are
looking to glam up your wardrobe, or even if you are looking for your 15
minutes of fame then a visit to –the event – Hollywood has to be on your to do
list, you never know what could be around the corner.
