Forget Dancing With the Stars - last night Marie Osmond was seeing stars as the big thud heard around the world was her falling to the floor! I actually cried during the prolonged commercial break - hoping that Marie had not taxed herself with all that fancy hoofing. It didn’t help that I myself (another 40 something attempting to get into shape) had to lay down and meditate after a 30 minute romp on my treadmill! Did you see that Karl Lagerfield staged a $10 MILLION DOLLAR extravaganza fashion show on the Great Wall of China - a new high/low??? for the bling dynasty. Emerging growth markets are hot and consumers in China are setting the stage for further logo-driven growth. Our client Warren Donner New York (WD-NY) now has 15 branded stores throughout China and our client Fruits & Passion is concentrating on their own emerging growth in Asia with eight boutiques and over 80 employees racking up profits for the brand much faster than Marie can rack up enough sympathy votes to Samba herself into the finals. Stay tuned I soon be dancing my way back to you again…Blah…Blah…Blonde
