Lucy Is In The House! Lucy Attends 2011 Xena Convention!

Well lookee who showed up at the convention today? :) Rock the house Lucy!

Gotta love Lucy - she not only says she loves the fans, she shows it. Class act! Given all the Spartacus PR work Lucy has done over the last month (and it was wall to wall Sparty PR - just look at the AUSXIP Spartacus site to see the work Lucy has put in), she would be right to take some time off before she starts work again - this time on No Ordinary Family but no, Lucy shows up. For the fans. To thank the fans.

2011 Xena Convention Update - Will Lucy Be At the Convention?

Today is the last day of the 16th Official Xena Convention.


ImageLucy rumours have circulating around the LAX Marriott around and around - you have the star of the show not present for the big party and there will be rumours of a surprise visit. Guaranteed. It's the Xenaverse, afterall and Lucy has just dropped in once before.

I don't think fans could forget the 2004 Xena Con where she surprised the heck out of Renee and the fans by popping up as the crazy fan with the unruly hair and denim jacket called Pat! Will Lucy be there to surprise Renee and the fans? Hmm..

There was a video shown by Sharon at the con where Lucy said she will be not be there because Julius and Judah had to start school.

So there you have it....

How Should Xena Have Ended by Lucy Lawless - Starpulse Interview 27 Jan 2011

ImageLucy was asked about Xena in a new interview with Starpulse. Here is the Q&A (and I agree with Lucy...X&G deserved to sail into the sunset and be happy).

I have to ask. A lot of 'Xena' fans are still very upset about the show’s ending. How would you have ended Xena if given the opportunity?

Lucy Lawless: I would have them sailing off into the sunset together. That way, people could dream about what adventures they would embark on next, as opposed to separating them forever. That was the most hurtful thing about 'Xena.' It’s a cool story if you think about it. In 'Spartacus' people are killed in the worst way all the time. It’s part of the show. However, it wasn’t right for 'Xena.' It’s such a shame to look back because it really hurt fans. People related to those characters in a unique way, creating a different kind of fandom. The 'Xena' fans are an incredible bunch.

An Update to the tweets about this gorgeous dog called Xena:

I received an email today from Heather about Xena! Yeay she's safe!:

The Generosity of Xenites - A Remarkable Auction For Brittney's Bra

ImageXena fans never cease to amaze me. We have our ups and we have our downs and our zigzags but one thing is as certain as the sun rises in the East: Xena fans are generous with their time and their money. It's one of the best things about this fandom and I love seeing it in action.

So having said that, I'm going to share an email I received from a mate at the con (with her permission). Ruth was there with all the other lucky peeps enjoying the con.

It was time for Brittney's performance and of course you can't have Brittney without having a mini auction. It has become a cherished custom at the con to have Brittney auction off her bra (while she is still wearing it). Having seen the last auction in 2010, it is a very competitive thing but you know she could be auctioning off her hair pin and it would still generate the level of giving (although the bra does have more of an appeal than a hairpin).

Here is Ruth's report:

"Just experienced the annual "charity free-for-all" for Brittney Powell's bra. People started the auction by bidding individually but that then turned into one side of the room vs the other side for total monies collected.

Our side had Linda from New Orleans leading... the other side of the room were last year's bra winners. After a heated contest our/Linda's side won with over $1400 dollars raised to the opposition's $1100+. I don't even remember what charity we raised the $$$ for but .... the Xena fans came thru with big bucks, even tho these are tight economic times."


** The picture I used was from last year's convention and it was taken by Paula Brathwaite (pmbpro)   - click here to see more of the pics from last year - while we wait for the pics of this year's con to come through **

Christie also reveals that there was a rumour that Lucy would make a surprise visit since she was in Los Angeles (she filmed the Lopez Tonight show on 27 Jan) although Spartacus doesn't start filming until April.

We'd heard a rumor that Lucy Lawelss might be making a surprise appearance, and we tried to confirm it. Sadly, it's definitely not true. She was in Los Angeles earlier in the week, but she's back in New Zealand, shooting Spartacus. Sorry, everyone!

Xena Convention Will Bring Out Weekend Warriors

xenagab.jpgXena' convention will bring out L.A. weekend warriors
Jan. 28, 2011 | LA Times

Although the series has been gone from syndication for more than a decade, "Xena: Warrior Princess" is still remembered for its feisty feminism and scantily clad leading ladies Lucy Lawless and Renee O'Connor - as well as the lesbian undertones that always added some pop-culture crackle to the show and stirred fan debates that still continue. The series unquestionably paved the way for more emotionally and physically powerful television heroines, and this weekend, around 500 fans of the show are expected to gather for the 16th  Official Xena Convention: The XVI Celebration, which kicks off Friday at the Los Angeles Marriot Convention Center near LAX.

Message From Renee For Convention Attendees

Creation Entertainment sent out the following note from Renee regarding the upcoming 2011 Xena Convention which starts tomorrow

SPECIAL ADVANCE TIP: DO NOT MISS RENEE'S STAGE APPEARANCE AS SHE HAS SOMETHING REALLY FUN PLANNED that YOU WON'T WANT TO MISS! ALSO, we have a special message from Renee about her workshop (which you can get tickets for at registration on Friday):

Hello Friends!

I have an incredible passion for bringing about the deep inner awareness I see in others, and helping people to trust this inner sense, allowing it to be the guide on a moment to moment basis. This work is a personal journey I have been on for the past seven years now, allowing me to see my desire to activate it even more on a global scale. My introduction class at the Xena convention is a mere glimpse into the deeper work we facilitate now around the world. If you choose to participate in this class, I do ask that you join the peer process created in the room, as Awareness works when we can recognize our willingness to look inward, deeply and honestly. I hope to see you there!

With Love,
Renee

Lucy in Amazon Leathers For NZ Skit Show Super City - Update

ImageImageOn 13 September 2010 I posted the news that Lucy made a guest appearance on Madeleine Sami's new skit show. In the show, Lucy wore her Amazon leathers from the Season 6 episode "Dangerous Prey" and looked great. Other than Lucy still looking in fantastic shape 10 years on from filming Dangerous Prey, the leathers were "borrowed" from Starship where Lucy had donated them for their auction to film the skit. She gave them right back and the leathers were sold for $5,110 NZ

Left (Lucy on Sami's new show) | Right (Lucy on Dangerous Prey)

Madeleine's new show is called Super City and it premieres on 11 February at 10 pm in New Zealand on TV3. We're not sure which episode Lucy is in but it's one of the six.

You can get more info on the show on their facebook page or on their TV3 site

Xena Returning to Australian TV in February 2011

Image

Our favourite warrior and her bard are back on Australian network TV. A decade ago Xena was on channel 10 where they sliced and diced the show. The show was able to be seen in on reruns on Foxtel Cable on TV1 for a long time but now she's back on network TV. This time she's on 7Mate - the new digital channel by Channel 7 which is catered towards guys (can't figure out how Xena figures into this unless it's the leather and blue eyes that gets them <g>)

Throng.com.au has posted the following info regarding the return:

Another classic TV show is coming to 7mate: Xena Warrior Princess. Xena begins on 7mate at 3pm Thur Feb 3, and continues 3pm daily. It will also be on at 3am from Monday (morning) Feb 7.

Xena Warrior Princess Eligible For Rod Sterling Award

Image'Star Trek: Voyager,' 'Xena' Lead New Eligibility List For Portal Awards

The annual Rod Serling Award remembers shows that have stood the test of time

A decade can be a long time for fans of a show that no longer is in production. But at least there's still a way to commemorate it.

Airlock Alpha has released the Class of 2001 -- shows that ended in 2001 and are now eligible for the Rod Serling Award.

The award, named after "The Twilight Zone" creator, is part of Airlock Alpha's Portal Awards, the online fan awards that have attracted more than a million votes since it was founded in 1999. The Rod Serling Award honors the shows that are still prevalent in the minds of fans, even after being off the air for at least a decade.

"Xena" put Lucy Lawless on the map. The actress would later make her mark in shows like "Battlestar Galactica" and "Spartacus: Blood and Sand," but she will always be remembered as Xena, which broadcast its finale on June 18, 2001.

Xena and Spartacus Writer-Producer Passes Away - Dan Filie

[Steven Sears, via twitter and Facebook, wrote: 'RIP Dan Filie, one of the unsung heroes of Xena/Herc. Dan was the Universal Studios executive who believed in the shows and fought for them.']

Writer-Producer Dan Filie Dies
4:27 PM 1/17/2011 by Mike Barnes

He penned and produced the screenplay for "Frankenhood" and co-wrote an episode of "Spartacus: Blood and Sand."

Dan Filie, a writer-producer and television development executive, died unexpectedly at his home in Studio City on Jan. 13. He was 56.

A spokesman for the family said Filie died of natural causes.

Filie served as director of current drama for NBC and senior vp drama development at Universal Television, where he was responsible for the creation of many TV shows, most notably the syndication hits Hercules and Xena: Warrior Princess.

More recently, Filie wrote and produced the screenplay for the 2009 feature film Frankenhood, a horror-comedy spoof, and co-wrote (with Patricia Wells) the "Old Wounds" episode of the Starz series Spartacus: Blood and Sand.

Survivors include his son Steven and his brother Nick.

Services will be held at 4:30 p.m. Tuesday at Forest Lawn in the Hollywood Hills. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital.

Review of Double Dare and Zoe Bell

ImageHere's a pretty good reviews of the documentary Double Dare and in particular super stunt woman Zoe Bell.

For those not familiar with Zoe, she was the stunt double for Lucy Lawless on Xena. All those flips and stunts were performed by Zoe and were just incredible to watch.

Double Dare Review
Posted on January 10, 2011 by Matt Gamble

For those of us who have seen Death Proof, Zoe Bell is more than a known commodity, she’s a frakkin superstar. As a film fan I love it when a movie can not only whisk me away to the universe they have created, but just as thrilling is when they can do something so amazing I can’t help but ask “How the hell did they do that?” More often than not, the answer exists due to the hard work of the stunt men and women who risk life and limb so the “stars” of the film don’t have to. But in the case of Zoe Bell, its not so much a matter of how she does it, but rather that she does it so much better than anyone else.

For the uninitiated Zoe Bell was initially known for being Lucy Lawless’ stunt double for Xena: Warrior Princess during its television run. Fresh off the success and acclaim for being able to pull off such difficult and athletic stunts on a weekly basis, Zoe set her sights on the US where she hoped to break in the film business.
