Press Release Body = February 22, 2007 Beverly Hills, CA The shiny gold guy with the bald head does not have to be the only one who shines on Oscar night.
Emmy award-winning broadcaster and author Lena Nozizwe declares that this season of glamour and glitz is the perfect time for all of us to bring out our own star qualities.
"Don't just gaze at the stars, be one," says Nozizwe.
The author of the motivational book, Starring in Your Own Life: Reveal Your Hidden Star Quality and Make Your Life a Blockbuster Hit!(ISBN 0-784-87308-7), published by Simon & Schuster knows what's she's speaking about.. Her map to the stars guidebook features some of Nozizwe's own Ugly Betty moments as she outlines how she made the transition to swan.
Nozizwe says Hollywood doesn't have to be all about sex tapes, paternity tests and shaving off your hair.
"Why not look to the stars for inspiration and life lessons?" Life Lesson #1 -Don't Listen To Your Critics If Jennifer Hudson had gone quietly into the night after Simon Cowell's lacerating comments on American Idol, she would not be about to experience the most exciting night of her life. So why should you give up if someone puts you down?
Life Lesson #2 -Try A Different Role On For Size When Helen Mirren first got the call to be The Queen she had second thoughts. If she stayed within her comfort zone she would not be getting ready to walk the red carpet as the nominee for Best Actress. Don't always play the best friend or villain. Actors are always looking to expand their range. Why don't you?
Life Lesson #3 -Create a Happy Ending, No Matter What Ellen DeGeneres is now revealing the secret that she was molested as a child. Such criminal and selfish attacks on children have destroyed countless spirits. Ellen has not only been able to smile through her trauma, she's brought joy to our lives as well. She'll do exactly that as host of this year's Oscars. Take control of your Lifescript. Write yourself a happy ending, no matter what.
Starring in Your Own Life is filled with specific ways we can all shine, whether it means looking the part, casting the right co-stars or finding our true motivation.
"We spend so much time worrying about what so and so is wearing to the Academy Awards and who he or she is dating we don't take enough time to make sure our own lives are stellar," says Nozizwe.
The Washington Post gave Nozizwe props as one of the most fashionable residents of the nation's capital. The San Diego Union Tribune called her "inspiring." The Pasadena Star News described her book as one of the few "hip" motivational books on the market.
You may have seen Nozizwe on CBS, SKY TV, BET or America's Most Wanted. She's been featured in Glamour, Cosmopolitan, Fitness, Complete Woman, First for Women, Malawi First and The Adventist Review.
Nozizwe was born in Malawi, known as the warm heart of Africa. The nation is now known to the world as the place where Madonna fell in love her newest child, baby David Banda.
It wasn't a pop star who got Nozizwe's family out of Africa. It was a television program. The pioneering reality show, This is Your Life featured Nozizwe's mother, Dr. Alice Princess Msumba Siwundhla.
Dr. Siwundhla came to the attention of the show's producers after she was adopted by American missionaries Lowell and Josephine Edwards (no relation).
