Press Release Body = Hollywood - The word got out that Hollywood publicist Toni
Shelton moved from Chicago to Hollywood, and rising stars have kept her cell phone
ringing with requests for help to bring success to their careers.

They know her reputation and know they need an experienced mentor who can guide
them, and help them avoid the traps that prevent so many hopefuls from ever finding
success.

Shelton has learned from her own career as a model and actress, and she has taken
her experience and helped to teach and guide others to success as well. The growing
number of rising stars that she represents are a testimony to her ability to not
only serve as a publicist, but to be a mentor as well.

Shelton is an industry expert who has worked as a model, photographer, agent,
manager, and now helps others achieve their dreams. All four of her children are
working models and actors.

Her book \"Rising Stars, An Inside Guide to Breaking into the Entertainment Industry\"
breaks down every aspect of the business and offers a realistic method needed to
succeed.

"I teach the essentials, such as building the right relationships with agents,
managers, photographers, stylists, makeup artists, and others. Your preparation and
attitude are key ingredients to success," explained Shelton.

Rapper, actor, model Dave Dylan is just one of the many rising stars rely on the
talents of Shelton.

"Toni Shelton is the hottest Hollywood Publicist, and she also knows how to help me
with all aspects of my career. She has helped me gain success, and avoid mistakes I
would have made if I was doing it on my own," said Dylan.

Shelton also has a big heart, and is well known for her philanthropic efforts. She
was presented the "2001 Women Who Make A Difference Award" presented by the Make a
Difference Youth Foundation. More recently she helped organize places for Hurricane
Katrina victims to live, and even let victims move into three of her own houses.

Through many ups and downs she paid her dues, learned the ropes, and found success
for herself and is now helping others achieve their dreams. It is no wonder that
many rising stars are coming to her for help.
