Welp-- It's gonna be Sunset Boulevard Hollywood, California for me!! I would be supporting my AXE-- My Red Fender Strat- it has such great action!

Somewhere local where I have a better chance running into people who recognize me from the billboard. The product would have to be Trojan brand condoms. So not only would I have a good looking picture up in a familiar place where I'm seen by many but it would also plant the image in many minds that I am safe to have sex with. :-) January 25 Alicia Keys Fabulous singer/songwriter and now actress added to her resume was born in 1980 in New York City.

Tomorrow this Q ends For all responses-please scroll down page Nicole Cheshire England www.myspace.com/babybotox NICOLE SAYS: Defo Number 3! (Sunset Blvd.) It's a place I have always wanted to visit and I presume with me being a huge model I would get given free flights to see the finished product. I would love the product to be Coca Cola, cos then I could also be involved in a catchy soul theme tune, and if asked to taste the product and look happy about it. I wouldn't have to fake it! Unlike cat food or... Why you always make me daydream boy?! You know that if I was asked to pose it would more than likely be... "HOW SHE LOOKED BEFORE SURGERY" =D HAHA Steffers Concord California www.myspace.com/17540877 STEFFERS SAYS: New York, Times Square. Pic of me having fallen asleep with my son laying in my arms and the bible left open on my chest. Images of guardian angels surrounding us. Why? Because I feel a peace and protection since turning my life, my will over to God...this in turn will roll on to my child. He is always protected and hopefully will take the same path. Why location? That's where the most people would see it and perhaps inspire many. John Burkeman New York City www.myspace.com/johntheburkeman www.theburkeman.com JOHN SAYS: Times Square, New York. My drawings are the result of anger towards authority and society. I want to wake up the world in a half Irish and half Russian manner. Some are sick and vulgar where as others are disgusting and bloody. Enjoy them, because you won't come across the likes of them again. If you'd come in, it's hard to leave unmove'd. My art is not about pleasing you. I'ts to make you think about something else then the small world call'd home. What inspires me? One word... Guinness. hahaha One of John's pieces www.saatchi-gallery.co.uk/yourgallery/artist_profile/John+Burke/24362.html Gloomy Phoenix Arizona www.myspace.com/missgloomygirl GLOOMY SAYS: I would want to have my billboard in downtown London. I would want to promote the numerious musical projects of Mike Patton. He has a laundry list of projects including: Fantomas, Peeping Tom, Lovage, Patton Kaada, Patton W/ Rahzel, Patton and John Zorn and the now defunct Faith No More and Mr. Bungle. He's the most underrated singer of my generation. His voice is like velvet one moment, and can shatter glass the next. He can sing any- thing and makes it sound good. I am making it my mission to spread his gospel. Dave Canada www.myspace.com/davefilm2 DAVE SAYS: I would have to pick N.Y.C. Because its a great city, so it would be the best place to advertise. What product would I endorse? That would be some kind of Environmental Product. Why? If I could help change things for the better I would!!

(Scroll down for all responses so far) Tracey (aka The80sGirl) United Kingdom www.myspace.com/traceybibby TRACEY SAYS: Hey Jonathan! Well, I think I'd choose downtown London, basically because I'm from the Uk, and I would endorse some kind of nicotine replacement therapy - patches. If they work for me they'll work for anybody! Basically I think breaking the smoking habit is the best thing I've ever done, and I'd like to shout that from the rooftops! Lol Tracey xxxx Marie Atlanta Georgia www.myspace.com/reezzie MARIE SAYS: I would choose the product that has changed my life! I have suffered with migraines for 35 years and lost many relationships and jobs because of them. In 1993 I was prescribed the new drug Imitrex, and since then I have been able to raise my children, go to college, keep a job, and find love as well. I would want this on Times Square, New York City because I have been there once as a kid.

My product would be a pill to cure cancer. It would be in the form of alternative healing, so it would need a lot of exposure since the media wouldn't endorse it at first. After a while, the pill would be proven safe and effective to save lives. One can dream, right? Brenda & Dace Crandall Georgia www.myspace.com/bigstoreofstuff BRENDA & DACE SAYS: Hehe - thats easy - my husband would endorse IBANEZ Guitars!! Because he Is the Ibanez Guy!!

January 22 Willa Ford Singer Amanda Lee Ford was born on 22nd January 1981 in Ruskin, Florida.

She was able to score a Top 40 hit with the song "I Wanna Be Bad" however but subsequent suc- cesses have been at a loss. Officially dropped from her record company in 2004 and now makes occasional guest appearances on television. Was known among Back- street Boys fans as the girl who dated Nick Carter (in 1998).

Q Of THE WEEK: “IS THAT REALLY ME?” You have been photographed with a product that you support. Best photo ever taken in your life! You are proud. This is going to be put up on a billboard or side of a building in; 1. Times Square New York City 2. Downtown London, England 3. Sunset Boulevard Hollywood, California Where would you want it?

Cause that's the only time I'm gonna get next to him on a billboard or anywhere else!! lolxx June /Evil Barbie St. Albans United Kingdom www.myspace.com/1andonlyevilbarbie JUNE SAYS: As it would be supporting a PRODUCT, not a CAUSE I guess it would have to be me modeling an array of FAKE FUR coats. Though maybe not as warm as the REAL thing (a thermal layer under the lining can sort that!! ) a FAKE FUR looks just as beautifull , infact more so as the beautifull creature it belongs to has not been slaughterd to get it, whether it's a potentially endangered species such as the leopard or a sweet domestic cutie like a chinnchilla killed en mass for 1 coat. A REAL fur may look beautiful, but the person in it will always look ugly in my eyes!! And you must have no soul to be able to look into the big beautifull dolefull eyes of a baby seal and club it to death. To do that as a job you must be dead inside. Canada wake up ban it now!! As for where and why? Times Square as its winters are colder and I think NY'ers need to get the message more than us Britts, who enmass tend to be more animal friendly, but hopefully the billboard would be such a success that it would soon also be put up in the other two locations, plus others!! Michelle United Kingdom www.myspace.com/jovene MICHELLE SAYS: Times Square, New York.Why?- Because I Feel I have the quality to show people I care about my skin/and show people how much it will REFRESH and SMELL so good on others lives. Make an impact. The product would be-'BOOTS PRODUCT' from UK-called MEDITERRANEAN-ALMOND, PISTACHIO & MILK -BODY BUTTER. OH, and this product comes in soap. Has a range of products.....so it's GREAT! Believe me Jonathan...bye for now. I hope this will be a success. MICHELLE X January 18 Kelly Taylor Born in 1977 and raised in Houston, Texas, Kelly Taylor is one of the most well-known faces in the Asian market. KT (or Sai, as her close friends call her) is an actress with great versatility whose passion for the art of acting keeps her as a working actress in films and television. At the age of 4, she confidently declared that the entertainment industry would be her future. Encouraged by her mother, a business executive, she had her first taste of performing in school talent shows where she often hosted and perfo- rmed as an actor, singer, and dancer simultaneously. Her mother passed away when she was only 15 and Kelly concentrated on finishing school and making ends meet. Kelly found her inner strength through spirituality and it propelled her to being a successful Account Executive, selling computers to corporate America. As she refocused on her craft, comm- ercials and community plays followed ultimately leading to her being cast in her first TV Series. It was during this time that Kelly's musical talent was discovered and was offered a major contract with a prominent Italian recording label. Kelly turned it down to pursue the film industry. With this in mind, she packed her bags and headed to Hollywood to begin her professional career as an actress and has flourished in the Indie world. One of her pro- jects include an audience of over 1.4 billion currently airing on CCTV as a series regular in the Chinese national TV Series "The War of Gene" (2004). Performed her own stunts in "A Happy Ending (2005) and received a minor concussion from the 'chick fight' scene as a result. A chameleon who changes her look frequently. Her middle name Sayonara means good-bye in Japanese. Kelly's first week living in Los Angeles: she got ten parking tickets.

Q of THE WEEK: Continues. Scroll down to Monday Rozagy Birmingham London, England www.myspace.com/rozagy ROZAGY SAYS: Dear Jonathan, thank you for asking me such an intelligent question. The product I'd be happy to endorce is Clean Energy (what ever that may be, Cold Fusion, WindMills, Wave energy, Volcanic energy or something else, perhaps out of Space?) I believe the best place for it to be advertised would be Times Square, New York City (the world looks up to the US). Because it's the city of the future and at the forefront of cultural revolution. Besides, downtown London is dirty and not cool, and the life in London is too expensive for people to have time away from working all day just to survive to even think about anything else. But I could be wrong. I've never been to America, I only know New York from the movies. ALL THE BEST! Roza xx Anna United Kingdom www.myspace.com/jobren ANNA SAYS: Put me in the Times Square slot, and have me advertising headache tablets - as a result of all the head banging and air guitarin' I do when I listen to your show dude! Ax JONATHAN: LOL...I take that as a compliment Anna. :-) Diane Manchester England www.myspace.com/di1964 DIANE SAYS: The place would be London as I live in England, and as my work centers around skin care, the product I would choose is a factor 15 sun protection cream. I have seen first hand the damage the sun causes and consider that a worthwhile product to promote. JuliE aNNe United Kingdom www.myspace.com/julesdabomb JULIE ANNE SAYS: I Would like to endorse MOGANS SPICED, the best alcoholic spirit EVER!!!! I would love to be on display in Los Angeles cos it's about as likely I'll ever be there in person as I am GOING TO THE MOON!!!

Q of THE WEEK: "IS IT REALLY ME?" continues. Look below Brenda Lompoc California www.myspace.com/bybrenda BRENDA SAYS: I would have to say Times Square, New York City as the place. The photo would be a pin up for our troops. Posted on Billboard in the middle of Times square. Something to raise awarness and funds. Imagine if you will my services as a photographer donating photo sessions to deployed spouses. Taking the best photographs and using them to make calendars and the likes to raise money for care packages, calling cards and the much more for support of the support of the troops who are down range now. In my husband's unit right now were there are only 400 service men and women. Over 200 plus are deployed and more are to deploy in a matter of weeks. Leaving moral and spouses to suffer the loss of their loved ones. I am proud to be a military spouse, daughter, grandaughter and niece. I want to help make an impact on the lives of those who strugle day to day around me. By giving them something to cherish and raising money to bring families and single airmen a piece of home to them would help touch the lives of service men and women more then I could know. Thank you for a great question. JONATHAN: Actually Brenda, thank you for a great answer. Amber (aka Irish Eyes Don't Cry) Greensburg Pennsylvania www.myspace.com/irisheyessmiling AMBER SAYS: I'd want my picture to be with brain tumor survivors, and we would be endorsing life. It would be in Times Square, and I know it would be fabulous. :) That would be one hell of a picture don't you think?? Yes-JL Nikki (aka My Space Addict) Fresno California www.myspace.com/nikkithomas NIKKI SAYS: Hey Jonathan...Hmm...let's break it down here. Sunset Boulevard is out. People in LA/Hollywood are too fickle. No offense...but that's the true "Who Can You Help Me Meet" capitol of THE WORLD. I'm not shallow enough for all that. When they stopped liking me...it'd hurt my feelings. Besides...I haven't had any plastic surgery...and I think there's some sort of rule or ordinance that would PROHIBIT me from being on a billboard there, anyway... New York is my kind of place. Blunt, honest and to the point. Love it. 'Course...that's the "What Have You Done For Me Lately" city...and there's a lot of pressure in that alone. Additionally, I haven't had sex with any professional hockey players or seen what's underneath "The Donald's" toupee' so once again...I think there are rules and regulations that would keep me from being on display there. (I'm not sure...but I heard somewhere that Donald likes to give his own "Key To The City" to all the models there and as far as I'm concerned...if that were the case...that would make me wanna change my locks...if ya know what I mean. Yikes!) I'm gonna have to go with Downtown London. Why? Because I only wear Burberry perfume and I love Led Zeppelin and Howard Jones. And there ya' have it. Debby (aka Living Dead Girl) Phoenix Arizona www.myspace.com/phoenixlivingdeadgirl DEBBY SAYS: Hot Topic, because I actually shop there from time to time usually for lipstick or jewlery or something like that and hey, I'm a goth. It's one of the only places I will physically go rather than shop for on the net. I rarely go to stores at all. When I do go to the mall which isn't that often (I can go years without even driving by a mall let alone stepping foot into one) I always find my way there. I'd choose Time Square because it is known for its billboards more than anywhere else. People travel there just to see the billboards. Companies are very picky about what billboards even go up in that area and neighboring signs are constantly trying to outdo each other. To me it is the pinnacle of Western advertisment and would be a major deal to be used as a spokesperson there. January 16 Kate Moss The troubled 5' 7" model Katherine Ann Moss was born in 1974 in Addiscombe, Surry, England. One of the more controversial supermodels, primarily because of her unusually low weight during the early part of her career. (she typified the "waif" models). Her un- usual appearance (and possibly her willingness to appear nude, "It's just work") have, in a very short time, made her almost as widely recognized as Cindy Crawford. Was engaged to Johnny Depp at one time. Was on the first issue of Russian Vogue. Was on the cover of George magazine (April 1998). Net worth is estimated at 50 million (2005). Was named "The world's greatest supermodel" by the fashion industry and other supermodels on Ch- annel 5's search for "The world's greatest supermodel". Topped Vogue's list of "Best Dre- ssed Personalities in 2005". Her former fiancée Pete Doherty ranked #2 in the mens' list (29 December 2005). She is the best paid model in the world according to Forbes magazine in 2006. Spokesmodel for Stella McCartney. Spokemodel for Rimmel: London. Spokesmodel for Roberto Cavalli. Spokesmodel for Longchamp: Paris. She released her own picture book called Kate: The Kate Moss Story. Mentioned in Jewel Kilcher's song "Intuition".

(Scroll down to yesterday for full question) Photo: Tom Lawerance Mary (aka Tank Girl) Model Farmington Michigan www.myspace.com/hotpunkrockchick MARY (TANK GIRL) SAYS: If I had been photographed with a product that I support, the photo to me would not only be my best but show how the product is the best as well knowing, the product, for a long time and using it. Telling others about it, know lots of people who trust this product, sense it also come w/ a lifestyle/attitude, and yes brains!!! The product I would endorse? It probably would end up on some wall in England. Sense after all the product is GRINDERS STEAL TOE. One of my favorite's is called Raspberry Swirl. They're made in England, manufactured in England, and last forever. Affordable as well. I have 2 pairs and they're about 5-year's old and the sole and whole boot look's brand new. They are oil, water, resistant. Oh, they just do come in boot's/ shoes/ and lot's of other styles, as well. However I think it should be a billboard in New York. Sense the word needs to get out about this wonderful product. I have to order form site. And, now stores carries them. They're a wonderful product and showed me marked world wide at cost on net. If you would would like to see for yourself go to www.heelandsoleshoes.com Read and see for yourself. ~Nicky~ Germany www.myspace.com/despi73 NICKY SAYS: Eye-Make-Up WITHOUT Animal Experiments. Hollywood...New York or London...never mind which from this three places. The important thing is...even more people could see this. So much better for all the pets!! Alba Bama! San Jose Costa Rica www.myspace.com/changingforthebetter ALBA SAYS: Downtown London, England is my location, and my product should be Viagra for women. Don't ask why. ;) Alex Falkirk Scotland www/myspace.com/alextgirl ALEX SAYS: You know Jonathan, this has to be the first question you have asked that has had me struggling to come up with an answer. I'm not really an overly materialistic person, and no one city hits me as being more desirable than anywhere else in the world. I can't think of any product that gets me wishing I could be helping to sell excepting something relating to the clubbing scene which I love. I suppose I would be thrilled to bits if a top House/Trance DJ were to request using my photo to promote some of the top and banging clubs or gigs all over the world including the UK and Ibiza. So that would have to be my answer hunny, because I'm just a party type of girl to heart. Just as the dance tune goes, "My girl likes to party all the time". Luv, Alex. xxx Obsidian United Kingdom www.myspace.com/bombachom OBSIDIAN SAYS: If I was someone of any importance in this world or in the public eye, I would love to do one of those anti-fur campaigns for Peta! You know the ones thats say "I'd rather go naked than wear fur." Hope- fully I'd have my bits and bobs discreetly hidden behind something like a bunch of bananas Lol! I think I'd like it to be featured on a billboard in central London due to the increase in supermodels wearing fur and making it more popular in Britain again! Hopefully it would jog the memories of people such as Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss who once did this campaign and have since chosen to flaunt this message by wearing fur again because it is now back in fashion. I can honestly say I would only ever endorse something that would have a proper cause in the world! F**k Perfume F**K Clothes F**K Makeup There are more important subjects to advertise. :-) x January 15 Kobé Tai 5' 3" Carla Scott Carter was born in 1972 in Taipei, Taiwan. Although the ranks of Asian stars in the adult-film business has been growing, few have reached the status of Kobe Tai. She and Asia Carrera are probably the two most popular Asian women in porn, and it's a toss-up as to which one would take the #1 spot. Of Chinese/Japanese extraction, she was born in Taiwan and placed in an orphanage at an early age. Adopted by an American family, she was brought to the US and raised there. She broke into the adult-film bus- iness in 1996 under the name Blake Young (she also used the name Brooke Young). Her diminutive size (5'3") hasn't stopped her from working with some of the biggest stars in the business and she quickly became a fan favorite. She took time off in the middle part of 2000 to have a child, but returned in December of 2001, and is still going strong.

NEW Q Of THE WEEK: “IS THAT REALLY ME?” You have been photographed with a product that you support. Best photo ever taken in your life! You are proud. This is going to be put up on a billboard or side of a building in; 1. Times Square New York City 2. Downtown London, England 3. Sunset Boulevard Hollywood, California Where would you want it? Pick one and explain why? And, what product would you endorse? DJKaleidoscopeKimm Louisville Kentucky www.myspace.com/kaleidoscopekimm DJ SAYS: I must explain the product first. The product would be my remix album or compilation of Industrial/EBM bands and music. While I think that it would be great to have the billboard in New York and L.A., it would be most effective in London because there is a larger audience of fans in my genre there. ;-) Tori South London England www.myspace.com/liverpool_fc_no1 TORI SAYS: It'd have to be New York. Reason cos I've been there and I'd be chuffed to have my pic up there. I'd endorse cosmetics or toothpaste. Helen United Kingdom www.myspace.com/helen1712 HELEN SAYS: London - and the product would be a Charity that I would be trying to raise money for. Sam (aka Miss Pink) Liverpool, Merseyside United Kingdom www.myspace.com/growyourownpeach SAM SAYS: It would be an advert for condoms in N.Y.C. A cause I believe in (safe sex campaign) in a city that I would love to visit so I can see the billboard for myself and Times Square has loads of tourists so they could take my message home with them.

JANUARY 1-12: 50 BANDS, SOLO ARTISTS I HAVE DISCOVERED ON MYSPACE *Today ends two weeks-50 Bands/Solo Artists. Please scroll down entire page to catch up and preview some fine musicians. I am pleased with the success of doing this. The response was fantastic from both regular readers, and of course other musicians and the one's I chose. A & R people, do listen. There might be that jewel you are looking for. This was NOT a popularity contest. Rather, it was a sampling of musicians that I have supported on the radio, and some that although I might not play them, I still believed in their music. I w
