So you wanna be a REALITY STAR?

Come to the open casting call for the upcoming K-Town reality show. It’s happening this Saturday, April 24 , from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. at HQ Pictures (1635 N. Cahuenga Blvd., Los Angeles), the production company started by Tyrese Gibson. The producers will be looking for the most interesting, attractive, colorful Asian Americans to be cast in a reality show similar to Jersey Shore and The Real World. They’re particularly looking for people between the ages of 18 to 30 who are familiar with Koreatown life. From this casting session, the producers will select the final eight cast members. …

“Jersey Shore” Meets KTown?

Via 8Asians, casting has begun for a Koreatown reality series in the vein of MTV hit Jersey Shore. You’ve got your headshots ready, right? The show seeks: “…attractive Asian-Americans with lively, strong, and unique personalities between the ages of 18 to 30 with equally interesting life stories and perspectives to share, especially individuals who know about and/or experienced the Koreatown life. Translation: We want to exploit you as a vapid stereotype. Ka-ching! …

Give a little bit

I work in philanthropy, and our industry has been witness to a growing trend: the formation of giving circles. It’s a cool and sensible idea. You don’t have to be wealthy to make a difference, but you do need some like-minded family or friends. If you’re like me, you might make small impulse donations of $20 here, $50 there or $100 wherever. It feels good to do it, but each donation makes you realize how great the need is and that you don’t have enough to have an impact on everything that interests you. …

Se Ri Pak Ends Three-Year LPGA Title Drought

Se Ri Pak sinks a 10-foot birdie putt for the win. “It’s Britney, B—-.” Perhaps Se Ri Pak, 32, can borrow the intro line from the American pop singer’s 2007 hit comeback single, Gimme More. Just don’t call this a comeback. Some thought the game had passed her by. Some even wondered whether she had been obsoleted by younger, more powerful models. But on Sunday, the original Korean golf diva dusted off the ole’ clubs and showed the young lasses that, yep, she’s still got it. Her victory at the LPGA Bell Micro Classic in Mobile, Alabama ended the longest winless stretch—three years—of her career. Pak entered the final round at Magnolia Grove at 13-under 203, and in a three-way tie for the lead with Norwegian Suzann Pettersen and American Brittany Lincicome. After heavy rain suspended final-round play after just four holes, tournament officials decided to reduce the event to 54 holes, meaning the three co-leaders—Pak, Pettersen, and Lincicome—had to complete a playoff for the title. Pak clearly relishes those high-pressure situations, as she was 5-0 in career playoffs entering Sunday’s tiebreaker. As her younger opponents wilted under that pressure, the grizzled Pak calmly sunk a 10-foot birdie putt on the third extra hole to collect her 25th LPGA tournament win and show her doubters that she’s not yet ready for a final curtain call. …
