I Know Isabella Bricker, So I'm Famous Too!

On Tuesday night we huddled around a fire and watched American Idol. Who can resist those god-awful hopefuls who can't sing and make such fools of themselves? But the special treat of the night came at a commercial break.

Suddenly, on the screen was Isabella Bricker, Cindy's beloved god daughter, who recently went down to Orlando to shoot a commercial for the tourism board. WOW! It was her, smiling broadly as she whizzed around in a spinning teacup ride, and then merrily prancing in front of the Magic Castle of Disney World. Talk about taking the fast lane to the top....starring in a commercial, her first big gig, and then having the ad run on the most popular show on TV. Bravo!

I heard that when Isabella came to school the next day, she was mobbed by classmates who had seen the ad on Idol. It was bedlam in Pelham and everybody was excited for her.

I predict we will see this little girl's face in many more ads...and some day we will all say "remember way back when Isabella was doing commercials," when she lands her first movie role.
