Sergio Diaz encountered more than Michael Welch as he was introduced to the Miami Twi-hards.

Walking into the Gusman center for the first time, the first thing I notice is the amazing architecture and the way the entire place is dramatically set up – just awesome. Complete with a really neat green-screen photo booth where fans are able to take photos immersing them into the Twilight universe.  The locale is abuzz with excitement and everyone scuttles left and right erratically, like roaches, snatching things from either the merchandise table or the concession stand.  I see one fan that is literally jumping with excitement as her boy dons Vampire eyes *cue Twilight screams*.  {Click here for images from the event} I rip her politely from the merchandise line and she is more than happy to give me an interview.

Fan Interview with Arrienne – here

Spinlight City’s music blazes through the entire house.  It’s my first time hearing them but I must admit they are pretty damn good. You can find them on the Eclipse soundtrack, of course. I walk down into the massive auditorium/theatre area and it is vast – two floors and every wall covered in highly detailed statues with what looks like an aqua light shining on them revealing the elaborate gold/gold-plated trim. Where the hell am I again? “ahhhhhhh!” The screams bust my ears as a Y100 (the local radio station) DJ walks on stage and immediately introduces Michael Welch.

Jacques D’Azur, May 13, 1939 – 2010, Is the mysterious king of Cannes gone forever?  Stella Artois 4% is searching for an heir to the throne of class.

Can anyone fill in for him at the 2010 Cannes Film Festival? The search begins!  Could it be you?

If you win, here is how your life will change forever:  you and a guest could win attendance to the Festival de Cannes in France.  This once in a lifetime trip consists of round-trip first-class air transport for two, five star double-occupancy hotel accommodations for two nights, transportation to/from winners home to the airport and to/from airport to the hotel, a personally tailored suit or dress for the winner, two entertainment activities for winner and guest, one prize bag with Stella Artois 4% merchandise, two tickets to an opening or closing gala at the Palm D’or Awards, exclusive VIP film festival screenings and all inclusive meals and beverages.  For more details on how to enter and win, click the image above.

Who is the D’Azur d’jour?

Jacques D’Azur revolutionized the way people view sex, art, sports and life in general.  He has always lived life to the fullest, grabbing from every branch of the golden palm.  He revolutionized the swinging sixties lifestyle, hell, he and Hugh Hefner all but started the sexual revolution.  That’s a revolution I’d gladly spill some tea for – life is short, n’est pas?

Jacques made James Bond look meek in contrast!  Men idolize him, and women are still throwing themselves at his feet.  Who wouldn’t want to be a part of his life?  Class and style, lavish parties and extravagant vacations emboss his memories like a gilded frame.

So, who can really stand up to the label of D’Azur, d’jour?  Who do we have in our day to teach us how to be suave and debonair?  Jacques brought all the panache to Cannes, who do you think can fill his shoes?  Let me hear your best answers via Twitter, FB, or comments below.

Swift thought:  At first I thought, oh, wonderful a whimsical romantic comedy, gag, puke, hurl, but then I watched the trailer – looks pretty funny, I mean Forest Whitaker vs. Carlos Mencia – maybe he will go all Last King of Scotland on everyone?  Hey, a Rick Swift can dream, can’t he?  Still, it looks pretty funny.  And, if you are in the Miami area, you get to see it for free, so send in your answers and enjoy Our Family Wedding.
