Rare LMaxwell Posted January 22, 2014 #101 Share Posted January 22, 2014 The fact that they are bringing the celebrity DJ to the announcement doesn't have me enthused. We just want a pool band and some steel drums. Not 24/7. Not all the time or every venue. But on the pool deck during the day would be nice...

fuddrules Posted January 22, 2014 #102 Share Posted January 22, 2014 I didn't want to speculate but... since we're going down that road. I'm guessing that Carnival is going to announce that they are mandating that John be required to wear pants when he blogs. John will get up on stage and not understand the fuss but will agree never to again blog in just his underpants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanmarcosman Posted January 22, 2014 #103 Share Posted January 22, 2014 For what it's worth, Carnival just started following Jennifer Hudson on Instagram a few days ago. Coincidental? Jennifer is the spokesperson for Weight Watchers. That doesn't sound cruise related to me :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PresDuLac Posted January 22, 2014 #104 Share Posted January 22, 2014 I'll have to say that the most frustrating thing about CC is the amount of people who don't read the freaking threads before posting. The announcement is not going to be about ships! The announcement is definitely going to be about entertainment! D.J. Irie flew in with Micky Arinson for the press conference/announcement.

Rare Tapi Posted January 22, 2014 #108 Share Posted January 22, 2014 The corporate Lear hasn't touched down at Teterboro yet. Ugh, is that what they fly? A Lear? In corporate flying world, that's like a Pinto! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

backnine05 Posted January 22, 2014 #114 Share Posted January 22, 2014 This type of announcement would not take place for steel drums or something so small scale. There is going to be some type of entertainment partnership fleet wide. I remember John hinting at something a few weeks back, but I can't remember exactly.

krunch Posted January 22, 2014 #115 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Well, it sounds entertainment related... Maybe Dr. Seuss Vs. Funship Freddy mud wrestling? :p Krunch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlindemer Posted January 22, 2014 #121 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Jennifer is the spokesperson for Weight Watchers. That doesn't sound cruise related to me :eek: And again I say she is the Godmother of the Disney Dream. There is no way Disney would allow her to promote Carnival.

Rare LMaxwell Posted January 22, 2014 #122 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Yes to partnership. Seems to be the new way. But what.....who????? The BB King House of Blues tie in with sister-line Holland America has been getting rave reviews, perhaps a tie in with Rock and Roll Hall of Fame or some sort of name brand cover acts? I remain hopeful of what the actual announcement will be. Entertainment has become a very weak spot on CCL and they finally seem to recognize they are "making the pizza too cheap" and taking corrective measures.

The4Cruisers Posted January 22, 2014 #124 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Maybe they'll announce that George Lopez has finally come up with an original and funny joke that they'll be rolling out at the comedy clubs across the fleet. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysticks1 Posted January 22, 2014 #125 Share Posted January 22, 2014 And again I say she is the Godmother of the Disney Dream. There is no way Disney would allow her to promote Carnival. That would depend upon the contract they signed with her and if it specifically limited her involvement with another cruise line. If it did limit it then it could have been only for a set period of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
