Veterans Day Convention

PoptropicaStars attended a Veterans Day convention at 11:30 A.M. in Rancho Cucamonga, California today at the Poptropican Civic Center. Like her, many Poptropican celebrity residents who live in Los Angeles County were invited to this special VIP event. Military families and government figures who signed up for the event also were allowed into the convention with proof of waiver signatures. The turn-out for this convention went great as more than 100 guests came to the event.

At noon, Poptropicans attached the American flag to the indoor pole as each guest paid respects to the troopers. At 1:00 P.M., the guests were given a light European-style lunch including ratatouille, bruschetta, or lobster bisque with choice of drinks. At 2:25 P.M., guests were given the chance to meet a government figure. PoptropicaStars decided to chat with the official linguist of the Poptropican President, Britney Wright to learn more about her job as helping the Pop. President interpret messages. Other government figures attending the convention include Poptropican Branch of Congress member, Roger Kingston, and the Pop. President's assistant bill verifier, Edward Collingdale. At 3:00 P.M., guests were able to listen to Wright's speech about Veterans Day and the military families who sacrificed a lot to help countries in need. Nearing the end of the convention at 4:00 P.M., everyone had their final chats before leaving for the night.

A "Corny" Date

This sunny afternoon, PoptropicaStars and Nathan Devilman took a decent road trip from Los Angeles to Irvine, California to visit a popular agricultural site near Orange County named Tanaka Farms. At Tanaka Farms, PoptropicaStars and Nathan were delighted to enjoy the wonderful essence of the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday. They walked through a corn maze (getting lost several times on their way to the finishing point), sat back and relaxed on a horse-drawn cart, danced to upbeat country music at the concert area, had a  nice picnic enjoying nature, and purchased a couple of souvenirs and farm-grown produce to take back home. At the end of the visit, PoptropicaStars and Nathan Devilman give each other a sweet kiss before driving back to their hometown. They make such a cute couple.

The Haunted House

PoptropicaStars was driven by limousine to Rancho Santa Rosa Historic Area near Temecula, California for another "Autumn Flavor" photoshoot depicting the second picture plot of the fall season. Scenes and settings were pre-built in the historic area and the building team waited until nighttime for the photoshooting to begin. In the "story", after the long hike through the mystical meadows, PoptropicaStars finds it nightfall and sees a creepy haunted house. While she thinks about if she should enter the house to find warmth or stay away from evil spirits among the mysterious graves, she decides it was better to be warmer than staying in the cold all night long.

Her main focus of apparel this photoshoot is about "twilight night" colors. She is wearing a dark blue mini-dress with wrap-around sewing techniques and dark brown mid-calf high heel boots. The mini-dress is simple, yet vaguely bringing out the background and foreground. However, the boots do create a more suspenseful and mysterious vibe to the picture.

COSMETIC USES:
1. Sandy Tan Eyeshadow

2. Black Mascara

ACCESSORY USES:
1. Skull Necklace

2. Black Mini-Handbag

PoptropicaStars Fashion Fever S2 Interviews: Kendra's Elimination

Kendra Whitler, the 19-year old runway model from San Diego, California was eliminated by an intense, 3-2 voting conclusion. The main reason of her departure was because of her dangerous social confusion and false accusations towards some other designers in-game and out. Although she placed fifth out of eighth this season, she remains one of the most strategic players to participate in PoptropicaStars Fashion Fever. After packing and leaving in a comfortable state of mind, she was relocated to the elimination villa in Malibu, California at 9:12 A.M. where Jennifer, Danielle, and Tiffany were shocked in disbelief and disgust. Kendra genuinely hugged all the villa residents which Danielle found awkward. Kendra asked everyone if they wanted to see her demise on video. The other designers agreed and all sat down at the luxury beige sofa sipping morning cappuccinos with low-fat milk and eating chocolate chip cookies. After the viewing party, Danielle confronted Kendra about lying to her during her "burn book night" and framing Iris with the tale. Kendra explained if she was able to get Iris on the block against herself, she would sway ahead of the Gucci Girls and eliminate Heidi. Danielle found that answer vague and felt more disgusted about her. Later that night, the residents received a special trip to an exotic surf & turf restaurant at the Santa Monica Pier where they enjoyed barbecued shrimp, onion rings, mashed potatoes, sparkling wine, and a tribal fire baton show.


After getting back to the villa, Kendra received a surprise phone call from her fiancee, Eric Rouzvelte. Eric tells Kendra to enjoy the best moments in sequester and don't let the game haunt her head. He explains to her they will have a fabulous wedding no matter what happens.


Before Kendra arrived at the elimination villa, she had to prepare for her interview with Nick Burley, the host of Good Morning Poptropica. The interview started at 7:25 and Nick asked these questions during the interview.

NICK: Good morning Kendra, we know it's been quite an adventure, so how are you doing?
KENDRA: I'm doing fine, Nick. It's been a rollercoaster ride.

NICK: Okay, I'm going to ask you a series of Fashion Fever and personal related questions and you have to answer them as honestly as you can. Ready?
KENDRA: I'm ready. Let's go!
NICK: First question, what were your thoughts when PoptropicaStars revealed the final tallies of the votes?
KENDRA: I was pretty shocked, but not because I was eliminated. I knew I would've been eliminated even if I talked to Nariah and Iris, but hey, why not try a trick shot at least. It was startling when either Nariah or Iris wanted to keep me and kick Heidi out. I was amazed how one lecture can take you places.

NICK: When you made your Bollywood outfit, what was in your mind of winning that fashion assignment?
KENDRA: You know what, I was attempting to put a little twist in the Bollywood theme by making my design look more gothic European than spiritual colors so the judges will think of the creative aspect I put into my outfit. I took that risk, but apparently the risk did not pay off as well as I hoped it would.
NICK: Here's a tougher question, why did you constantly lie to some designers to control what happens in the game?
KENDRA:
 No thinking necessary. I needed to lie to Danielle first so I could show Tiffany everyone trusted in her to get rid of the leftovers and to let Iris know she was "crazy". Next, I was targeting Tiffany because I needed her gone to win fashion immunities. I remembered the alliance I agreed to join and it was about time to quit from... in my say, "the pseudo-alliance"... and backstab Tiffany to leapfrog ahead of her. Next I was onto Heidi so I would have a greater chance at winning immunity, but apparently, Nariah and Iris have their own game to be played and I got the boot instead.
NICK: Wow, sweet answer! Next question, who do you think voted for your stay in the game during your final night in the designing lair?
KENDRA: Mm... it might have been Iris because she did talk to me about keeping me, but that was a pretty stupid idea to address. Umm... Nariah might have been swayed to my side, but I don't see that happening. I don't know, was it... Iris?
NICK: You'll have to find out for yourself, Kendra. How would you have reacted if the mime from the Bollywood assignment had ruined your outfit?
KENDRA: Oh.. my.. gosh! I do not want to see that mime ever again in my life especially at my wedding with Eric.. Love you Eric, if you're watching! I would have been cursing, screaming, maybe even throw in a few fingernail scratches at that mime if he destroyed my designs. I hope he's not in the room right now...

NICK: Hahaha, I would compliment you on your body formation right now. You're really fit and healthy. What was your favorite meal in the show?
KENDRA: Thank you and the food was just epic and delicious! One of my favorite meals was after Jen's elimination and the chef's do-it-yourself table had quinoa salad with asparagus and grated mozzarella cheese. It was rich with flavor and thickness. I need to get that recipe, it's super delicious!
NICK: We're running out of time so who is your favorite designer in the game right now and do you have any regrets?
KENDRA: Okay. My favorite designer in the game is Heidi because she is a good competitor, she designs strong outfits, and she delivers her designs with class. And no, I do not own any regrets. What happened should have happened and I'm not taking any more bullets in my head.

NICK: It was very nice to interview and meet you, Kendra. I hope you have a great day.
KENDRA: Thank you so much, Nick. You too! It was such a pleasure to meet you.
