Dr. Longmore
THE FABULOUS Dr. Saphire Longmore has now officially thrown her hat into the ring of television talk show hosts here in Jamaica with the official launching of her much talked about and greatly anticipated made-for CVM-TV programme, Colours.
The show which premiered last week on CVM, was launched at a cocktail reception at Guardsman Group Corporate headquarters on the property's something fabulous Garden Deck, with a host of media and fashionable personalities in attendance.
BLAZING A PATH
In 2000, Dr. Longmore became the first medical practitioner to wear the Miss Jamaica Universe crown. Since then, she has been blazing a path in the area of social activism and volunteerism. It was no surprise, therefore, when word got out that she was offered the opportunity to host a television show.
Colours is, indeed, the name of her new endeavour, now being aired on CVM television on Wednesday nights at 9:00. The programme is designed to first explore and then air the myriad social and cultural complexities that form part and parcel of the Jamaican psyche and sometimes cultural identity. In this respect, the programme will deal with some commonplace socio-economic and cultural issues.,
It was to launch her new endeavour as well as to provide her specially invited guests with a firsthand viewing of her pilot, that guests were invited to join her and a number of CVM bigwigs and media and society powerbrokers last Thursday.
Dears, if anything Colours is colourful. The very fine Dr. Longmore dons a dancehall get-up and goes to some of Kingston's hottest burlesque night spots and conducts a number of interviews with a number of the 'ladies' who make a living as go-go dancers.
