My birthday idea was to have a Hollywood Party! This include sending out the invitations a week in advance. For my 11-year-old-daughter party, we had many events such as American next top model contest, My friend and I were the Judges we were tyra banks, Simon, Beyonce, or who ever we had to be! we went and bought a camera that have a flash on it and printed the pictures right away once we took them of the girls. We called them to the cener of the living floor one by one! We gave them fake names! We had the girls bring two outfits so, they did the catwalk and also other poses just like the real show! We asked them questions! such as why should you be the next top model? It was really fun! we got answers like because i'm pretty, and i always wanted to model! We also did a you got served contest which was dancing against one another! just like the real movie! We also purchased a karote machine and played american idol! Just like the show! Also the winners received certificates! for example, this award goes to Twanna Hickman for the best catwalk on the runway! Best make over, Best pose, We printed the awards up on the computer and posted a picture of Nomi Campbell and other people depending on what game we were playing on the awards! We made sure every kid receive a award, so no one will fill left out! We also did the best Beyone dance! and gave an award for that! We also did the best martha stewart dish baking cookies, brownies, cupcakes etc.. so, the idea of the party was trying to pretend like we were in hollywood! Since we couldn't go to hollywood we bought it to our home! creating all the decorations, runway, dance floor etc, make-up! you should try this the kids will have a blast
