MAGIC MIKE (Duke connection)

[DevilWearsPrada2.0]

I went to see Magic Mike on opening night (June 29). Of course, I liked it! After all, I do have a BFA in Dance Education, and love all kinds of Dance!!!! A dancer's costumes are generally almost nothing and next to bare anyway. The dancing was excellent, and eye candy also!!! The movie is making millions!!!

Duke Connection............

Duke Univ tie in to Magic Mike



The Kid's (Adam) sister (Brooke) in the Magic Mike movie, is played by Cody Horn. Cody is the daughter of Alan Horn (chairman of Walt Disney Studios), and Cindy Harrell Horn (former Supermodel from the 70s and 80s, and is from Durham, NC).

Cindy Harrell Horn is on the the Board of Visitors for the Duke Nicholas School of Environment. Cindy is from Durham. She was a model of the Wilhelmina Agency in the late 70s and 80s.

I remember meeting her, because she went to the Prom with John D, and went also with my next door neighbor, Cindy W and her date, Keith. (Alamance County, not Durham). I was years behind them in school, maybe elementary school. I think Cindy Harrell was a Miss Durham Junior Miss, or NC Junior Miss (Teen Princess usa). Her daughter Cody, is in the movie Magic Mike.


This video is from UCLA Public Health and gives good information about what Cindy is doing for the Environment.

Enjoy!


Also, my Birth Family (Tatum), and we all related to the Tatums of NC, SC, Alabama, Miss, and Georgia. I met my birth family almost 10 years ago. Channing is developing into a decent actor, but has a huge fanbase. And is producing movies, also. Good job cuz!!!

I remember Cindy Harrell from back in the day when I lived in Durham. She modeled in Teen magazine. She may have been one of the Breck girls, too. One time Potsie (Anson Williams) came to town and they were on the Cerebral Palsy telethon together. They started dating some.

Cindy's husband, Alan Horn, is the chairman of Walt Disney Studios. Formerly, he was the president and COO of Warner Brothers. No wonder their daughter was in the movie.

I think Alan and Cindy are the ones who got Robert Redford to Duke a few years ago for his honorary degree. In other words, I think they're the ones who hooked up the Nicholas School with Robert Redford.
