Katie Holmes at The Sundance Film Festival!

IMTA alum Katie Holmes will be premiering her newest movie The Son Of No One tonight at the Sundance Film Festival. According to Film Industry Network: "The Sundance Film Festival is a place that celebrates independent filmmaking, which was originally set up by Robert Redford. The actor has created one of the most iconic institutions for film in the US since its inception, and now it carries international weight like never before. Katie Holmes' ‘The Son Of No One’ will get its premiere at the festival and Spike Lee produced ‘Pariah’ amongst a whole host of other movies."


Katie competed at IMTA twice, in 1993 and 1995. She returned to present awards at IMTA and debuted the first 15 minutes of the pilot episode of Dawson's Creek. The entire ballroom was riveted by this ground-breaking stylish teen drama and Katie received thunderous applause! On that special night, she gave us a very nice interview saying:
"Let's just say a girl from Toledo, Ohio wouldn't end up in a Hollywood movie if it weren't for the IMTA!"

The Silent Indian National Anthem

Jill Wagner on Winter Wipeout Tonight!

IMTA alum Jill Wagner is back for a fourth season of Winter Wipeout airing tonight! This year's theme has been changed to winter. According to USAtoday : "We've themed everything to have a winter feel," executive producer Matt Kunitz says as he leads a visitor on a tour of the biggest Wipeout setup to date. The newest version, dubbed Winter Wipeout, also features a huge Wipeout Zone for the competitors who qualify for the final round....During the night's competition, participants on a rocket sled become human projectiles, shooting high into the air before plunging into the chilly water. Whoosh! Splash! Brrr! The sensation discombobulates one competitor so much she almost quits before going on to compete the convoluted course. 'Guys, this is pretty hard to watch,' says co-host Jill Wagner, who interviews the competitors, wrapped in winter wear. "

Jill competed at IMTA in Los Angeles in 2001 where she won Female Model of the Year! Many people know Jill best as the Lincoln Mercury Spokesperson as she has done many ad campaigns for the auto giant!


Be sure to tune in tonight to see Jill on Winter Wipeout!
