We all have our guilty pleasures in life. Some of mine are watching "America's Next Top Model," reading too much science fiction, and listening to Duran Duran. I also - true confessions time here folks - like Abba. I don't know what is it about songs like "Waterloo" and "Dancing Queen" but when I hear them on the car radio, I turn them up.
Well if you're a woman over 40 who likes Abba, and you have a video camera, you may be interested in this contest.
Pond's has partnered with the big screen remake of Mamma Mia!, starring Meryl Streep that's coming to theaters this summer. (Abba and Meryl Streep? Sounds like CHICK FLICK EXTRAORDINARE to me!)
They're looking for a trio of 40-something (or older) women who best embody the sassiness, sexiness and confidence of Donna & the Dynamos from the movie. And they want you to create a video of you three performing one of the songs from Mamma Mia! Click here to go to Pond's website to get the details of their contest.
If you live near New York City, you can attend the live audition on April 28 at Spotlight Live, 1604 Broadway (at 49th Street), Monday, April 28, 11am - 4pm. To reserve a time slot, you'll need to call 866-99-DYNAMO (39626).
The winners of the contest will win a lavish trip to London to live the life of three Dynamos at the world premiere of Mamma Mia!
If you're a fan - and a ham - bribe two friends (heck, get them drunk) and enter. Just making the video sounds like a hoot. But winning, wow! Good luck!!
