#HeySTAR Twitterview with Chef Jason Roberts 9/10

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of meeting Chef Jason Roberts at an event for Bella Housewares. We had the opportunity to chat while I sampled some amazing food he prepared using the new line of Bella products. Since I thoroughly enjoyed speaking to him, I immediately thought it would be a good idea to invite him for a #HeySTAR twitterview one Thursday night so all of you can enjoy some interaction with Jason as well.

Tonight is the night! At 9pm ET/6pm PT, Chef Jason Roberts will join us for an hour long twitter chat. You can join in simply by being on Twitter at 9pm/6pt, using the hashtag #HeySTAR, following @HeySTARLive, @JessicaNorthey, @ChefJasRoberts, and @teeco71. You can ask your own questions and have fun answering our community questions too. 

Jason is a huge supporter of #NoKidHungry, has written several cookbooks including Elements and Graze: Lots of Little Meals Fast and Good Food Fast, and has appeared on The Chew, The Rachael Ray Show, Good Morning America, and more. 

I hope you will join us to discuss good food, healthy lifestyle, and good causes. Also be sure to check out Bella Housewares new line, there are so many useful new additions to make your kitchen your favorite room in the house! 

Let me know what you want to ask Jason or leave a comment for any of us here: 

Join the #HeySTAR #VMAs Live Tweet Party

It's award show season and this Sunday we have the VMAs on MTV to watch and tweet about! Miley Cyrus will be our host for the evening, which should be interesting to say the least. Those of us at #HeySTAR thought we should take the opportunity to throw a little Live Tweeting party since we have been enjoying having all of you as part of our celebrity Twitterviews. This will be a great chance for us to chat and get to know each other a little better. 

We'll be using the hashtags #VMAs, of course, along with our normal #HeySTAR. There will be some fun community questions as usual, along with some fun VMAs reactions from all of you! The pre show starts at 8pm ET and that's when the tweet party will begin. Then we'll keep going through the show at 9pm ET as well. 

Be sure to follow @JessicaNorthey @HeySTARLive @teeco71

I thought it would be cool to put together a list of the nominees so we could all keep track as we go along or make predictions and then see how we do!
