Desi Watch - Hannah Simone • 12.12.07
Hannah Simone, Host of MuchNews, and who most recently graced the cover of Anokhi, was picked by the DesiWearBlog users as who they’d most like to see in a DW T!
So we’ve sent her a shout out letting her know we want to see her in a Desi Wear T-shirt. You can help get Hannah in one of our Ts by emailing her from the link on her profile HERE.
If you don’t know who Hannah Simone is, your in for a treat.
From her Much Music Profile Page: “She is the host of “The NewMusic”. Hannah Simone brings a wealth of worldly experience, education and enthusiasm to her new role as a MuchMusic VJ. Equally passionate about both world issues and pop culture, Hannah’s ready to offer a well-informed and well-spoken perspective on everything from global human rights to the latest music trends.”
You can read more about Hannah on her Much Music Profile Page or on Wikipedia. You can also check out a behind the scenes video of Hannah in action on the Anokhi photo shoot here.
I also found a little advert that Hannah did for the “Flick Off” campaign HERE.
