Peace Ambassadors for Uzbekistan
NO H8
Deven & Joel were chosen by the Uzbekistan Peace
Museum's panel to contribute an important message about peace!
Our qualifications were: "...people worldwide who
have contributed significantly to the creation of the better world on this earth
of ours."
We were an obvious choice.
We are now Peace Ambassadors in the
Museum alongside:
Sir Edmund Hilary, Ravi Shankar,
Ted Kennedy,
Maya Angelou, Phil
Collins, Judith Light, Vidal Sassoon,
Betty Williams (Nobel Peace Laureate),
Joseph S. Blatter (President, FIFA),
Crystal Gayle, Klaus Schwab (President,
World Economic Forum)
John Le Carre, Danielle Steel, and Walter Cunningham (Astronaut,
Apollo 7).
We thought we
would post the message we sent
(since we're sure you won't be in Uzbekistan
any time soon):
You seem confused.
Yes this
is real. And yes, we are shocked too.
Los Angeles LGBT Centre
Burbank Temporary Aid Centre
A huge honor to perform here and for such an important cause.
We raised a lot of money for BTAC as well as performed with Fritz Coleman.

you are a fan of The Howard Stern Show or Mancow In The Morning?
Then
you heard both Deven and Joel as call-in "guests" including:
a dirty sex-ed teacher,
a stripper that sells her babies for food, a paranoid
living with leeches, a hostess of BPP
parties, a guy that baked his wife into a pie to eat her and
as a Scientology insider.

many others.

Dear friend Nelson Aspen (entertainment reporter) lovingly mentioned Deven and Joel in his book: "Hollywood Insider Exposed!"
Are you in the L.A. loop? The Thrillist creates it. Deven & Joel are right in the middle: Thrillist
Deven starred as a love-lorn soap star and Joel as cupid in Taylor Negron's "Valentine Love Letters" theatrical play.Together they have written for FX's "Friday Night Fix" and the pilots "Ex-Pat" and "Time Flies."
If you were wondering, it is Joel behind the camera shooting all the "Betty Bowers" videos, and, he is voice of "Jesus"...
because he is just that good.

Secrets
Deven and Joel try to drop personal nods into each projects simply to amuse the other.
In "Anonymity," Joel played Detective
Green.
In the same film,
there is a post-it note behind the desk with "Call Deven" and her private cell phone
number -
(don't look for it now, that scene was cut down and, thankfully, the
number was removed).
In one of
Deven's "SpyTV" episodes, she cries out "Joel, help!" on the
operating table.
In "Matrimonium," Deven is the hostess but is obviously
biased to Joel when she blurts out "here is the strikingly handsome Best Man,"
which
is the only time she has a human comment that makes sense in the whole film!
