San Diego's Got Talent
AAJA Presents: San Diego's Got Talent* - Thursday, March 25th
The Asian American Journalist Association of San Diego presents a fun and exciting event open to everyone who has a talent they want to share with San Diego! This will be the place to get your skills and talents in the public eye and be rewarded for dazzling the audience and our guest judges! Come out to downtown San Diego to the Onyx Room and have a night to remember with the AAJA!
To entice you, we have:
…a political reporter who plays in a reggae band and is a big fan of Lady Gaga
…a biz reporter who can hula like there’s no tomorrow
…and an editor who can score 100 free throw shots in a row
Curious as to who they are? You’ll have to come to find out who should leave their day job to show off their talent, who should stick to their reporting gig and never perform again, and who should just be thankful they're hot.
The event will be hosted by Robert Santos, from ABC Channel 10.
Our special guest judges include:
Jenny Hamel, from San Diego Channel 6 The CW
Neil Senturia, CEO of San Diego News Network, and
Ken Kramer, from KPBS
