For ten pairs of best friends, Saturday, November 18 was a night of movie stars, manicures and make-overs as they traveled to Hollywood for the Glade Light Show Ultimate Slumber Party, hosted by Vanessa Hudgens, star of Disney's mega-hit High School Musical.
As Grand Prize winners of the Glade® Light Show Ultimate Slumber Party contest, 10 sets of BFF's (Best Friends Forever) from across the country were flown to Hollywood, CA for a good old-fashioned slumber party where Vanessa dished, danced and sang with other teen girls in a vanilla-scented and color- lit room created by the hot new teen room accessory, the Glade® Light Show. Vanessa and her best friend shared their best slumber party stories, secrets of a rising teen star and celebrated the success of her new CD, titled V. The VIP guests also received a $1,000 shopping spree and participated in fun girl stuff, including manicures, karaoke and slumber party games.
"I had such a great time hosting the Glade® Light Show Ultimate Slumber Party and hanging with all of these awesome girls from across the country," says Vanessa Hudgens. "It was great to spend a night and just kick-back and do all of those girly things that often get put-off, like giving each other manicures, gossiping and singing karaoke. I couldn't think of a better way to spend a Saturday night than having an Ultimate Slumber Party!"
To win the VIP trip to hang out with celebrity gal-pal Vanessa, best friends were asked to submit essays on how, in today's high-tech society, they like to "unplug" for some old-fashioned face time-no IM'ing or text messaging allowed. Winners were chosen on their demonstration of creativity, self- expression and originality in their essay. Some of the girls who submitted winning essays like to get together to do activities from playing team sports, to volunteering their time at an animal rescue shelter, to teaching each other different languages.
"In today's hectic world, we believe that it's even more important for teens to slow down and have a little down time with their best friends," says Kelly Semrau, SC Johnson Vice President of Global Public Affairs and Communication. "The Glade® Scented Oil Light Show really helps teens set the mood for an environment where they can just spend time with their friends. As a family company, we were really excited to see best friends from across the country come together to participate in the ultimate in girl bonding-the slumber party!"
The contest was launched in conjunction with SC Johnson's new Glade® PlugIns® Scented Oil Light Show-a hot new room accessory that inspires FTF that's GFU. (Translation: face to face fun that's good for you!)
Available in three teen-friendly fragrances from the Fun & Flirty(TM) Collection, Berry Burst(TM), Vanilla & Cream(TM) and Watermelon Rush(TM), Glade® PlugIns® Scented Oil Light Show is a continuous action unit that dispenses scent while the light show washes changing colors of light over a wall, creating a personal ambiance that helps girls express their individuality and set the right mood for chillin' with their best friends.
