What is a VPA? Well it is a Virtual Personal Appearance. That’s right, you can see Becky solo or Steve & Becky together from the comfort of your own home. All you have to do is register (it is free) at Daytime Connection and then sign up to see either Becky or Steve & Becky together. It’s that simple. You do not have to have a webcam or mic unless you want to be seen & heard. There is a chatroom available during the VPA.

Rebecca Herbst at 12pm (pst) on 7/18 - $50

Steve Burton & Rebecca Herbst at 2pm (pst) on 7/18 - $75

Great news all. You can now purchase tickets for Becky’s Soiree through paypal. You can still purchase tickets at the door, however people who pay ahead get better seats and do not have to deal with exact change. Here are the specifics I received from her fanclub on how to purchase with paypal.

Send $80 per ticket to RHSoiree@me.com under the “Personal” tab. For CREDIT CARD purchases only, click the appropriate tab to assume charges for the PayPal transaction fee ($2.62 per ticket). Payments made using debit cards, funds from a checking account or existing PayPal funds will not include a transaction fee. Add ‘Becky’s Soiree’ in the subject line, and in the message box, be sure to include the first & last name of each ticket holder. Preferential seating will be granted for those who purchase in advance.

We’re so excited to get Becky’s fans together again this year and raise a ton of money for The Smile Train!

Congrats to Becky for winning a 2010 pre-nom for Oustanding Supporting Actress. BH totally deserves this pre-nom and here’s to hoping she wins a nomination
