I’ve heard a lot of bad business plans and ideas, but this one might take the prize.

How about starting a company where people pay you to kidnap them so they know what the real thing feels like?  Yes, you heard right.

That’s what French company Ultime Réalité offers clients. Pick and choose your kidnapping: 4-10 hours, where you’re kidnapped, the ransom, or add a helicopter chase.

If you choose the “Extreme” package, you can wake up in a morgue surrounded by corpses and body bags.

Basic kidnapping packages start at 900 Euros.

I’m curious: Who is paying for this?

Thoughts on this new business?

Last week I offered to babysit and today was the day.

I don’t know what in the world possessed me. Just this past Thursday I met one month old Munchk’n for the first time and he was sleeping soundly. He opened his eyes once or twice and looked around the room and then went back to sleep. That was pretty much it. That and the fact that he’s so gosh darn cute!

So I offered to babysit. I don’t mind having Munchk’n keep me company in my home office while I work on a few projects, blog, send some emails. Easy enough because he sleeps.

Wrong.

Munchk’n, according to Mommy, didn’t sleep very well last night and arrived at my home this AM, a tad bit cranky.

He only wanted me to hold him, so that’s what I did. The entire morning. And no, he didn’t sleep. I also discovered one-handed typing isn’t for me.

Clearly, cranky babes and biz don’t mix.

Just so you know.

But he’s still gosh darn cute! #cheekpinch

Have you tried the babes & biz c**ktail? Share some stories!

This past November, I said goodbye to my dear readers and wished everyone the best of luck here at Twolia. But today I’m here and very proud to announce that Diva Mogul is BACK!

Yes, I’ll be here at Twolia, once again, blogging 3 times a week. For now, expect to hear from me every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday about business & entrepreneurship.

Over the next few months, you’ll notice the blogs here at Twolia shifting more towards a female musician and artist focus. Diva Mogul fits into the new mix because it’s about business and enterprising women.

Is there anything pertaining to business or entrepreneurship that you would like to know? Any special topics you’d like me to cover here at Diva Mogul? Leave a comment or send an email…

It’s great to be back! See you Wednesday…

Right now I’m giving thanks to all of you.

Thanks for giving me this great space to allow my creative juices to flow, voice what’s on my insanely active mind, and tell you what’s up in the business world.

Blogging with Twolia has been one heck of a ride.

I’ve had a great time being a part of Twolia during the continual growth. I’ve been here as new bloggers were brought onboard to unleash their sweet fury, share their fashion fetishes, and delve into TMI regarding not-so-savory relationships and savvy celebrity gossip among other topics.  Now there’s also a store, videos, music, and astrology reports.

Growth sweet growth.

But, as nothing is permanent in life, with growth comes inevitable change. My life is busy these days and so is business. Because of this, I have found myself taking a look at la dolce vita and thinking about my own growth and changes.

Some things in my life will stay very much the way they are while other things, naturally, will have to go.

Among some of these changes, I have decided, is to bid farewell to my Diva Mogul blogging days here at Twolia.

I’ve had fun being a part of the blogging team and virtually meeting so many magnificent fellow Diva Moguls.

Know that this isn’t the end of me! I’ll be lurking around Twolia from time to time, reading and commenting or listening to the latest tunes from groovy chicks like you.

Take all this as further proof that…You can take the girl out of Twolia, but you can’t take the Twolia out of the girl!

You can also keep in touch with me at EntrepreneurGoddess.com. My contact information is on that site, so take note. And, as usual, you can follow me on Twitter @egoddess. ;-)

[Cue the Sound of Music] So long, farewell, auf wiedersehen good-bye…

Wishing you success in business and in life,

Katie :-)

Lisa Rinna should keep it real, it would do her body and business well. Yesterday morning she tweeted this photo of herself ‘au natural,’ before her not-so-glam squad arrived. Who knew she looks so pretty under all that fit-for-a-drag-queen makeup?

I swear she’d find more work in Hollywood if she stopped doing whatever it is she does to her body.

Or this?

Lisa Rinna, if you’re listening, stop the injections and surgeries! You don’t need it!

Rinna uses Twitter to keep in touch with her fans as well as to show off her store, Belle Gray’s, latest merchandise. Follow her and follow me!

It wouldn’t be a Kardashian wedding without cameras and a five to six figure exclusivity agreement with a network and/or tabloid magazine.

I’m sure any disappointments Chris & Bruce had about their daughter Khloe marrying this L.A.-Laker-Lamar-Odom-basketball-player-guy after only knowing each other for a month were swept away by whatever E! generou$ly offered to televise the wedding.

In Hollywood, money is a band-aid for everything. Just ask Lindsay Lohan’s mom.

I must say, it is kind of hard Keeping Up With the Kardashians Fame & Money Concubines.

How long shall we give their marriage? Post your vote in the comment section below.

The VMAs, every TV show, every tabloid, every radio show, Hennessey Cognac, and every friggin blogger in the world thanks Kanye West for Taylorgate.

I’ll let myself finish after Kanye gets his moment here on Diva Mogul:

When Taylor Swift won her first VMA, Kanye (boozed up on Hennessey) stole her moment by jumping on stage and stealing the mic:

“Yo Taylor, I’m really happy for you, I’ll let you finish, but Beyoncé has one of the best videos of all time. One of the best videos of all time!”

Beep. Time up. Sorry.

Mucho thanks for the water cooler chat, Kayne. Hennessey thanks you for making them a household name while Jay Leno thanks you for bringing in the viewers on his new show.

You clearly drunkenly know how to get attention and help people make money.

And, for the record, I don’t think Beyonce + a few other chicks doing the funky chicken dance in black and white equals the best music video of the decade. :-)
