The day before the voting ended, we stopped showing the voting tallies because we wanted there to be an element of surprise when we announced the winners.

I debated listing the final results because, well… some people (me included!) received very few votes and it just reminded me of middle school and being the last to be picked for dodge ball in Phys. Ed. and middle school is humiliating enough, you know?* Then I had to, like, go watch a few episodes of My So Called Life and listen to some Nirvana and I am happy to report that all is right with the world again.

(*Well, that and I honestly didn’t think people would care all that much, but what do I know?)

So with that, I give you…

We’ve promised not to tell who… but we’ve had lots of bloggers nominating themselves. And that’s cool because if you don’t love yourself, who’s gonna love ya baby?

And of course there are nominations coming in from all of y’all’s rabid fans. Wow, people LOVE their favorite bloggers. (It’s a little scary.)

But the best part is that you all seem to be as excited about this whole thing as we are. Between all of the blog posts about the calendar (so many that I have to continue this sentence just to fit them all in – phew!), the Hot Blogger Calendar buttons popping up, the tweets about the contest, etc., we have all collectively created some incredible buzz. Go us (and thank you!).

A few people have asked if there is really going to be a calendar. The answer is YES! With a real shoot party – photographers, make-up artists, stylists, DJ and everything. (Don’t worry, if you absolutely can’t make the shoot in New York City, we’ll have a plan for you to get your hot photo to us).

A lot of people have asked how they can help. We’ll definitely need volunteers for the shoot party, as well as donations for goody bags.

We’d also LOVE sponsors for flights, hotels, food, drinks, car service, clothes, etc.

If you’d like to be a sponsor or advertise here (and why wouldn’t you?), email Jane or Sarah. We’ll let you know what’s up.

Remember, we’re taking nominations up until August 25th, at which time we’ll narrow down the field based on the number of nominations for each blogger. And then the voting begins!
