For men who find Louisiana Creole women unattractive?

Why? No one ever gives a direct answer, they simply say "they are not my type" or "I’m just not interested in them."

Is it their physical appearance? Culture and customs? Maybe embarrassment you’ll bring to your family? And for men that don’t find Louisiana Creole women attractive, is it because of all the old stereotypes you are *afraid* a Louisiana Creole woman might have?

I’m not getting it.

It’s the hoodoo.

I’m looking for a famous actor, that was born in Louisiana, but is part french. Know any?

I’m doing a french project for school. And I need to talk about different literature, or music in loisiana that was inspired by french people, or france. Yeah, I’m confused too. Loisiana is partly french anyways. I think. My point is, I need a famous actor that’s part french, who was born in loisiana. It’d be awsome if you could help! Thanks!

How can I get noticed by record labels?

I want to be a country music singer, but I live in Louisiana. It is hard to get noticed hear.

A good voice is never enough. You need to have contacts with the right people and just to let you know it is very difficult to live from music. Much harder even to become famous because the music industry is a very clan closed society.

“Shadows” from Potter’s Field was used in a trailer for the film Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest. “Photograph” (also from Potter’s Field) appeared on the Elektra movie soundtrack 2005. “My Life” from their self-titled album was featured on the soundtrack of The Scorpion King in 2002. “Broken” (also from the self-titled album) served as the official theme song for WWE’s Judgment Day pay-per-view in May 2002 and “Home” (also from the self-titled album) was the song used for the WWE Desire video for Kurt Angle. The band also recorded the song “Let Go” exclusively for the Daredevil movie soundtrack. Songs “Running out of Pain” and “Back Up” were used on Cheating Death, Stealing Life – The Eddie Guerrero Story.

In November 2009, the band recorded their fourth studio album, with producer David Bendeth. “We Are One”, the first single from the new album, was released on April 6. The song Premiered on noisecreep on 29 March 2010, the very same day being leaked to radio by WBSX (97.9X) in Wilkes-Barre, PA. Recently, “We Are One” was used by World Wrestling Entertainment as the theme song for the renegade faction formed by the NXT first season graduates known as The Nexus.

Anthem for the Underdog Album
Anthem for the Underdog is third album by rock band 12 Stones. It was released on August 14, 2007. The first single is “Lie to Me”, which is available to listen on 12 Stones’ MySpace and official website along with the second single “Anthem For The Underdog”, which was featured in the movie Never Back Down. Both singles have charted in the top 30 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, while “It Was You” charted in the top 10 on Christian Rock charts. The current single is the song “Adrenaline” which was the theme song for the Met-Rx World’s Strongest Man competition in 2007.

The song “World So Cold” was used in a tribute video found on YouTube for the victims of the Virginia Tech massacre shooting. In a bulletin posted on the band’s MySpace page, the band said that they were surprised the song surfaced because it had not been released.

The track “Broken Road” was co-written with former American Idol contestant and Daughtry frontman Chris Daughtry.

The album debuted on the Billboard 200 at Number 53.
