I was just thinking about ways that fans can meet eachother and/or Marina. I do have an idea. I´m a member of a Facebook Page (It used to be an offical fan site but, it got too pricey for the adimistrator to keep the site up) called Conga On Line. It´s a Facebook Page for the most hard core fans of Gloria Estefan. Every few years (since 1999) fans from all over the world would meet up in Miami, Florida for the weekend. The get together was called a Conga Bash. They would go tour the recording studio that the Estefan´s own (which is called Cresent Moon Studios), they would tour their buissness offices (which is called Estefan Enterprises Incorporation), have dinner one night at one of the restaurants that they own on South Beach, and (the next day) have lunch at another restaurant that they own. On the 2nd day they would have a live and silent auction to raise money for the Gloria Estefan Foundation which was created (I beleive) a few years after her bus accident in 1990. It´s basically for the fans of Gloria to meet eachother and become closer friends and talk about concerts she´s given, special events that she´s been in that the fans got to meet her in person, etc. It´s really a great time. An added bonus...... She makes an apperance. She´s not requiered to but she does. That´s how I was able to meet her at least 9 times. Why not do something like for for your fans Marina? It could happen in London where you now live. The fans can spend a few days going around London and seeing places that you´ve been to, or see you in a play, etc. Than meet at a restaurant where you can meet the fans. I think that´ll be a fun and extreamly nice thing that you can do for the fans (not just the fans that live in the UK, but, also the international fans.) Would you consider doing something like this for your fans?? You don´t have to make any appearane if you don´t want to. But, just to have a place where all your fans can meet eachother and talk about any experience that they´ve might have had meeting you. Or, talk about how the movies/shows/plays that you´ve been in have inspired them. What do you all think about this idea??? Would you all consider doing something similar to this??

The difference between Gloria and I is that, unlike me, she doesn’t appear at conventions. I think I have given my fans a lot of access over the years. I’m sorry you weren’t a part of it.
I think Marina said (either on here or when she was still on Twitter) that she doesn’t like social media. Good idea for fans, but I doubt you’ll convince Marina to go onto a site other than this. I might be wrong though and it never hurts to ask.
