DEIx15x8 Posted November 18, 2009 #3 Share Posted November 18, 2009 We've got an hour and 15 minutes till the first reveal. Does anyone know where to look? Will RCCL tweet it, post a press release, post a video, post a chairmans blog, or maybe even just send Cruise Critic the name every hour? Where should we be looking?

viva-vegas Posted November 18, 2009 Author #4 Share Posted November 18, 2009 They seem to be working the social media angle pretty close, so I would guess to follow @oasisandallure and RCI's Facebook account. For those not very social media saavy, here are the direct links - Twitter: http://twitter.com/oasisandallure Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/royalcaribbean Craig JAN 02 2010 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEIx15x8 Posted November 18, 2009 #5 Share Posted November 18, 2009 From Twitter: As promised our 7 Godmothers will be revealed today, one per hour. We're happy to reveal our 1st Godmother of Oasis is... Gloria Estefan! Wasn't she also Nordic Empress? That was our first RCCL cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schplinky Posted November 18, 2009 #8 Share Posted November 18, 2009 I think Gloria Estefan is a great choice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEIx15x8 Posted November 18, 2009 #9 Share Posted November 18, 2009 I think Gloria Estefan is a great choice Yeah, it's so good to see them getting back to what a god mother should be. I wish they would say the neighborhood though. I think we can assume that Gloria Estefan is Entertainment Place. But Shawn Johnson could be The Pool and Sports Zone or Vitality at Seas Spa and Fitness Zone. She may even be boardwalk though, because of the aquatheater's gymnastics element.

Schplinky Posted November 18, 2009 #10 Share Posted November 18, 2009 I thought maybe Rihanna would be a GM since she'll be onboard as entertainment for the naming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEIx15x8 Posted November 18, 2009 #11 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Do they have to be women? Here's my predictions: 1) Central Park: Al Gore (green) or Rudy Giuliani (NYC) 2) The Pool and Sports Zone: Shawn Johnson (she's somewhere) 3) Vitality at Sea Spa and Fitness Center: I can't think of any health people. 4) Boardwalk: Who are the two Vegas magician guys? 5) Royal Promenade: Donald Trunmp (It's going to be huge!!) 6) Youth Zone: Miley Cyrus (gotta be a teen star) 7) Entertainment Place: Gloria Estefan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schplinky Posted November 18, 2009 #12 Share Posted November 18, 2009 I think that there is only one Godfather, which is Senator Inowe (sp?) who got the laws changed so NCL could base a ship in hawaii. I could see Bob Greene (from Oprah) or one of the Biggest Loser trainers ing the Vitality area. I could also see a healthy chef like Giada De Laurentis. Do you mean Sigfriend and Roy? They don't work Vegas anymore but that's a thought. Extending the boardwalk metaphor a bit, a former Miss America would work, since that happens in Atlantic City.

jty1220 Posted November 18, 2009 #13 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Can someone please explain the relevance of these people to the oasis? And also what is the purpose of "Godmothers" of a ship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schplinky Posted November 18, 2009 #16 Share Posted November 18, 2009 She was Godmother to Empress of the Seas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schplinky Posted November 18, 2009 #18 Share Posted November 18, 2009 I like the idea of bringing her "back into the fold" since Empress is no longer on RCL's roster. I saw Gloria on Kathy Griffin's show the other day and was reminded of what a warm personality she is. Good choice, RCL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEIx15x8 Posted November 18, 2009 #22 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Funny...are you thinkning of Penn and Teller from Vegas???? As someone else figured out I was thinking of Sigfriend and Roy. Unfortunately I am now confused as to who could be what. Michele Kwan and Gloria Estefan both seem like they would be Entertainment Place. Michele Kwan could be the Vitality at Sea. I've been thinking about Shawn Johnson and I think she may be the Youth Zone. If you've been following her tweets she is a really good role model and is involved in a lot of kids things. Recently she did a contest for kids to win a trip to the Vancouver Olympics where they'll get to stay with her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEIx15x8 Posted November 18, 2009 #23 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Next godmother: 3rd Oasis Godmother to be revealed is Emmy Award winning actress Jane Seymour. 4 more Godmothers to go! Stay tuned every hour. So this one has to be the Entertainment Place, I had been hoping they would have a broadway person for it. So where would Gloria Estefan be now? Boardwalk maybe because of the Aquatheater? Anyone know of any special projects that she has been doing, any green initiatives? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
