Jenna Zine: What are your future career goals and plans? I think the career you're having is so amazing! You've been on E!, my favorite channel. [Editor's note: She's also been featured on NBC, Access Hollywood and CNN Live with Larry King, to name a few!] You're doing the celebrity interviews already. Where do you want to go from here?
Alicia Jacobs: I'm a huge fan of Nancy O'Dell and Mary Hart. I think what those ladies have done is amazing. I would love to follow in their footsteps and do something along the line of what they're doing. In the meantime, as we speak, I'm working with my agent right now about being a Las Vegas correspondent for one of those shows. I love it here. I know this city. I would love to show the rest of the country the Las Vegas that I know and love. Not necessarily the Vegas that we see via other reporters that aren't from here [Alicia is a Las Vegas native]. I think I have a nice perspective on it that's very accurate. I think it's something people would be very interested to know about.
JZ: Vegas is always going to be a destination, no matter what's going on with the economy.
AJ: It's crazy! [laughter]
JZ: People will always want to get away. Now, you've been behind the scenes. You've performed in the shows. [Alicia's "behind the scenes" segments have seen her actually performing on-stage in several Las Vegas productions. She suited-up as a "Siren," and danced in the "Siren's of T.I." show, performed on-stage as one of Ivan Kane's "40 Deuce Girls," became a trapeze artist in the "Moscow Circus," vanished from David Copperfield's show and performed the lead role in the musical "Mama Mia," to name a few!]
AJ: It's fun!
JZ: Oh my gosh, I can't imagine!
AJ: It's stressful and nerve-wracking, but it's fun. Some of
those costumes... wow! It's definitely a perk.
JZ: We've covered some really big stories and you're in on all of them. It's so cool!
AJ: Thank you! Professionally it's been the best six months
of my life.
JZ: Well, you certainly deserve it. I can't wait for more.
[Alicia is definitely one to watch! Stay tuned throughout the week as we discuss Carrie Prejean, Holly Madison, Criss Angel, Donny & Marie and more.]
