| Eva has posted a new blog on her MySpace informing us of her up-and-coming album: Hello my dah-lings! thank you for reading my blog :) I just wanted to let you guys know that I'm NOT dead, I'm still very much alive and working extremely hard on this new upcoming album. I know you guys might not be hearing as much about me as a while ago, but that just means I am in the process of preparing a new and kick-ass album! :) I am super excited! I have been working non-stop with amazing producers and songwriters, finding a feel and flavour to my new musical style and it has been a fantastic experience. I have learned a lot and I'm feeling more and more prepared for the launch of this sophomore cd. I reeeaaally hope you guys like it... look forward to this summer! Heeheeeee :) Other than that I've been great, I get to go home in Gatineau once a month on average, which is very much needed. I'm such a homebody, I miss my mom and dad and brother and all my family and friends... It's always magical to spend a few days at home. Even the little things like eating at my favourite restaurants makes me feel fulfilled. I am healthy, happy and ready to rumble!! lol :) Thank you from the very bottom of my heart for sticking with me and for all the messages, and for all the looove!!! Know that I am reading all of your messages, pinky swear! Much much love Eva le dragon xoxoxox

Idol winner gets healthy back-to-school lesson By: Chris Clay April 29, 2008 01:49 PM - Canadian Idol winner Eva Avila went back to school today. Avila, who won the fourth season of the reality television singing contest, was at Huntington Ridge Public School to help reinforce the positive messages students have been learning through the At My Best program. The pilot project, which is ongoing at 50 Peel schools, provides teachers with activities and lesson plans to help students improve their physical and emotional well-being. At Huntington Ridge, located near City Centre, students from kindergarten to Grade 3 were part of an assembly in which the youngsters taught Avila songs and dances they learned through the program. The pop star good-naturedly performed the words and movements to several songs, including 10 Shining Stars, The ABC Song as well as If You're Healthy and You Know It. "Doesn't it feel good to exercise in the morning?" Avila asked the students. "Doesn't it feel good to eat fruits and vegetables instead of candy?" The students were especially excited when Avila broke out into an impromptu song. Grade 1 student Amna Amir said her class practiced for two months in anticipation of Avila's visit. She said students enjoyed learning the songs and liked all the extra exercise they were getting. "We would practice in the classroom and we would listen to CDs and have lots of fun," said Amna. "I liked 10 Shining Stars because you get to march (in place) and the words tell you what to do, sort of like Simon says." At My Best is being administered through the Canadian Association for Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance (CAHPERD), with funding and additional support from Mississauga-based AstraZeneca Canada. The program was designed by educators to prepare children for a healthy future by promoting physical activity, proper eating and emotional well-being. Participating schools receive kits for each grade that come with a series of activities, storybooks, lesson plans and a CD. The cost, about $1,000 per kit, is covered by AstraZeneca. "When we were communicating with the school boards, they said (kindergarten to Grade 3) are the grades where you can influence behaviour," said John Jenner, AstraZeneca's executive director of customer insights. "If this program is successful, and we know it will be, we'll look at other grades." The program also includes take-home exercises for students and their families. "You can teach (healthy habits) in a school environment, but if at home they (revert) to similar habits, there isn't going to be a change," said Jenner. "We hope to educate the parents as well."

![]() Justin Trudeau and Eva Avila unveil the Swarovski Crystal Wish Tree at the Toronto Eaton Centre benefitting the Children's Wish Foundation of Canada TORONTO, Nov. 23 /CNW/ - Last night at Toronto Eaton Centre, Host Justin Trudeau and 2006 Canadian Idol winner Eva Avila unveiled the Swarovski Crystal Wish Tree; with the assistance of Spencer Bales and Anastasia Kemp, two children who have been granted wishes through the Children's Wish Foundation of Canada. In addition, Swarovski stars decorated by 12 Canadian celebrities were unveiled which will be auctioned off on www.starsforwishes.com commencing December 7, 2007. http://www.newswire.ca/en/releases/archive/November2007/23/c3664.html Canadian Idol winner Eva Avila joined Justin to co-host the show and help him unveil some celebrity-designed knick-knacks being auctioned off for charity. In an inspired bit of irony, Ms. Avila was the only presenter who did not sing at the ceremony, although her unflagging cheerfulness did manage to engage even the most reticent spectators. ![]() http://torontoist.com/2007/11/eaton_centre_ma.php

| Tue, November 20, 2007 By BEVERLEY LUNNEY, FOR SUN MEDIA When I learned I was going to Walt Disney World for the third time, I was beyond excited. I never dreamed the trip would include a brief concert by Eva Avila -- Canadian Idol winner 2006 --and a chance for me to meet her and chat with her afterward But that's exactly what happened when I attended the October grand re-opening of the Canada Pavilion in Disney's Epcot theme park. In Epcot one of the main attractions is the World Showcase, which is Disney's version of Folklorama, except about a million times bigger. During the grand re-opening ceremonies Eva Avila performed her song My Canada, which was featured in the new Canada video. Part way through the song she was joined on stage by Minnie and Mickey Mouse. She later told me she was so surprised when they joined her, that she almost stopped singing! It just goes to show the power of Disney, when someone who has been through every round of Canadian Idol can get flustered by the presence of Mickey Mouse. Later that night, while attending an invitation-only dinner party in Epcot, I spotted Eva among the other guests, chatting and proudly sporting a new Mickey Mouse T-shirt. Angela Saclamacis, a.k.a. amazingly nice Canadian Disney rep, asked if I would like to meet Eva. Trying to look calm, but failing miserably, I said I would love to. And so, that is how I came to find myself chatting with Eva, showing her the pictures I had taken that day and having my picture taken with her. Eva didn't have a lot of time, but she gave it happily to meet me. There were no cameras rolling, and no audience. There was no reason for her to be nice to me other than that she is a truly sweet individual. While meeting Eva Avila is an amazing memory, an even better memory is what a wonderful person she turned out to be.
