Welcome to the #1 source for Maria Kanellis news, photos, videos & more. Maria is a former WWE Diva who is currently hard at work on some new music. Download her debut album Sevin Sins and music video on iTunes today!
Update: Maria commented on her release on her Twitter account:
Alright guys let’s talk. I did not ask for my release. I was released. I am still going to kick ass in other areas!! I am excited about the future! But I am sad about never getting the Championship. I am sad about not getting the chance to go to Wrestlemania again. Passion is my Motivation! Time to Sing! Time to work for Charity! Time to Dance! Time to be Alive again! Much love to my FANS, my FAMILY, the DIVAS, and my FRIENDS! There is a bright new future when one door closes another opens! Bring on the Doors! Spanks and Kisses
Happy Birthday Maria, I hope you have a great day! Last year ended with you becoming Diva of the Year and I hope that 2010 brings you even more success, starting with the release of Sevin Sins! But I’m not the only one who would like to wish you a Happy Birthday. For the past 2 weeks I’ve asked readers of Maria-Kanellis.org to send in their birthday wishes. I received over 95 emails from your biggest fans from all over the world. Please see what they had to say (and check out this great Happy Birthday Maria music video too):
Your biggest fans from Germany sent in awesome media for your birthday. Mag made the image I used in the Happy Birthday Post & Jay put together this great music video. They share a Twitter account @MariaManiacs. They also sent in a special birthday message which I added after the video. Please take a look when you get a chance.
Maria’s birthday is next week, Tuesday February 25th! I’ve already received a ton of birthday wishes, keep them coming! All birthday wishes I receive will be compiled into a post on February 25th. Please have all entries in by 10pm EST on February 24th. I cannot guarantee Maria will see any birthday wishes submitted after that time. Lets make this a day she never forgets! For those of you on Twitter, use the hashtag #HappyBdayMaria in your tweets. Lets try to get it trending on Maria’s birthday!
After the great response we got for Maria’s birthday last year, I wanted to do something similar this year. Maria will turn 28 on February 25th, thats in 2 weeks! The greatest gift we could give would be to purchase her 1st single Fantasy which will go on sale on iTunes February 23rd. I also thought it would be great for all of her fans & MiaTweets to write their own personal birthday wishes. We will collect them all and post them to the site and then pass the link on to Maria so she can read them!
I also want to try to get #HappyBdayMaria trending on Twitter on February 25th, so I need your help MiaTweets! I’ll give more details as we get closer to her actual birthday, but if we could all RT the post I put up with the hash tag #HappyBdayMaria (on February 25th) I think that’d be pretty cool! So are you all with me? Click here or continue reading to fill out the official Maria-Kanellis.org 2010 “Birthday Form”.
And as a bonus, I know we have GREAT graphic designers who read this website. If you’d like to submit a Maria Birthday Banner image that I can use for the post I put up on February 25th, that’d be great! I will use the best submission on the main post, but will include a few runner up entries too! Please share this post will all the Maria fans you know, lets make it a birthday Maria never forgets!
This week on Smackdown Maria was in a backstage segment. She was talking to Teddy Long when Vikki Guerrero came in and congratulated her on her Celebrity Apprentice appearance. Vikki asked Maria to pitch the new line of WWE action figures, and she did a great job. Download the 720p HD video and check out some HQ captures in our gallery.
