Tess Vigeland: Our little blue plastic friend is heading just down the street from his sty in our studios. He’s off to Chinatown of course! And those amazing savers we heard rehearsing the lion dance: Vive Le, Erika Mey, Lauren Lam, Annie Huang and Elaine Pun. Five piggies to help celebrate the Lunar New Year. We could all learn from these girls.
