Invite to Marine Corps Ball - 2014

[midnightblues]

Sorry, I do wish Haley lots of fun and a good time, but for me this is way too macho.

Yeah I agree the Marine will in my mind think of Haley has his date, but after it's all done he could very well think on the line as his catch.I know his buds will. Don't think im wrong.Just hope he gives her all the respect she deserves and doesn't act like a Dip Shit. I was in the military ones,young hormonal minds. Im no angle

This became something of a thing in 2011 when a Marine asked Mila Kunis to attend one. She was making the promotional rounds with Justin Timberlake and he was enthusiastic about it, possibly pressuring her into accepting: "You need to do it for your country."



A female marine, who wasn't really a Justin Timberlake fan, then asked him to attend one with her, and he agreed.



Another marine then asked Betty White out, but she declined. It generated this response though:

Lewis confirmed that he was planning to take Hamilton to his ball but declined to discuss any specifics.

"It was fun for a while, but it became bigger than I wanted it to be," he said. "I don't want to detract from the true meaning of the Marine Corps ball."

The Division of Public Affairs at the Pentagon looked at it differently, however. Marine officials invited Ashley Gearing, 20, a country music singer from Nashville, Tenn., after hearing that a radio station in Boise, Idaho, was trying to set her up with Moore if Kunis backed out of attending his ball in North Carolina.

Gearing said she first heard about the ball invitation phenomenon during an interview with the station. The DJ said it was unclear whether Kunis would honor the invitation, and Gearing responded by saying that if it was her, she wouldn't back out. Headquarters contacted her management company the same week, offering a ticket to Commandant Gen. Jim Amos' ball, as the guest of Lance Cpl. John Baxley, an administrative specialist who works in the DIVPA office.

...Baxley, 22, said he's looking forward to taking Gearing, and has been listening to her music recently.

"She's a talented young lady," he said. "I can share with her the history of the Marine Corps, the traditions and the overall scheme of what's happening that evening with the ceremony, and why it's significant. I'm pretty stoked, and you can quote me on that."
