Veracity Clothing Featured on A&E’s “Best of Both Worlds” Hong Kong
Los Angeles, Calif., January 17th, 2003 – In the premier episode of A&E’s new reality format travel show “Best of Both Worlds,” host Alex McLeod is featured wearing a Veracity Clothing shirt as she and co-host Phil Keoghan get a martial arts lesson from Master Leung Ting in Hong Kong.
“We are happy to see our clothing publicized in such a positive way,” said Aaron Eisenberger, founder of Veracity Clothing. “Since the mission of the company is so tied to education and learning, it was great to see the clothing featured in a segment where Alex was being taught by such a renowned teacher as Master Leung.”
Professor Leung Ting is the permanent president and the only Grandmaster of the International WingTsun Association. At the age of 20, he was accepted by Great Grandmaster Yip Man (who was also the teacher of Bruce Lee) as his "Closed Door Student” and has since devoted his lifetime energy to developing WingTsun Kung Fu.
At present, the International WingTsun Association he founded has been expanded into a worldwide martial arts organization with branches located in over 63 countries. The Association is regarded as the largest professional Kung Fu establishment amongst all the martial arts organizations in the world.
Alex McLeod has performed in situation comedies, national commercials as well as hosted a variety of reality programs, including FOX’s new reality series “Joe Millionaire” and TLC’s runaway cable hit “Trading Spaces,” for which McLeod received a Daytime Emmy Award nomination.
Off-camera, McLeod continues to volunteer in her community, championing women and children’s causes. She is a public speaker and member of UNICEF’s Arts and Entertainment Committee and has donated her time and services as mistress of ceremonies for Am erican Heart Association events in the Los Angeles area.
Best of Both Worlds is A&E’s new reality travel show. In each episode a coin toss determines who will travel in luxury…and who roughs it. So far, McLeod has hanglided 9500 feet over the beautiful Hawaiian Islands, convalesced with Buddhist monks at a monastery, and caught Jackie Chan at his most recent movie premiere in Hong Kong. It’s anyone’s guess what the future holds for this series which provides viewers with two unique perspectives of exotic locations around the world. The Hong Kong episode of “Best of Both Worlds” aired on January 17th on A&E.
