"Hey everyone its me again, and i feel i am always thanking you ... but Thank You, "one more time." Well since i last talked to you, i departed from Britney's summer tour, who knows what the future holds... i talked to her yesterday for a very long time, and we made a promise to talk as much as possible.. i am even taking a trip out to see her before the tour starts ... she is and will always be my best-friend ... the new Heart to Heart book with her mom has some good pictures of us in it, and is actually a good book ... her CD is doing very well ... she will break records for being a female artist and selling a million her first week ... congrats B!... anyway, as for me i met with Sketchers (the shoe company) and they are willing to do a sponsorship ... which means i will appear on a post card for them with "new artist to look for", and their Logo.. i will also have a fan page on their site... i meet with some record labels this week and next, say a prayer... also BOP has decided to do a two page article on my solo career... and for everyone in Germany, Bravo magazine will be doing an interview and a photo-shoot for myself, and one other dancer for Britney... You see i have not left her, i have only taken a break to work on my singing, acting and other things ... hopefully i will still do videos and award shows and whatever else may come up that doesn't conflict with my career... thank you to all that have written into magazines and have let your voice be heard ... it is because of you i am able to speak... will write again soon... we may never know what we are able to achieve if we don't try... me TJ

"Well as you know by now, i TJ Espinoza will not be continuing the summer leg of the tour... i know, for some of you it is a shock because as many of you said in letters to me, whenever we see Britney, we see you to... well hopefully you will still see me!!! in her smile... it was my decision to stay behind and work on my music so that all of you will be able to put a voice with the image that is me... i will hopefully be working to bring you something soon... i have meetings set up in the next few weeks to put up my web site and with record labels... this was impossible when i was traveling everyday... now i have time... i know it is hard to be a fan/friend when you don't see me as often as you would like... that is why i ask you to please write in to the magazines "you read" and ask for more information on me, TJ... BOP is going to run a few articles and pictures about what i am doing next... this is not the end but only the beginning... Britney in her own words wishes me the best and when i am ready she said i can be an opening act for her... never stop dreaming of what you wish to become... i thank you so much for the continued support you have always shown me, now i need it most, and know you will always come through... it is the chances that we take in life that show us a brighter tomorrow... Britney and i will always be best friends... nothing will come between us, not even distance... we will just have outrageous phone bills... and thank you so much for asking about me at MTV live... it put a smile on my face to know that you wondered where i was... you have not forgotten me and i will not forget about you... thank you... good-night... TJ"

"hey everyone its TJ.. i am writing to let you know about what i have been doing in the past few weeks... i have traveled to New York to tape a show for Mtv called "first listen". this new show will give fans a sampling of Brit's new c.d. The show airs May 9th. Saw my friends on Brodway in a show called, "AIDA"... it was very inspiring... We then hit Germany and England to do promotional performances for the new single "Oops, I did it Again." Britney has great success in Europe, so our performances were well received. In London i had the opportunity to meet Dawn Robinson, formerly of EnVogue, and Raphael Saadiq who sing together in a new group called Lucy Pearl. After London, we travelled to Hawaii to tape Britney's Fox special which will air June 9th. Hawaii was beautiful...the people, the beaches, the scenery. I got to snorkel and swim with Dolphins. I met the singer Joe, who has an amazing c.d. off Jive records... it was like a dream come true, meeting someone i admire and swimming with the beautiful dolphins... i also took a picture and met Kid Rock, who seems to be a nice guy. I leave tomorrow to do more promos in Tokyo and Paris. Britney will be starring and singing on Saturday Night Live on May 13th. Watch Rosie O'Donnell on May 15th. Her show covers Britney's concert behind the scenes. Thank You so much for all your support and love...always me ,tj"
