Rocketboom viewers - do not press the unsubscribe button yet.
Andrew Baron has discovered another very glamorous woman to replace Amanda Congdom. Though Andrew isn't confirming, it's very likely that former MTV Europe presenter Joanne Colan will be the new Rocketboom girl.
Now the next herculean task for Andrew will be to prevent things from breaking apart again when Joanna attains the iconic status of Amanda, else that may spell the doom of Rocketboom.
Two great minds, Scoble and Jason, have lot of advice and good suggestions for managers about retaining talent - "the more talented the person the more work it is to support them because they want to do bigger and better things all the time. " [Thanks Amit]
Nathan Weinberg would be much pleased as the new Rocketboom host is not a blonde but a Brunette. The MTV French website has a detailed bio of Joanne Colan. She is from Lancashire, UK. Jeremiah Owyang links to a video of Joanne Colan on Fine Living, Any Given Latitude a Travel Show.
Comparing the picture of Joanne with Amanda, who do you think is more pretty ? More discussion happening at TechMeme.
Update: Joanne Colan is confirmed to be the new face of Rocketboom. Joanna even made her debut blog post here today - "You've found me - Joanne C., Host of Rocketboom.com"

Not sure about who is more pretty but Amanda has better tits. Do you have any nude pictures of Amanda?
I was looking at Amanda Congdon boobs in the picture above and they are certainly more sexy when compared with Joanne.

That was the most peculiar translation of French I've seen
"Joanne saw himself entrusting his first emission on television (a daily show!) after having made a test to give pleasure with a friend. It then turned to MTV, because it was intrigued by the international success of the chain and wanted more."
Err. "rocket" "boom"...

It's a bit difficult to judge who's better but if you can send me Amanda Congdon pictures in swimsuit or bikini, I 'll be able to guess if Joanne is more hot than Amanda ?
