THE ‘Donegal Is Happy’ video is set to go global.
Parts of the video which already seen by more than 129,000 people – and celebrating where we live – are to be shown on the Oprah Winfrey Show.
The video has been viewed by the production team for Oprah Prime, the popular show that is hosted and produced by Oprah, and they love the feel-good video, says Denise Blake.
“Oprah Prime has an upcoming episode of Oprah and music producer/artist Pharrell Williams. They want to include a segment of Donegal is Happy in a compilation of videos representing all the different countries who have celebrated the song Happy.”
The Donegal team of Denise, Shane Wallace, Shane Murphy, Denise Blake, Grace Ann McGarvey and Lisa Burkitt are thrilled.
Donegal is Happy was filmed in 24 locations throughout Donegal from Glencolmcille to Banba’s Crown over three days and the hundreds of dancers who took part include Irish dancers, Zumba dancers, hairdressers and butchers, adults and children as well as a dancing camel and goose.
“Oprah Prime will bring an unbelievable opportunity to showcase the county and the wonderful spirit of its people,” said Denise.
