Their universal appeal and safe, family friendly themes blast kids into a world of hip music, funky design and out-of-this world entertainment.   The representation deal comes on the heels of The Star Girls recent hugely successful debut US tour, "Rock This World," which attracted thousands of kids and families at each event. Big Tent Entertainment plans to develop a wide-reaching licensing and marketing program surrounding the group that will initially focus on establishing partnerships in television, home video, apparel, publishing, gifts and accessories, and home and room décor.   The company will also focus on establishing promotional partnerships for The Star Girls and build widespread internet, retail and direct to consumer programs.     " The Star Girls high energy, interactive performance blew me away," said Rich Collins, President and CEO, Big Tent Entertainment.
