I got a chance to meet a Pinktabulous woman in business, which was Lisa Price! I’ve been following her career for awhile now and she said,”Tami its been 14yrs”! She was very pleasant and told me it was alot of work starting out, but well worth it. Lisa told me she was from Brooklyn Ny. I asked her what was her fav product and she said, she loves the Hair Milk because it doesnt leave your hair sticky and that its her best selling item. I asked her how she liked our  humid weather here in Atlanta and she said it was very hot, lol.

Me interviewing Lisa Price

Celebs that came out to support this event was Boris Kodjoe, Mr. and Mrs. Steve Harvey, Derek Blanks,Michael Knight,Monique, NFL, players and NBA players and everybody that was shopping in the mall lol. It was a packed affair. I also got a chance to congratulate Steve Harvey on his new book,”Act like a lady,Think like a Man“.

He looked very serious when I approached him with my mic. I introduced myself to him and then said,” hey Steve I’m from Cleveland”. I use to do your ex wife nails(the mother of his two twins) lol, he looked a lil uncomfortable but smiled and let me proceed with my interview. He also told me he was a resident of Atlanta, I was like wow,Ive never seen him around town but I have seen his new wife out. I loved her platinum ring and quickly zoomed in to get a pic of that puppy. I also liked how they complimented each other with their coordinating outfits,they looked very stylish man. I do believe his book is doing extremely well too! If Im not mistaken, I think I overheard someone saying a movie is in the works of his Bestselling book, wow, you go Steve! We will have to stay tuned to find out more!

I told her I was trying to get on her show F.A.T.Chance and she told me, I needed to eat some more lol. She laughed and we chatted about what she was up to. She said, she has a new talk show coming out that will air on B.E.T. titled, “The Monique Show”. Tonite Monique was casual, with a nice healthy looking hairdo,a pair of blue jean capris and nice top with gucci heels, she was very funny and real, you can tell she was very relaxed, I like her,go girl! She said the tapings will be done at Turner Broadcasting studios and that the show starts taping Sept 1st. I’m going to try to make it to atleast one of those tapings! Good luck with your new show Monique! You can tell she likes people alot like me because she posed for pics and chatted with everyone,making it nice to be around her.

Kevan Hall, which Is well renowned for his dazzling gowns was in Atlanta,Ga to show is Spring/Summer 09 collection, which was called Africa: A Safari. kh12 Africa: A SafariThe event was held at Twelve Hotel in Atlantic Station. Lexus was the sponsor.

Actress,Holly Robinson Peete was the host of the show and she talked about her sons Autism and how any outfits purchased would benefit her non profit organization called, www.HollyRob4Kids.org. I had a chance to interview Holly and she spoke of how expensive it is to care for children with Autism and how there is so many kids being diagnosed with this horrible disorder. Some celebs that came out to support was Keisha Knight,Essence from Half and Half,Boris Kodjoe and his wife, Angie Stone,athletes and many more.

I must say I was blown away. The show started off with a tribal dance and boy were they talented! Kevan showed 59 pieces and they were gorgeous and especially the long gowns omg! From what I found out, his gowns are worn all over the red carpets like the SAG Awards, Emmy’s,Golden Globes,Image Awards and more. Ruby Dee wore his dress to the Oscars which she was nominee. Kevan’s inspiration he told me came from Dinka,Maasai and Zulu Tribes. Kevan lives in Los Angeles,Ca and has been a designer for over 20 years. There was a multil colored hand painted  gown that I recognized, come to find out Kimora Lee wore it on a red carpet not to long ago, price tag $12,000.00 smack a roos wow!.kimoral Africa: A Safari

The rest of his collection can run you from $1,400.00 and up. To see the craftmanship up close and personal, you have to give it to him,Kevan makes any women look beautiful! The clothing was so detailed and oh so pretty. Kevan used mud cloths, tattoo matelasse,crushed organza,printed chiffons and painted twill for this collection. The collection made you feel like you were on a real safari.
