uptown real men wear pink018 Real Men Wear Pink Pics & Recap

I’m kicking myself for not attending this Pinkerrific affair last night held at Justin’s Restaurant. I have so many events that I’m invited to and its so hard to know which will be a hit and what will be miss! Its always a gamble and Atlanta is so big that its hard to attend all these events at the same time and with our traffic… forget about it! I was invited out to this pinktastic affair but I was tied up with covering other stuff. You cant win them all but I’m truly loving all the pinkness in these photos shot by my friend Paras Griffin for Uptown Magazine, who was the media sponsor. It was hosted by Camille Binder, Ryan Glover, Bryan Michael Cox and more. It was a benefit to raise money for breast cancer awareness in which they raised $5,000, great job! Check out everyone looking fancy in their Pinktastic outfits! Signature pink bow ties were available for purchase and there was also a special performance by Musiq Soulchild. Enjoy the pics! xoxo

In honor of how serious breast cancer is,the White House has gone from White to Pink! Thursday evening on lookers got a glance of the white house new shade of pink. This is so pinktastic that President Obama sees how serious this disease is.They wanted to raise awareness and this was a fab way. I wish I was there to get pictures of that beautiful moment! I’m praying for my 2 dear friends. One had surgery yesterday and my other friend is still fighting every day. God give us all strength.
