Hey you guys thanks for stopping by today! I’ve been M.I.A. because we moved and boy was that a task! I almost fainted without internet for half a day lol.  Well not to fret though, I have a great post this morning! Let me tell you how honored I was to get an invite to the premier party of, I Can Do Bad All By Myself“! I’ve been doing my tv show for 4 years now and I’ve never got invited to anything with the Tyler Perry studios and they are right here in Atlanta,Ga. Maybe it was an oversight I’m not sure but I hawled ass out of here trying to get there on time lol.

Exec Prod Roger Bobb

Well, I got all cute  and headed out to Regal Cinemas Atlantic Station to see this movie that I heard so much about. “I can do bad all by myself” is another movie Tyler Perry has cranked out. This gentleman stays busy and did you guys know that he has a talk show on TBS called, The Tyler Perry Show? I had no clue, this guy is busy lol! Ok so back to the movie premier! I get there and the first person I see was Alphonso Ribeiro, I was like,” hey there is the guy from Silver Spoons”,for the old heads we know who he is. Im not sure what he is up to now,people were swarmed around him, so I didnt get a chance to talk with him. Other celeb sightings I saw were Eva and Lance(will get back to them)Kenny Lattimore,Ms.Sophia,Wanda Sykes,Tanya Ski,Bishop Eddie Long and his son,Young Starlets from Daddys Lil Girl, China Anne McClain,Lauryn Alisa McClain and Sierra Aylina McClain, those lil girls are too cute and so mannerable! Exec Prod Roger Bobb was in the house as well Rueben Cannon.

Actor Alfonso Riberio

Taraji P. Henson played April a selfish,alcoholic singer who cared nothing about her family. I know a girl just like that but I wont say any names here. In the movie Taraji got a chance to sing and she has a nice voice. Taraji and Mary J. Blige wore some very nice outfits too and loved Gladys Knight hats! Their shoes were fun to see too! Actor/Hotness Brian White who Ive interviewed at the premier of  Stomp The Yard and right here on Pink Spotlight played a bad guy…Yikes! I see Brian can do a mean dark side,great acting and nice butt shot woot! Mary J Blige,Gladys Knight,Tyler Perry(Madea),Hottie Adam Rodriguez,Hope Olaide Wilson all played great roles in the movie.  Marvin Winans had me crying when he started to sing omg. I never cry in movies but he had a powerful voice and I could feel the tears wellin up, so Im mad at him for making me cry,but wow he can sing very touching.

Dont expect to see Madea too much in this flick because she mainly did a cameo appearance. Madea probably had to go give somebody a beat down or something but the time she was in the movie she was funny.

I give the movie a B-. Im not a movie critic by no means but in my “personal” opinion it was a good story line with great characters and you could take your kids to see it. There is great life lessons to learn and everyone can get something out of it hopefully.

Ok now the scoop! The after party was held across the street at Strip restaurant( www.heretoserverestaurants.com). The party was jumpin and jammed packed. I asked Lance and Eva did they set a wedding date? Lance smiled and said,” yes we did”! Were getting married July 17th 2010, he said it going to be held in  L.A. I asked him what he was up to and he said he’s in a new movie coming out March 19th called, “Our Family Wedding”. The director Rick Famuyiwa made other movies such as, The Wood. Other actors to star in this movie are Forrest Whitaker,America Ferrera,Regina King,Charlie Murphy and more.
Shortly afterwards Eva walked over and hugged her boo and while looking at her up close, wow she is drop dead gorgeous! I said, hello there what have you been up to lately Ms.Eva? She smiled and said,” well Im playing Tyra on The Young And Restless”. I laughed and said,” wow thats my daughters name”. They are a great looking couple,congrats and I wish them well!

Then I ran into Kenny Lattimore! This handsome songbird was so pleasant to talk to! I said, hey where is Chante? He said,” well she is home with the kids and my son Kenny Jr, started school today, he is six years old”. My director Kristie and I looked at each other and said,Awh how sweet! He also has a step daughter named Sophia as well. He told me he has been traveling around the country for his non profit, to educate people and show awareness about kids in Africa. He is very passionate about his cause called,www.theashefoundation.org.  Please visit to find out more!

Later on in the evening I spoke to Frank Ski’s wife Tanya who had a walk on role. She said she won it at an auction after she bidded on a poster from Tyler Perry’s Diary of a Mad Black Woman! She said,” basically I paid for that role”,lol. Tanya played a waitress in the movie,go head girl, get your acting on! Radio personality from V-103 Ms.Sophia,  made an appearance in the move as well,he did a great job! I asked Comedian Wanda Smith, what she thought of Ms.Sophia’s role and she said, she was very proud of him,it was long over do”. The after party was really fun the bites and drinks were on point and we shut down the whole place,Taylor Made(Indakno),my director Kristie Godeau,Christal Nims(Enchanted Pr) and her Hottie/QDog  friend Marvin!
