A Kwanza Hall Celebration

Councilman Kwanza Hall

I was invited out to a Kwanzaa celebration with councilman Kwanza Hall. I’ve never really celebrated Kwanzaa or knew too much about this holiday. Going to the event last night, taught me alot. The event was held at the beautiful Paris on Ponce and this place was filled with alot of artifacts and fun stuff.I had a smile on my face as soon as I entered the building! It reminded me of being on the set of Moulin Rouge! I loved the atmosphere and the place was a great location for Kwanza’s event!

I got a chance to chat with Kwanza and ask him what made him pick this location and he said that Paris on Ponce was in his district and it just felt right. I agree that it was a great spot! The food was awesome and we got to sample different foods from all cultures, great idea. This event was about diversity and bringing people together,he did a great job! The room was filled with all ethnic backgrounds.

Kwanza and Jovita Moore

There was plenty of entertainment as well! Jovita Moore was the host for the evening and she introduced alot of different acts. I got to see dancers from HBO Crew,singer Heston, singer Cymia,the Nicolas House choir,singer Joy, Relapse comedy theatre,and so many more. Guess what you guys, I got a chance to learn african dance with Giwayen Mata! I was asked to come on stage and learn a couple of african dance moves! It was a very entertaining night and I would like to thank councilman Kwanza Hall for inviting me out! Please enjoy the pics and Happy Kwanza! I would also like to thank Christian for doing my makeup for the event!

Big Boi’s Benefit at David Yurman

Friday, November 13th, 2009

Big Boi

Last night I was at a Pinktabulous event again! I was invited out to rapper, Antwon Big Boi Patton’s benefit at the prestigious David Yurman jewelry store at Lenox Mall.It was a private affair and they closed the store down to host this Pinktastic event. I saw some fab people there as my girlfriend and I mingled with the socialites of Atlanta, munched on goodies and sipped on Pink Champagne( I was loving that).

Councilman Kwanza Hall,Big Boi and Tommy Lester

Some faces were very new to me but I did get to meet alot of Big Boi’s board members from his Big Kidz Foundation councilman Kwanza Hall and Tommy Lester.I did see party goer Kenny Burns, and radio personality Ryan Cameron stop by. Ryan held up his purchase, cheesing real big, I wonder did he buy his wife an early Christmas gift? I also saw the fab Vincent Marinez(Fashionado) style guru and he had on some fierce cuff links, hott!

Radio Personality Ryan Cameron

A percentage of the purchases from the store last night went towards Big Boi’s foundation. Big Boi does some great things with the kids in the community. I know they will have big smiles on their faces from all his efforts. If you are interested in finding out more about his foundation or how you can donate, please visit the website at: www.bigkidzfoundation.org. Thanks to Jennifer Lester for inviting me to the event, I had a blast! Enjoy the pics below!
