Last night I went to a very cool award show held at the Geisha House at Atlantic Station. Gillette and Rolling Out magazine came together to host an award show for style icons in the entertainment business and local Barbers who make our men look handsome and well groomed. At the award show, Vivica Fox and Fonzworth Bentley hosted the affair.

I also got a chance to talk with the sexy Ms. Vivica Fox. She told me she was in a steamy new video with 5o cent that will debut today called,”Do you think about me”. She is also starring as Keke Palmer’s mom, Mrs. Jackson on their new hit show True Jackson on Nickelodeon. She also stars in a show on HBO called, Curb your enthusiasm. I told her I loved her shoes she said they were by a designer named,Nicholas Kirkwood.They were too hott!

I also bumped into Stephanie Mills! I’ve never met her and she was such a delight to talk to. She said she has a new album coming out next year and it’s a live greatest hits album. She is also launching a new studio. She also introduced me to her fiance, Johnny Taylor! She currently resides in Charlotte, North Carolina. I asked her what brought her to Atlanta, she said her fiance knows founder of Rolling Out magazine Munson Steed.

Ryan Cameron wore a custom made suit as well as Frank Ski and Mark Hayes. Sean Garrett looked hot with his leather gloves and silver suit. Lance Gross wore a hot look with a stylish hat that he said he picked up in new york by a place called,Rag n Bone.Lance told me to watch out for his new movie he stars in called, Our Family Wedding.
