NFL Player Charles Grant with kids

NFL Player, Charles Grant had a charity event the whole weekend in Atlanta,Ga. Friday nite, I got a chance to see what Charles does best! Play with the kids at ESPN Zone in Buckhead! He wanted to give back to the kids at KippWay Academy and KippSFA for their good behavior and academics! He was introduced by The Apprentice reality star, Marshawn Evans. Grant talked about how its not how you start off,its how you finish! That was a great statement. He told the kids that he had classmates that were honor roll students who are now on drugs,so with that said, the kids learned to do your best and come out a winner! Ha!

There were more in attendance, but I couldnt get to everyone lol. They all came out to support Charles and his non profit for the kids! Charles had a Pool Party,Black Carpet and more.After the dinner and a speech, the kids got to play games for 3 hours and hang out with the players and get autographs. No Reggie Bush was not in the building but wish he was! That would have been the icing on the cake and a great highlite for me and the kids lol.For more info on Charles Grant’s non profit visit: www.charlesgrantlive.com Thanks to Charles for giving my kids v.i.p. wristbands too! Thanks to Erik Burton www.profileprllc.com for the media invite!

Kwames all tied up!

Thursday, March 26th, 2009

Pics by me!

Kwame Jackson, The Apprentice reality star is really tied up these days lol. He had a successful run on The Apprentice but now he has a launched a new Executive Neckwear line called, Krimson by Kwame. I had the pleasure of meeting Kwame awhile ago and he was still smiling as usual. I asked Kwame why he decided to launch a necktie line and he said that,”well everyone always wanted to know where my ties came from,so I said why not launch my own line”.

Well from going to his launch party last nite at an estate in Atlanta, he is sure to have alot of men and some female customers. I was loving the girls that were on staff wearing their pink ties! Actually I got my very own pink one to sport on my show,Im going to be so stylisth lol! The ties are sold online or exclusively at Belks or Macy’s department stores check to see where in your area.

The ties start at 75.00 and up. Last nite you could have purchased 2 for 100, not bad. There are alot of designs you can choose from, I was loving the paisley,flower and striped neckties that are 100% handmade imported woven silk. He also has stylish cufflinks and other accesories. I wish Kwame lots of success in the necktie business,I find that very different,keep up the good work! Thanks Curtis of Nvision1inc for the invite!
