Chilli honors classmate Mayoral candidate Sen.Kasim Reed!

Tuesday, September 29th, 2009

Senator Kasim Reed, Chilli and Will Packer

I’m always going somewhere fun & fabulous and tonite was just that! The beautiful Rozanda “Chilli” Thomas honored her former classmate, Mayoral candidate Senator Kasim Reed. This black tie, red carpet affair was held at Entertainment Attorney, Charles Mathis’s estate in Atlanta. The event was called,”A celebration of new direction“. Everyone looked Pinktabulous in their gowns and tuxedos!

As I looked down the red carpet, I saw singers Christal and QParker,the group 3D,actresses Erica Hubbard and Nicki Micheaux from Lincoln Heights,FilmMaker Will Packer,and Boxer Floyd Mayweather. I got a chance to talk to alot of the celebs but was very inquisitive to talk with Floyd Mayweather. I’ve never met him before and heard he was a hoot! I asked him why he was in town because I know he lives in Las Vegas. He quickly told me,” because of Chilli”, “we went out a couple of times and I know her family too”.”I flew in town just to see her” as he smiled at me, his eyes lit up! Hmm?

As the nite went on, I did notice Floyd all up in Chilli’s ear whispering sweet nothings…as she grinned! What was that about, Okay? They would make a cute couple because both of them are petite and he seems like a cool cat! His pockets arent that bad either…shut up!

I asked Chilli what was her reality show, The Chilli Project going to be about and she said it wasn’t going to be a typical reality show. She will focus on her issues id dating and why she is so picky. She told me women shouldn’t settle and that they deserve more! She said she is holding out for the right guy lol. She further went on to say, it’s going to be very well put together, no hollering, yelling and looking a hot mess on tv! I hope so because The Atlanta Housewives are giving me an ulcer with their show, smh! We will see Chilli, I’m rooting for you!

Chilli looked amazing in her skintight black dress! Her shoes were to die for and if Im not mistaken they were YSL. Her makeup and hair was gorgeous,she looked very classy! It was alot of men there with no dates in tuxedos too, I was in heaven! Nothing like a well dressed man in a suit and dont have nice teeth… chile bye! You would have thought that,Chilli would have met somebody at the party. It was some very influential men in the room with 401 k’s and dental insurance lmao!

Later in the evening QParker and Christal sang a duet. Chilli then awarded her former high school classmate, Senator Kasim Reed with a plaque to say job well done! Will Packer said a brief speech and then Senator Kasim took the mic. He talked about how are children need great role models and how young kids need guidance. He made alot of sense because so many of our youth are out here just lost. I pray we come together as a community and get these kids back on track!

The evening was so fun mixing and mingling with everyone and I had a ball hanging out with Floyd Mayweather! He took my camera and started taking pics of me and my girlfriends Tish and Monica. Floyd was getting his photography on, so he gets a shout out for that and photo credits lol. Thanks Floyd I felt special lol.
Thanks to Christal Jordan of Enchanted Pr for the personal invite, I had a wonderful time! Check out Video clip of me interviewing Floyd about dating Chilli!
