Overview

Soo, everything went fairly well last week. Pridefest was tons of fun and of course extremely interesting. As previously stated on a Facebook post, some of the gay men had better runway struts than me!! Lessons please? And the compliment, so very nice. My models did rock! Well, most of the them, and the weather was decent. Moving along, to the Trina afterparty at Alahambra Palace. It was a very nice turnout. We arrived around 11:30pm and got right to work starting with a filmed intro outide of the club/restaurant. Channel T.E.N and BPTV (http://www.youbepictured.com/) were definitely greeted with open arms and given lots of love. The opening acts were not too shabby. There were performances by Charm, Hot2Def, 4am, Kenyon Martin, Lee England Jr (http://www.leeenglandjr.com/) and Nikki Lynette. This event was hosted by chicago comedian Leon Rogers and Mustafa Rocks and Sean Mac were the DJ delight. And of course Trina herself (http://www.trinafan.com/) represented. She was glamorous in all silver with a matching blinged out microphone and donned a rockstar long ponytail. The crowd was already hyped by the wonderful opening acts and were ready with camera phones in hand for the baddest chick to grace the stage. Trina did a little bit of her new stuff from her senior album "Amazing" and of course took us back to some of her old hits. The event was pretty good and I had the pleasure of interviewing Chicago Larry, Montez with Tez Management, E-Dub with Streetfame Entertainment (http://www.myspace.comiseve30/, and hip hop violinist Lee England Jr. Footage will be available shortly at http://www.youbepictured.com/. Unfortunately, due to a delay in the start of the performances I was unable to catch up with the baddest chick herself, but we definitely will be bumping heads in the future. Whats next on Ms. Erica Nicole's calender? Well, this week its Country Fest and next week possibly Tierra Mari concert/afterparty and all white party with Chicago Scene. Oh, I almost forgot, Trey Songz 07/01/10 at the Taste of Chicago. Still working on getting that interview. More to come..
