Plug Into The Scene: Chilli, Kasim Reid Floyd Maywheather & More Party It Up At Charles Mathis Mansion

Thursday, October 1st, 2009

DSC_0045

TLC’s Chilli held a special event at Charles Mathis mansion in ATL a couple of days go celebrating something – I’m sure for what exactly.  I was supposed to attend this event to cover it for my new TV show, but I didn’t get the memo that it was a black tie affair.

But thanks to the homie Freddyo, here are some pics from the party.  Chilli’s got the blogz buzzing cause boxing champion Floyd Maywheather was all up on Chilli like white on rice. Could they be dating?

It’s doubtful that they are because wouldn’t that make her new VH1 show kind of pointless? Sidebar, who knew that Floyd was so short. I mean he barely clears Chilli and we all know she’s tiny.

I’m sorry, but Floyd aint whopping my ass. Suddenly I feel confident enough to get in the ring and challenge him for his belt. [So kidding]

Anyway, Mayoral elect Kaseem Ried with the “Cusp Leadership Award” from Music is My Business and Enchanted PR. Q Parker (112) and singer songwriter Cri$tyle kicked off the event with what I hear was a beautiful collaboration.

Kiddunot.com was on hand for Kim Kardahian’s Miami boutique opening Wednesday night. Special correspondent Kodak was on hand to get Gyantunplugged.come some top notch photo’s from the affair.

A success indeed! Just one day after we learned the Kardashians’ new Dash boutique had been defaced, Kim K., along with her two sisters Khloe and Kourtney, were all smiles Wednesday night. The girls threw a launch party for their new South Florida boutique at The Clevelander on Miami Beach–and I was there to party with them. It was an awesome turn out & these girls are not Hollywood, contrary to popular belief, they are down to earth.

Plug Into The Scene 5/6/09: Oprah & The First Lady Attend Time’s ‘Most Influential’, Jay-Z Takes In Game, Adopts A Child For The Night, Rihanna Is Walking Sex & More

Wednesday, May 6th, 2009

Michelle Obama and Oprah Winfrey were picture perfect at last night’s Time’s 100 Most Influential people.

Oprah, Whoopi and Suze Orman were all smiles for the camera. Whomever the lucky photographer is who snagged this photo probably doens’t realize the value of this pic because it’s been rumored for YEARS that Oprah and Whoopi simply do not get along.

I hear the tension from the set of their movie “The Color Purple” still carries with them today. And for those who are staring at the computer screen crazy, notice how Whoopi wasn’t apart of Oprah’s Legend’s ball.

The way my mind works, this picture is a blatant message to Beyonce that her man is ready to be a daddy [Jay-Z taking in a game at Staples Center as he watched the Lakers take on the Rockets.]

Ciara, and Kim K Hennessy Black launch event at the World Trade Center. Sigh, why do we care about Kim K like we do?

Gabrielle Union partied it up at Hollywood’s Bar Momount for for Cinco de Mayo.

Damn, that Rihanna. She’s walking sex with those boots right there OMG.

Models Selita Ebanks and Jessica White helped celebrate Bourgeoisie Shoes affair last week at the boutique in Harlem. Shout out to Nicole Garner of The Garner Circle!

Plug Into The Scene: Ciara & Friends Get Their Party On At The Investment Club + 50 Cent Is Officially An ATLIEN!

Thursday, April 30th, 2009

dsc_0331

Last night Ciara made a rare appearance at local Atlanta hot spot, The Investment Club [Luckie Lounge for the uncool]. I have to be honest my whole reason for going was to see if Atlanta still has luv for CiCi. My intial thought was that nobody was going to show up b/c there seems to be a certain perception that Mrs. Harris has gone Hollywood.

But my notion couldn’t have been further from the truth because ATL came out in a BIG way. The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Young Jeezy, V103’s Greg Street and Elle Duncan, Jazzy Pha, Juelz Santanna, and a host of sports players all stopped through to show Ciara luv.

You already know I was twittering my ass off from the party

Check out the pics and coverage after the jump.
