So what does Chilli Want? PLUS party with her TONIGHT at the Gold Room!

Chilli at her Atlanta private viewing
Party with Chilli

Ok so who watched the show last night?? Will Chilli REALLY find love?
Will Tionna (love coach) hurt someone with those tigobitties?
And what's wrong with a little pork chop in your life?

Well the member of the famed pop group TLC is attempting to do so in a new VH1 reality show (answers to the other posed questions explored at an unknown date. just stay TUNED!). She explores dating men with the help of a sassy NY dating coach, Tionna Smalls in order to possibly find, "the one". It's smart the coach is there because ya girl is picky. No not just picky, as in, he needs to be tall, nice teeth, and working, NO. I'm talking about PICKY all the way down to what he will or won't eat. DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN. Well good luck. And i don't say that in a sarcastic way. I think it's good to have a list of desires you want in a mate. HOWEVER be flexible. AND be willing to work on YOU. There is no perfection. Which is good because it keeps life interesting (And allows counselors to stay employed and get paid. *wink*).

So that poses a question, are women in general too picky? Hmm. Many men would shout a loud, "YES!" however boys, i have encountered quite a few VERY picky guys in my day. I'm talking about the ones that want what they can't even provide or want a "bad chick" but they just all together look BAD! SMH. Anyway i had the opportunity to attend the private viewing for the new show a few days ago here in Atlanta at Straits restaurant and i promise, the entire room was laughing! So if you missed it last night, catch Chilli's fun show, "What Chilli Wants" on VH1 Sunday nights! Good TV. Social Addiction APPROVED!

Thanks to Christal Jordan of Enchanted PR for the invite. Such great PR! She goes hard for Chilli!

The Soul Train stops in Atlanta

Kiara Akita (Filming "Between Love & a Hard Place" next month) Look for our interview next week!
Tyler Perry's "House of Payne"
This is some SERIOUS all natural skin care. Wonderful scents! (Skincare by Feleciai)
The Odelia wine, i got one for myself...tastes like grapes fresh off the vine. INCREDIBLE! (South African company, 7 Sisters)

Soul Train Tuesday popped off with Prominence PR's premiere gifting suite. Incredible vendors and some celebrity eye candy walked through the building at Room Servic Lounge, to get a load of the goodies like: Wine, cigars, clothing and skin products. I got some cool schwag myself. Woohoo! Thanks to Keisha McCotry.

Debra Lee (BET), Ludacris & the beautiful Toni Braxton
Kandi, Trey, Rashida, Toya

Estelle. I hear she likes "America Boys"...

Straits, midtown ATL location. Great food, drinks & it's HUGE.

Uptown had a party, Joia (i drove by for a minute, Lyfe Jennings & Tameka Foster-Raymond were there) had a party but aint no party like a Ludacris party obviously, because many of the Soul Train celebrity participants headed over to his restaurant Straits to end the night right into the next day. I arrived late because my company (http://www.nuanceworldmedia/) is involved in a movie casting (check the website for more details!) But even by the time i got there it was still packed from wall to wall. People with SOUL sure know how to party! Do you got soul?

I must say that this year Soul Train awards TRUMPED BET's. Hmmm. Well, let the games begin...

This past weekend was of course the BET Hip Hop weekend that has been held annually in Atlanta during the past few falls. Well D.Woods, formerly of Danity Kane is coming out with her official solo project and what better timing than to do a listening party preview than while all of young black Hollywood is in town anyway? Wise move.

The event was packed. One look at the crowd and you could see that she was surrounded by true friends and not just fly by night followers. Food, drinks, good company and most importantly dope music. The dancer and writer can actually sing and if anything i believe being in the confines of the popular all girls group that abruptly dismantled last year took away from that fact. She is able to shine better as a solo artist. She's got some fun tracks, love tracks, club bangers all thanks to great production and a convincing sound. She's not Beyonce. She's not Amerie. But does she have to be? D is confidently driving in her lane that makes many sharp turns but will bring her toward musical success. Plus she's so gracious it's hard not to luv her.

Look out for more news on D.Woods here in the coming weeks AND of course look out for her album, The Grey Area dropping December 8th. Yehaaaw right before my birthday! I'll let yall who haven't, hear a couple tracks...you be the judge. Look out!

In the tradition of the BET Hip Hop Awards the Atlanta annual style suite helped to set the tone the night before the awards. This year's suite lounge was bigger and grander than last year. Because if you are going to do it again, you MUST do it better. Check out who came and what goodies were given. I got to indulge as well and above shared a couple new favorites that i fully plan to support. YAY! The above pics are people that i caught the hour that i spent there but there were other attendees of the goodie bag festivities like: Lil Duval, Sheree Whitfield, OJ Da Juice Man, Toccara, Tameka Cottle, Toya Carter, Eva Marcille, Lance Gross and more. And hello who doesn't like GOOD free stuff? The Garner Circle secured partnered w' some great vendors!

As you know there were SO many events going on during the weekend. Probably too many as to where they began to sabotage each other in a fight for crowd attendance! I also stopped by the Gentleman Jack Lounge at the Compound Friday evening that was supposed to be a luxory affair put on by Grand Hustle's Jason Geter and Bu (Konvict & Def Jam) however i didn't see them there (you know celebs show late & if it's not poppin' like they like, not at all) then it rained like crazy & to add to my dismay, the DJ only played down south music. HOWEVER the club is looking great & there was plenty of drink in the house if you like that strong dark liquor...you know the kind that tends to get a PYT in trouble. But no worries i went home el-solo that night kids. I knew i had a busy Saturday ahead. I refused to let BET weekend take over my life as i did in years past. You just grow up and what is most important to you changes. As a whole, BET Hip Hop weekend in Atlanta was ok. I have a little feeling that in a couple more runs they will put the red light to the southern hip hop production of these awards. We'll see...

Thank you to the Garner Circle for the invite. Known for cating such clean events!

Drink up!

I love Cognac. Did i ever tell you that? No? Oops guess i failed to mention. Don't want to come off as the writing lush. But since we are going to talk about drinks, let's go there. I LOVE cognac! I can mix it with coke, juice, oooh and don't let it be vanilla cognac...boooy stop. It's a wrap. I'm good for the night. Well in a world where vodka often rules, it looks like i'm not the only one with an appreciation for that fine "brown liquor". Popular rapper, movie star, philanthropist and business owner, Ludacris is growing in his celebrity and continuing to expand into more intellectual pursuits. One of the artists latest business moves is as the face of a new Cognac, Conjure. He even went to France to test the waters and assure the product he was attaching his name to was the best of the best. And what a great time to begin to unveil Conjure but at his annual LudaDay Weekend. LudaDay Weekend starting on a Thursday (if you are in entertainment you know all weekends start on Thursday anyway) opened up to an exclusive and PRIVATE luxory gifting suite in his famed ATL restaurant, Straits. Straits is a wonderful development in midtown offering a casual or even a more fine dining experience boasting multi-levels and private rooms.

The gifting suite held in the basement of Straits, offered manicures, massages, tailoring, tasting sponsor Peroni Italian beer (very light), video gaming, gifts and more! Great experience. Luda was joined by several friends and celebrity guests who also joined him upstairs for an exclusive (closed off) dinner. I was upstairs for a while to capture some of the dinner. It was all quite lovely. Afterwards Luda and DTP took it to club Opera to host their party. And you know it was jumping right?!

I really respect how Ludacris is setting himself up to be quite the all around entertainer. He is a young mogul in the making, branding himself but only in the wisest of directions (wonder who his lawyer and business manager is?). Love that. But i expect nothing less from a Virgo...they sure know how to keep that paper coming!

Ludaday Weekend is set aside every year for parties and events centering Luda Chris Bridges. This year he even gave away 20 Nissan cars to people in need, having them write an essay on why they should win a new vehicle. Follow Ludacris & LudaDayWeekend on Twitter to find out more about the other events going on this weekend such as: DJ Appreciation party & hosting a party at club Primal (today), tomorrow's party at Uptown Lounge w' blogger Necole Bitchie (also part of her 3 city birthday party series) & more. I'll be out of town for Labor Day so the other LudaDay Weekend events will miss me, due to my own pre-planned fun on the sun trip. I'm going to the beach babbbby! Wherever you are going to be this weekend, enjoy your holiday darlings. Be safe!

Special thanks to The Garner Circle PR & Branded PR for the event set up & invite.

B.Cox plants one on Tey for me. Cute!

Rocawear partnered with Honey Magazine held an exclusive affair last night at Atlanta's premiere boutique beauty spot, The Glam Bar (Peter's St.) to celebrate Rocawears 10 year anniversary. And the party was definatley GlamRoc. With Grey Goose as the sponsor, the drinks rolled, hand crafted appetizers were served, the DJ kept the music live and celebrities like Teyana Taylor, Rich Girls, B.Cox, Jazze Pha, Vawn, Drumma, Sammie, DJ Trauma (Hot 107.9), Clay Evens and other "the beautiful people" (as i call them) rolled through. My favorite person of the night was definatly Clay Evens (Grand Hustle) who stayed outside for the most part (it was HOT as hades up in that spot with the crowd) clowing in between drinks. He was was my last conversation before i hit the rainy streets for home and he kept me laughing. After the event most of the stars headed to club Pure downtown for another big event joining rappers like Young Joc and JD as well as artist Meka Means. Oh and no shortage of groupies...so i heard from my friend Taylor via his Twitter. But that's the norm in ATL beeybe. Get used to it chicos...

GlamRoc rocked, very HOT event, litterally with how full it was! I had to step out for air a few times but it was well worth it. The Garner Circle did a great job.
