I guess with the "black model" issue doing so well last year, they decided to add some more chocolate. This time in doll form. Loves it!!! I remember getting my first black barbie. She was so fly and actually dark brown like me. I now had a friend for my white barbie (Black barbies weren't always in stock) I could dress her up millions of ways, and I couldn't wait til birthdays and xmas for new accesories. Memories :)

Playboy Mansion Party For The Espy's
So I get an invitation to a party hosted at the Playboy Mansion for an Espy charity event and I decide to go. I'm really glad I did go because it was a great party with new faces. I had sworn off the party scene but charity events bring out a different crowd. I've been to every hot annual award show/hot party in every city, I've even traveled abroad for a hot party so I'm not impressed by it all. Been there, done that. So it's safe to say I am over it. I'm not knocking the next person for it, but it's just not my thing anymore. Friends have been wondering where I've been. I'm chilling hard at the crib! lol I only make appearances at charity events, movie premieres, concerts, comedy showcases, personal dinner/house parties, daytime stuff etc etc. I have no purpose to be in the club. I'm not single, so I'm not looking for a man. That's not a good place to meet one anyway. I only want to network. The people I want to connect with aren't in the clubs. Now when I get to Chicago, I might have to go to a Steppers Set because I LOVE to step. Other than that, everything else is played out to me. So to all those club promoters, please stop sending me invites to weekly parties. I'm NOT coming.
Here's a few pics from that night with me and the crew. It was an amazing night. Great food, great people, hot music, open bar, great networking, live entertainment by the Pussy Cat Dolls, all to raise money for various charities!

Unreleased Footage of MJ Pepsi Burn Shoot
US Weekly just bought this never seen before footage from Pepsi. The commercial was shot in 1984. This is when Michael probably developed his addiction to pain killers. That looked scary as hell.

Nonstop house music, good eats, great folks, alcoholic beverages flowing, great weather = A BLAST! I won't miss it next year!!!!!!!! DJ's include: DJ Terry Hunter, Dj Wayne Williams, Maurice Joshua and DJ FLEX. Shout out to Dr. Luv.

Judith Hill
So I know a lot of people were wondering who the Asian chick singing "Heal The World" was, at the Michael Jackson Memorial yesterday. Her name is Judith Hill and she had just gotten booked to be one of Michael's background singers for the "This Is It" tour. Well that didn't happen as we all know but her dream to be a singer looks quite promising after singing so beautifully in front of the entire world. I think a star is born. Her mother is Japanese and her father is black. Check out this YouTube video I found on her. She has a grown and sexy vibe to her.

Azja Pryor's Open Letter To Michael Jackson's Accuser
My beautiful friend Azja Pryor was subpoenaed to testify against The Arvizo Family by the defense for Michael Jackson in the 2005 trial. She was a key witness on getting Michael acquitted... Nice write Azja.
-----------------------------------------------
*Dear Gavin, Star, Davellin, and Janet:
After Michael's tragic death last week, I have to say that all the negative feelings
I've had towards your family following the outrageous claims made by you Gavin and your mother Janet--against Michael--came back to me tenfold. The pain, disappointment, anger, and betrayal I feel towards you simply cannot be put into
words.
You have shown me that your greed, lies, and personal gain override any “morals” your family claims to have; and you have proven yourselves to be the kind of people capable of turning your back on the very person who came to your rescue when you were most desperate.
The fact that you falsely accused Michael of the most heinous of acts, and made
his life a living hell in what would become his last years is unthinkable; and I am sure some would say, unforgivable. In your attempts to destroy him once again, you, Gavin, accused the man you called your “best friend” of the one thing that you (and everyone else) knew would completely turn his life inside out.
You took the one thing we all know that Michael cared about most in life--children,
especially children who are suffering, and you tried to turn it into a bad thing. You Janet, as a parent, allowed this, encouraged this, and went forward with the awful lies in an attempt to destroy Michael Jackson and swindle money from him.
Shame on you!
This man did nothing but help your family in their darkest hour. I know Michael was just like my family. We were all pulled into your woeful stories and shared your family's plight as Gavin fought for his life during his battle with cancer. Gavin, you told me that Michael's love helped cure you of cancer.
Your entire family praised Michael privately to everyone who would listen, yet turned against him so viciously in public. I have remained silent for many years, but I can no longer do so. Right now I struggle to find the words to adequately write this letter, as I am so filled with anger towards you and pain for the Jackson family.
You call yourself Christians. If this is true I call on you, Gavin, and your mother Janet to finally do the right thing for Michael in death that you never did during his days here on earth. You need to completely exonerate Michael's name and legacy from the awful, disgusting claims you made against him.
Claims and allegations that you and I both know are completely false and utterly ridiculous. Whatever your motives at the time to create such accusations are now minute and unimportant.
It is much bigger than you.
We are speaking on this man's legacy; a man who positively touched lives around the world. A man who is arguably the greatest entertainer the world will ever know. Michael is someone who shared in your family's pain; opened his home to you and included you in his very own family. He was a human being who never deserved any of this.
Gavin and Janet, you can change your identity and try to hide from the public scrutiny, but ultimately, you cannot hide from the wrath of God's judgment. This is
the right thing to do. It is the very least you can do for Michael, his children, and
his legacy.
Gavin you are now 19 years old, no longer an impressionable young boy under you mother's guidance, nor are you a pawn in this grand scheme to assassinate Michael's character. I know your heart, and I know that you are capable of doing what is right. Clear Michael's name of your ugly accusations once and for all. You owe it to him. You owe it to his family. And you owe it to God. Let's finally give Michael the ability to completely rest in peace.

Michael Jackson Laid To Rest Today :(
It started to really hit me last night listening to my favorite MJ Classics. Maybe it hadn't sunk in yet but Michael Jackson is really gone, heaven bound, literally. The unthinkable. He sang his songs with so much emotion. You felt all happiness, all pain, all anger or whatever feeling the song called for in his notes. I fell in love with him during a road trip from Chicago to Ohio with my parents. OFF THE WALL was the album. I was a itty bitty thing but I remember listening to that album all the way there and again on our way back and by the time we got home a few days later, I knew the lyrics to the whole album. I mean I knew about the "ABC" era (before my time) but this album was soothing. Every time I hear "I can't help it", I can envision myself in the back seat that night on a highway with my parents jamming. It's so cliche' but you really don't miss a person til they are gone and that is sad. What I've learned is that the media loves to build you up to castigate you and that's just what they did to Michael. I will not go into detail about all that in my blog. No sir! I just want him to Rest In Peace. I want him to have the kind of peace he did not have here on earth. What I desire now is for music to take a turn for the better. I hope all musicians are inspired to make songs that feed the soul. I'm hoping that artist like Usher and Maxwell can bring some heat this year. I need good music!!!!! Not want. NEED!!!!! We lost the GREATEST entertainer of all time and he will never be forgotten. Thank you Michael for all the happiness you brought into my life through your performances and soul touching ballads. We will always love you...
WHEN HE WAS COMING INTO HIS SEXY SIDE...
THE FUN SIDE
SO.... WHEN DID MICHAEL GET YOUR HEART? I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR YOUR STORIES...
