Normally I am not a person to speak upon where I go on weekends and what occurred. However, this past weekend I was at Prive in South Beach and happened to run into Paris Hilton, Britney Spears, Diddy and other B Lister's.
Here are two pictures I took from our view in our VIP section.
Not the typical crowd that hangs around each other. Britney was downing her glasses of vodka like it was water while Paris sipped her vodka tonic drink majority of the night. It is sad to see that Britney was out once again drinking and partying when she's under watch for partying. Maybe the biweekly custody court dates with ex husband Kevin Federline are not having any effect on her party lifestyle. I wonder what will it take for her to eventually want to take care of her children?
On Saturday, Sept. 22 Sound Advise Amphitheater by 11am looked like a concert was about to start any minute. But it was actually fans tailgating before the Brad Paisley concert. Brad Paisley is a 4 time Grammy nominee for 2006 and has had 5 hit singles. Brad is married to the beautiful actress Kimberly Williams-Paisley. Kimberly is known for her leading part as the daughter in the movie Father of the Bride.
Fans stream into the Amphitheater not because it was raining but to arrive on time to see the opening act Taylor Swift. Taylor is a very talented 17 year old with a few platinum records. From the moment Taylor stepped foot on the stage, the crowd went wild and sang along to every one of her songs, not the typical audience response to an opening act.
When Brad was introduced on stage, the fans of all ages cheered so loud, even after he appeared onstage. Playing all the hits from "Alcohol", "Celebrity" and "Little Moments" the crowd never once seemed to be tired from singing and dancing along.
Here is a live concert performance of "When I Get Where I'm Going"
The night ended with everybody leaving the concert singing loudly his lyrics throughout the parking lot. Yet another successful concert at Sound Advice.
E! online reports that Nick Hogan has plead no contest to going double the speed limit. This was a speeding ticket Nick was issued two weeks before his accident where he crashed his Toyota Supra. This morning, a judge ordered Hogan who did not show up to court a $73.50 for not wearing his seatbelt, to pay the maximum $1,000 fine and complete a 12 hour driving course in 90 days.
Time will only tell whether or not Nick Hogan has learned his lesson.
According to TheHollywoodGossip.com and other sources, Jennifer Lopez is expecting twins with husband Mark Anthony. No word on whether or not the rumors are true.
Recently Jennifer Lopez also known as J.Lo was spotted shopping for balloon dresses in Miami Beach's art deco area. Then later on that day, met with friends who had a few drinks while she drank water.
I will obviously keep you posted on what is going on with these A Lister's!
Nick Bollea, son of famous wrestler Hulk Hogan was apparently racing his Toyota Supra in Clearwater Aug. 29 when he crashed. Nick and passenger John Graziano were brought to the local hospital where Nick was released with minor bruises. However, the passenger Graziano was in critical condition. Law enforcement states that Nick Hogan could face charges of gross vehiclar manslaughter, if alcohol, drag racing or excessive speeding was involved.
Only having his license for a little over a year, this was not his first speeding incident or run in with the law. Bollea's first offense he was pulled over doing 115 mph in a 70 mph and went to traffic school for that ticket. His second offense, he got caught doing 57 in a 30 mph! A few weeks later Nick was caught doing 106 in a 70 mph.
Obviously our little Hulkie is not aware of the consequences you face when speeding.
Nick Bollea and his family, have a hit reality show on VH1 called Hogan Knows Best. It stars his father, famous wrestler Hulk Hogan and his family living in Miami. Nick's older sister Brooke is pursuing a singing career. On the show, Nick has gotten into trouble for driving fast in their neighborhood and obsessing about making his car go faster. Obviously, the Bollea parents might want to start taking their son's speeding record seriously because on Sept.10, Nick has a court appearance and could face time.
Here is a video of the accident scene and Hulk Hogan arriving at the accident.
High School Musical is coming to the Bank Atlantic Center Thursday, Sept. 20. Also, there are several shows at the American Airlines in Miami. But don't be fooled, it's High School Musical on ice and not with the original cast. According to Ticketmaster, sales for HSM on ice did not sellout as expected after nude photos of cast member Vanessa Hudgens were released on the internet.
According to TMZ.com, nude photos were released on the Internet of Vanessa Hudgens in early September. Apparently before Hudgens was famous, she sent several scandaleous and nude photos of herself to Nickelodeon star Drake Bell, the star of "Drake and Josh". However, a rep for Drake says that he never received such photos.
Hudgens is the star of the hit television movie High School Musical and recently released her own self titled album which made album charts Top 100. Currently, Hudgens is dating HSM costar Zac Efron.
Disney has not released any information on whether or not Hudgens will be onboard for the making of High School Musical 3.
Disney's new "It Girl" Miley Cyrus (daughter of Billy Ray Cyrus)is selling out concerts around the world. Miley Cyrus has a show on Disney called Hannah Montana. The show is about Miley who is really Hannah Montana, a pop singer but nobody knows because Hannah wears a blonde wig. Kids can relate to the show because Miley is just a normal child but on weekends is a famous singer.
Miley Cyrus is coming to the Bank Atlantic Center in Sunrise. As an au pair to three children, I learned that this was the concert of the year. So I joined the Hannah Montana fan club for $30 a year which allows members to purchase tickets before the public. However, when the fan club tickets went on sale the closest seats were in section 410. Hannah Montana's fanclub sold over 8,500 tickets to fan club members! The Bank Atlantic Center only holds about 17,500 and that includes seats behind the stage.
So for Ms. Hannah Montana she is a lucky girl who's dream has come true.
Since MTV made the bold move to relocate the Video Music Awards to Miami in 2004, ratings dropped. With the hurricanes that hit Miami in 2004 and 2005, MTV lost a lot of celebrities who refused to fly into a hurricane evacuated city. So from 2005 on, MTV is moving the VMA's around like a billaboard on wheels to a new city each year.
For this year in Las Vegas, what better way to gain viewers then by using Britney Spears! In 2007, Britney has gotten a divorce, shaved her head, went to rehab twice and been in the media probably more then when she was selling albums. We can all agree that Ms. Britney Spears has been busy and with all that going on, her album comes out in October.
Well if you happened to save your precious time by walking the dog or washing dishes instead of watching Britney Spears perform, I applaud you! However, since I figured you are dying to know what she wore, I attached a photo of the flattering outfit choice Ms. Britney chose to wear. With Ms. Brit having her hair extension tracks showing the black bra and panties and fishnet stockings gave viewers the impression she was going to dance. However, Britney looked like she walked through her entire dance routine, having celebrities in the audience laughing at her. If Britney wanted media attention, she sure got it but alot of the publicity is negative. A little flash down memory lane of Britney performing at the VMA's in 2001
As for the rest of the VMA's, it was your typical MTV's chosen winners. As a loyal MTV viewer for over ten years, it is very obvious who will be winning an award. MTV will start to show an artist's video more often during the credits of a show ending and the artist's video will air very high on the countdown to their once popular show Total Request Live. Overall, MTV should haved saved their money with the promotion on getting viewers to go to Vegas to attend the award show and just play more music videos!
PS-Okay I couldn't hold back, here is a clip of Britney's 2007 VMA 'performance' Enjoy!!
After attending my first concert in 1998 (it was Britney Spears opening up for *NSYNC-don't laugh!) I loved all the gossip that Britney might be dating Justin Timberlake. Once I was able to apply for internships, I have been involved in all aspects of entertainment. I started interning for Clear Channel Broadcasting (Y100.7) in Miami. I started off as an intern in the programming department,got hired in the promotions department and stayed there for about 2 years. My ambition to learn as much as I could from this industry which brought me to NYC to intern at Seventeen Magazine. While at 17 Magazine, I worked for MTV in NYC. After that summer in NYC, I came back to Florida for college and continued to work as a freelancer for MTV on award show planning. I focused on school and my sorority (Alpha Xi Delta) life for about a year but wanted to get involved in the industry again. So I applied for an internship at Irene Marie Models in South Beach. I was able to find my passion and craving which is celebrity entertainment! So as you can probably tell, I am obsessed with this industry!
