BET HH Awards Parties: TI, Ludacris, Lil Wayne, Ne-Yo, Zone 4/Interscope, The Brunches and more..

Check out more photos from this party plus the Hip Hop Summit, Zone 4/Interscope’s Pre BET Awards Party, Ne-Yo’s party, Keyshia Cole’s Birthday Party, Ludacris and Sean Garrett’s Sunday Brunches and more under the cut. I guess I would be wrong to cover the event and exclude the parties…

Video Model Summer Walker came in a Run DMC inspired Barack Obama Shirt. Other celebs spotted at this party included Juelz Santana, Maino, Jadakiss, Busta Rhymes, Fabolous, Maino, D. Woods and Raekwon.

That same night Ne-Yo held his Cirque de Soleil Birthday Bash at Mason Murer Fine Arts Center.  Celebrities spotted at this event included Fabolous, The Housewives of Atlanta, Mychael Knigt, Princess, Chingy, Bobby Valentino, Bow Wow, Jermaine Dupri & Lala. The DJ announced that Janet Jackson was in the building but I didn’t see her anywhere. Ne-Yo’s mom Loraine cut all her hair off and she looks really pretty with it. Keri Hilson sang the “Birthday” song…

Sunday played host to a slew of Brunches including Ludacris’s Power Brunch honoring Stephen Hill and Sean Garrett’s Luncheon at the Ellis.  I woke up extra late on Sunday and damn near broke my neck trying to rush to Luda’s luncheon to catch up with Russell Simmon’s.  I walked upstairs at Straits to see Russell, Kevin Lyles, Stephen Hill and Debra Lee sitting all in one place. Cha Ching!

Ludacris and Debra Lee

Sean Garrett’s luncheon was my last stop and the food was BANGING!!! Angel, Mari Marrow, Melyssa Ford, Ed Lover, Frank Ski, Mychael Knight,  and Bangladesh were some of the few folks that stopped through…

Rewind it back to Friday, “Get Your Money Right” Summit on Financial Empowerment with panelists that included Russell Simmons, Yung Joc,  Kenny Burns, Kevin Lyles, Bryan Michael Cox, Shanti Dos, Asher Roth, Gorilla Zoe, Ludacris, V103’s Frank Ski, DJ Gregg Street and more.

they are calling this kid Asher, the new Eminem…

Last but not least is the Zone 4/Interscope/Geffen BET Pre Party at the W Hotel. Celebrities that showed up included Big Boi, Tocarra, Ed Lover, Terrence J, Keri Hilson, Bu (Konvict Music), Angel, Melyssa Ford, Devyne Stevens, Big Kountry King, Michael Eric Dyson and more.  The party was really nice but I started drinking before the red carpet really started so I don’t have many pics except these:

Spinderella, Gyant & Pepa

Proof that I had been drinking… I tried to get a pic of Polow Da Don and Toccara but I couldn’t get the camera right. The end result was her turning around and me catching Polow staring at her booty and saying “damn” under his breath. :) He couldn’t even think straight…
