PARTIES: PROJECT RUNWAY’S MYCHAEL KNIGHT CELEBRATES BDAY
Wednesday, April 11, 2007

Atlanta mogul Kenny Burns offers up a toast for Mychael Knight’s birthday on stage
Last night, I was invited to Mychael Knight’s birthday party here in Atlanta, Georgia at the Utopia Lounge, downtown. The event was a lot of fun. Among the guests were Big Boi, Keri Hilson, Janelle Monáe, Jagged Edge and many more. Mychael also premiered some pieces from his upcoming line, which were very nice, and also will be displayed on his new website, launching soon, mychaelknight.com! Make sure you support him, he is doing big things here in Atlanta and in fashion. Oh yeah, it’s Mychael with a ‘y‘ now! More photos for the birthday gathering after the cut…

I thought the spelling of his name was always with a “Y”. I thought it was the media & publications mixing up the spelling of his name.

Myke is a cutie Brian do you know if he has a girl..I don’t think Myke is gay he seems real Posh and Regal he also said he grew up with two sisters so he seems like he would be sensitive and understanding of women..Brian was any of his family there I like his mom I remeber when she came on Progect Runway…
