Forget the Kentucky Derby, celebs partied hard at the Grand Opening of the Tao Beach Club in Las Vegas this weekend. After ‘Pretty Boy’ Floyd Mayweather Jr. beat Oscar De La Hoya everyone went out and got their drank on. I mean look at some of the pics from inside - everyone was tipsy! I don’t blame them though, that shit looked fun.
Okay now! Obviously yall were drinkin too much of that Ace of Spades!

Does Allen Iverson ever take his wife to any of these events?
Just asking…
5.
Yes!!!!!

I wonder how Isa is doing….And I thought Ashanti and Nelly broke up? Publicity stunt? I don’t know…Nelly and Diddy look like homo lover-lovers, and 50 looks anti-social, but trying to fit in with the crowd!
6.
Yes!!!!!
Monday, May 7, 2007 /

Looks like a lot of fun…Biggie and Tupac should be there.
Why does Usher already starting to look OLD since he got engaged?
Quick look I thought Rah Digga was a chubby Kelly Rowland.
I wonder if Lisa Raye is really happy…Looks like she in the pic.

Everyone looks good and the vibe looks real good too except for the pic where 50 is leaning over Diddy to holla at JayZ……..have 50 and Diddy got beef with each other???
Usher needs to check his chick cause she aint got the basics yet…..if you going to a star studded event remember to grease dem knees girl or if that is your problem area put a miniature tub of cocoa butter in your purse girl….remember not cause the room is dark means your can get away with it!!!!………lolololol

Big ups to everybody in the suits looking “grown man”. But Usher kinda looks like an aging drunk uncle. Just my opinion. All this money these cats got and they can’t afford a suit? At least every once in awhile?

fuck wearing a suit this is a ”hip hop party” where’s all the hoes at with that many niggas and no bitches that’s crazy. Diddy and nelly look like str8 faggots.

Forget KY Derby…come on Angel that was so disrespectful lol
But naw the party looked tight…it looks like a pro-black Grammys or something
Yeah Nelly and Diddy pic is screaming “How u doin”…not preserving the sexy at all(*micheal jackson voice*) Can a man just share his bed?

Nelly was just saying what’s up when the picture was snapped. No biggie!!! We know they are not punks. I rather see everyone getting along, with love, having fun INSTEAD OF ACTING LIKE NIG**S!!!!! Then you really would have something to say.
********STOP HATING******

Is AI still married? He’s on my “To Do” list…
29.
SO THAT DIVA
Monday, May 7, 2007 /
This post was great!
3 of my men were there…..Nelly, Hov, and The ‘Answer’.
Nelly….*sighs* talk about eye candy! He and Ashanti look great together, I like her hair.
I really wish 50, Jeezy and A.I. would have dressed a bit more appropriate. Everyone else is dressed to impress and they are so “thugged out looking” which is okay for the most part, but sometimes you just want to see them wearing something different.
I am surprised Jermaine Dupri isnt suited up.
As for the pic w/Diddy & Nelly…it does look awkward but I truly doubt that there is anything “how’u doin’ about Nelly. (Diddy…no comment) I just think Nelly was trying to say something to Diddy and you know it was hella loud in the room…..etc. So NEXT @ the gay rumor!
Whoever asked if AI was still married….yes he is and HELL NO he will NOT EVER bring that hood rat out to any event. She cant hold her liquor and they stay getting into fights in public! He’s embarassed.
Tameka Foster’s face is soooo HIT! UGH! Her damn jaw is stronger then Usher’s! WTF!!! I think I like his scruffy facial hair. As long as he doesnt go “Rick Ross”
Lisa Raye looks lovely but her hubby looks like he’d rather not be there.
Is Lenox Lewis’ wife prego?
OMG is that RAHHHHH DIGGAAAHH!!!She used to be on point back in the days. She still looks “okay” but she looks like she has been through it….a FEW times over! Is it me or did she put on weight? Her bottom half looks a little Sponge Bob SquarePant-ish! LOL
She needs to stop smoking…..her gums are hella black! Eww!
Those Ace of Spades bottles are so pretty!

I THINK THIS IS GREAT OUR BLACK MEN CAN GET TOGETHER AND HAVE A GREAT TIME. STOP HATIN. ONLY THING IS THE GOLD DIGGERS SO USE TO HAVIN THERE WAY WITH THEM. IT’S NOT ALWAYS ABOUT THE BOOTY. WELL MOST OF THE TIME IT IS. ALL THOSE WHO ARE ABLE TO MAINTAIN WITH THERE WIVES OR PARTNERS WITH ALL THE BULLSHIT THAT GOES ON BIG UPS TO THEM. THE GUYS NEED TO HAVE A GREAT TIME TOGETHER. WITHOUT ALWAYS TRYING TO KILL OR DISS EACH OTHER. BIG UP TO THEM. THE WOMAN WILL BE FINE. HAVE A GIRLS NIGHT OUT. LOVE YOU BLACK MEN STAY POSITIVE AND KEEP YOUR HEAD UP YOU LOOK GREAT. THAT’S WHY MOST LOVE YOU AND WANT BE YOU. FROM BLACK FEMALE WITH MUCH LOVE AND MOST OF THE TIME RESPECT. BYE

DAMN! I am NOT feeling that pic of Diddy and Nelly. They look like a couple in love. LOL. Whateva it’s just a pic in the moment.
I would have loved to have been there. Everybody looks like they were having fun and put there egos to the side for once. I love that. Jay looks like he’s really having fun. It’s also great to see him and Fitty greet each other. At the end of the day these are all grown ass men with money. There is SO no need for beef or hostility. Black love AND fun, can’t beat that.

Ooooooh Rah RAh, you look a hot mess. Let me say this, if I’m going somewhere where I know chicks outfit and shoe game is going to be crazy, the men there is straight BALLERS, and I felt I don’t have mines together, I’M NOT GOING! Straight! Digga look swoll like she been drinking too much. She’s def out of place.

Some people look better with a little weight, Jeezy please gain some weight back. Looks like everyone had a good time though. Tameka looks old in the face as usual but definitely not pregnant.

They all look like they had a great time letting there hair down and it was not business just fun. I mean the amount of money and wealth in one place is staggering, they could buy a networks (a couple) and do some serious philanthropic work if they got it together. (sigh) we sure will get together for a party but anything else….
As for many of the posts, a usual we got to diss our own more than praise them, all the usuall suspects on the pastings:
Gay, how you doing, ashy body parts, whos fucking who, she looks like a man, he is fyne, i would fuck (enter name here)…..
yeah we get it, small minds think small things….
that’s why they make millions and are in positions of power while y’all watch at the sidelines…..
respect when respect due…..

Why is Diddy biting his bottom lip?? Looks like he and Jezzy have been that position before!
Why 50 cents got all them crosses on his chest and showing so much love? He musta heard rappers be gettin gunned down in Vegas! Hopefully, the days of rapper killing are over!

Yaaaawwwnnnnn…..
Why is it that everybody has to call out “homo” when 2 black men show any display of affection?
This is a good thing–better to see more of this rather than stupid rivalries and “beef” with one another.
Let’s be thankful no one ended up bullet-ridden and no senseless fighting went down.

Monday, May 7, 2007 /
Damn, I wish I was there…it looks like everyone was having too much fun!!!
Umm whats really good with Diddy and Nelly…thats a lil too close for comfort right there. I hope they were just twisted…b.cuz unfortunately sometimes a pic can say a million words! And from those pics I know two words aren’t coming to mind and those words would be “straight” or “heterosexual”.
I’m not feeling Ashanti’s wig…not cute.
Rah Digga no comment.
Usher’s fiance Tameka gets two thumbs down just b.cuz.
Lisa Raye looks radiant…I love the dress, I would rock it:-)
Allen Iverson needs a new look…sweetie you are 30+ time for an upgrade.
Jigga looks like he is partyin like a rockstar…but I’m still mad at him about the babymama drama, so he gets two thumbs down just b.cuz too lol.

Nelly Nelly Nelly!!! Mmmmm that’s a sexy man! Ashanti is a lucky woman! She’s looking rather nice recently.
Does Lisa Raye ever wear anything but white on the red carpet? That shit is getting old!
Usher’s girl is soooo unattractive to me.
It’s good to see Jay-Z looking like he is actually having fun for a change. He looks ALMOST decent when he smiles.

Looks like fun times had by all. No hating, just all love. Black star power in full effect.
AI & Nelly - sexy mf’s!
I thought Nelly & Ashanti were thru, but you know the old saying…Break-up-to-make-up.
Usher& Tameka-Whatever. She must got the ill na-na I guess.
Zo & his wife Tracey are such a beautiful couple.
Jay looks nice, Bey is on tour so thats probally why she wasn’t there. They aren’t joined at the hip you know. LOL!
Lisa Raye is making 40 the new 20 for real!-Beautiful.
Rah Digga looks cute with a little extra weight on her.

I just noticed that Nelly wasn’t really holding onto Ashanti; that hug was FAKE
Jigga will always have a special place in my heart, he is soooooo cute- (in a babyish way)… just wanna put a smacker on those lips..mmmuahhh!!
Usher is looking effortlessly FAB and i wanna give him props: he’s obviously been around the world, seen diff women but he knows what he wants and he’s got it .
Tameka looks like any normal chick, there’s absolutley nothing wrong with her and i’ll always have respect for her for making Usher be of this world and NOT out of this world.
Diddy- i might not like his reputation but who am i to judge, so i’ll keep my opinions to myself and just point out that he was the best dressed of the click and his last CD was banging H.O.T.
The rest p/ple were ok, dont have anything specific to say about them…. lol;)
