EVENTS: JERMAINE DUPRI’S PARTY AT CLUB DREAMZ; SHOOTING TAKES PLACE
Saturday, August 2, 2008
Our friends over at Real Talk NY hit up Jermaine Dupri’s party at Club Dreamz on Friday night in Atlanta. Many celebrities were in the house celebrating J.D’s popular Summer Fest weekend. Word is a shoot out went down inside and the celebs starting ducking.
Peep what REAL TALK NY SAID:
Things were crazy, J.D., Usher, Diddy, Nelly, Gabrielle Union, Nia Long, etc. were all in the same section when the shooting occurred… I didn’t actually hear a shot go off but seen people just started ducking. First it started on the right side of V.I.P. then it moved over to the left. Then all the celebs ducked and dipped with the quickness but some couldn’t get off the stage.
I wasn’t sure what the hell happened, the DJ made an announcement it wasn’t a gun shot, and said the speaker or a bottle poppin had made the the noise.
Then out of no where everyone is ducking and scrambling, bodyguards are knocking over people to protect celebs. [READ MORE]
Word is the club was shut down for almost two hours, but no one was arrested for the shooting. Peep more photos when you keep reading..

If you hear guns in the club, blood follows. No blood - no guns.

I am appalled that bodyguards were “knockin’ people down trying to save celebs”. So were the other people lives not as precious as the celebs? I know it’s their jobs to protect the celebs, but you don’t knock others down who also have a right to live just to get to the celebs!!! They need to be moving their azzes just like average joes at the club. That pisses me off that it’s implied the average jo isnt worthy of survival like the celebs! WTF!

Plain GHETTO!
Why is it that black people always feel the need to fight and even kill eachother when they go out?? You rarely (if that) hear about white people shooting eachother up or even fighting at clubs and or parties.
Why is there so much hate in our community? I dont think anyone sees how serious this is. I feel like the rap music perpetuates a lot of it. “Thugs” listen to that music on their way to the club getting amped and incited to violence then all hell breaks lose when they get there. This shit really needs to stop. Its so played.

While its unfortunate that this happened.. 1.) There reports are all foggy. There was shooting OUTSIDE of the club, not in. A speaker popped and that’s what sent folks ducking for cover. If you read Nigel’s report at the link given, he said people were just locked down inside of the club until security could get a handle on things.
ALSO.. NEWSFLASH this is NOT just a “negro” thing. Large congregations of people who are doped up and drunk are going to fight PERIOD. What about when Tommy Lee and Kid Rock or whoever got into a fight at the VMAs? Or Kid Rock beating up some black dude in a restaurant. You are just as bad as WHITE AMERICA who always spins mess like it’s just a color thing. No..
I was at the damn Rock the Bells concert on Sunday and white drunk dudes were fighting for no reason. Just a fact of life… no matter what your race is.

had bow wow, diddy, and usher been shot in tha ass while there i would of chalked this incident up ass someone being a good samaritian serving a good deed for the community

Lol this is typical. I know more than half of yall have had guns go off when u gettin ur party on. Shoot I had two incidents at the parties at my school and its a HWC. And can we please stop painting white people as these mesiahs. They may not have as much random gunshots, but they do have bar fights , and other violent acts. Blacks just have much esiar access to guns (you can thank this wack ass government for that).

People kill me making up excuses for niggas. Saying this is not just a black thing and naming one FIST fight that 2 rednecks got in over a trashy white hoe does not even compare too all the shooting that have taken place in black night clubs over the years.
I live in ATl and the news is reporting that the confusion started with people being overcharged at the door. Atl clubs are notorious for that. At 9pm the price is $20, at 10:30 its $40. Then the let 2 people in every 15mins to create a line to make it seem like the spot is off the chain. Once the celebs start rolling in at midnight The price go up to $100. Now that extra money they made ripping off people will be used to pay off law suits.

@ TOONS
LOL are you serious? You really think that white people don’t act violent in the clubs? There may not be shooting, but every time I see white people on TV in the clubs there’s always girls getting sloopy drunk, hitting on another girl’s boyfriend, and throwing a glass at the girl and then they fight. Same with white males. They’ll get drunk and mad and throw a bottle or start a fight. At hotel parties they throw chairs out the window, bottles up against the wall… white people be acting crazier than black people when they go to clubs/parties. Anyway, this story sounds fake. I don’t believe it. It probably was just a speaker or a bottle pop. People getting worried over nothing.

So….was it really confirmed that there was a shooting…if so…it’s really sad that in this day and age all the violence is still an everyday occurence. I don’t want to pin it down by saying it’s only in our community…because it’s on the news everyday among all races…I’m not talking about just shooting in a club…or bar fights…the methods of violence may vary…but at the end of the day its still violence that is running ramping among our youths and men and women still trying to act hard and hold on to their youth.
But on a brighter note…Gabby, Lisaraye and Nia look beautiful…but what in the sam hill is going on with the Brat and crew…that’s a rough looking bunch….

@27 What the f*@k are you talking about? Do you live under a rock? You either dont read the paper or you’re in plain denile, both of which are ignorant. Two years ago they had to close down 9 clubs in MD because of the rate of homicides in the area, homicides of which mainly blacks were responsible. All the clubs were black clubs, either Go Go or Hip Hop and RnB. They also had to beef up the presence of police from 20 to 50 cops at one club. That many cops at a club is not normal. And this is just in MD. I could get into statistics but that would be redundant. You already know where I’m getting at. There’s a problem and its serious.
@54 Everyone knows that black people aren’t the only ones who fight. I travel, I read and I go out, I’m not dumb. But there is however a higher rate of violence in the black communities. When white people get drunk and fight, it ends there. They dont end up killing eachother over someone accidently stepping on another’s fresh Jordans.
People like you who are in denile and cannot confront the truth and get offended when someone brings it up and says it needs to be addressed are the reason why nothing will ever change.

I guess, it is true that you can take the person out of ghetto, but you can’t take the ghetto out of the person.
Man, it will be a glorious day when black people realizes that they can be much better than that.

Damn that’s unfortunate. Too bad they had to ruin JD’s function, but Hip-hop personalities (a.k.a any black celeb lol) attract a certain type of crowd and of course the media just LOVES it when this type of stuff happens.
Gabrielle and Sanaa need to CHILL lol these chicks are at every party/opening/launch/dinner/media event there is. They’re like the black Parish Hilton and Nicole Richie lol

I THINK IT’S VERY SAD THAT WE CAN’T GO NO WHERE WITHOUT HAVING SOME TYPE OF DRAMA. I’M FROM DC AND WE GOT GOGO CLUBS THAT ALWAYS END UP BEING SHUT DOWN BECAUSE YOUNGINGS..DON’T KNOW HOW TO LET SHYTE GO AND PARTY. THIS IS WHY I DON’T GO TO THESE CELEBRITY PARTIES BECAUSE NIGGRAHS…JUST DONT KNOW HOW TO ACT.
ALSO, I KNOW WHITES CAN ACT CRAZY TOO BUT THEY ARE NOT THE ONES..ALWAYS IN THE NEWS. EVERY TIME I LOOK UP, WE ALWAYS DOING SOMETHING…WE HAVE NO BUSINESS DOING. IT’S TIME TO STAND UP AND TAKE RESPONSIBILTIES FOR OUR ACTION. STOP BRINGING OTHER RACES INTO IT…WHEN WE ARE THE ONES DOING IT.

New law here in GA was passed that permits any registered gun carrier to also carry a concealed weapon without a liscense. That means anyone could have had a gun in that club and could have sued the owners for not letting them in with it. I know it’s crazy but it is true. The law passed within the last 6 weeks.

I work at Dreamz and the shooting did not take place in the club, it took place outside. The mayhem started when people thought there was shooting inside and everyone panicked. Other than that the event was cool and if people would have chilled it would have been jumping til 6am, but the drama ended the party early.
