Parties, A Premiere, And A Baby

Gossip time....

The Vanity Fair 2006 Svedka Erotica Reading Series was at club Shag yesterday in Hollywood:

What the hell? Why was Naima there lookin like the posterchild for "Who Will Neva Be America's Next Top Model"?

And ya'll know Luda's freaky self was in that piece:

Malinda Williams was there looking fab as usual:

Ummm Pharrell:

Is anybody buying your clothes but you?

Gary Dourdan was lookin like he was goin through some things.

And Essence A. and Gabby shared a fab moment at the party:

I'm lovin Essence's dress and purse.

Kelly R. and Alek Wek attended the SoftSheen event this week:

Definitely 2 fab chicks.

Celebs came out to Mar-A-Lago for the "Rain" afterparty during opening night of the Palm Beach International Film Festival yesterday. It was in West Palm, Florida:

Fab actress Khandi Alexander was there.

Venus, Venus, Venus-

Obviously there are issues in your life right now. What else could explain this pink saran wrap getup you should be sued for wearing? Take that sh*t off!

And slap each member of your hair team while you're in the process.

Back to more fabulous things...

I'm gonna need that shirt Eva is rockin. Hot.

And elsewhere in the country, Complex Magazine's 4th Anniversary Hosted By Mercedes Benz was at Manhattan Classic Car Club yesterday in NYC:

Little Ice, Coco & Ice-T

Ice-T really needs to check his wife before they walk out that house. I'm sure Louis would be just as mad as I am.

Hip hop chick Nina B. was there.

The always sexy Dennis the Menace was too.

Remy Ma never ceases to amaze me:

She manages to make a cute outfit look a crispy hot mess at all times. Shame.

The L.A. pemiere of Akeelah and The Bee was last night at the Motion Picture Academy in Beverly Hills:

Cute. Only Mrs. Bassett could pull off lookin young as hell while standing next to teens.

Brian Hooks was there with his date:

Yep, that's Maxine from Family Matters.

And Lawrence was there with his wife Gina Torres:

Holy Teeth!

And finally, it looks like Ms. Keke is evolving into a true YBF chick:

Keepin it diva I see. Fab.

1. So the beef with Tyson and Wendy Williams continues. They saw each other on the elevator in Trump's World Tower and exchanged some words. Damn shame. Oh, and Tyson apparently showed up to the party with Vanessa Simmons. No more Foxy? Hmmm. Story
2. Paul Wall and his wife Crystal have a new baby boy. He arrived Tuesday and his name is William "Fat" Patrick Slayton. *Sigh* Story
