Bashment Review: The Pink and White Affair

Many attendees got the theme of the dance just right while there were some fashion mishaps in the crowd as well. I am more than pleased with the range of fashion do’s amongst the crowd. Big ups to the cutie in the white suit with the hot pink bustier, the ultra bashy hottie in the all lace jumpsuit with the hood and girly rocking the white trench with matching culottes. The try again next time award goes to anyone who has officially killed the layered look that I USED to love for this season. Rest in peace, pants over legwarmers, over socks, over shoes, over whatever – you will be missed.

Representing the pink and white were The Untouchable Crew, The Blaze’ Crew, The Bashment Crew, The Designing Women, and a blast from the past, yes, I see them with my own two eyes – a cameo appearance from the Wow Wow Crew (although they didn’t the memo about the pink and white, I was still glad to see them out). Other Dancehall Celebrities in the crowd included KC Platinum, Eye, not one to disappoint in a fab deconstructed pink blazer ensemble – (and Yes, I think we DID see him with a date!!!!), Mr. Can’t- Nobody-Do-It-Like-Me Blacka, Ms. Tammy, Onnie, and a few others dancehall regs were sprinkled throughout the crowd.

The great tunes did not stop until well after 4 in the morning as the crowd prepares for the next theme inspired event – A Blazer Affair, Saturday, March 10th, you know the place – see you there! Jackets Required!

Johnny Ouch Birthday Bash - Will He or won't He? (We hope we're wrong!)


SHAMELESS PROMOTER..XTRA! XTRA! READ ALL 'BOUT IT!


Now, I know money is the root of all evil and GREED is one of the seven DEADLY sins, but when I saw a FLYER for the one, the only JOHNNY OUCH! of the infamous "GREEN TEAM". Yes - JOHNNY OUCH, BUZZROCK partner & promoter (we miss those Greggory Issacs shows...damn...)and probably one of the most famous JAMAICAN Dancehall Celebrities in Cleveland...


My initial reaction was a feeling a bless and reminsence of the good ole days and then, I thought to myself, "Whaaat?" Everybody knows that Mr. Ouch is ... shall we say, 'not available for comment', so having said that, what SHAMELESS promoter has the audacity to rile our emotions and have the dancehall community up preparing and waiting like kiddies waiting on Santa Claus. All and all, I hope I am wrong, but - damn!


Yes, yardies, we all know that the dancehall has not been the same since Ouch has been ...shall we say, 'not available for comment'. So you, whoever you are you are a SHAMELESS PROMOTER and would just like to say "be careful how you walk, you never know whose toes your stepping on, nor where you might slip!"


Bless,


Tattletale

You go! (Girls....) Venus and Serena give back to the Jamacian Community


QUEENS OF the courts Serena and Venus Williams will touch down in Jamaica for a whistle-stop series of tennis clinics and social engagements in Kingston and Montego Bay.

The sisters, who have both held the world No. 1 women's ranking, will kick off their visit with a clinic for inner-city youth on Monday afternoon at the Jamaica Pegasus hotel in New Kingston.
The clinic will be followed by a VIP cocktail reception at the same venue starting at 7:00 p.m.
On Tuesday, their stacked
itinerary is expected to include a courtesy call on the Prime Minister, Portia Simpson Miller, a special luncheon at Devon House and then a visit to The Gleaner's Children's Own Spelling Bee finals at the hotel.


Later in the day, they will fly to Montego Bay where they will host a special "bounce" for children, executives and sponsors at the Half Moon Hotel at 8:00 p.m. which will complete their busy schedule.


Younger sibling Serena, 25, is riding high after winning last month's first grand slam of the year, the Australian Open, and boosting her world ranking from 81 to 14. In a lopsided final, Serena defeated No. 1 seed Maria Sharapova 6-1, 6-2 in just more than an hour for her eighth grand slam crown.


Venus, 26, did not make the trip Down Under due to a recurring left wrist injury which has seen her world ranking drop to 50. Venus has five grand slam titles to her name including an epic 4-6, 7-6 (4), 9-7 victory over fellow American Lindsay Davenport in the 2005 Wimbledon final which lasted two hours and 45 minutes - a Wimbledon women's final record.
