Condolences to Jennifer Hudson & Family

Dream Girl Oscar winner Jennifer Hudson suffered a great tragedy this past weekend with the loss of her brother and mother who were found dead by gunshot. Her nephew is currently missing in connection with the murders. It is alledged that the singer's sisters husband who is in custody has something to do with the murders & kidnappings. My heart can not begin to understand and make sense of such a horrible senseless crime. I know that Jennifer & family are devastated.

Jennifer Hudson had a whirlwind success stemming from a moment that she stood in line as a contestant for American Idol to playing the troubled starlet in Dreamgirls to awarding winning first time Oscar winner to co-starring in Sex in the City all with in about 3 to 4 years. One might think a situation like this shouldn't be happening to her... However I feel very strong that everything is for a greater purpose. You may not understand it know but watch Jennifer Hudson will rise from this. God Bless her & her family.

Ps: This whole month a lot of the charity events that I've covered had a common theme... Domestic Violence. Domestic violence isn't just about man & woman, boyfriend & girlfriend it also includes crimes against family members. Please take heed to the warning signs:

Insults you in public or in private. Act jealous or possessive. Keep you away from family/friends or make excuses why you can not see them. Punch, hit, push or slap you? Get very angry quckly? Force or pressure you to have sex? Threaten you & your children? Make promises to change or say that they'll never quickly? Is this you or someone you know? Stopping asking yourself these questions & do something about it. Please take action because the person you're involved with my take their frustrations of you out on someone you love and they may not be able to take it the way you do.

I sincerely luv ya ;>

Mr & Ms. Bentley!!! Debut of new Bentley Coupe @ Post oak Motors

Presenting "The Flying Spur Speed" Bentley Coupe

Tonight's honored guest was the new Bently Coupe which debuted exclusively at the Post Oak Motor cars 1539 West Loop South Houston Tx 77027.

I believe that car's have a sex. (Get your mind out of the gutter, yall this is a classy post) Either Male or Female...The Bentley coupe is definatley a diva. The lines of her body are round & curved. Her frame is sleek & sexy. Her hips are slim & trim and ooh yes Baby's got a nice back but no junk in the trunk just room for the golf clubs or the Louis Luggage. Last but not least we can't forget Ms. Bentley's stilleto rims. (I personally think putting flashy rims on this diva would drive her down da' block if you know what I mean. Don't get me wrong it just depends on whether your doing bizness or bidness climbing the corporate ladder of turning corners.) Whomever decides to put her own is getting themselves a classy chick!

starting @ $200k 600 Horse Power All Wheel Drive Handcrafted. Ok enough of that I'm not getting any commisson on the sale of this vehicle. See a Post Oak sales rep for more details

The interior of the Bentley was... I know this is cliche' but... it was like butter. The leather was so ridiculous I wanted to wear it. Ok, Yeah I got it now... the leather interior of this car was like putting on your fav' butta leather jacket...all soft, cozy & comfortable. The electrically interior as well as the inner workings under the hood are all top notch. Whenever driving a vehicle like this just know that even though your behind the wheel, the car actually has the all of the control. All of these luxury's allow one to be a driver & passenger at the same time. The Bentley Coupe is a sight to see for yourself so I suggest you do so at The South Post Oak Bentley Dealership. FYI> I don't know how the people over at The dealership feel about test drives but... should you drive one you may want to leave your 1st born of grandmother as collateral. That way they know you'll return.

A stormy night wasn't enough to keep guest away from the evening's activities. Pic 1> Ms. Carla Burton. I luv the vintage styled umberella...a little rain never stops a Houston fashionista from looking Fab & I adore your tossled top bun very chic. Marcus Allen is sporting the scarf look we are all rockin' this season. However he is wearing this look in the apropriate weather (I''ve seen some people wear a scarf around their neck in the heat of the day & I'm sorry unless there is a cold front blowing threw Houston you just look fab-foolish. Social Privy Definition: Fab-Foolish> When wearing a fabulous trend that starts off right and then makes a left turn. It's too damn hot for all of that scarf swagger.) The "change agent" Tongela looked especially smart in her Burberry skirt, V neck shirt, accompanied with pearl accessories. I give extra style points for the proper posture when holding a wrist styled handbag. Social Privy Tip>Some ladies look as if they are lifting weights instead of holding a handbag. You should hold your bag as if carrying a designer handbag is effortless. In other words wear your handbag & don't let your handbag wear you! Also it's perfectly okay to mix trademark designer's ie. Burberry, Gucci, Fendi etc. because matchy-matchy is wacky! A designer "working" handbag (Social Privy definition> Working Handbag is a designer purse that works well from 9am - 5pm & doesn't turn into a pumpkin at the stroke of midnite) is an investment and can be worn with anything unless its an outrageous couture piece. Im not surprised that she pulls her look off with sophistication being that wardrobe styling is among one of the many hats she wears. Ms. Lady on the right the suede perforated hobo bag is funky!

Wanna Ride?!

Marcus Allen... are we trading in the Benz for a Bentley?

You're looking good behind the wheel of that Rolls Royce Tongela...I see ya powerbroking in the back of the Rolls Royce Dr. Laureen Wishom http://www.masterpiecesolutions.biz/, Opal Gandy & Cornel Wiley http://www.cornelwiley.igniteinc.biz/

The Rolls Royce is an abosolutely remarkable piece of luxurous automotive engineering. The grill of this road warrior was spotless. As crazy as it sounds but... automobile's have face's too...maybe it's the photographer in me but I couldn't sworn I heard this car say CHEESE!!

Pic 1>What a Joy! Joy! You looked fab great job representing the brand.

Have you ever wondered what's the story behind the Rolls Royce emblem. I know I have. My girlfriends "The Get It" girls & I would always joke about "That lady riding on the grill of a Rolls Royce is a badass Bitch...Shut yo mouth! Well here's the scoop..It is the real story of a high-society love affair kept under wraps to avoid any scandal. The lady on the grill is an inspired public display of adoration – in the form of one of the world's most famous symbols – Rolls Royce's flying lady.

Now, the tale is one of the relationship between Lord Montagu of Beaulieu (he was a married man), who commissioned the Rolls Royce figurine, and his secretary Eleanor Thornton. Montagu was so infatuated with "Thorn" that he asked her to model for an emblem to place on the bonnet of his Rolls. Charles Sykes, who was an artist and sculptor, crafted a figure of her in fluttering in robes, pressing a finger to her lips to symbolise the secret of their love. Officially called The Spirit of Ecstasy, but known as The Whisperer by those who were party to the secret affair, the symbol would go on to inspire subsequent designs for Rolls-Royce emblems. Submitted by Mohit Joshi for Top News.

Now thats a love story! But you want to know something interesting...I took a photo of a couple having an intimate conversation in the backseat of the demo Rolls Royce. It was parked in the corner of the lounge. It so dark on the inside I didn't even know that they were inside chatting as I was taking pictures of the outside. I peeked my head inside and they welcomed me into their private party. The energy between the two was very sexy so I asked for a photo opt.

The beautiful woman had an lovely accent. Discerning accents is a hobby of mine so I quickly determined what country she was from. She looked surprised & inquired How did you know? I smiled. I just know. The gentleman also had an accent. He was impeccably dressed with an air of sophisication. The couple agreed to be photographed because they know they looked stunning. They were pleased when they reviewed the shot in my camera. As the gentleman handed me my camera he smiled & looked me dead in the eye and said "I would love a copy of this photo, here's my card." I looked at the card & read the title and thought to myself Shiiiiiiiiit! He then said looking me dead in the eye "I do not wish this photographed to be published." I thought Shiiiiiiitttt!!!! I responded ok and went on my way. I saw the couple one other time that night and then they were gone. The whole scene left me wondering what's up with that and then the old Atlantic Star song cued up in my head "Secret lover's that's what they are..." lol ;>

On another note many years ago a man was so intriqued with a woman that he created a piece of art in her image to put on the front of his other love... Rolls Roycw. Today you see women draped in the most downright tacky @$$ ways across the hood of a car. It all makes you wonder what's down the road in the future. (Sorry I got all Carrie Bradshaw on yall)

Arnetta that is you?!!! What a gentleman! Who says chivalry is dead! Evan Tsaroumis President of http://www.grandprixmotoring.com/ jumping out of the Rolls Royce suicide doors.

Guest were treated to an assortment of Delicious hor dourves & Gratis libations.
