Just....damn. Reggie was looking ridiculously yummy on this carpet. The things I would let this man do....
*Sigh* He's also the runner up for the YBF Best Dressed Male of the night. If he would have rocked the orange sweater instead that he rocked when he presented...he would have taken home the win.
Beyonce looked hot in a dress she couldn't walk in:
And y'all know Kelly and Michelle weren't far:
I'll save my comments about Kelly's "performance" for the next post....
And Ne-Yo looked pretty dapper too. Even though every dude on the red carpet was rocking white and/or cream.
Jordin Sparks
Now y'all know I think E-V-E is one of the most fab chicks in the game right now...but I can't say I was feeling this Dolce and Gabbana dress on her with the platinum hair:
Al Sharpton's perm was on and poppin':
But the heat might cause some frizzies. So y'all know he took it inside quickly. And host Monique rocked a long cheetah print dress.
J-Hud was there:
Fab. And she says she's not engaged yet.
And I never thought I'd say it....
Rih rocked one of the most fab dresses of the night:
I have a thing for white, strapless, wedding gownish dresses. Loves it. And paired with simple makeup but still a little edge with the black nail polish...it all works.
I'm breaking down and giving her YBF's Best Dressed Female of the Night on the red carpet. There were some sleeper hits during the performances though.
The whole Ross crew was there to see Mama Diana receive the Lifetime Achievement Award.
I am soooooo mad at Guy Torry:
Is this really a short set suit he's rockin'? WTF?!
YBF chick Lauren London was there looking fabulous:
So did Melyssa Ford:
She and B are about to singlehandedly make that big metallic belt a must have for the summer.
Ummm Terry Crews:
Bobby Jones probably damn near had a stroke when 50 took the stage talking about pulling a chick's panties to the side right after Yolanda and Patti and 'em went to church during the tribute to Gerald.
CiCi looked her usual. And was rocking some nice Alexander McQueen shoes.
LaToya showed up anyway after she got snubbed with no nods.
Tanika Ray just never....quite...gets it right. I love the shoes though.
Bone Bone Bone Bone.
Kim Coles partook in the cheetah trend.
Rockmond Dunbar
Robin Thicke brought his cute swagger to the red carpet.
Can we pause for a second....
Now Chandra Wilson is purposely leaving her significant other's name out of the press. But in last week's Life and Style she had pics with her and him doing their new Folgers coffee commercial. She also seems hesitant to call him her husband. I swear to y'all the only reason why I didn't post those foolywang pics because I like her entirely too much. But enough is enough. And it pains me to post this ish....but maybe her secrecy is because there's something he just hasn't told her yet. Like perhaps a conference call happened amongst him, Al Reynold's, and Terry McMillan's ex. I'm just sayin'......
Terrance was rockin' the Sean John 3 piece suit and it looked hot. I know it was hot as hell but he still made it look cool. Tailored and cut to perfection. He wins my YBF Best Dressed Male of the night...and not just because he's my Frat.
Julissa and Larry Johnson got their cute couple on...kinda.
Ms. Keys looked stunning in a grecian style Monique Lhuillier dress:
And she's still with Kerry. She's also my runner up pick for YBF Best Dressed Female of the night. Her new album As I Am is hitting stores in October and the first single will be out in August.
Lil Mama looked less Wayans-ish.
Tracee's dress was fab.
Eva Pigford looked fabulous:
Common and John Singleton did the carpet too.
I actually liked Toccara's dress...but it couldn't stay on during the show thanks to a wardrobe malfunction.
And during the 106 and Park pre-show:
The level of suspect is out of control for Mr. Lloyd.
As if his lavender extremely fitted long baby v-neck tee wasn't enough...dude was rockin' an extra Chi'd out possible lacefront do. I just don't find a damn thing sexy about any of it.
And once again Pretty Ricky bombarded somebody's stage with the foolywang material that is gold lame':
These dudes rocked ascots and smoking jackets with side striped pants....in 105 degree weather that folks with no clothes on are sweating in. Stop playin' Pretty Ricky.
Stay tuned for the show and afterparty pics.....
