4th Annual PAPER Magazine Nightlife Awards

The Retro Kids Isis King Solange

If it felt a little muggy on Sunday night it was because the planet got a little dose of global warning thanks to the party goers at Paper Magazine’s 4th Annual Nightlife Awards. Word to the wise: your sweet ass better run for cover when fever and tang collide.

Solange and her glowstick worthy outfits were no match for tangmasters such as Isis [from the current cycle America's Next Top Model] and Amanda Leopore. Factor in the Civil War proper phenomenon that is The James Gang and that bitch was virtually unnoticeable. And I didn’t even bring the Retro Kids into the equation.

Snapped: Zoe Kravitz At The mtvU Woodie Awards

Zoe Kravitz Riley Keough + Zoe Kravitz Zoe Kravitz

I’m glad Zoe Kravitz decided to get rid of that bad emo haircut and borrow some of Angela Simmons’ old weave because that whole “I’m deep, I write poetry on MySpace and cut myself” look doesn’t do a thing for me.

Lenny’s girl attends the 2008 mtvU Woodie Awards with her friend Riley Keough on Wednesday night. Excitement personified, I know. Next!

Boy, You A Little Country

Lil Wayne + Kid Rock

Some white people are having an interesting month, no? First “that one” gets elected as our next president then one of BET’s fraggles  shows up at the Country Music Awards to perform with Kid Rock. I bet there was plenty of “Can’t we just have something for ourselves?” textual healing going during this performance.

Style Jury: Trina

Trina has been busy laying up under boyfriend Kenyon Martin’s nut sack so we haven’t seen her much lately. Last month she performed at the Lions club an event advertised as an All Sexy Party but judging from the tragic souls who filled venue it looked more like a casting call for Plies’ bust it baby calendar.

Decked out in the finest costume jewelry the Carol City Flea Mart has to offer, the Diamonique princess performed for her dedicated dusty, sleuth foot fans. I see someone is trying to give Victoria Beckham a run for her money in the head gear department. Girl, that’s some couture hoe shit! What’s your verdict on Trina’s outfit?

You Sent It: Crackhead Days of Yore

Halle Berry Halle + Nahla Halle Berry

Halle Berry, in Canada shooting her latest movie, was seen with her daughter. Here’s the description from Just Jared: “Halle is starring and co-producing the psychological drama, which follows a young woman struggling with multiple personality disorder. Halle, who plays both Frankie and Alice, is torn between who she is and a racist Caucasian alter-personality that preys upon her mind.”

Style Jury: Beyonce

Solange has been leaving her glow sticks unattended I see.

Beyonce flaunted her cyborg hand at the MTV Europe Awards and the kids loved it! I expect to see many more homemade attempts by the juicy booty crowd in the days to come. You already know what type of weeekend its going to be at the club.

But I digress. What’s your verdict on Sasha’s red carpet + performance numbers? More flicks of that *McCain points* other one under the hood.

Girl, You So Everyday People

Since I’m a grown ass woman I had no idea that Raven Symone [another grown ass woman] had a YouTube channel but you learn something new everyday. Oddly enough the shit is pretty entertaining. In a I don’t have anything else better to watch while I eat lunch at my desk sort of way but you know, a bitch can’t have it all.

I won’t knock her for shaving the side of her hair off because I too have had an “I want To be Different” moment while sitting in the salon chair too but I didn’t go run and tell my YouTube subscribers about the shit. But that’s just me.

Still, I will always defend her wonky behavior because she was such a sweetheart when I met her back in the day. I just . . . wonder about the child at times. More goodies from Raven under the jump.

Sasha played dress up in some of Agnes’ old rags for the November issue of Gotham magazine. Ohhh la la! The different-ness is killing me so I am going to pass the dutchie to Concrete Loop for more flicks! Article excerpts after the jump.
