Pimp My Pirouette: Hip-Hop Infused Ballet
So I was invited to attend the Atlanta Ballet for the red carpet premiere of "BIG" starring Big Boi of Outkast. I couldn't resist this chance and of course Layla k. can never turn down a red carpet appearance. The show was quite interesting and innovative I must say. It really was a full on production with lights flashing, image projection, and ballerinas in huge couturish tu-tus swinging back and forth from the ceiling. I wasn't really sure what to expect, but I was impressed. I am not going to go into details because this is one of those things that you have to see for yourself. On the other hand, I'd have to say that Janelle Monet stole the whole damn show.
I mean, once she left the stage, I was done. I was ready to go. I saw everything that I needed to see. She is a PERFORMER!!!!! If you don't know who she is, you should! She has a cult following in Atlanta and is now signed to Bad Boy.....and to top it all off....she was on the red carpet in a tu-tu. How appropriate :)
Special Thanks to Jen Farris of Z Dennis Media Group for the complimentary invite because I heard that "eerybody and THEY mama" was trying to get in. lol. For more info log on to: http://www.atlantaballet.com/
