"Flashing Lights" -Paparazzi Pics (Pt.234)

This will probably be the shortest "Flashing Lights" posting you will EVER see folks! Why? Well here's the deal. For one, I was pressed for time, A lil' tired, and Veranda is but so big! However the pictures I DID take, I thought were worth still posting. Oh, by the way, before I get ahead of myself. These pics were taken at the listening party for Ciara's latest release ("Basic Instinct") that's coming out (or is it out already?). That album is aptly named if you ask me, cause the stuff I heard was pretty "basic" Ciara if you ask me. Nothing too far off her heavily beaten path. Anyways, my "room-mate" aka Room Service partner, Patty Laurent did a fine job getting press coverage and Ciroc/Nuevo sponsorship on such a short notice for a label's throwback listen party event. Oh FYI, That's Elle Mortlock (of SheisNYC.com fame) picture w/ "Ce Ce" below. NOT her dancing stunt double that folks thought & were whispering her to be. LOL.

"Cool It Now..." -Feb.2rd Lupe Fiasco @ Nokia Theater

...You Better slow it down." Was the 1st song that popped in my head when I recently went on-line to peep the ticket prices for Mr. "Cool's" concert tomorrow at the Nokia Theater
(Times Square).
At $165-$200 bucks a ticket...each, homey better have EVERY rapper that guest appeared on his album performing with him, AND invite me backstage to share his left-over "groupie luv!"
Sad thing about it is, I had offered to take my homeless cousin (a HUGE Lupe fan) who's sick from cancer, with the bum leg to the show as a dying wish. (Hope you're reading this Lupe.)
But unfortunately, the kid don't have "Superstar" money like that. Guess you'll have to YouTube it baby, I tried. Seriously though, how and when the (F word) did STANDING ROOM ONLY prices for a small room concert get so (F word) high?
Tell me something...He has Prince as his backing band?
He's gonna bring Obama out and do that Soulja Boy dance?
What?!? Guess I'll wait till he's FREE at Summer Stage like the rest of yall. Not cool man. Not cool at all.
