My photographer J-Mo was on hand to get some pics of Ms. Nicki Minaj performing @ Club Traxx for Black Gay Pride Week in ATL this past Saturday night.
He said her performance was as expected, there was definitely Pandemonium in the audience once she got on stage. It was a stampede towards the stage…barricades knocked down and all.
Nicki of course did her usual by bringing up a couple of fans on stage to sign their shirts…or was it their boobs?

You know The Buzz In The City was in the house for the exclusive Atlanta “TAKERS” PREMIERE this past Wednesday night @ Atlantic Station Regal Theaters. The red carpet was hot as hell and crowded, but it was all worth it to see T.I., FIIIINNNNEEEEEEEE ASS MICHAEL EALY, Paul Walker [such a cutie with his blue eyes], Will Packer, and a host of celebs who came out to show support. There was an excitement and huge anticipation for this film by everyone there, and we were among the few select media who got the chance to actually sit for the screening, and all I gotta say is WOW!!! TAKERS was the bomb.com, and is worth your money to go support a great cast, and a great film. Shoutout to Chris Brown for doing the damn thang on his stunts, and Will Packer for giving us a great combination, the best looking cast and action packed excitement. Tip, we salute you and the Grand Hustle fam on putting on your producer hat for such a great project. JOB WELL DONE!!

Usher’s New Look Foundation hosted the first annual World Leadership Awards this past Friday night at the Cobb Energy Performing Arts Center in Atlanta. Those that came to support were Justin Bieber, Ciara and Usher, who performed, and former President Bill Clinton was there to receive the Service Legacy Award. Justin Bieber was also honored with the Global Youth Leader Award.
The New Look Foundation was founded by Usher. It’s a non-profit that aims to motivate and mobilize young people around the country to become corporate and community leaders.
This seems to be the topic of discussion, especially recently with Tameka Foster, ex wife of Usher Raymond. She even takes time to beef on Twitter with V-103′s Elle Duncan, because Elle made a joke about using “RAYMOND”…even though she’s not married to Usher either…[see clip below] Share and Enjoy:
