And the honor goes to...

On Saturday evening, I attended the BET Honors Awards at the Warner Theater here in Washington. It was quite a celebration honoring icons such as Judith Jamison, B. Smith, and Mary J. Blige as well as icon on the rise, Tyler Perry. I am still getting over feeling starstruck. It's not every day that I get to chat personally with legends. Judith conquering the world of dance, B. Smith as an ever-expanding entrepreneur, Mary as the high priestess of hip-hop/R&B, and Tyler as a cinematic mogul-- you really can't get any better than that.
