"This Is It"

Posted on 11:08 AM by JasmineH | 0 comments

Last weekend, October 31, 2009, I saw “This Is It”. “This Is It” is a film/documentary of Michael Jackson and his preparation for his last tour he would ever do. Since the announcement of the film, I was extremely excited to see it. I knew it would be amazing viewing such talent that Michael has. His music has affected the world to the highest degree ever. People of all ages enjoy his music daily. His death has made his music even more popular. To hear or type about his death continues to feel surreal to me. Because of his death, I now have a greater appreciation for his work. “This Is It” showed me how hard Michael worked on his craft. MJ was an extremely hard worker. Michael’s hard work combined with his talent created a legend. Throughout the film, you could tell he put his heart into every aspect of the tour. Every song that he rehearsed was perfectly crafted. Watching Michael on stage gave me chills. Not one time did he seem tired or unenthused. His dance routines looked better than ever. Watching him dance gave me chills. I had never seen such perfection in my life. The background music, lights, dancers, and singers were perfect. MJ’s background dancer’s respect for him was out of this world. They honored Michael and appreciated his humbleness and sensitivity he showed towards them. He was their idol. The lights showcased Michael and allowed him to shine even more. You could tell his background singers worked diligently to somewhat perfect their voice for Michael’s liking. The background music was simply amazing. It was evident that every musician on the tour put their heart into their instrument. It was as if they had to strive to reach MJ’s level and practiced until they did. Of course everything did not always meet Michael’s expectations. When problems did occur, he made it very clear what he wanted. Immediately the problem was solved and he moved on. Never once did he disrespect anyone in the film. He always showed his appreciation for everyone’s work and praised them for working hard. Michael would always echo “I love you”. If this tour had occurred, it would have been the most amazing event ever. It’s sad his death brought out the much deserved respect he deserved. Maybe now we can acknowledge great talent and honor extraordinary individuals while they are still breathing.

Posted on 11:11 AM by JasmineH | 0 comments

on october 19, 2009 (i will never forget this day) i met Trey Songz. one of the happiest days of my life (i am so serious!). i attended the BET 106 & Park Tour.



the first act was Sean Garrett. here's a picture of him. (nice body too lol!) i loved his song "Up In My Heart". his dancers were great too! picture below:



...next up was Day 26. i've been a fan of them since the beginning. it was nice to actually see them in person. a picture of (most of) them is below lol:



...after day 26 was Mario. before the concert began, Mario ran right pass me leaving the HOBs for a quick run i guess? lol ...anyways i didn't know it was him! shame, shame i KNOW! but n-e-ways, i loved his performance and classic songs from "back in the day" lol...picture below:



...then it was a surprise. oh how i love surprises lol :) "birthday sex" started blasting on the speakers ...lo and behold, Jeremih took stage with his cousin Willie from Day 26. ...crowd went BANANAS! he also performed "I'm A Star". i really enjoyed his performance. of course...another picture:



BUT THEN...it was the event of thee NIGHT! Trey Songz took stage! my oh my, this man is gorgeous. from his voice to his style...just everything about him gives me chills. he sang every song with passion and i loved it! ...but something was going on backstage and they wanted to cut his time short. Trey wasn't having it, though. he said, and i quote, "f*ck them! i love Chicago!" ...and blew kisses to the entire audience. looooooove Trey! pictures of him on stage below:



after "Yo Side" was over...my Trey day had not yet ended :) meet & greet time! after maneuvering through the SOLD OUT crowd, i finally made my way back to the merchandise table to find the other girls w/meet & greet passes! :) we waited while @msmerry21 called the contact to find out where Trey was. ...finally they led us to the destination and Trey appeared. when i saw him, i IMMEDIATELY ran over to him and hugged him! i don't even remember moving my feet...it was like an automatic reaction :) lol! i then stood in line and took a picture with him and he hugged me afterwards :)) i was soo happy. he said he remembered me from when he posted me in his blog in August :)) i was even more happy. i was sitting on cloud 9 lol! picture of me and Trey Songz is below:



last but CERTAINLY not least, i met Samiyyah and Najja! they sang backup for Trey during the tour and they KILLED it! they were soo nice...look out for them in the near, near future! pictures of them and I below:




ALL in ALL a GREAT day! i had sooooooooo much fun and would do it all over again in a milli-second. haha.
