Fab times were in store--literally--for The Braxton sisters and Mary J. Blige yesterday in New Orleans. The ladies made their way to the Carol's Daughter pop-up store, where TheYBF.com was the designated live-coverage media, and chatted it up with fans.
We've got pics and video from the events, plus pics of Laz Alonso and Boris Kodjoe looking all kinds of good at Essence's All-White Affair, and an Essence.com current live stream from the festivities in case you're missing all the action.....
Tamar.com and Trina Braxton posed it up with Mary at the CD pop-up store yesterday. Tons of fans came by to get autographs with the ladies--and if you're following us on Twitter you got all our insider footage yesterday.
Can't help but love that damn Tamar.
Mary and her denim short shorts and Hermes belt--bringing us right back tot he early 90's--chilled out in the decked out store.
And she pushed out her brand new second fragrance, My Life Blossom.
She made a wild arrival with founder Lisa Price in a second line parade all the way from the New Orleans Convention Center down to the French Quarter pop-up store:
Nice.
But before Mary's parade:
How pretty is Trina!
Gorgeous ladies.
Over at the All-White Affair at Generations Hall, "ATL Housewife" Cynthia Bailey and her hubby Peter got kissy-faced:
Can't wait to see how their marriage is panning out. Because that pre-wedding drama was something else last season.
Boris Kodjoe had all the ladies of course. I guess Nicole decided to stay home....
And Kenny Burns was there to party too.
Heeeey Laz.
And Naturi Naughton made a bright appearance.
Meanwhile, at last night's Coca Cola Old School Dinner at the Hilton, we spotted LisaRaye dancing it up with her next victim:
Alright then....
