Hotlanta and her Sloppy Seconds

After weeks of my friends bragging about a new intimate French style lounge called Royal, I decided to check it out. Hidden in between the streets of Castleberry Hill, this intimate hotspot is seriously stirring up a cult sensation. With it’s modish and stylish Sloppy Seconds every second Saturday, my best friend and I, dressed as if we just stepped out from the pages of Vogue, walked into a very packed, very sexy dance room. We strutted up to the bar, ordered 2 martinis, and watched as fashionable socialites, ghetto superstars, and urban, grunge trendsetters all mingled with one another. It's the first time I think I have ever seen High fashion collide with street wear under one electro-house/ crunk rap party.


In a city supposedly known for diversity, it is disturbingly rare to see different cultures and colors partying together. Morgan and I watched 2 Abercrombie men look-alikes mingle with men pimping in head to toe bling (with matching grill). I witnessed a very girly girl wearing an extremely small outfit hit on an André Benjamin wannabe. And my best friend befriended an indi chick whose whole body resembled a canvas covered with tattoos and piercings. Overall the evening was super fun. Royal has stolen the crown for the hottest night club…for the current minute anyway. It’s about time Atlanta stepped up to the plate. Now, can she keep hitting home runs? I suppose after a couple more weekend reviews, I'll have my answer.

Definitly check Royal out.

Next week's Hotlanta adventure-

M Lounge.

LOVES!

I would make such a fun rich person

Because I am so broke these days, I like to pass the time by imagining what I would do if I won the lottery. This past weekend, a man living in South Bend, IN won $350 million playing the Powerball. If I had won, this is how I would have spent my winnings.

Mindless of taxes, I would split the money in half and give it to charity. I know so many people don’t believe me (Chrissy!) but I really would. Having all that money and not using any of it for a better cause would be extremely wrong. I’d probably give $50 million to a children with cancer foundation, $25 million to a breast cancer foundation, and $25m to an AIDS foundation. Then I would take the rest of the 75m and give it both to Angelina Joli’s foundation (WHO, an organization to treat children in Ethiopia who have been orphaned by AIDS and are HIV positive), and to an Oprah charity. Yes, the last 2 is secretly a ploy to meet both of them, but since I’m giving to a greater cause, it’s ok.


I love, love love Angelina! Say what you will about her but the truth of the matter is she does A LOT of good work in this world. She tries to make the world a better place and anyone who does that is amazing in my book. I also would hold off in giving Oprah the money until Christmas. Giving her 37.5 million would definitely ensure a ticket to her show which means I would score free audience gifts. Chrissy pointed out that if I was rich I could just buy all the items Oprah brags about, but who wants to buy the items when you get them for free?

Next, I would take the rest of the $150 m and split it 4 ways. I’d give $37.5m to my mother, my brother, and my sister.

I would take $4m and buy a NYC brownstone overlooking Central Park,















a $2-4 million Italian/Spanish style looking home in Atlanta and LA






a $4 million Paris apartment, and a $4 million Rome apartment.





I would buy myself 3 cars
An Audi r8




This beamer













And this maserati







I would buy a pug,














or two














I would go on a $1 million Neiman Marcus shopping spree and buy all things Chanel





I would give NYU $2 million and ensure a place in their graduate program. I would love to achieve a NYU masters in marketing/advertising.







I would show love to my 3 girls, Chrissy, Morgan, and Kim. I would give them each $1 million, but under the table so they didn’t have to pay for taxes. I see how hard each one of them works and they all have been extremely good to me. What’s the point in having money if you can’t share it with the ones you love?

I would also give $1 million to my Mr. Big. He’s already a millionaire but he also has been so good to me so it would be the right thing to do.

Lastly, me and my girls would travel to Bali,







Fiji,




Europe, and Vegas.











I would put the rest into a Fidelity money market and enjoy the next 2 years living in NYC as a student, NOT WORKING.

If only dreams could come true.
Back to my coporate America job...


Loves!

Did someone say lovely?

With studio week fast approaching, I can pretty much say goodbye to sleep for the next 2 weeks. Last night I stayed up until 4am and then took a 2 hour nap. Needless to say this morning was so rough not even Starbucks could help. As I was driving into work with half-opened eyes, Tempted by the Fruit came on the radio. Instantly, flashes of a very old Gap commercial swam through my head. As soon as I got to my desk, I went straight to YouTube. Funny how one very good looking Italian man can wake me right up. Now why cant there be more men that look like him? I think I am in love.

A little side note: why dont more actresses date models like Raoul? Actresses have a catalogue of men to choose from and yet a majority seem to complain they cant find anyone to date. Jennifer Anniston is on the cover of US claiming she is all alone and lonely. Hello! Roul is single! She needs to tell her agent to hook it up. Dear God, I should really start doing PR of some sort.
