Ah, 'tis the life to be an Event Planner. Due to these economic times I don't get to do big events all the time anymore, so when I DO get to jump in and get crack-a-lackin', oh, I don't do it half arsed. No sir.
Hottiefest is this Saturday, and I've been doing this yearly since 2002. Man, it is a great event but like I mentioned above, the ecnomic times have brought it from HUGE glory at the beautiful Roostertail (where sponsors were Maxim Magazine, and I had co-hosts like Larissa Meeks from 'Average Joe: Hawaii' and DJs like Ozzy Osbourne's son DJ Louis) to a tailored down size but still with ALL the fun now at the Beach Grill. All the celebs are local and it's more intimate. It's awes.
It's Eastside partiers meet Lake St Clair boaters meet Mt Clemens rockers this year, and if the responses that I've been getting about the night come to fruition, well, expect another year of awesome sassy, sexy, hot summer nightlife fun. My favorite part I've always had is the pleasure of handling the event's 'Official Hotties'. Myself and John Schoenith (originator and all around awesome dude) & a couple peeps pick 20 of the areas hottest and socialable chicks we know to add to the ambiance. This year my girls are outfitted by local clothier Crime Shit, bringing a edgier look to the ladies. They will be holding court in the uber VIP area in the middle of the indoor-outdoor action on The Zman's boat, posing, hostessing, and showing you how you should be doing Hottiefest.
I'm going to miss Barbie & Jestin and their crew from The Playhouse Dolls (now Visual Talent) and Jeff Blackburn (of Empire 7), but their memory and images are etched in videos and pictures from years past. <3
Thank you, John, for letting me be a big part of this sick summer event. I love it, appreciate you, and let's keep this party going forever. At least that's my goal.
