i wanna be that kid...

so i was home sick yesterday with a nasty cold (no - i'm not better -just better than yesterday - thanks for askin'). i got myself all involved in the "Top Ten Most Blingiest My Super Sweet Sixteen Episodes" countdown.

i know i shouldn't watch these shows. but i can't help it. it's like a car accident. you know you shouldn't look. you don't even really want to look. and your totally ashamed about it because you look anyway - and then you kinda wished you didn't.

anyway. blingiest epsiode number one was totally insane. the kid was the son of l.a. reid and pebbles of hip hop/rap fame. and he just moved to new york and started a new school and basically was throwing this party to show off and make friends and stuff in my opinion. i think he had talked himself up so much that some of the kids really thought he was full of it.

anyway - before i give you the total cost of his party. here's a brief summary.

the invitations were custom made mp3 players with a file of his voice giving the party information. he invited pretty much everyone at the school. so like 400 mp3 players.

the party was held in jay z's club in new york - it was closed down for this part.

puff daddy showed up because he is this kid's god father.

they rented a mega expensive rolls royce at like $4000 an hour for his grand enterance which no one saw because they were all in the club.

they had rap video girl dancers hired to dance in the club.

and kanye west performed.

the overall cost of the party was $1.5 million. the kanye performance alone was $1 million.

now if that doesn't buy him a few untrue friends - nothing will.

in the meantime - i so wish i could go blow $4500 an hour on a car that i sit in for two minutes...
