Creative Media Outlet presents "Sands of Time"
Music Video Shoot
Creative Media Outlet is producing a music video for the emerging artist J Sol. J is a So You Think You Can Dance favorite alumni, turned breakout latin artist, and has now turned his sights to taking over the American Top 40! His new song "Sands of Time" is catchy, sexy and such a fun pop tune that will have the listener humming it many hours later. We brainstromed a visually appealing concept for the video shoot and are shooting in a warehouse and a desert. I cant spoil too much more but let me just say that this isnt a video you will want to miss. I cant wait to share it with you here first! Stay tuned...
Club Posers
I was asked by the always wonderful Ms. Donyelle Wilson to choreograph a piece in a show called "Posers". What Posers is is a fun chance for dancers to LIVE on stage imitating their favorite artists and for choreographers to let their creative juices flow and create a concert like show for their inspirations. I was given the chance to put together a set for Beyonce and let me tell you, it was off the chain! Now remember not the real Beyonce but a sexy friend of mine: Brooke who imitated the famous songstress. It was a wild night full of laughs, drama and full out living!! It was a fabulous piece and if you would like to take a gander simply click on the link below, and watch "Beyonce by Bri". Enjoy!!

Artist Development: DollFace
Let me start off by saying these girls can SANG!!! They are so talented that the first time I heard them sing together as a group... I cried. Its amazing to see such talented, BEAUTIFUL, young artists so dedicated to their craft. Their songs are beyond catchy and these girls are a about to be the next BIG thing!!! I can see them having fabulous long lasting careers as a group or even solo if they wanted. They are all so equally talented at singing, dancing and being hot (lol hey thats important) that if one day any of them wanted to branch out and go solo the world would take them with open arms. Take my word for it! But I LOVE them as a group and hope they stay together for MANY MANY years to come. Hopefully they get signed very soon so the world can start singing along to their pop summer anthems. Get Dollfaced!
Choreography Reel
So its not an event but I figured I should share this reel I made with you. Its just the beginning of my choreography adventures and I thought, might as well tell my readers of whats to come. Watch the video and let me know what you think. Thanks!!
Beyonce"Who Run the World (Girls)"
Music Video Shoot
Imagine this: a bevy of beautiful female dancers in scantly clad genie looking outfits, a bunch of gorgeous male dancers dressed as officers, being on location underneath a bridge in LA, cars turned upside down, caged lions, and Queen Bey in a jaw dropping plunging neckline yellow dress. Well that imagination became reality for yours truly in her newest video and single: "Who Run the World (Girls)". It was an experience to say the least but it was such a wonderful one to be apart of. While I may not see eye to eye on Bey's choices in worship (Im still a little shifty eyed about her and her intentions) but I must say that woman has a work ethic! This is the artist of all artists right now because she works her ass off to be on top. Long 8 hour dance rehearsals, hours of vocal practices and numerous auditions looking for that "perfect" dancer are all in a days work for this diva. She proves why she continues to be ontop throughout the years. Get it Bey!!!
Artist Development: JC Jones
JC Jones is about to be a word wide singing sensation with his catchy pop sound, fun lyrics, fashion forward style and my dance moves! His first single "Let me love you" dropped everywhere April 12th and the music video is sure to follow. Yours truly did the choreography and casting of the video and let me just say, it looks amazing! He has already booked 12 show dates/performances and is even being considered as an opening act for a Lady Gaga show. GREAT things to come for this man, and I couldn't be more excited!

These two lovely ladies are BEYOND talented! Watch out cause they'll chew you up and spit you out... hey they said it not me! They're bringing back girl power anthems and this chick couldnt be happier! Their songs are so catchy I've been singing them since we began rehearsals!

Lil' Kim Shows:
Good by America and hello Tanzania and Amsterdam... With the lovely and talented Lil Kim! We tore the roof off of Africa! Great audience of 15,000 screaming, enthusiatic fans, Lil B (Ray J and Brandi's Godsister) and of course Kim's entourage. We got a beautiful authentic village tour complete with gifts, and stayed at a gorgeous hotel (obvi) and of course gave a performance of a lifetime! Great work, Kim is a doll and big shout out to Michelle Brooke for great choreography. BTW we were suppose to perform at the horrid "Juggalos in the park" or whatever its called, in IL with Tila Tequila. Thank GOD we got there late. Does anyone remember the story of Tila being hit by beer bottles, having poop thrown at her and being chashed by 2,000 crazed ICP fans? Yup... it was that show, but we were out of harms way thank goodness...
So I searched and searched for pics (since my phone I took to Afica is broken I lost all of mine- ugh) this is all I could find lol. Im on the far left in both pictures and please dont judge my face in the 3rd picture hahahahaha, we were deep in conversation!

Sensation Music Video w/ Ilisa Juried:
So this bitch is BOMB! If you dont know who Ilisa Juried is, you better find out. She was a finalist on the hit "Pussycat Dolls Search for: Girlicious". Her voice is so amazing Nick Cannon's producers called her the next red-headed Mariah! Yup, not too many people can say that! Yours truly did the choreography with some AMAZING dancers who killed it, I couldn't be any prouder- love ya toots!
Artist Development for Crystal Harris in the Playboy Mansion:
Thats right ladies and gents, yours truly will be working in the Playboy Mansion! Teaching the lovely, and perfectly engineered "Girls Next Door" how to dance sexy! Hip rolls for EVERYONE! LMFAO. Big shout out to my mentor Donyelle Jones for calling me to work with her on this! Crystal Harris is a beautiful woman with two left feet, but if you know us you know we'll have her seducing the world with her moves in no time. It'll take some work but I have faith, she gorgeous with a fantastic voice and ALOT of dough to back her up. Lucky bitch! LOL. I have yet to see a bevvy of naked chicks with HUGE fake boobs, but give it time...
Bone Rebel Society Clothing Launch:
Lifestyles of the rich and the famous yall! If you're wondering why people need matching shirts and jackets for their dogs let me answer you like this, if you have to ask... you obviously don't live in LA! Granted I do not own a matching shirt (only because the one I got Chester was WAY too small- opps). Anyway, it was filled with MTV producers, executives, directors and some child actors- nothing too crazy. It was fun though!!! Casa Grant kicked ass with the choreography and us dancers rocked it out. Great times, with great people... which reminds me we should totally have a reunion soon!
Pilot with Travis Payne
One Mass Dance!!! Sounds epic? Well it was. It was a fun little flashmob show with a twist. Two teams competed for money for the charity of their choice, complete with celebrity choreographers (hello Travis Payne) and celebrity judges it was an awesome event. For those of you who dont know, Travis Payne was the late, great, Michael Jackson's choreographer. Like I said... epic! It was never picked up but hell it sure was fun!
Movie: Leave it on the Floor
A funny, heart wrenching story about the underground gay club scene. Boys dressed like girls, girls being full the F out- lights, camera, action! Great time with Frank Gatson, can not wait to see the final product!!!! For those of you out there that do not know who he is, get on it! He's best known for being Beyonce's right hand man, letting the girls true fierce bitch come out. Learn it and love it people he got you all to booty bounce (Crazy in Love... dont pretend like you didnt)! The pic is right before the dance number during the "ball".
Americas Best Dance Crew, season 4
Artistry in Motion, causin a commotion!!! What a wonderful freaking experience. I met my sister (Angel Ginn), 4 best friends (Liz Legrande, Larissa Crecco, Ashley Irvine and Dannie Boston) and my mentor (Donyelle Jones). Honestly this was the start of alot of my future success. Donnie Jones really helped mold ALL of us, she whipped us into professional dancing shape! She gave us swagger, and a beautifully unique quality of movement. I love ALL of these girls and would do anything for any of them. They will remain in my life forever, AIM for the sky =)
Pop Goes the World
That Rogue Romeo!!!! We performed the hit "Hitman" to a very lovely and enthusiastic crowd for the LGBT pop phenomenon Pop Goes the World. Dancing for Kevin Stea was pretty damn fun! He is a very artistically inclined and talented man. It was fun watching him work and put things together! Choreography was done by Dmoe Gomez, Kevin Stea and Tony Testa. It was a fun show!!!!!!! I am the short black one in the video (LOL, front on the left in the beginning).
