Thousands of music lovers went downward to the ESSENCE Music Festival this weekend in New Orleans, Louisiana and we have pics from Day One at the Superdome last night. See Usher, Macy Gray, Fantasia, and Taraji P. Henson hit the leg and partying it up in VIP after the jump....
Jennifer Hudson was one of the primary attractions at the festival inside the Superdomethis year.
Shelooked amazing in a mere black dress that looked very appropriate for release to a "festival."
And see who else took the stage:
Fantasia was there on the principal stage.and I live we are all look at her stand and asking ourselves, "Is she.or isn't she?"
Macy Gray hit the point with a bedazzled microphone.
Boyz IIMen brought their 3-part harmony to the stage.
Keshia Knight Pulliam was there looking fab.
Actress and singer Naturi Naughton made the rounds too.
And Boris Kodjoe and Garcelle Beauvais posed together.
Miguel rocked one of the super lounges. I'm trying to flesh out what's going on with those pants though. Actually this whole outfit in general.
Charlie Wilson hit the mainstage and brought out that 80s soul and R&B flavor.
Soul singerDwele performed.
Doug E. Fresh was spotted at the Fest too.
Did you recognize that Dru Hill was OFFICIALLY back together?
Thought they gave that up later that reality show last year. Guess not. Hey Sisqo, Nokio,Tao, Jazz!
LeToya Luckett made the rounds with SlimThug. Yeah-seems like they actually are back together. We tweeted a pic of these two last night chillin' in the VIP Belve Lounge backstage. Very interesting....
Mathew Knowles posed withEric Benet. I question if he bumped into LeToya? And how THAT convo went...
Hosea Chanchez and his on-screen girlfriend Tika Sumpter were spotted around the Dome.
The very sexyTank rocked out in one of the lounges.
I don'tknow if she sang, danced or did a monologue but Taraji P. Henson surely kept the crowd entertained in the McCafe.
And for the star of last night:
Mr. Entertainmentwas there.
His charm was to "OMG" and he flew above the crew on to the stage riding on this neon green lit plank. Craziness.
Is that a bulge impression or just our eyes playing tricks on us? I see Mr. Raymond in a Completely new light now. Yes indeedy....
Usher pretty much killed the present last night.
Fab times.
