Dollhouse Meets Kelly Price & Attends Somwa Ball For A Cause

April has been one hectic and busy month for DOLLHOUSE! We kicked off the month with the Somwa's Foundation (Survivors Of Mothers With Aid’s) basketball game on April 2, 2011. Ball For A Cause Charity event. The coaches were legendary Shady Kem Prada, and Kym Hampton from the WNBA. The game was held at gauchos gym in the Bronx tip off was at 2pm. The game was AMAZING and consisted of some WNBA players and volunteer players. The basketball game was a great event Kym Hampton’s team won. All the proceeds will go to the Somwa Foundation and Shaq the founder will be taking all her beautiful mothers on a cruise around the city. The cruise is this Sunday on Mother’s day a present to all the deserving mothers.
Now the most epic event took place on Tuesday. Kelly Price came to Fashion 40 202 W 40th St (btw 7th & 8th Ave), beautiful venue, great food and the hostesses are gorgeous. Kelly's 6th studio album was released this Tuesday, May 3 and she came out to help Dollhouse raise money for Aid’s Walk 2011.
Kelly met with press from Essence Magazine , Black Expressions. Good Morning America and our very own LGBTQ 3minds, Ikons Magazine and Nolabelz Magazine. Kelly who was very friendly and all around genuinely enjoying her time with everyone at Fashion40, helped bring so much more joy to an already joyous cause.


We also had the pleasure of hearing some phenomenal poetry from Messiah. He toured with Kelly while he was an Undergraduate at Howard University. He has also done the BET Awards preshow and ShowTime At the Apollo. His poetry on Tuesday night was about Hiv/Aids. Very heartfelt this man is the next big thing! His words are so insightful. If you ever have the chance to support one of his shows please do. You will not be disappointed.
Kelly did a very personal walk through met, hugged and took pictures with everyone that was in attendance. After her walk through she sang "Tired" from her new album. Beautiful song and the lyrics will give anyone in a bad situation the courage to move on. My favorite line has to be "I'm tired of the broken promises". That's a line no matter your age creed gender or background you can relate too. It's just so heartfelt. After she sang her soul out on "Tired" Kelly did personal meet and greets for everyone who brought an album that night.
I have to say she is one of the most humble individuals I have ever met. Kelly helped Dollhouse raise money for Aids Walk and shared her 6th album release with all her family, friends and fans.
To everyone attending #SweetHeart2011 have a safe flight. Everyone who is staying in New York I hope you come out to join #TeamDollhouse and walk with us on May 15th 2011 at 9am for the Aids Walk 2011.
