This morning Ford and BET kicked off a partnership with pop phenom Chris Brown by hosting an intimate press conference in NYC. SOHH Soulman and I were on the scene to catch all the action. The photographers and journalists in attendance were treated to a breakfast buffet (bagels, muffins, fruit, cheese and coffee) and some light passed hors d'oeuvres.
SOHH Soulman getting his pose on in front of the food.
106 and Park's Terrence J (the emcee for the press conference), BET exec Stephen Hill, and Ford's Crystal Greene posed for pics while we waited for Chris Breezy to arrive.
When Chris finally arrived he had a four legged friend in tow.
The money shot.
The dog had his own agenda.
As part of the partnership, Ford will sponsor Chris' Up Close & Personal Holiday Exclusive tour. Chris will play a role in the promotion of Ford's industry-exclusive, voice activated hands free in-car communications and entertainment system. Try saying that 5 times fast. Lol.
Chris joked that he was still waiting for his free car. The Ford exec got a big laugh out of that one.
After the press conference the press got to get up close and personal with the Ford Sync which allows you to link up your phone, mp3 player and usb drive to your car and activate them by voice.
Be sure to look out for Soulman's post on the event. He has video!

Stephen Hill is a "Down Low" brother notorious for having his underlings do "favors" for him to get to the top.
Is this why Terrence J is there kicking it with him? I don't know for sure, but "TJ" sure does have some suspect quatlities...
But moving on to Chris Broad, er I mean Brown, your new dog isn't making you seem tough kid, neither is the Shemagh around your neck. Does FORD know that you support the Palestinian peoples' struggle? Oh you didn't know either? Then take that shit off!

A shemagh is just a garment it's really not representative of Palestine, Most of the American soldiers in Afghanistan wear shemagh's.

Oh, I didnt realize Stephen Hill was Down-low as someone put it. He is a nice guy period. I knew he & his wife before they left Boston & they are real people. He gave me a Poetic Justice T-shirt because he & his wife said they couldn't leave w/out saying bye as they know what a big JANET JACKSON fan I am.
