Celebs Out & About: Alicia Keys, La La Anthony, Kim Kardashian

Alicia Keys was seen taking her son Egypt Dean for a walk in his stroller in NY yesterday. Alicia, 30, was accompanied by a nanny as they took in the sights on Thursday evening in NYC’s SoHo neighborhood.

Last night, La La Anthony attended A Night Of Style & Glamour wedding party to Welcome Newlyweds Kim and Kris Kardashian to New York. The party was paid for by someone named Jason Binn, because one extravagant, over-the-top wedding reception wasn’t enough. The newlyweds plan to live in a $7,000-a-night penthouse apartment in the luxury Gansevoort Hotel on Park Avenue for 3 months, presumably while they film their reality show. La La wore a cute black and white, sheer tuxedo dress shirt with black flare leg slacks. Earlier in the day, she was spotted leaving an office building wearing an impossibly skin tight dress that easily accentuated all her curves.

Ciara, 25, was spotted shopping with a friend on Roberston Blvd. in Beverly Hills Saturday– the day before she attended Lil Wayne’s Record Release Party for “Tha Carter IV” in Los Angeles. My spies tell me that Ciara didn’t arrive alone. It’s good to see she got over her recent split up with NBA star Amar’e Stoudemire, who went back to his baby mama.

Rapster Nicki Minaj, 29, also attended the Lil Wayne Record Release Party last night in Los Angeles. Of course she looked like a fool. The only thing missing is the Barbie box she was packaged in.

Celebs Out & About: La La and Carmelo Anthony; Gabrielle Union, Tyrese, Serena Williams, Snoop Dogg

Lovebirds Carmelo Anthony and LaLa Vasquez-Anthony share an intimate kiss at the premiere party for “LaLa’s Full Court Life” reality series held at The Mark yesterday in Los Angeles, California.

La La’s celestial body was wrapped in a sheer sarong of stars. She looked like every man’s dream. We received an invite to this party (thanks La La!) and we were surprised that the invite noted there would be no red carpet. Maybe party planners realize red carpets are a complete waste of money and a pain in the neck to organize?

Other celebs at the party included tennis star Serena Williams (above), actress Gabrielle Union, singer Tyrese, rapper Snoop Dogg and his wife Shante; actor Hill Harper and more! Something is different about Serena. Did she have a tattoo removed from her chest area?
