Keeping in true PAPER fashion of repping”REAL NEW YORK”, they honored The Rotten Apple’s distinct party culture for the 7th year in a row last night. OSCAR, JOSH MADDEN and I presented for BEST NEW CLUB, WENDY WILLIAMS hosted and MARY J. BLIGE performed! It was star studded and laced with all of the lovely freaks that sparkle New York City’s canvas!

JOSH MADDEN, OSCAR and VASHTIE

For some of my “love me long time” blog readers, you may remember when I had a double nomination in 2008 alongside OSCAR (for 1992) and Q-TIP & RICH MEDINA (for OPEN). OPEN won, although I also think 1992 should have won!

THE OPEN PARTY (Q-TIP, VASHTIE & RICH MEDINA) WINNER OF BEST NEW PARTY AT THE 4TH ANNUAL PAPER NIGHLIFE AWARDS IN 2008

Our friends HUGGY BEAR and VENUS X were nominated for BEST NEW PARTY and I couldn’t have been more happy. Neither of them won, but that doesn’t change the fact that they have thee best new party’s happening! I didn’t get to take many pictures because it was so CRAY (hahaha) in there and most of us presenters were hidden away like the children in “FLOWERS IN THE ATTIC”.
