felt like a mini dream

confession, we missed the performance of bruno mars.  well we heard the last song but we basically missed his entire show.  sad we missed bruno but we made it on time for the party.  after bruno's exit from stage the dj started spinning and the entire arena rose to their feet and began to dance.  it was so crazy and fun but we were all dancing in place and singing allowed as the music played.

up next was drake who entered in a black hooded sweatshirt very mellow and played it cool.  by the the end of his first song he removed the hood from off his head and had an outburst of energy that seemed to fuel the crowd.  i do like several of his songs but i wouldn't say i'm extremely blown away by his talent.  to me he is more of a collaborator than a stand alone artist.  he is one of those artists who needs the support of other big names on his tracks before he'll cut a song.  like he needs other people to fill in the holes where he might otherwise fall short.  not that he's bad at what he does but i just am not satisfied in saying he is extremely talented.  lets just be honest that this actor turned hip hop artist from degrassi in my mind needs to continue proving himself.  now that i've seen him perform i will put it out there that i like him a little more now than i did at the start of the evening.

the main event for me was chris brown and let me tell you that he was worth every minute we waited.  that boy can dance and he seriously worked it out tonight.  i cannot fully express the way he moves and how he seems to magically slide/fly so effortlessly across the stage.  it's like he was born to be an entertainer and let me be the one to tell you that all us ladies in attendance were thoroughly entertained.  he brought every thing he had to offer to the table tonight and he did not disappoint.  since he has too many songs to cover them all in such a limited amount of time he mashed them up into mixes.  this way he was able to hit them all and i thought it was a clever way to please the masses.  during one of his songs he brought a girl up on stage to sing and dance to her.  at this point i thought that alexis was going to pass out and that i'd have to catch her from hitting the floor, luckily she did not faint.
