After experiencing T-Pain's superb spinning the previous night, Friday I hop a cab to Fontainebleau Resort for ESPN The Magazine's NEXT event. Despite the cool weather, skin is in on South Beach was it ever not? as sparkling stilettos and lengthy legs vie for attention outside the party. The line seems to snake for miles but I finally make it to the red carpet just as Josh Duhamel flashes a charming smile at the many photogs (no sign of wifey Fergie in site).
The party tent is probably a football field long and is wall-to-wall revelers, packed all the way up to the front stage where dime-diva Keri Hilson is performing. She is one hot mama in a lace bodysuit unzipped almost to the navel and engages the crowd in some casual banter until the sound guys fix the terrible feedback and she can bust out her hits "Turnin' Me On" and "The Way I Are." I spot former 'N Sync-er Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo enjoying the show and a few cocktails each and, as she is wont to do, Audrina Partridge of The Hills talking to a greasy-lookin' dude when Ne-Yo hits the stage. Photos after the jump!
