Happy Birthday Kimora "Mommy Fabulous" Lee Simmons Hounsou

 I would like to say Happy Birthday to my bff in my head, the fabulous Kimora Lee Simmons Hounsou. Kimora is the mother of three beautiful children and is often referred to as "Mommy Fabulous" by her equally fabulous daughters Ming and Aoki Lee Simmons. Kimora, we hope you enjoy your day as we're sure you will!

How amazing is this!

Easter 2011 with the Obama's

Apparently the White House is the place to be for Easter, the annual Easter egg roll took place this past Sunday at the White House. It appeared to be a star studded event complete with a performance from Willow Smith. The children also enjoyed story time with the Obama's. Sasha and Malia took turns reading Where the Wild Things Are and Mr. & Mrs. Obama read Chicka Chicka Boom Boom.

There were literally thousands of kids in attendance rolling eggs and having a great time with the Obama family. Also in attendance was the Simmons family including Russell. It still amazes me that the President is African American.

KLS Gold Winners

If you all remember at the end of October I posted a blog about Kimora Lee Simmons looking for "real women" to be the face of her new KLS Gold cosmetic line. Thousands of ladies submitted their pictures in hopes of winning this exciting opportunity and out of those Kimora selected 8 beautiful women. I'm excited because I personally know one of the young ladies selected. I helped her get into modeling and now she's modeling for Kimora. Her name is Maria, she's a gorgeous and smart young lady. I'm so proud of you Maria! Actually there were two women from Indiana selected. The second in Tamika. I don't know her personally but one of my good friends knows her. Congrats to both of the ladies and all of the other winners! How exciting.

Aoki Lee Simmons' Fashion Show Birthday Party

Mini Mogul Aoki Lee Simmons daughter of Kimora Lee Simmons Honsou and Russel Simmons celebrated her 8th birthday in style at Modani in West Hollywood. Much like her mother Aoki Lee is a little fashionista so I expected her to have a fabulous birthday party.

In true Simmons fashion Aoki Lee decided to have a fashion show complete with a runway hair stylist and an MUA for her birthday. It was a black and white Chanel themed party (check out the cake). Aoki Lee and her big sister Ming Lee love to give back and help others, Kimora is raising them well. Not only was this fashion show for her birthday, it was also for the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Enjoy the pictures!

Kimora leaves Baby Phat

In what can only be described as HELL FREEZING OVER Queen Fabulousity herself has announced that after 14 years, come September 1st she will be leaving Baby Phat. I’m not sure why she’s leaving but I know that she didn’t quit and Baby Phat will never be the same. It is because of Kimora that Baby Phat has evolved to what it is today. Without Kimora the line would still consist of t-shirts instead she used her creative genius to create a complete line and even branched off to create accessories, shoes, make-up and a kids line. People love this line so much that they’ve tattooed the cat on their bodies in honor of the fabulous one.

All of my readers know that I’ve wanted to work for Kimora for the last 5 years so this really makes me sad. I do know that Kimora will be A-Ok, she’s a winner and will come out on top. She has her tv show, her fabulousness and the three clothing lines that she created Fabulousity, Kouture by Kimora and KLS.

Kimora’s twitter followers began speculating after she only mentioned her lines not associated with Baby Phat in an announcement that she was looking for models. One follower asked if she was still with Baby Phat and she replied “As of sept, sadly NOT!” I don’t know if the execs over at Baby Phat realize this but people only bought Baby Phat because of Kimora, they wanted to feel like they were part of her world. Kimora is Baby Phat. I’m unsure how the line will do now that she’s leaving but we shall see. So, in the words of Kimora herself “On to the next one.”

***************Update************


Simmons released a statement to the media in which she says:

“After 14 years of conceiving and nurturing Baby Phat, it’s time for me to move on and further expand my other businesses and create a new phenomenon. I adore all those who have faithfully been with me since the beginning. I’m forever dedicated to my family, fans and customers. My inspiration has always come from the fabulous women who have been with me through the years as we’ve grown from young party girls to power players! We’re ready for our next journey together and we’re taking a whole new generation of incredible young women with us. Girl power unite!”

Good luck Kimora, we love and support you!
