Gay Men’s Health Crisis (GMHC) presented their 20th Annual House of Latex Ball last night at the Roseland Ballroom in New York City. The event included categories for competition in exhuberant expressions of dance, vogueing and modeling of fashion designs. During the past 20 years, GMHC has been able to use the Latex Ball as a great tool to reach out to thousands of attendees from the tri-state area to help raise awareness for HIV/AIDS by providing HIV testing and educational materials.
Bajan R&B/Pop singer-songwriter Shontelle was a judge for a special vouguing competition. After doing her part on the stage Shontelle had this to say via her twitter…
The Barbados beauty, Shontelle, premiered her video for directed by “Licky (Under The Covers)”Ray Kay. If I’m not mistaken, I believe the shades she’s rocking in this video are that ofSBShadesbut I would have to investigate further. Take a look and tell me if you see any similarities in her video compared to another female pop star, hehehehe!
So what do you think? But nonetheless it’s a hot video and hot song! Get into it!

Shontelle | “Impossible”
For those of you that may not know Shontelle, here’s hoping that this song will garner your attention to make you look further into her and her music. The R&B singer hailing from Barbados has a new song called “Impossible” produced by Stargate songwriter/producer Arnthor Birgisson and is said to be the lead single from her up coming project.
The song is really nice; I immediately got swept away into the song. The song starts off nice and slow with a piano part then picks up with synthesizers and snares then switches back to that same piano part during the hook and chorus. Most people are comparing her to Rihanna and I can see the comparison but I think this girl can hold her own vocally. I just think the producers she’s using aren’t giving her the “non-Rihanna” sounding tracks. SMH Who knows, I know I love the song. Check her out and tell me your thoughts.
