Hey Bombers and Bombshells!
So Coachella ended yesterday with performances by Nas, Damian Marley, and Kanye West.
Earlier in the day, I ran into Solange Knowles, who was super fun!

We hung out a bit in VIP and chilled in between performances.

I also ran into Chanel Iman, who paused for a twitpic:
Cute!

The night ended with a moving performance by Kanye West. Mr. West knows how to put on a show, so pulled out all the stops: fireworks, dancers, smoke, and even an elaborate wardrobe change.


He dedicated his performance to his mother, and aptly sang, “Hey Momma,” as his final song. I’ll admit I teared up:

It was a great ending to a fabulous trip!
Thanks so much to H&M for helping make Coachella 2011 possible, and also to Mitsubishi for shuttling me to and fro in their electric I-Miev cars.
Guys, come to Coachella next year! It’s fun and different…it’s basically the bomb!
I’ll definitely be making a return trip in 2012…
Smootches!
*My friend Andre recorded the first song in Kanye’s set. Check it out here:
