Dre’s Recap:

Winners, nominees, celebrities and other on-goers headed out to the various pre and after parties all over Los Angeles to celebrate the holy grail award show for award season. I was pretty reserved in my visits this year because of Covid-19 precautions and I’m still not 100% comfortable around large crowds. But here are the few that I did manage to stick my head in.

Wow Creations Gift Lounge. On Thursday March 24th, 2022, several vendors including two of my clients Prevail Jerky and Sodajerk were on display and gifted luxurious items to attendees. This event took place at The Hilton Universal & guest were treated with relaxing harp playing & cocktails while they indulged in the festivities. Vendors included Olive Oil Pantry, House of Orange, LLC, Capa Gagna Califonia Wines, Amour Propre, Molly B. Gourmet Cookies and plenty more. Detailed coverage of the participating vendors coming soon. Make sure you are following RIDEPLAY tv and make sure you are paying attention inside one of our vehicles or stationary screens across the country.

Secret Room Style Lounge. On Friday March 25th, 2022, the event took place in Beverly Hills at the SLS Hotel Ballroom. Many nominees and talent attended this lavish invite-only event and were gifted amazing items from LuxeFair.com Magazine, Work It towels, Je Suis Diva, Souly Smokey LLC, BLUEBIRD BOTANICALS and more. Detailed coverage of the participating vendors coming soon. Again, I say, make sure you are following RIDEPLAY tv and make sure you are paying attention inside one of our vehicles or stationary screens across the country.

Women In Film. On Friday March 25th, 2022, The Women In Film Pre Oscar Party was Hosted by H.E.R. & WIF board president emerita Cathy Schulman and was located on the Bar Lis roof top of the Thompson hotel. I ran into old friends such as Sally Richardson, Garcelle Beauvais and hung out with new ones including first time Oscar nominee from the UK Denise Yarde who was nominated for her work on Belfast but also worked on Marvels Black Panther.
