Barbados Music Awards

As many of you know, the second Barbados Music Awards were held last Friday at the Wildey Gymnasium. Rihanna took home many of the top prizes, as expected. But the night belonged to many persons, who strutted their stuff on the gold carpet for the local and regional 'paparazzi'. (I cringed when I saw that word being used to describe our local photographers.) Anyway, here are some of the pix from the gold carpet, as promised.

Soca powerhouses Allison and Edwin made an interesting couple


'Entertainer' Contone didn't clean up too badly, though it's never a good idea to match the carpet...


98.1 Fm deejay Hurricane had one of the more risque dresses of the night


Soca artiste Keann looked cute


Singer Kim Derrick was loud and proud


Soca diva Kimberley Inniss was surprisingly (but refreshingly) tame in her choice of attire...at least from the front


Peta Alleyne was bold and beautiful


I don't know who Tejay is but this was not the wisest choice for the gold carpet


Maybe she's part of the entertainment....


I'm not quite sure what look she was going for...


This lady took her matching seriously


Jazz singer, the always elegant Rosemary Phillips


More tomorrow!
