This past week, HBO and Belvedere presented “Dinner With Bevy”. The event was held in the intoxicating and vibrant city of Miami. Amongst the swamp of bronzed gods and goddesses, a constellation of stars came out to play. Guests ranged from Directors Lee Daniels and Robert Townsend to Athletes. Baltimore Ravens Terrell Suggs and NBA All Star Dwayne Wade. Other guests included Micheal Beach, Eric LaSalle, Gabrielle Union and Tamara Tumie.
What, or who, I hear you ask; could bring out such an array of stars to the same place, none other than the heavenly body which is Sanaa Lathan. Ms Lathan is the Jury Ambassador of the 13th Annual American Black Film Festival; an occasion which is both a celebration and reinforcement of the hard work being exhibited within black cinema, an art form that constantly pushes to champion the beauty and diversity in African American culture.
Sanaa Lathan was honored for her diligent nature and hard work in helping promote such positive images. The event was hosted by, you guessed it, “Style Maven” Bevy Smith. Guests dined in the grand private dining room of the Mondrian Hotel; the beauty cuisine was proved custody of Asia De Cuba, and was just as exquisite as the guest of honor.
