This past Saturday, Ashanti performed at Pure Nightclub at Ceasar’s Palace in Las Vegas. The Myspace sponsored event doubled as a pre-season warm up for her return to the music scene sometime this Spring. Given the pathetic state of music right now, where new artists, complete with star power, are few to non-existent, Ashanti just might be able to break through the thick crust of haters that bashed her last two albums into the dust bin.

Always have been a ‘she’s not that bad’ flag waver. The worst singer ever stuff just never made sense to me. But don’t go buying me her Greatest Hits. I’ve got Ipod standards. haha.

This being a Myspace event, guess who was there? The founder aka everyone’s “friend” Tom.

That’s his friend. Which brings to mind that infamous gumbo quote by Mark Cuban.. *paraphrased* “Tell em’ I’m a billionaire. Every million I make makes my dick an inch bigger.”

Don’t you love Vegas? It’s gotta be the only place in the United States that a man can throw on a lime-green 70’s disco outfit and not be laughed out of the building.

Ashanti strikes a front shot for the ladies *insert outfit and shoe comments*

A back view for the fellas *insert*

The club was packed with people having one of those nights to remember.

Let’s have a listen to some of Ashanti’s performance. I know, I just ruined the post.
