Keshia Chante at the Guess Flagship Opening

Good Evening Everyone,

   This is your girl MusicAddictJane reporting on how the event was on Keshia Chante's Birthday: June 16th, 2011. 

    I arrive at the Guess Flagship store a little early as planned, but parking was very hard to find due to the fact the MMVA's shut down Queen St. West for this Sunday June 19th. I found parking around the John Street enterance near the movie theatre. As the day progressed. I found the location walking with my GPS finally (lol). There was a lot of media and there were a lot of people. The line was crowded and had people wondering what was going on and the invite for the store was small, luckily though there was a second floor.

As the day progressed. I went shopping of course and put some money down. Not just for the fun of it, but to support Canfar which Keshia Chante is youth embassador for. Also if you bought stuff, you get free things too like a goodie bag. Love what I found in it. There are a lot of things that I discovered in there. Guess and Flare you all are generous. The event also brought a performance of acoustic versions of Table Dancer and Set U Free.

I love the performance because it sounded raw and very awesome. During that time, fellow KC Ryder Michelle (@mcindahouse) and her twin sister Clara joined me but missed the whole performance getting their pics on but of course in the H&M cause it was her birthday so I thought it was time to give her something back, after touring and performing on the road constantly over the years. LOL she almost was going to give it back to me and tried attempt wise to put the gift card in my bag, I refuse. She tried to trick me by putting in what I had purchased/swag back at the Guess Flagship store, but I was smart and try to block her from returning it to me. She was overwhelmed by it and thought that was sweet.

It was fun, seeing her perform Table Dancer and Set U Free acoustic style. I got even a wave during the performance of the acoustic version of Set U Free. After she was taken away to the elevator for a change and having Steroes (& supposedly J Diggz was supposed to be there but didn't show up) singing a Happy Birthday to her... what I didn't know when we left to hang out with the media upstairs and talk for a bit as well as get our photographs on, we miss Keshia Chante downstairs, for how long, don't know.

 Enjoying the time seeing the media and the music upstairs, Keshia was downstairs. lol, smart on my part not thinking she was going to be still around. Me & fellow #KC Ryders Michelle and Clara we noticed something and we didn't know that Ms. Chante was on the main floor. We headed down as fast as we could and did our best to get Keshia's attention but decided to wait until the media did their interviews and what not.

During that time frame we finally got Keshia Chante's attention after the media interviews and breaks we got to talk with her, get a hug from her, got some photographs and talk. That was so exciting to be able to chill and talk with her for awhile, she thank us for coming out and representing. To add to that bonus I finally got to meet and talk with Tessa Agnelo and got to hang out with her behind the scenes, exciting moment of my life (lol)! besides meeting Keshia Chante of course. We talked for a bit and I think I was excited to meet Ms. Agnelo and we watched on while Ms. Chante got interviewed more. We got to talk about what was coming up for Ms. Chante for the album and the excitment surrounding it, also the video for Set U Free which was days of its premier of the New Music Live event. It was so much fun hanging out like that and kind of being part of the behind the scenes event like that. I think the security guard/tour manager was nice of me to talk with KC and say our final goodbyes and that was the icing on the cake for me and fellow KC Ryders Michelle and Clara (Fashionistas) that we got to chill with Keshia Chante. Meeting everyone of importance there, was I think the best thing I could of been a part of.

Ms. Chante and Ms. Agnelo was cool, even the security guard was cool of me going up to Keshia like that. LOL of the security guard spotting me like that. This video below is my favorite because I get everyone in the shot.

This video I believe has brought Keshia Chante back to the industry. I am so glad I also got to hear the new single Shooting Star. I was there for New Music Live for her interview. It wasn't such a good day because of the Rain and the Much Music Awards just finished but I was there for the whole interview.

Appearance & Campaign For Keshia Chante's Day & Night Album

Hey Everyone,
   Good evening this is your musicaddictjane representative and I am currently doing my 2011 music rounds. You may ask why? I do it for the fans and represent music everywhere. Curretnly making my rounds to see for the very first time Shawn Desman perform at the Bloor-Yorkville Festival. I have seen KC a lot in performance but I am interested to see in the rounds what she sounds like, cause so far it has been different to every event I have been to of hers. It never sounds the same but sounds pretty good.

I know that Keshia Chante is releasing her new album later this year called Night & Day after the original title got changed recently. To the KC Ryders we all know that a promo called "Test Drive" was released this year which is part of her Night aspect part of her album which is the R&B version of her CD. The Day album consists of Set U Free (video premiere offically on New Music Live - June 23rd) and Table Dancer which are my favorite songs.

Just to know I am on my way to see Keshia Chante on two dates for sure: Invite only for the opening of the Guess Flagship Store (June 16th - which is Keshia's Birthday) which starts at 7pm to 9pm (could go longer than that) and $5 donations go to Canfar. I already got my invite.

 Also Father's Day is not just exciting to see Keshia Chante perform again which is the day of the Much Music Video Awards (possible stop by the Red Carpet may be... trying to win a wrist band this week) but my first time besides TV to see Shawn Desman perform. Very excited about that. The event is free for both their concerts at Bloor-Yorkville Festival.

I am on my way to schedule myself to seeing Keshia on June 23rd on New Music Live. I hope for a call back soon.... or else I am harassing them. LOL! hahahahaha. I know that she is going to doing something special there, so I plan to be there. Working around that. I know that she is premiering her new video for Set U Free that day, I plan not to miss that. I know the video is going to premier sooner on Vevo before hand.

Count me in there #KCRyders & Luvkeshiachante sites to be making my appearances there soon. Oh and the Shawn Desman fans too. I make sure you have something to check out. I met him in person once, but I am working on trying to get something special to rep all the fans there. I may ask Keshia a couple of things that day when I see her. I will make sure I will be fully awake to get all the events down pat.

See you all to a event near you... Keshia Chante wise and some other music icons I plan to be at if I can. Working hard for you.

Pepsi Throwback Pics Pt. 1- May 31st 2011

Hello everyone,
   So it is I, Musicaddictjane bringing you a lot of pics and video soon of the whole Pepsi throwback event. Working on the video aspect. But for now it is just pictures.

I thank the good people *Shauna Simon* at Praxis Inc., Pepsi, Cassie Stuart, and of course Keshia Chante for inviting fans once again through a sold out event media invite sponsor again.

Yes the theme was 80's and The Spoons performed.

It was a amazing show and my older cousin for almost backing out on me after text convincing that it was too late for her to back out the last moment; which she didn't and later didn't regret, after having a long day between us. I had to do some important business thing I signed up for 2 hours before arriving.

Constantly checking my email, twitter and facebook. As well as networking with someone I recognized from the Contiki party Michelle and talking with her about what the heck we were wearing and meeting up later that day. After the messaging and wishing each other luck, I forgot it was time to bounce because I had to pick up my cousin at her house and it was almost a disaster on my end cause she was "tired" and said she didn't feel like coming... I had to like i said no backing out cause your name is on the guest list. A hour around 5:10 pm I pick her up. I know I was running late and all picking her outfit and whatnot...

After arriving there and doing the outfit pick it is almost 6pm. I don't panic because showing up to these events is a long drag and being in so many I thought, good thing I didn't show up early. During that time, traffic... don't like taking public transit cause that would have taken even more time, really. After the 6:15pm to 6:27pm we find a parking spot, I parked the car and then we started to walk.

Of course I never been to Revival so we had no idea where we were going and we finally noticed it after crossing the wrong side of the street but we were on the right side before; thank goodness GPS. OMG! So it is like 6:35 pm roughly and of course I didn't see the MC or the band at all at this place, just other Twitter members and people. 
A few minutes later I see Keshia walk in a few minutes later behind us as me and my cousin are signing in. LOL. Of course I had turned around and talked to her and say HI, give her a hug and thanked her for being able to see her again and asked her later if I can get a picture later on (she agrees, I let her go on her way cause people are trying to talk to her and whatnot) and this time she was MCing, which gives MC hosts to mingle with the crowd. My cousin tells me wow, lucky me and says Keshia is really pretty. *awwwwwwww* I let her go on the way and I get myself a Pepsi of course with seeing free food being served as well as chips. We get settled in a few and I finally tap Ms. Chante if I can get more than one picture with her just in case you know if the other picture messes up. LOL @ me. As the night progresses Keshia hosts and talks with the crowd with Cassie Stewart about the Pepsi/Tweet Event and then the introduction with The Spoons around 7:10pm they perform a couple of their hits and a new song.

I thought they were great live for honestly a band I didn't hear of to be honest until I youtube them and thought one of their hits sound familiar. I was born in 84 so I kind of missed a little bit of them when they came out.

Later that night, it progressed to the best dressed portion for the guys and the girls.  Seriously the guys really got competitive. yes @hawaiian guy... for breaking your glasses and scaring a little bit of Keshia... OMG! Funny but creepy moment of the night. Wow, seriously... The other two guys and best friends apparently got Keshia sweating dancing to Thriller and another song... Really had a fun night. Oh and it was really nice to meet Michelle with her Madonnna looking outfit. Nice stuff!

During the breaks I tried to talk to Keshia's future event appearances but it was loud, I couldn't hear her that well and she couldn't hear me that well that I understood a few things where she may be. I appreciate everything Ms. Chante. We will see you soon.

Another successful night. Love the whole 80s thing. Made me at the night go home and watch Take On Me by Aha.

After getting home. Yes, I got some people at the retro twitter event follow me including Pepsi. Hello to all those who now follow me via Twitter. What up!
