Sunday March 30, 2008- 6:00 p.m…

DJ Khaled, Baby, Lil’ Wayne & Lil’ Chucky backstage…

So Lil’ Wayne is about to make his way to the stage and it’s like freaking Secret Service is on location.

First, they asked people, production folks included, to clear out the area nearby the trailers. Then, they barred people, including production folks, from the backstage area. But as you see from the photo above, we were granted access regardless.

Weezy Backstage… 

It’s interesting to see dude backstage. Someone actually offered him a lollipop. Jokes!

Dude: Wayne, you want a lollipop?

Lil’ Wayne: I don’t want that sh*t!

Apparently he had his own stash.

6:15 p.m…Nivea Shows Up

If any of you wondered whether or not Nivea and Lil’ Wayne were together, the answer is, “probably.” Shorty just snuck backstage while Wayne was performing. Unfortunately, we were slow on the draw and couldn’t flick her in time. [See What Lokwey Has To Say On Sound Off]

Anyway, some folks that shall remain nameless thought Wayne hogged up all the attention at Spring Bling. Apparently the hype was a bit much for her taste. What do you guys think?  Is Wayne overhyped? Speak on it!

Make sure to tune into BET’s Spring Bling April 10-13.

The first day’s over folks. If you excuse me, I need to get some rest because tomorrow’s going to be as busy as it gets. In the meantime, I leave you with a few more flicks from Day One at Spring Bling 2008.

Ray J & Friend… 

I’m not sure you remember dude on the right. He used to play one of Ray J’s friend on “Moesha.” I think he’s a photographer or something. 

Ray J’s Friend: “You want me to take the picture with you and him [Ray J]

Me: [Thinking, "Hell No!"] No! But you can get in the picture with him though.

Tiffany Evans…

Just when Miss Evans was getting ready to flick it up, a girl from her entourage asked me for credentials. I promptly popped my badge out, took the flick and kept it moving.

Shawty Lo Getting Off Stage…

Teyana Taylor & Her Mommie…

DJ Khaled, Wyclef Jean, Rick Ross, Rocko & Chingy

Backstage…

I’m out. If you’re in West Palm, have fun, drink responsibly and remember, never go against the family. Wink…wink!

Make sure to tune into BET for Spring Bling April 10 through 13.
