Yesterday was a pretty fun day for me … a late afternoon movie preceded a surprise concert performance by Robyn which preceded a late night bar hang … and I didn’t even get hungover! Score!! My Friday was very long, very fun and full of very amazing friends. Check out some photos below from my fabulously fun Friday night.
David and I saw an early showing of the new movie Hanna (review forthcoming) and then had to be home right after so I could change and meet up with Darion at PopStarz for a surprise live performance by Robyn! The show was totally hush hush but D managed to get us the hook-up and we were able to get up close and almost personal with Robyn herself:
Altho she only played a short 4 song set, it was much more than anyone was anticipating. Here is video of her fun performance of her new hit song Dancing On My Own:
I got to meet a bunch of Darion’s friends, including the fabulous Nicole (who I think is gonna be a new BFF for me, actually). We all had a total blast together last night:
After the show (and wee bit of dancing), I met up with Josh Z. in Culver City for some beer drinkin’ fun at the Backstage Bar. It was karaoke night and altho we did not indulge the crowd with our inability to sing, we did manage to find a photobooth in the corner of the bar so we could take some fun snaps:
It’s crazy … I guess I never noticed how many photobooths are still in operation around LA. I have a rule that if I do find a photobooth (the real kind, not the crappy digital kind) then I MUST take a photo. Josh had to be cajoled into posing for the camera but he ended up loving it.
I had big plans for this afternoon … but now I’m not sure if they’re gonna pan out. It’s sunny, bright and beautiful so I’m gonna be outside one way or the other. Happy Saturday, y’all!! Have a great weekend!!

Trent, I’ve been a fan of yours for about 6 years now! I’ve started my own blog on Student Rush/Lottery policies and Stage Door Etiquette for Broadway shows!
http://broadwayinformer.blogspot.com/
Any good ideas on how to get a blog, “out there?” I started it because as an avid Broadway go-er, I always wanted a page that gave me all the information on student tixs and lottery polocies, but could never find one! Also, how to behave while waiting for a actor to come out the stage door :) Keep up the great work!
Oh, almost forgot, I love photo booths too!! I had one at my wedding for all our guests to use :D
Robyn looks like a blast to see live. I have to ask though, what was the point of the show. Was it to promote something or did she just decide to do this secret mini concert?
@Chris — She’s playing the White Party in Palm Springs tonight and decided to do a short radio gig to promote 97.1 AMP here in LA beforehand
@Trent – Oh ok I gotcha. Very cool. I’ll have to keep an eye out for her to see if she is ever in the Pittsburgh area.
I know God is a loving God, who adores all His earthly children.
But if he loves ME…why have I NEVER run into a straight dude that looks like Darion?
@Liza I know. My heart breaks a little every time Trent posts a picture of him.
You lucky so&so! I LOVE Robyn, but I can’t handle the late-night dates she’s been doing at clubs on this tour–feeling the years “-(. Thank you so much for posting this video–made my week!
Any chance that you were at Disneyland on Saturday? I saw someone who looked exactly like you, but was too shy to say hi. My husband spent the rest of the weekend telling me that I was an idiot for not seeing if it was you, given that I’ve been reading the site for eons.
“NEW hit song”? Ha.
@Wendell — Well, “newish” from her latest album :)
