What happened at the MOBOs.

The MOBO celebrations were held in Liverpool last night, which I think was reasonably close to London compared to last year when they were held in Glasgow! 

Red Carpet Treatment

After putting together my outfit, my partner and I and one friend boarded the Virgin express bound for Liverpool. On arrival we didn't have time to waste so we quickly got changed and headed to the Liverpool Arena.


When we arrived at the Arena there were cheers and screaming fans as boy band JLS was making an entrance at the same time  as we did! 


We walked along the red carpet and once inside found our table and enjoyed what turned out to be a sell out night! The Arena was packed that there wasn't a single empty seat and lots of people were actually standing. There must have been more than ten thousand people at the MOBOs last night!


The celebrations kicked off with a buzz, Mark Ronson and the Business International performed BANG BANG BANG with immense energy! I was so excited to see Tinnie Tempah  win the  Best Newcomer Award !!! Also there were appearances by some of my favourite artists like Jay Sean perfoming a song from his new album which I'm yet to buy !

After the awards' ceremony we moved onto another venue where the after-party was being held. En-route were entertainers with drums to which I danced as they reminded me of the drums back home!


At the after-party we were served drinks and danced and mingled with the music-makers and after quaffing a few glasses of champagne my body was screaming for my bed so we went back to our trendy hotel and I promptly passed out! 


Seeing Jermaine Jackson present an award was awesome but actually travelling with him on the morning train from Liverpool to London was even better! He's such a gentle well mannered  guy and  he even let  me take a photo with him once the train pulled in to Euston.

In summary it was such a colourful event and I was thrilled to be part of it.
