Before last night’s BET Awards in Los Angeles, the network’s CEO Debra Lee teamed up with Cedric the Entertainer to host the sixth annual “PRE” exclusive dinner on Saturday night. “Debra Lee throws a great party,” said Michelle Williams (in BCBG Max Azria), who hung out with R&B singer Kenny Lattimore at the event. Selita Ebanks (in Olcay Gulsen) stayed close to singer Estelle, while Ciara stopped by in a Willow dress and Louboutin shoes, which didn’t last long. “I will kick my shoes off in a heartbeat!” she told us—poor Loubs!—before hitting the dance floor with fellow guests Tatyana Ali, La La Vasquez-Anthony, and Eddie Murphy. See more photos from this weekend’s hottest events in the gallery.

Grammys Hair Watch: Ciara Lightens Up!

Feb 12, 2012 @ 6:30 pm

Ciara kicked off Grammys weekend with a hairstyle update, lightening her black-to-brown ombre strands to a brighter, sunnier shade. “I just wanted to have fun,” the singer told InStyle.com of why she made the change at the Clive Davis pre-Grammy Gala last night. “I’m a tomboy at heart and I just felt like attitude, like not caring a little bit, to be honest.” So, do blondes have more fun? “I do think blondes have more fun,” she admitted. “You definitely feel a certain way when you wake up. You have to punch things up a whole different way.” Tell us: Do you like her look? Let us know in the comments!
