Johnny Gill’s Birthday Party
Johnny Gill celebrated his 40th birthday Sunday at BB King’s in Universal City. The club was packed with friends, celebrity well wishers, and media, including Jet Magazine. For an article about the celebrity attendees see eurweb. Photos can be seen at FilmMagic.
Being the wonderful man he is Johnny even invited some fans to join in the celebration. We presented him with a delicious cake from Krisp Kream in Inglewood, a plaque proclaiming him the “Greatest R&B Singer of All Time,” and a stunning portrait of him painted by McKinley Waddell of Las Vegas. As the SkillzFanz approached our “King of Romance” to wish him Happy Birthday, he opened his arms to us and asked “are these MY PEOPLE!” As one of the fans who were blessed to celebrate this milestone birthday, I want to again say “Thank you Johnny Gill! You are truly worthy of the love and admiration of your fans!”
