Keri Hilson's Birthday Extravaganza Last Weekend
It definitely went down as Keri Hilson celebrated her 25th birthday on Saturday. The event was so star-studded it became hard to tell the celebrities from the regular invited guests, or it could have been all of the themed 80's gear that everyone was rocking. Shout outs to Polow, Jagged Edge, Nelly, Jermaine Dupri, Cee-Lo, Jeezy, Chamillionare, London, I15 and all the other celebs that stopped through to show Keri; her night will definitely be unforgettable!
