Chrisette Michele's Big Night

May 13 | by Natasha

Chrisette Michele celebrated her #1 album in the country with an album release party at M2 Ultra Lounge last night. Her Day 26 friends and Dawn were all there of course.

And she also received an award at the SESAC NY Music Awards event last night. Nice. Later, she performed on "Letterman." Check it:

Tar Baby aka Coal Black African formerly known as African Girl: I heard that Chrisette’s cd sold for $2.99 on Amazon.com. Could you believe that? I know we’re in a recession but damn! I think a Happy meal at McDonald’s costs more than that. AN MP3 DOWNLOAD, IT WAS FOR ONE DAY. IT WASN'T THE PHYSICAL CD. I AM LISTENING TO THE ALBUM RIGHT NOW. I ALSO STILL LISTEN TO I AM. HAVE BEEN A FAN OF HER VOICE SINCE I FIRST HEARD HER ON JAY-Z LOST ONE.

I bought it for only 2.99 on

I bought it for only 2.99 on the 3rd day. What's funny is Ciara's was 9.99 and hers was 3 bucks. I don't think it is better than her first upon first listen. Dawn needs a stylist. She can't dress herself well.

Devonne: It is good to see

Devonne: It is good to see someone who can actually SING celebrate a number one CD. I guess , with her no-singing azz, thought that popping her coochie all over JT was going to sell her CD- it did not. I don’t dislike CIARA but she cannot sing and needs to beg Missy to with her again, because although her is fire, that is the only time I really like her. OMG, you took the words out of mouth. It is good to have real talent. I have both of Michelle's CD'S in rotation. I am tired of these girls getting contracts and they can not sing. i like Ciara dancing skills but she has no talent in the singing department.

Did you read the first part of the comment? I said she can sing her ass off but she does a bit too much for me(but then again who am i)...Chrisette sings with a country swang(lol)

Outside of Mary J a couple of years ago, I cannot think of any other singer who has deserved the #1 spot since. To actually have someone on stage actually SINGING, not dancing all hard, gyrating, booty poppin, throwin weave/wigs all over the stage, but actually SINGING and SINGING GOOD is a RARE treat. We do not get that too often. It makes me appreciate Chrisette all the more.

You know what's sad is that

You know what's sad is that Def Jam hardly promoted Chrisette Michele's new cd. They don't seem to show Chrisette as much love as they show my girl Rihanna. I believe there is enough love to go around and Def Jam needs to step up to the plate and spread the love. I had never heard of Chrisette before and it was thru these blogs that I discovered her. I went out and got her first cd "I Am". It is excellent. I love almost every song on that cd and I'm planning to buy her new cd.

"Here we go. Ah yeah. Let's

"Here we go. Ah yeah. Let's rock. I'm Christte Michele..." Love that song. Always on rotation on my ipod. I'm telling Chrisette is bad. Love the hair too. Chrisette looks like a whole different person. She was sporting longer hair on her first album but that did nothing for her looks. The short hair really brings out her features more. She's very pretty and I hope L.A. Reid & Def Jam allow her to keep it short.

good news she sold 83,000

good news she sold 83,000 cds. bad news that is the lowest amount a number 1 cd has sold in over 20 years of billboard history so her cd is still a flop along with ciara which sold only 80,000, but chrisette is the better artist.

REAL TALENT DOES EXIST. You

REAL TALENT DOES EXIST. You don't have to have naked pictures "leaked" You don't have to have a sex tape "leaked" You don't have to wear the hottest designer clothes just to go shopping to be noticed. You don't have to be a size 2. Real talent doesn't have to go through all of that. Chrisette's voice speaks for her and damn yall it's just straight up REFRESHING!!!!

Looks like its Chrisette's

Looks like its Chrisette's time to shine. New makeover look and everything. I really like that cut and hair color on her. I think Ginuwine and Joe still look good. Age has done them well unlike some artists case in point Jodeci, Al b. Sure, there's a long list. lol.
