TINA TURNER!
(or at least one of her back-up dancers)
Last spring I saw her performing on Oprah and I mentioned to Michael that it would be fun to see her live. He was not into my idea. "Tina Turner? Isn't she like 100 years old?" You see, oneof the perks of Michael's job is being able to get tickets to popular events, but because he usually does the asking, we end up at all the must see sporting events. Well, now I know not to forget to mention all the fab concerts that I would love to see.
Michael scored us tickets to the Tina Turner concert last night at the Staples Center. A big THANK YOU to Coca-Cola for allowing us their suite for the evening. What an amazing show! That woman is 68 years old and she rocked it like a teenager. It was the celebration of her 50 years in the music business. 50 YEARS! She sang and danced for 2 1/2 hours, changed her costumes at least 5 times and each time she came out sporting a different pair of Christian Louboutin stilettos. I could not get over her $6000.00 shoe collection for one evening! For the past year I have been trying to convince my husband that a housewife with 4 kids would really benefit from a pair of those red soled masterpieces. I honestly think I might have him convinced. Sadly, I spent most of the night fantasizing that she would call me up on stage to gift me a pair of those beauties. Or that I won a contest and I was chosen to be one of her backup dancers for the night. Silly, I know, but a girl can dream.
Michael did mention at the end of the evening that it was one of the best concerts he had ever been to. And for those of you who know how many concerts we go to, that was a huge compliment. He actually kept thanking me for coming up with the idea. Who knew?
Well, it's Friday and this housewife is back to reality. Cleaning, cooking and laundry all eagerly await me. I hope you all have a great weekend.
XOXO,
Gaby
P.S. Sorry for the lack of photos, my camera was way too big to get past security.

We love concerts. i'm going to have to go with you next time. I love sitting in the suites;-)
Maybe Michael would let you get a pair of those nice expensive shoes if you promised him that's ALL you would wear:)
you and the other rich b...ch need to go to a concert like I do and sit in the last, and I mean last row of the staples center! Just kidding. Just take us with you next time you and/or Kelsey get the 'goods' from your influential husbands:)
