Last night Amanda Lewis‘ friends and fans gathered together to wish her well as she packs her wardrobe for the Miss Black USA pageant. (Remember her?) This pageant, like so many others these days, will be held at the Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas, NE, this Saturday, June 21.
Keep Amanda in your thoughts and wish her well. She’s a great personal friend of mine, and a worthy representative of the District in the Miss Black USA system!
