| Russell Simmons along with his wife Kimora Lee are making some major moves in the political world. They're set to host a $1,000 plate fund raising dinner for First lady Hillary Clinton who is now running for Senate in New York City. Mr Simmons has a huge SoHo [South of Houston] pad which will comfortably accommodate the 100 or so invited guests. There is no doubt this fund raiser will attract some high profile folks from the entertainment industry. The question is who? Will Puffy be there along with his boo Jennifer Lopez? How about Method Man or Redman will they pass a fat spliff to the First Lady and will she inhale? This should be interesting., but on a serious tip it's great move by Russell. If you want to have impact on public policy and also have the ear of powerful politicians these are the things one need to do at times. Who knows Russell may wind up being Hip Hop's first bona fide political lobbyist. |
