An Open Letter To Ben James

A very good friend of mine, Ben James, a brilliant man who run’s the business side over at Gigbot (the world’s coolest music website), decided a few months ago to take a wife. Now, whether it was Beyonce’s “Single Ladies” that did the trick or not, he finally decided to “put a ring on it”! And now, to celebrate the last couple months of singlehood, he is making his way to the city of sin, Las Vegas. Unfortunately for me, I can’t make it, but I wanted to send him off right! So Mr. James, this is for you:

Benny:
I wanted to be sure I sent a big “Yee Haw!” your way before the bachelor party debauchery begins! As you know, I would have loved to have been a part of it, but because I am not there does not mean I don’t wish you all the best that Las Vegas has to offer and you know that we’ll have plenty of time to celebrate the union of you crazy kids in the future.

But have no fear because I will certainly be there in spirit. So, remember that as you’re sitting in your private box at PURE night club shaking your groove-thang with Paris Hilton, who’s dancing on the table knocking over the thousands of dollars of comp’d booze, and while you’re schmoozing and striking up business deals with the Maloof Brothers, and then dropping lines in the bathroom with Spencer Pratt, while Heidi Montag-Pratt is debuting her new “single” on the stage at the Pussycat Dolls Lounge next door. In fact, I’ll even be there when you hit the course with Tiger Woods and Justin Timberlake the next day for 18 holes, and then again later when you and JT bring “sexy back” at the Planet Hollywood Hotel’s pool. And of course don’t count me out when you and Kobe decide to hit up Studio 54, but get side tracked when you have to break up the latest domestic violence battle between Rihanna and Chris Brown. Yes, I’ll even be there for that.

So, just remember – although Vetrano won’t “be there” to contribute to the weekend, I’ll be there to relive every gorgeous moment of it, whichever version you decide to share…because what happens in Vegas, stays on the Idol Insider blog! 🙂

Have fun and congrats!
