JBJ at the NAN Gala Tonight?

The National Action Network website is talking about the Keepers of the Dream Awards tonight. President Obama is a special guest, and Bill Cosby is the Key Speaker. The award is given to individuals who work to advance Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s legacy of social and economic justice.

Rumor has it, that JBJ is expected at the gala tonight. Where he knows at least one of the honorees -- Ms. Sylvia Rhone (president, Universal Motown Records) -- the rumor mills are cranking overtime.

Of course, I haven't seen anything official, but the thought of getting new JBJ tuxedo pics is getting some of the girls excited.

Stay tuned...
