Solange is officially the coolest celebrity I've talked to so far today at VMA rehearsals at Radio City.
I was hoping she'd oblige to having our VMA photographer, John Shearer (between him and Frank Micelotta, they've shot some of the VMAs' most iconic photos, including pretty much every unforgettable VMA photo of Britney Spears) take a quick photo of her after she finished her VMA rehearsal with Wale.
But when I approached her, she was all "Hey!!! What's up?" and actually remembered our previous interviews (once in a tiny TRL dressing room, once at an MTV Staying Alive event), and we pretty much bro'ed down (or whatever the girl equivalent is) when I flipped for her amazing eyelashes -- MAC -- her friend Janelle Monae's MAC Fashion Week event, and the horse necklace I was wearing. When she was like "how am I gonna remember the designer?" I was like, "I'll just Tweet it to you," to which Solange replied "Okay, now you're talking." WE HAD A MOMENT!
LOVE Solange and her understanding of Twitter's one-to-one efficiency. Oh yeah, wait! The photo! Check OUT that jacket; Solange is a one-woman Fashion Week. Wanna see more? Check out more shots of Solange stylishly chilled-out backstage.
Solange will be performing live with Wale at the 2009 MTV VMAs on Sunday, September 13. Don't miss it.
