The Soul Train Cruise at BET Experience in Los Angeles
We are thrilled that Soul Train Cruise was a part of the massive 2014 BET EXPERIENCE in Los Angeles from June 27-29. Hundreds of interested attendees joined us at our information display in the Centric Pavilion. Many surprise guests dropped by every day to get everyone pumped up for next year’s cruise. We also gave away two cabins on the cruise for four lucky attendees.
BETX was a great success, with three days of nonstop entertainment at L.A. LIVE. There were wall-to-wall performances and interviews with all the biggest stars, including Big Tigger, Faith Evans, Tank, Talib Kweli, Warren G, and Eric Benet. There were also opportunities to meet favorite entertainers, such as Jennifer Hudson, cast members from “The Game,” “Gun Hill,” “The Start Up,” “Real Husbands of Hollywood,” “Comic View,” “Sunday Best,” “Being Mary Jane,” “Reed Between the Lines,” “Being” and so many, more, as well as the Sprite Celebrity Basketball Game. Justin Bieber, Snoop, Terrell Owens, Mike Epps, Soulja Boy, Andre Drummond, Omarion, Ty Lawson, Marcellus Wiley and others showed off their skill in the paint for coaches DeSean Jackson and Kenyon Martin. And Metta World Peace showed off his DJ skills, spinning tunes for the crowd.
