A JOIE TO BEHOLD

“I’m having so much fun,” guffaws Interscope EVP Joie Manda to LVRN’s Tunde Balogun and Justice Baiden at Interscope’s pre-BET party in L.A. “I cannot believe the sheer joy I’m experiencing right now.” His companions heartily agreed, adding that there’s nothing so deliriously enjoyable as having one’s photo taken for a sleazy trade publication like ours.

Interscope’s Archie Davis and Pusha Rod concur that “open bar” is among the most beautiful phrases in the English language. Later, both of them had a hallucination that involved Steve Berman dancing on a coffee table.
