NEW PICS: STEVE HARVEY'S 2008 6th ANNUAL HOODIE AWARDS.

Steve Harvey's 6th annual Hoodie Awards (short for Neighborhood Awards) took place last weekend at the Orleans Arena in the Orleans Hotel and Casino Las Vegas. The Hoodie Awards, which was created by Steve, is considered the awards show for the 'people.' As a matter of fact it's the only awards show where celebrities (from the A-list to the Z-list, respectively) not only give awards to other celebrities, but also honor and hand out awards to us civilians who provide extraordinary services to people in our communities by acknowledging local business establishments, religious and community leaders, churches and high schools for their contributions and excellence within various neighborhoods. Some of the categories include Best Barber Shop, Best Gospel Choir, Best Hair Salon, Best High School Teacher, Best Soul Food Place, Best Car Wash/Detail Shop, Best Nail Salon, Best Fried Chicken Place (stop laughing yall) as well as the The Best Community Leader just to name a few. I actually heard someone say the Hoodies is quickly becoming as popular as the Soul Train Awards. Whether the person who said it was trying to facetious or not is still a mystery. Especially since it's been a couple of years since we've seen a Soul Train Awards broadcast. Steve, once described the Hoodies as the urban/hood version of the Oscars with a twist. I would ask Steve to stop playing with me if Barack Obama hadn't deemed this event worthy enough to make a surprise call during the taping to commend Steve on executing such a positive event.

Anyhoo, celebrities who attended this year's awards show included: Steve Harvey with is wife Marjorie, Wendy Raquel Robinson (Steve's former The Steve Harvey Show castmate), Patti LaBelle, Regina King, Dwele, Cupid, comedian Bruce Bruce, Kirk Franklin (with his wife Tammy), LisaRaye's rival Rocsi, Judge Greg Mathis, House of Payne stars LaVan Davis and Cassi Davis, Steve's radio show co-hosts Shirley Strawberry and Carla Ferrell, comedienne Sommore, Dr. Ian Smith and more.
