As if Lady Saw and Spice along with Pamputtee and Gaza Kim are not enough plus Tanya Stephens and Band, word from the Conscious Minds promotions camp is that ‘the night of the divas’ November 17 show is getting even bigger.
It is now confirmed that Destra and her band has been added to the cast as well as Denise Belfont from Trinidad. They are the most recent names announced as efforts are being made to offer Guyana an all female invasion to show the different sides of and celebrate women in the Caribbean. Women are the bedrock on which the world is formed… they are mothers, sisters, aunts, cousins, professionals, home makers, economists, managers etc and yet while some are all of these we have watched others be beaten, abused, disrespected and as conscious vibes promoters we are taking a stand to show that men are not all negative towards women, and that though they have many sides to women we must love them, flaws an all” said Public Relations Manager Mondale Smith.
Adding his voice and support for this event is Us based Broadcaster Bobby Vieira who says “This event is not aimed at disrespecting any one and it sure will not offer that kind of vibe as it is more of a celebration of women in their various forms to live their lives being the best them that they can be while empowering them against Domestic Violence.”
Smith says that all contracts have been signed and the relevant permissions have been granted from the police, the fire service and the Magistrate’s court to make this event a most memorable event for men and women to come out and enjoy at the Providence National stadium. Amongst the sponsors thus far are West Indies Spring water produced by Fidelity Investments, Princess International Hotel, the new ‘This is it Mini Mall, Caribbean Cargo, Banks, BTV Ch2 Caribbean Music Box, Hits and Jams, Ezjet and Go fashion boutique.
