LIBERIAN ENTERTAINMENT AWARDS is said to be way to give recognition to Liberians for their dedication and hard work in the community, liberian entertainment,etc. NOW I Believe it's another way to bring Liberians together to celebrate being Liberians and to admire the talent, the achievements and great work Liberians have done. NOW LEA DOES INVOLVES ITSELF IN CHARITY WORK AS WELL FOR LIBERIA.
I went to every event starting with the welcome party. Now there was a huge controversy about the welcome party . There was another organization using Liberian ENT awards name to promote their Club sky lounge by having a FREE welcome party for LEA. Now the LEA team was not happy about this. Regardless of the Sky lounge effort, LEA party still went well.
Now let's get to the LIBERIAN ENT AWARD SHOW, I was a little late to the event but when I got there seem like I was right on time. There was a room for media and red carpet, then there was a another room for purchasing LEA tickets,SNACKS ,etc. AS I Enter the autorium, I must say It was huge ,so many seats, and the stage was great for performances.NOW I WAS EXPECTING TWO HOST, but there was one and an announcer. Now the host,he was pretty funny.
I enjoyed his company,he kept us entertained with comedy and different video clips that had the crowd insane. AS THE SHOW WENT ON, the opening act did a good job LIBERIAN artist WONJAH AND GEORGEE B. The show was followed by giving of the awards followed by performances by liberian artist. WHEN IT CAME TO PERFORMANCES I ENJOYED LIBERIAN ARTIST G-RIZE,Georgee B, WONJAH, Moses SWAREY, WASSUP lib gospel singer Alvin p, TRU story,BABY EYE, and my favorite performance tokay TOMAH. Tokay TOMAH killed it and had the entire audience engaged in her performance.

SUPERCUTE AND MRS TOMAH
Highlight of the evening was the giveaway of three $500.00 checks to charities and organizations helping the Liberian community from LEA.
Overall I had a great time at LEA, but honestly last year was a little better. LAST YEAR HAD A BETTER CROWD AND I ENJOYED THE VENUE. I still believe that LEA needs to do a lot of research when it comes to choosing their nominees. A great example is awarding LIBRRIAN artist David mell HIPCO artist when in doubt he is a singer. But we all make mistakes and we learn.
LEA needs our Support,constructive critism, and honest advice/opinion. I do have faith in the LEA so Liberians let's support. LEA is one of the outlet's we have to bring Liberians together for entertainment, recognition, enjoyment, etc. I am proud of the LEA team and happy to know that they want to improve this award show. . Currently they are puting a commitee team together ,which proves that they are ready for improvement.
