LOS ANGELES (Top40 Charts/ Interactive One) HelloBeautiful the largest and most dynamic website focused on African-American,
Latino & all women of color, proudly presents its fourth installment of the acclaimed INTERLUDES LIVE! franchise featuring Atlantic Records recording artist, actor and philanthropist, TREY SONGZ.
The greatest R&B singer of his generation performed two of his new current hit songs burning up the airwaves, "
Na Na" & "Smart Phones" and all of his most lusted-after hits including "Say Aah," "I Invented Sex," "Bottoms Up," "
Can't Be Friends" and "
Successful" for a VIP-only audience at the intimate Greystone Manor nightclub in Beverly Hills, CA.
Interactive One Chief Content Officer & host of Interludes Live! Smokey Fontaine sat 1-1 with the Petersburg, Virginia native whose five albums and legendary stage performances have catapulted him to worldwide fame.
"Interludes Live! is about showcasing the world's most talented performers in a personal & intimate way," says Fontaine. "Talking to Trey about his life & career, having him open up about his growth as a man, and then watching him perform his magic in such an up-close venue, is truly a special moment."
Following the huge success of episodes with Alicia Keys,
John Legend &
Toni Braxton & Babyface, Interludes Live! continues its ground-breaking cross-platform approach to content creation through the series' partnership with its broadcast and national radio siblings, TV One &
Radio One.
Trey's performance & interview was taped for a 1-hour TV One broadcast premiering June 21; HelloBeautiful.com promoted 9
Trey Songz webisodes featuring exclusive clips and behind-the-scenes moments; live versions of Trey's hit songs are being played across the
Radio One Urban/AC airwaves, and lucky listeners from around the country were flown in for a special trip to Los Angeles after winning an on-air contest.
Effectively combining digital, broadcast TV, radio & a one-of-a-kind live event is the kind of high-touch 360 content & native advertising programming HelloBeautiful.com's parent co,
Interactive One (iOne), and its partners are uniquely positioned to produce.
