Diana Ross

Her, uh, all the cast from Nashville, a lot of the people from Nashville, a lot of the people from various shows.

I saw, um, Evan R- Is his name Evan Ross? Diana Ross' son that's married to Ashley Simpson was there.

A bunch of different people.

So, um, that's actually, that's actually so sad.

Found some glasses.

Went outside, started listening to Diana Ross.

Came back in here, started going into some Asian regime acting like Bruce Lee.

It w- That shit was crazy, bro.
