Actor Tyler Marcel Williams, who’s known to most as little Bobby Brown from the “New Edition Story” cast, brought in his 16th birthday with the most lit party filled with celebrity peers, close family and friends. He surprised by his dad and a host of unexpected family members flying in from Los Angeles. The night started with a spectacular fashion show by 424Fashonz, then there was a surprise performance by rapper Joe Gifted, a pop up surprise appearance by Starz network show “Power” actress Donshea Hopkins (Raina) and the “New Edition Story” (cast mates) hopped on stage with Tyler to give the crowd a flashback live performance from the show.
The event took place at a private Atlanta event space with multi-purpose rooms. Frito Lay sponsored the event. On hand were plenty of food/soft drinks and a red carpet green room filled with press and videographers to capture the night’s highlights. Special invited guests included The Mako Girls, Caleb McLaughlin (“Stranger Things”/”The New Edition Story”), Jahi Winston (Proud Mary/”The New Edition Story”), Dai (Dai Time Magazine), rapper Joe Gifted, Myles Truitt (“The New Edition Story”/Superstition), Hollywood Whitt, and Jaxson Stuart. The crowd rocked out.
As the evening progressed, Williams changed into his final outfit to match his newfound 16-year-old look with a red silk shirt from his own Drippy Way, Drippy Wear clothing line (custom made by 424 Fashonz), black trousers and Gucci accessories. In case you didn’t know, Williams will also be playing young Bobby Brown in the upcoming BET premiere of “The Bobby Brown Story,” which recently wrapped production and is scheduled to be released Sept. 20, 2018. Bobby Brown highly admires Williams, stating, “He’s a great kid and I’m proud to have him as part of the production. From the initial time we met, I knew he was the perfect kid to play me in the “New Edition Story” and I love that kid like he was one of my own. I think he has a promising career ahead of him.”
