In 2020, UNWRITTEN

Unwritten was cancelled due to COVID-19 but will still be a special affair! We are excited to see how Paparazzi unveils this year's Convention collection, Zi winners, & recognition!  Tianne qualified as a Party Hopper for the 3rd year in a row!

ONE LIFE, 2019

For Convention in 2019, Tianne with Gem Box walked the stage for the first time! She also received a crystal trophy for Crown Club 10.  AMAZINGLY she also received a tiara trophy encased in glass for Life of the Party Platinum!  Last but not least, she modeled the Blockbuster "River Ride" and had an exclusive makeup artist session and photo shoot.  WOW - it was movie star moment for us here at Gem Box.  Convention is a huge celebration!  Watch Tianne put on her tiara HERE.

The Jonas Brothers will be the featured artist (yep, Paparazzi private concert) and our opening artist is Kane Brown.  We get TWO concerts at Convention, available only to Paparazzi Consultants - what a way to celebrate!  

Jeff and I attended with Pink Tickets (grants early access to Fall line and Zi Boutique due to being Empower Me Pink attendees).  We had a beautiful suite booked at the Palazzo and rented a convertible- Boy did we paint Vegas pink!  Huge shout out to Rebecca and Mike Walker of Pink Dragon Jewels for being our Convention buddies!

Rachel Platten is Coming to ASPIRE!

Every party deserves a pre-party! But the only way to kick off the largest Paparazzi party in history, is with something truly extraordinary. On July 30, 2018, all ASPIRE attendees are invited to join us for a very special evening with the one and only Rachel Platten!

You may recognize Rachel as the artist behind the powerfully motivating megahit, Fight Song, which many Consultants have adopted as the unofficial Paparazzi anthem and embraced as their personal battle cry. Her dynamic stage presence and genuine ability to connect with the audience are sure to make this evening unforgettable and you don’t want to miss your chance to be a part it!

More About Rachel

Growing up in Boston, Rachel Platten recalls harmonizing with her family to finely crafted pop songs - from Sam Cooke to The Beatles - that dominated her parents’ vinyl collection. As a teenager, Rachel gravitated towards, and began to become affected by, hip-hop and female singer-songwriters. “My CD collection was Tori Amos and Patti Griffin but then A Tribe Called Quest and Nas.” The commonality between the two seemingly different genres: confessional and vulnerable songwriting.

As a kid, Rachel dreamt about music as a career but never really thought it could happen in real life. “I grew up playing classical piano and I knew I could sing but I had no model to follow creatively. The idea of growing up to be an artist seemed impossible.” However, the electricity she felt on stage while studying abroad in college, performing in front of 80,000 at the International Soca Monarch Finals in Trinidad, inspired Rachel to start chasing what she once thought was an impossible dream.

After finishing college, Rachel immediately set out for New York City where she took up residence in the very apartment building on MacDougal Street in Greenwich Village where Bob Dylan once lived. Naturally, she found a band on Craigslist and started performing in clubs around the city. Those years consisted of paying dues through a mix of temping during the day and getting fired a lot, gigging until 4am, and lugging an 80-pound keyboard to her fifth floor walk-up night after night. Despite the struggle and the setbacks, Rachel loved being on stage, even if at times nobody was listening.

“I felt crazy sometimes that I still believed in myself when there were no signs that I should.” During this time, a conversation with her soon to be manager, Ben Singer, helped reignite her passion. “Ben helped me realize that I had to start my own fire and my songs would be the sparks.”

Rachel would find her first big spark with “Fight Song,” which took two years for the singer/songwriter to complete. She turned inward by telling her own story through the song. Turns out it was just the message people needed. “Fight Song” has without a doubt touched millions of people around the world with its empowering and resilient message of never giving up. "Fight Song" is certified 3x Platinum and has gone on to sell more than four million downloads worldwide; the single topped countless radio and iTunes charts around the globe before being succeeded by Rachel's Platinum certified hit, "Stand by You." Rachel's Gold-certified, major label debut album Wildfire was released by Columbia Records in 2016.

Rachel will release her brand new album titled Waves on October 27, featuring her newest single “Broken Glass” as well as the just-released album track “Perfect For You.” Rachel spent the last year writing and recording Waves in Los Angeles, working with top songwriters and producers including Ryan Tedder, Stargate, Jason Evigan, Ian Kirkpatrick, Nate Cyphert, Mitch Allan and Jon Levine. The majority of the album was recorded at the famed Village Studios in Los Angeles and all 13 tracks were co-written by Rachel.
