OK FINE.
Sheeesh. You are worse than MY MOM. I could never get booze past her either.
I know! I know. I am going to do the laundry now.
I've searched, but have not yet seen any candidly snapped photos or "I was there"-type cell phone pics or footage of the event being posted anywhere.
IMBW, but if there are no other pics or video out there in Internetland or Facebookland, then could that mean it was an 'exclusive,' i.e. candid photos and videos by attendees may not have been allowed? It seems so staged! (JMO)
Funny about the GettyImages copyrighted photos of the event which are watermarked and offered for sale at the Getty website, along with GettyImages pics of other events which have been held at Books & Books in Coral Gables in the past:

The professional celebrity photographer (VJ) who documented the JB event has photographed at least one other book signing at Books&Books.
A Google image search for the name of that photographer brings up scads of published U.S. celebrity and event photographs in the Miami area and elsewhere. He/she has taken pics at red-carpet events for Univision and Telemundo as well. His/her pics are used by spanish-language news and gossip sites in addition to U.S. english-language sources, as well as others internationally.
VJ appears to generally sell pics to (or is contracted to take pics for?) Getty and other photo licensing entities owned by Getty.
Wonder what this is all about?
YUP - they read here alright. Clicked this A.M. and you-know-who + hired peeps posing for pics with "The Book of Lies" :floorlaugh:
SERIOUSLY - check out the chick in the blue "hot body" dress
Oh...my bad...thought she was there for you-know-who's book signing!! LOL - need more coffee.

Isnt the girl in the blue dress posing with her own book? He does have a few guys posing with him further down the page. Wonder if these are some of the "5 starers" at amazon.

Good Morning Peeps - here's my "get real" sales report for Baez Presumed Guilty this morning.
Business is booming for Mr. Baez in August - he has sold 6 books to date. :deadhorse:
And those stats have raised his sales rank to: #2334
Should we be in awe and admit he's a winner?
In a word...."NO" ...:floorlaugh: Read your numbers and weep Jose! :lol:
Maybe it's just his professional portfolio and he's planning on a modelling career?..:waitasec:
A friend of mine has a portfolio like that - she paid the photographer and uses it to get jobs or companies pay to use her images in their digital ads...:waitasec:
HOw about "before" and "after" ads....works for me...
bbm Pretty steep price - $375! Does that mean Orlando Sentinel had to pay that much for Hal B. to use that little pic of JB for his TV Guy Blog post about the book-signing? Wowza.
Perhaps all this is coming from the new "publicist" JB is said to have mentioned in a FB post? (I have not seen the post, just read about it.) Publicity firm of Somebody-and-Wright?
I was on hold so I looked to page two of those photos and noted that the Senator who did a book signing had many photos of long lines on the sidewalk waiting to meet him. ust something I noticed.
Also did you notice that JB is alone in most of the photos. The ones with him checking his phone, several sitting on the bench all alone... So sad...No one will let him sign a book..
:lol:

She is on a show called basketball wives, I dont even want to admit how I know that....
