Every year I look forward to visiting Washington DC for the White House Correspondents Dinner events. It’s a weekend filled with non-stop parties and the time of year when celebrities take over DC and we get to see President Obama’s comedic side come out. This year marked the 100th anniversary of the organization’s founding and featured headlining comedian, Joel McHale.

Kicking off WHCD Weekend with The National Journal/Funny or Die First Amendment Party
What better time to skip town and head to DC then during the White House Correspondents’ Dinner weekend? Last night I kicked off the festivities at The National Journal/Funny or Die First Amendment Party!
Rosario Dawson gave a speech, Charlese Theron held down the VIP section, while Rishanda Jones and Jon Favreau casually walked the room.

The event was such fancier set-up then last year. Hosted in a former Borders bookstore, it was quite swanky and not without a sense of humor — Amy and I fully enjoyed the photobooth and ridiculous array of props.

The White House Correspondents’ Dinner happens tonight hosted by Jimmy Kimmel at the Washington Hilton! I’ll be at the CBS/Atlantic pre-reception tweeting from the event. You can follow me @prettyconnected.
