Ne-yo held a combination Birthday/After-party Saturday night at Atlanta’s Mason Murer Fine Arts gallery. The Cirque du Soleil themed birthday bash was the first stop for all the celebs in town for the 2008 BET Hip Hop Awards, which was held earler that evening.  The scenary was amazing! Guests were greeted at the entrance by a man with a machete and a naked lady in body paint and the liquor flowed as circus acts were performed in every corner.  

The red carpet was also booming as several “A” list celebs made their way into to venue immediately following the awards show.  The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Chingy, Gorilla Zoe, La La Vasquez, D. Woods, Bow Wow and more all took part in Ne-Yo’s birthday celebration.  Jermaine Dupri even ditched his own venue (Studio 72) to make a brief appearance.
