One such celeb was actress Gabrielle Union, mostly known for her portrayal of a sassy teenage cheerleader in Bring It On and a man-hating big sister in Deliver Us from Eva.
Union and her husband, NFL player Chris Howard, arrived on Saturday night as guests of Island Events, headed by Douglas Gordon and Michelle Khan, for the Charity Golf Classic in Tobago later this week.
Touching down at 11 p.m. Union, who confessed that she was too excited to sleep, was whisked away to the popular breakfast party, Insomnia in MOBS2, Chaguaramas.
"It's a lot bigger than I thought," was Union's first impression as she gazed at the crowd. "It's a lot more energy than I am used to. In Los Angeles no one dances," said the actress as she took in the performances of Imij &Co, Destra and "the cute one", Rupee.
Union, who also confessed to watching the cable station Synergy obsessively in her hotel room, will be playing mas with Poison's Island Events all-inclusive section Jungle Fever.
"I don't know what that means, but yes, I am going to be on the top of the truck," said a laughing Union, who was thoroughly impressed by Junko, the Japanese power puff girl. "I love her... she's innovative," said Union.
She added that if she could throw a party in Los Angeles with Junko as her star attraction, she would be the most popular person in the city.
