The 63rd annual NBA All-Star game is in the books. The game itself broke records for scoring and three point shooting. It also featured a mini concert from Pharrell Williams who brought along a few friends to break off hits from his two-decade career in music.

 

Skateboard P was joined on stage by Nelly for “Hot In Herre,” Diddy and Busta Rhymes for an updated “Pass the Courvoisier” with the lyrics changed to “pass the rock right now,” fellow Neptune Chad Hugo for N.E.R.D’s “Rockstar,” – Jill random fact, I worked on the NERD project back when I worked in PR for Virgin – and lastly,  Snoop Dogg dropped in for “Beautiful.”

The performance ended with “Blurred Lines,” “Get Lucky” and “Happy.” Complete with Pharrell’s new trademark hat.
