Attention Lauryn Hill: The Abominable Snowman wants his coat back. A bundled-up L. Boogie warmed up the crowd with a two-hour set at the EXPRESS Rocks show hosted by Skullcandy and VEVO at Harry O’s during the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah, on Wednesday (Jan. 26).
Ms. Hill took the stage in a spotted fur coat tied at the waist, purple turtleneck, denim button-down shirt, and bright eye makeup. She will continue on her winter tour, making its way back to the East Coast this weekend. Get a closer look at her winter wear below.
Janelle Monáe had a ball at the Bing Bar official after-party last night in Park City, Utah, where the 2011 Sundance Film Festival is currently being held. The pompadour-coiffed singer dazzled the crowd while wearing a black-and-white mask, a silk scarf tied over a tuxedo shirt, and black dress pants that hugged her hips. The eccentric chanteuse was getting warmed up for her performance at next month’s Grammy Awards, where she will take the stage alongside B.o.B and Bruno Mars. Check more pics of the powerhouse belter below.
Kelis’ fur fixation continues. No threatening letters from PETA could stop the “Acapella” singer from draping herself in a fur hat and coat at the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah, on Saturday (Jan. 23). She picked up some goodies at the Kari Feinstein Style Lounge before catching John Legend’s jam session with The Roots later that evening.
Legend, who dined with billionaire Bill Gates the night before, was seen visiting Sundance’s Village at the Yard with girlfriend Christine Teigen. He composed “Shine,” the end title song for the documentary Waiting for Superman, which was screened at the festival.
Kelis took the night off from being a mom to perform at the Film Lounge during the 2010 Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah, on Friday (Jan. 22).

The singer, whose new album Fleshtones is due this spring, was all smiles as she danced and sipped from a giant glass of Stella Artois.
