Thursday night in West Hollywood was pure magic. The Fleur Room was buzzing, transforming into the ultimate playground for glamour, music, and VIP vibes. The occasion? The debut of LOOP After Dark, a monthly party with celebrities, influencers and other VIPs, exclusive to our subscribers. The night’s star was Hana Giraldo, our first digital cover star from 2020, celebrating five years since her landmark issue and LOOP’s debut. Adding extra sparkle, previous LOOP cover star Jaden Bojsen was in the house, proving LOOP alumni always bring the energy.
Signature cocktails were flowing all night, including The Hana with vodka, Kahlua, and espresso, In The Loop with tequila, prickly pear, agave, lime, pomegranate, and black lava salt, and After Dark with gin, cucumber, watermelon Red Bull, lime, and black lava salt. By 10 PM, the Fleur Room was packed. Every booth was buzzing and DJ Alex The Lion had everyone moving, keeping the energy sky-high.
When Hana and her fiancé Kyle Massey arrived with a close circle of friends, the room lit up. Guests snapped photos while Hana greeted guests and signed prints of her first LOOP cover. It wasn’t just a party. It was a full-circle celebration of Hana’s rise, her style, and LOOP’s growth. Industry insiders, influencers, and friends moved through the crowd like a constellation of star power.
An unforgettable moment came when Massey joined LOOP CEO & Founder, Charles Ewudo and LOOP Public Relations Director, Julianne Elise Beffa, for a toast and gift presentation. Phones came out as Hana received a massive framed print of her inaugural LOOP cover. Kyle told her, “You’re a superstar in every single way,” and the crowd erupted. It was the perfect symbol of her journey from our first digital cover to a rising music star and a celebration of LOOP’s own five-year glow-up.
As the speech and frame were delivered, Hana and Kyle took a moment to groove to their summer hit “Paradise.” Watching them move through the crowd felt like a VIP version of the perfect night out. The vibe was electric but effortless. The room had luxury without stuffiness, and everyone felt like part of the inner circle. Hana’s glow made it clear that LOOP After Dark isn’t just a party- it’s an experience.
As the night went on, the crowd grew, the energy built, and The Fleur Room became the epicenter of West Hollywood nightlife. Guests toasted, danced, and sipped cocktails that sparkled as much as the people drinking them. Every corner offered a moment to remember, and the sense of being part of something special was everywhere.
LOOP After Dark celebrated Hana, LOOP, and the VIP lifestyle we’ve been curating since day one. Guests left buzzing, talking about the next event, the cocktails, the music, and most of all the energy.
The night ended on a high note. Hana had been celebrated, Jaden brought the alumni magic, and everyone in attendance had been part of the very first LOOP After Dark. Champagne flowed, glasses were raised, and memories were made. This series is here to stay, and the city’s coolest people will be lining up for the next one.
