Anthony Edwards celebrated his 23rd birthday in a spectacular fashion last night in Paris, surrounded by his family, friends, and teammates. The highlight of the evening was a surprise performance by rapper Gunna, making the event truly unforgettable.
According to sources close to the event, Edwards’ management team, spearheaded by Justin Holland, planned an extraordinary celebration for his “Jordan year.” They enlisted the expertise of Eva Paris, a renowned private event planner, to orchestrate the night.
Under the guise of scoping out a venue for a teammate after a team dinner, Edwards was led to a chosen spot on the Champs-Élysées. At midnight, he walked into the venue, the lights dimmed, and a chorus of “Surprise!!!” echoed through the room.
The guest list was nothing short of impressive, featuring basketball stars like LeBron James, Anthony Davis, Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, Tyrese Haliburton, and Alex Rodriguez. Afrobeats sensation Tems and several Olympians also joined the festivities to honor Edwards.
Gunna, a close friend of Edwards, didn’t miss the opportunity to perform some of his biggest hits, adding to the night’s excitement. Snoop Dogg, having recently updated his playlist to catch Edwards’ attention, highlighted the YSL rapper’s perfect selection for the celebration.
The party vibes were kept alive by Gunna’s DJ, Taurus, and Edwards’ rapper brother, B Different. Guests enjoyed an open bar featuring Ace of Spades Champagne and indulged in a specially crafted cake designed to resemble Edwards’ Adidas AE1 sneakers.
This star-studded event in Paris was a fitting celebration for the rising NBA superstar, marking his 23rd birthday with style, surprise, and unforgettable moments.
