Award-winning actress and film producer Marsai Martin recently commemorated her 18th birthday with a very lavish star-studded party.
Marsai celebrated her big milestone with a Shrek-themed birthday party on Aug. 14. She took to Instagram to gush over the star-studded celebration, which was attended by her loved ones and celebrity friends, including R&B singer Kelly Rowland and actress and model Karrueche Tran.
“Ever since I was little, I have believed Shrek 2 was the greatest movie of all time…and for the past 17 years, I knew for my 18th that I would do a Shrek-themed party,” Marsai wrote. “Best believe if I want it…I go get it [champagne glasses emoji]. Thank you, Loriann, Maya and the whole @wifeoftheparty team for helping me bring my vision to life. [A] special thank you to all those in attendance for showing up and showing out. Especially grateful to those that let themselves really get lost in our world. [There were] sooo many amazing looks, and so much beauty all in one place. Another chapter in the book. I hope you all enjoyed [white heart emoji] until next time.”
