POPtART GALLERY

If Miley really wants to get her twerk game in check, she'd be wise to hit up this weekend's Banjee Ball. This fierce event meshes the vogue-ing balls of NYC with a runway-fashion show feel and music performances, including electro-pop dance band Purple Crush playing their poppin' new track “Thirsty.”

The ball will feature a special appearance by Cherie Lily — better known as Mrs. Andrew WK and a New York dance music fave who meshes enough cardio-craziness into her show to put an aerobics-era Jane Fonda to shame. Prepare to sweat. Also with Kiki Extravaganza, Miss Barbie-Q and DJ fave Josh Peace (Mustache Mondays, Evita) on the decks.
