Beautiful Home celebrity

So... This AvsP 'event' is the 5th or so dance off on NA Home. I think a dance off every now and then is fine, but the majority of ALL our events have been dance offs. Not to mention all these events are only being held in Central Plaza, when Home has a variety of spaces to choose from. Even if home was prohibited to only use core spaces of Home for events... we have the gamers lounge, the mall, the bowling alley, numberous theaters, etc.. We even have the presentation podium, that can make its return during events or something.
Most of these events were given rewards for participating. Kudos. However this 'event' doesnt. So not only are we particiapating in an event that is basically the same thing as most other events on NA Home, we're encouraged to buy these $$ costumes for the event with no reward granted. Hell... I cant even be with my friends at this event because my PS3 just froze up 5 times after accepting an invite to different central plazas. This is damaging my hardware shutting my system on and off like that. Please, make events worth while, The lack of creativity really has me wondering 'Why'.
Suggestions for future events:
1. Events around Home in different spaces, not just central plaza.
2. RPG style events like that of our friendly neighborhood Japan Home.
3. Events that dont consist of Free vs Paid/Paid vs Paid items by "dancing off"
4. Something BIG, like the Xi event. That event had the forums active and more users involved.
5. How about an event that requires us to obtain unlockable items from the games around home, and use them to access other parts of home, to complete another challenge. For example, you need the echochrome outfit to access theater 5, which gives directions on what to do next, etc...
Get creative Home! Dance-offs are getting played out, seriously. At least give us more dance emotes if we have to endure more 'dance-off' events than something more creative.

Couldn't have said it better. However, CydoniaX in all her worthless manhand glory disagrees:

We also thought people were tired of dance-offs, but YOU the users wanted to throw them! As long as people are having fun, where's the harm? No one has to buy anything to participate.
That said, we do encourage everyone always to "think outside the box" and throw different types of events in different spaces. And until we get an events space, Central Plaza IS our best events space! But keep throwing out your ideas, we love them!

Of course, she fails to acknowledge that every single suggestion made for events is either locked/linked to a suggestion topic, moved to support, or just flat out ignored. She is soon owned with the following message:

Don't buy the whole "user run" event scenario. Sure, an unpaid representative for Sony helped organize it and make posts about it, but this was an HCM/HCV deal the whole way. How many users/clubs get posters for their events splashed over CP posters? Hey Cyd, I'm going to have a free blue shirt vs free white shirt dance-off. You gonna get those posters in CP? I didn't think so.

I would like to see this event come to life ASAP!

here it is, although, it's not much of an update:

-Irem Festival finally gets the Goldfish game, which brings a few new items to win.

-This nifty "Tester guitar."

-Some shoes for the females

-And some "Ancient Greek" items to put into your apartment that can only hold a handful of the total amount of furniture you already have.

The big thing they're pimping this week is the AvP "dance off." "Whoever wins...we lose." That's all I have to say about that.

Now, enjoy this funny comment I saw in the PS.Blog comments section, under the AvP post:

The Alien vs. Predator costumes and items (yea, that's right. all you douche bags who doubted me and said they wouldn't come can EAT IT. Maybe you should listen next time.) They're only going to be around until the end of April so get 'em while they're hot.
