IRVINE, Calif., June 28 /PRNewswire/ -- British-born R&B singer/songwriter/producer Jay Sean, whose songs have reached #1 on the Billboard Top 100, will perform a private concert at this year's My Fabulous Quince party created and hosted by Verizon Wireless and LG. In addition, the artist will meet fans and sign autographs at select Verizon Wireless stores that host free Quince planning expos.

Eligible teenagers from select cities across the western states are invited to participate in the third annual My Fabulous Quince contest and win an incredible Quinceanera party valued at over $45,000. The celebration includes an event planner, venue, catering for 200 guests and transportation for the winner to and from the party.
