Party Promoter of the Month for October 2020

Bio

Madina Milana Is from New York
According to her Facebook, Madina Milana hails from Brooklyn, New York. She’s the eldest among six siblings, most of whom are based in New Jersey.

She grew up with three brothers, Baruch Santana, Elshama Santana, and Perickles Vasilaropoulos, and two sisters, Gabriella and Zoe Santana. According to some of her siblings’ Facebook posts and a few sites, Milana was born Helen Santana. However, this information cannot be verified.

Work has kept the siblings in New York and New Jersey. Milana herself has had a diverse career in entertainment management based in New York.

Her brother Baruch Santana is a casting director who owns the New York-based Brooklyn Entertainment. On his social media, he mentioned that he was able to set up the company in 2008 with the help of his parents.

Milana Worked on the Casting of Avengers
On GUHHNY, Milana is a hip-hop manager and she sure is a very good one, with years of experience under her belt. She graduated from Kingsborough Community College and gained experience in acting, music, theater, comedy, and more in the New York entertainment scene.

She has a handful of acting credits, with minor appearances in Law & Order: SVU, The Brewster Project, and Up in Harlem. She also supported aspiring entertainers while at the helm of Actors Aid and the New York Acting Academy. The two organizations appear to be defunct at least since 2013.

Much like her brother, Milana has racked up some major credits as a casting director. She was involved in the castings for The Avengers, Tower Heist, Man on a Ledge, and The Amazing Spider-Man 2. With such amazing work, we wonder why she’s not in Hollywood!

Milana Is Wendy Williams’ Best Friend
GUHNNY is not Madina Milana’s claim to fame. She is well known in the entertainment scene thanks to her friendship with talk show diva Wendy Williams.

If you haven’t seen Williams partying with Milana and Blac Chyna on her 55th birthday, you can see evidence of their sisterhood on Milana’s Instagram. And the two have mentioned each other and their close bond in the media several times.

This famous friendship began more than two decades ago, when Milana was working for Ice T and Coco. Williams and Milana hit it off instantly and formed an unwavering friendship.

Their bond even extends to a professional partnership, with Milana working as Williams’ social director. She was even a producer for the Wendy Williams Show back in 2008.
