Media-Whore D'Oevres



"Steven Soderbergh's epic two-part Che is unquestionably one of most talked-about films of the Cannes film festival. Nobody's seen it, everyone wants to buy it, and the biopic has dominated club sandwich conversations at Du Cap for a week straight. It's perfectly fitting, then, that the party's first bash occurred a day before its premiere on Alberta Ferretti's posh yacht Prometej ...Ferretti played a proper host to shoeless guests like Victoria and Dennis Hopper, Tang Wei, Lily Donaldson, Caroline Gruosi-Scheufele, Olympia Scarry, Coco Brandolini, and Daniel Benedict and Andrew Saffir. 'This yacht is like a lovely present for myself for a couple of weeks," the designer confided.'" (Fashionweekdaily)

"Last night down at Christie’s, Maggie Jones, Executive Director, and Silda Wall, founder, of Children For Children hosted their 8th annual 'The Art of Giving' gala dinner benefit and honored Sherrie Rollins Westin of Sesame Workshop and David Westin of ABC News. Co-Chairs: Blair Husain, Kathy Lacey and Jim Hoge, Cynthia McFadden, Daniel and Leora Rosenberg, and Joe Versace." (NYSocialDiary)

"When we arrived at Michael's, at first blush the squadron of suits and celeb-free dining room (Okay, Kathie Lee was there) told us it would be a somewhat staid lunch today. Then things got interesting when David Gergen walked into the dining room — and was ushered to the Garden Room. Take that all you wannabees! Power is where you find it!" (FishbowlNY)
