Last night we celebrated Paris Hilton’s birthday at Lavo. Paris was surprisingly early to the party, dancing in the DJ booth looking for attention as early as 11:00 pm! Who goes out this early in New York? Even I, Sammy Mak, arrived fashionably later than Paris. Looks like she put on a little weight, her face is rounder. But then again, I like a little meat on my Paris
I’m rarely impressed by celebrities, but the showing at the William Rast show at New York Fashion Week was ridiculous! (It just so happens that the owner of the line is Justin Timberlake…) From Anna Wintour to JC Chasez and Paris Hilton. We sat behind Jessica Biel and rubbed elbows with Erin Lucas and Samanatha from MTV’s The City ( btw I totally take back what I said about Erin before, she’s a total sweetheart in person and so beautiful! )
After the show we even ended up sitting next to Kelly Pickler and Kathrine McPhee at dinner at Koi at the Bryant Park Hotel down the block! Talk about celebrity overload! Kelly had a hot pair of ruby red sandels on and apparently just got a new tattoo on the inside of her left arm, and Katherine keeps getting some scandolous/drama text messages on her iPhone the whole dinner…
lol too many new BFFs to keep track of, I might need to learn a thing or two from Paris :-p

My new BFF Erin Lucas suggests me in the middle"like a sandwich"
Olivia Palermo is slowing becoming my favorite character on MTV‘s The City.
With Whitney Port becoming increasingly whiny and Erin Lucas becoming increasingly boy-crazy, at least Olivia stays true to her snotty “uptown” self.
Tonight’s episode is all about Popdish fave Kelly Cutrone being bitchy about some model being too skinny, but Olivia stole the best line in the show all night…
“You kidding? (chuckles) You think we have like… Shamu coming down the runway? No! hehe.”
At least she doesn’t try to be someone else while they turn on the camera like the rest of the cast.
Not more than 2 days ago I made the post here calling Erin Lucas from MTV‘s The City “the only real girl these days, in Reality TV, or in New York for that matter”.
Well I guess the joke is on ME!
My friend J (who managed to recently sell me a condo in manhattan while the whole world goes into recession) was kind enough to send me a link to an article on the site Curbed, which not only outed “hipster downtown chick” Erin as the daughter of AC/DC bassist Cliff Williams, but her apartment on the show is NOT where MTV claim it to be, it’s actually a million-dollar condo that daddy bought for her.
Well I guess that answers the question what exactly does Erin do. I mean does anyone ever thought about why Erin doesn’t really have a job on the show?? This explains it.
Lol so I’m heart-broken, twice in one week, thanks J
Just went to a Sake tasting class at Astor Center in NY. Tim Sullivan is a real “Sake Samurai” (it’s a real title). Just like Tim Gunn IS Fashion, Tim Sullivan IS Sake.
7 glasses later, this is my favorite bottle – The Narutatai Ginjo Nama Genshu, fortified so it’s smooth, unpasterized so it has the “zing”, and at full cask strength so uhh… it gets you drunker. Lol what’s not to love?
Whitney Port, perhaps the most normal and intelligent cast member from MTV’s The Hills finally gets her own show! At the prompt of People’s Revolution‘s Kelly Cutrone (I’m obsessed with her ever since we got seated in first class together on our way to LA Fashion week), Whitney got a job with Diane Von Furstenberg (apparently it’s a fake job according to Page Six and New York Mag). In any case, she up’ed and moved to New York city and now has her own show and is being compared to Carrie Bradshaw of HBO’s Sex and the City!
And the sad thing is, I totally missed the two-hour series premiere last night! But from what I’ve read about it so far, it’s sure to be a guilty pleasure and MTV will no-doubt rerun the premiere episodes over and over again.
Oh, did I mention I ran into Whitney shopping at the Bergdorf Goodman sale the weekend before Christmas? Sadly I was paying for some hot Dolce and Gabbana shoes and couldn’t leave the line to stalk her… lol
