Rock n' Roll Doggie
...they kinda sucked, but the afterparty kinda rocked.
So here is what I did with my Tuesday night:
My girlfriend was invited to the awards and party as she works for the company and due to this, I get to act cool (I repeat act.)
We went to the show which as at Radio City Music Hall here in NYC and I thought the show was just being taped, little did I know that it was live. My girlfriend styled most of the jewelry on the stars and models in the show but mostly took care of the host (Debra Messing (the girl from Will and Grace.)) We had great seats in the orchestra and we knew a ton of people through her work, but there were also a ton of peole she dealt with (security guards, celebrity staff...) that kind of impressed me. In any event we sat amongst the rich and famous and the show was pretty good - I thought Bowie was great, but I have to say it was a bit weird sitting there and having these stars get up and walk past you simply to use the toilet. What was also weird was because it was a live show, when they went to commercial, the house lights would come on and we would all get up and mingle until the countdown started for them to go back live. It was interesting.
Then there was the afterparty.
It was held at the Hudson Hotel and because the place was kind of small it was packed. Here are the people who looked me directly in the eye last night:
Hugh Grant
Tyra Banks
Naomi Campbell
Natalie Portman
Paul Sorvino
Heidi Klum
The Hilton Sisters
Jaime Lynn Siegler (Meadow from the Sopranos)
Eve
Michele Branch
A ton of models who I had no idea who they were, but my girlfriend knew all of.
The coolest thing of all, however was at the party my girlfriend had to take care of some work related stuff having to do with Debra Messing, so we walked over to her 'posse' that were hanging around her to talk to her manager. When we got over there they invited us to sit and have some champagne with them and Debra treated my girlfriend as if she was her best friend. They started chatting as if they knew each other forever and were giggling and joking around. I saw a photographer start shooting pictures of us - so if anyone sees a photo in a gossip column of Debra with some random people (her in a slinky dress, me in a blazer) that's us.
I have to say I was starstruck all night, but realized that yes, these people drink, smoke and go to the bathroom just like the rest of us....
