Donatella Gets Lindsay and the PYTs to Celebrate Art in NYC

PopSugar — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 11:30:08 -0700

Donatella Versace gathered some friends from the fashion and art worlds in NYC last night for the Whitney Museum Gala. First up was a star-studded dinner, where Taylor Momsen and Mischa Barton mingled with Shakira and Jennifer Hudson. The festivities then moved downstairs for the afterparty, with Lindsay Lohan turning up to make a cameo. We had a quick chat with the newly-minted artistic adviser, who said she was there "for Donatella" - and the duo certainly looked close as they posed for photos. Lindsay said she arrived late for the bash due to her travels, but that she'd be sticking around the city to handle "personal business." LL apparently even opened up later about her rumored hookup with Balthazar Getty, telling Gossip Cop that she'd never do that to Samantha Ronson.

LL managed to avoid any run-ins with Samantha's family as she narrowly avoided Charlotte Ronson. Donatella was truly the woman of the evening as she hung out with Lindsay, Mischa and Shakira and they all checked out a DJ set from Gossip Girl Taylor Momsen.

Alec and Tina Go Gotham

Tina Fey really went all out with the sexy, while Alec Baldwin kept it a little more casual at last night's Gotham Magazine Gala in NYC. The dynamic duo share the cover of the glossy this month, and inside the pages Tina Fey talks about not being all hot. Think again, Vixen. Anyway, now that the writers' strike is officially over, I for one can't wait to come running back to TV for new episodes of 30 Rock. Seriously, if you're not watching this show you definitely should. Maybe reading some of their funny interview will help convince you. Here are highlights:

Tina on the future of 30 Rock: I think Alec being on the show bought us a lot of time. He’s such a brilliant actor and he’s not someone you get to see for free on TV. I think he absolutely bought us the whole first year. But I think that people who see the show really do like it; it’s just a question of getting people to try it out. We have the label of a “low-rated” or “poorly rated” show, but we’re doing better this year. And it’s weird, because on the same day I’ll see us referred to as “the low-rated 30 Rock” in the paper, and then I’ll read “the hit show Gossip Girl.” We rate higher than Gossip Girl, but there’s a different expectation [when a show is] on NBC as opposed to the CW.
Gotham: Have you seen Gossip Girl?
TF: No, but the children on it are very beautiful.
Tina's resolutions for 2008: Maybe an attempt at a less vulgar life. Less cursing, less bile. I sort of got into trouble last year - I went on Howard Stern and ran my mouth a little bit about Paris Hilton. [Fey called Hilton a “piece of s--” and said she “looks like a tranny,” among other things.] Not only was that not the right way for a 37-year-old woman to behave, but I went to my gynecologist for my yearly checkup shortly thereafter and she was like, “I read that thing [you said about Paris Hilton] in the paper. That was very hostile. Are you all right?” And I was like, You know what? You’re right. That was very hostile. What business is it of mine? So, starting there: being less vulgar and more . . . kind isn’t the right word for it. Perhaps more “Christian” in my dealings with people. Yeah, less vulgar. More Christian.

Alec on being the reason 30 Rock wasn't cancelled: I think it’s nice when people say that. I’ve heard people say, “Oh, the show wouldn’t be the same if you left,” because I was thinking of leaving earlier on. And that’s flattering on the one hand, but I don’t think it’s really honest - which is to say, you can’t be funny unless you have good writing. The two go hand in hand. It’s like someone writes good songs and somebody sings them well - but which is more important? I think they’re equally important. The show needed someone, oddly enough, who had this excess of authority and confidence, because everyone else is a geek or a nerd. Our counterweight to the geekiness and the nerdiness is [my character], an overbearing corporate executive.
Alec on resolutions for 2008: My resolution is to rest. I’m going to walk through the park, go to the movies, and rest. It’s been a tough year. With the strike and all the crap with my daughter, it’s taken a lot out of me. [Now it’s] time to do things that make me feel good. I want to have a pleasant, simple, easy, and enjoyable year.

Ah, "crap with my daughter." He will totally never learn to keep his mouth shut . . . I can't help it I still love him. As for Tina being nicer to Paris Hilton? I see what she means, but that was still totally hilarious.

NYC Is Still Filled With Fall Fashion

PopSugar — Wed, 06 Feb 2008 15:45:00 -0800

This year's seasoned Fashion Week vets like Ellen Pompeo and Angie Harmon got to rub elbows with some new faces as the event raged on in NYC yesterday and today. Eva Longoria went super sparkly for Michael Kors while Debra Messing looked chic posing with her man. After spending the days checking out the runways, celebs like Chace Crawford, Dylan McDermott, and Eliza Dushku hit up the party for the unveiling of Prada's flagship store. Wonder if these stars are developing new friendships after seeing so much of each other around Bryant Park for the week. We know that Fab and Bella probably wouldn't mind getting to spend some extra time with the few good looking men we've been seeing in the audiences.

Lots more pics including Sophia Bush, Ana Ortiz, Becki Newton, Brittany Murphy, and others so just read more.
