Rough Trade and Vanity Fair

February 27, 2007

Page 1 | Page 2

There are many great things about Vanity Fair's Oscar Party, including the food, the (generous) lighting and the endless insane mix of people. Everyone makes their way into that event. It is the only place where the life that's been sucked out of everyone who watched the Oscars is restored by people-watching and In N' Out Burgers.

One fascinating aspect of going to hard-to-enter parties is finding the person (besides MYSELF) that leaves you wondering how the hell they got in. We met one such character who we nicknamed "rough trade."

With big teeth and bone structure most in the room had payed big bucks for, RT was as intriguing as the insane bun on top of Celine Dion's head. He worked in some aspect of the healthcare profession. Lives in West Hollywood. I think he said he doesn't have cable. He enjoyed the Oscars.


He was short on details but loooong on possibilty. He had a crowd around him all night. To put things in a simple language we all can understand, RT was getting more attention than Nicolette Sheridan and Michael Bolton. I wish I had spent more time talking to RT. I can't even remember his name.

RT, where are you? Do you read blogs?

There are plasmas everywhere with a live feed of who's posing for pics outside so you know who you're about to run into. My friends and I took a pause from RT to marvel at the fact that America's Spirit Suzanne Somers was working it for the pap's and on her way in.

Andy,

So cool you went to the Vanity Fair party! I stood outside that shindig probably 8 or 9 years ago. Only "famous" person I could make out from my vantage point behind the caution tape and temporary barriers was Fran Drescher getting helped out of her limo. Guess you have to actually get INSIDE in order to spot the A-Listers!
