Caroline Roman & Kevin Parker at Katrina Wan's birthday at Boudoir

Saturday, November 12, 2010:

30 years ago today a star was born. Katrina Wan, the E! News segment producer who parlayed her tenure at Disney publicity into what we know as Live from the Red Carpet One Hour Special: Pirates of the Caribbean 1, 2 & 3. Boudoir promoter Brett Gurskyarranged sparklers, 3 ft pizza and played Tu Vuo’ Fa l’Americano just for the birthday girl. Katrina is well known in the film publicity world and is currently the V(I)P of Publicity atIndomina Releasing. Muah!

Also in Boudoir this eve – some cast mates from the Real Housewives from Beverly Hills, namely Kyle Richards who was celebrating her assistant’s birthday. Also in the house: Nicky Hilton, Brandon Davis, Kojo, and not with them but nearby we noticed Britney Spears parents!! The Umansky/Hilton clan was coming down from the Esquire House which was hosting a benefit for Oceana (you may remember them from there LV party earlier this year). The Esquire House, now in its 2nd month, is at a gorgeous home in Doheny Estates with amazing views! The master bedroom was decked out with Ferragamo. There was a fabulous media room theatre too! A cute touch was the “Corum Study” where guests were invited to bid on a special limited edition #1 of 50 Admiral’s Cup for Tourneau diving watch (retail price $8,000) graciously donated by Corum to benefit Oceana, a worldwide charity which focuses their efforts on protecting the world’s oceans.

Elle Fanning and Stephen Dorff and Sofia Coppola

The 2ND ANNUAL “Honorary Oscars” … Some usual MOCA suspects missing this eve turned up at the AMPAS 2nd Annual Governors Awards (as in Oscars) across town in Hollywood. This event is like the “honorary Oscars.”

The Academy’s Board of Governors basically gets together and decides to honor some of their peers; awards and toast were given to Francis Ford Coppola, Eli Wallach, Kevin Brownlow.

Also spotted: George Lucas, Natalie Portman, Kevin Spacey, Robert deNiro, Sharon Stone, Marissa Tomie, Oliver Stone, Kathryn Bigelow, James Caan, Robert Duvall Justin Long Josh Brolin Sam Rockwell, Clint Eastwood, Francis Ford Coppola and son Roman and daughter Sofia with Somewhere stars Elle Fanning and Stephan Dorf. You should all follow @TheAcademy on Twitter – especially as we near the Oscars.

The party featured a band - The Honey Brothers, Adrian Grenier jammed with them is also an ambassador for Oceana - and several bars with catered food stations. The host for theOceana event was Esquire’s Publisher Steven McCrory. Also spotted at the house: Jeff Goldblum, Theo Alexander, Sam Trammell, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Lake Bell and the Four Seasons’ Kim Kessler. Adrian Grenier (with new girlfriend, Emily Caldwell) and The Honey Brothers were up again early the next day for the “Children Uniting Nations’ 12th annual Day of the Child event.”After his set, Adrian sat at the end of the stage, talking with the kids, signing autographs and even letting them get their hands on his luscious locks.

MOCA Gala! After last years extreme performance from Lady Gaga and the Moscow ballet, MOCA was in for a challenge. MOCA Gala Chairs Maria Arena Bell and Eli Broad, Honorary Gala Chair Dasha Zhukova, Dinner Chairs Lilly Tartikoff Karatz, Nancy Marks, and Carolyn Powers, and MOCA Director Jeffrey Deitch delivered with Beck + Devendra Banhart. Chanel Fine Jewelry sponsored the party and Max Azria sponsored the exhibit. MOCA has already had two warning fetes earlier this month, one at Chanel and one at Max Azria’s and the modern museum of contemporary art also had a VIP preview two weekends ago. Much hoopla for one of L.A.’s biggest nights in arts, philanthropy and fun! Spotted: literally too many celebs to mention but, Gwen, Gavin, Dasha, Ginnifer, Cameron, Rachel + Brad - to name a few, lots of PRs from Grey Goose, Harrison + Shriftman, MOCA and Slate PR and lots of reporters; Reagan Alexander from People, Matt Donnelly from L.A. Times, Merle Ginsberg from Hollywood Reporter and Morley Safer from 60 Minutes. The Ribisi’s, the Bell’s, the Chow’s, the Azria’s, the Arquette’s, the Taschen’s, the Ruscha’s. Every local high-end artist and art collector. Also noticed Peter Morton (Hard Rock), Gil Friesen (A&M), Richard Buckley sans Tom Ford, LACMA Director Michael Govan, Bettina Korek, Lauri Firstenberg, Eli & Edythe Broad, Zen Freeman on the 1s and 2s, former WME chairman Jim Wiatt and the Mrs, Lisa Eisner, Lisa Love, and Gray Davis who has been spotted all over town recently at video game launch parties, courtside at the Laker’s, and now here. Complete story on MOCA gala here!

Seven (jeans) knows how to party. The jeans maker had two back to back parties to celebrate their 10 year Anniversary - first with Vanity Fair (Tuesday night) and then with Vogue Thursday night. Though not all mankind were invited, a cool thing about the Vogue dinner party was an installation set up in the home in Beverly Hills themed for the 7 senses … and you thought there were only 5!

Over at the Santa Monica airport, Sanrio held a VIP night to kick off their 9 day exhibit and carnival at the Barker Hanger. The company has invited popular artists from around the world to collaborate in two standout art exhibitions: Small Gift Los Angeles and Small Gift Miami, during Art Basel. Small Gift Los Angeles is a 10 day carnival-style event open to the public Friday, November 12 – Sunday, November 21 at Barker Hangar in Santa Monica. Small Gift Miami is the East Coast anchor event and will take place December 2 – 5, during Art Basel.

We love offspring! Sam Branson was in L.A. with his dad Richard Branson, and grandmother Eve Branson, for the family’s annual Rock The Kasbah gala.

The Los Angeles Opera often grabs a tenor or two and meets us half from the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion for a little performance. Thursday, they teamed up with Stuart Weitzman on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills to put on a mini opera behind the store in the Rodeo Collection under the stars.

Earlier in the day, Neiman Marcus held a tea party for Ken Downing, a fashion week front row regular and fashion director for Neiman Marcus.

Down Burton Way at the SLS, Three Day Rule founders Talia Goldstein (nee Berman) and Valerie Brennan are giving Patty (Millionaire Matchmaker) and Steve (Tough Love) a run for their money with their monthly match-making parties. The SLS was packed with well dressed singles looking to mingle.

BAMBI trophy winner Orlando Bloom attended the 2010 BAMBI Awards wearing Chopard’s Grand Prix de Monaco Historique watch.

And now for something a little different … the 2010 Bambi Awards were held in Germany on Thursday. This is the coolest awards show you’ve never heard of! And likely to have the best dressed attendee list too! Named after Bambi (yes, the deer) these awards honor media and TV influencers. You know it’s cool when Beth Ditto, SJP, Orlando Bloom and Karl Lagerfeld are the headliners! Another need-to-know fact is that the actual award itself, shape of BAMBI the deer, is manufactured by Chopard!! It doesnt get much more chic! See the winners.

Wednesday, November 10, 2010:

The biggest thing on our radar this eve was the Harry Potter premiere in London. The new Harry Potter movie will be in theaters nationwide this November 19th and you can buy advance tickets here (I recommend this).
