Name That Celebrity
On the left... no, it's not Britney without her wig on, it's Mena Suvari, backstage with designer Amir Slama. On the right ... nope, that's not Carni Wilson with long hair. It's Daisy Fuentes! Back to the Media Whores' Handbook for both these gals. Mena: Long, flowing hair will get your career back on track, NOT the dikey do. Daisy: The maternity smock is NOT a crowd pleaser during Fashion Week. Remember, a little slutty goes a long way!

I'm Too Sexy For My Shirt
photo: John PerezI'm able to charge top dollar now (I don't get out of bed for less than $15K), yet I look older than 18 which is Cardinal Sin #1 for a runway model. Ugh, those bags under my eyes! Note to self: Stay away from cigarettes and alcohol the night before a show.

Hilary Swank and Demi Moore Backstage at Miss Sixty
We've noticed that Hilary has vastly improved her Media Whore skills lately. The Tea Room loves Hilary's slutty shirt, flowing hair, toothy smile. Demi... what the heck's going on? Where has our pole-dancing, gyrating, show-it-if-you-got-it Hollywood diva gone? Why when we see you now do you look like a cross between Tuesday from the Adam's Family and that mean buyer from Barney's? Is it that you've had so much botox that you are unable to move your face? It is still no excuse for covering up that expensive flesh. Ashton can't be turned on; we know we're not.
Fighting to Get In
OK, they may not be fighting to get in to Fashion Week, but we still REALLY enjoy looking at this picture.

Next to Christy Turlington, John Bartlett is the Best Thing Since Glitter
One of I.M.’s favorite menswear designers, John Bartlett, showed his Spring 2008 in his first ever boutique in the West Village instead of his usual edgy runway shows. After closing his business in 2002, he traveled to Thailand and Cambodia taking up Buddhism and yoga. He re-launched his menswear line is 2004, expanded the line in 2005, and will create home goods for his new 500 square foot store.
In 2005, the handsome 44-year old designer was named creative director of Ghurka, the luggage and leather goods company, for which he now consults.
John told DNR - “My fantasy is to find a sales guy with a handlebar mustache.”
I.M. often has the same wish.
The Whorehouse was THIS CLOSE to producing front of house for this designer back in 2001.

Melrose from "America's Next Top Model" at Fashion Week
photo: John PerezWow this flesh-colored smock did nothing for Melrose yet she still got some attention. If she was taking tips from her Media Whore's handbook she would know that she committed three sins here:
1. She didn't look slutty enough
2. Her hair was up in a bun instead of down and flowing
3. Show some teeth when you smile (unless you're British & have shitty teeth, then keep your mouth glued shut, just like Melrose).
Are We Turning Anybody On Here?
photo: Eli CeballosThere was a time when the words "male model" made the chicks among us giddy with excitement. That time is clearly gone. Let us say this: If you are going to channel Buzz Lightyear, Buckwheat & Richard Simmons for Fashion Week, can we please use some male heat? This is depressing all the way around...
Nigel Barker Looking HOT HOT HOT at Fashion Week
photo: JohnOk so he showed up LATE to a new designer show, which was so damned hot his seat was taken. Hearing I.M.'s dolphin cry from the front gates (only discernable by D.W. and a handful of police dogs), two not-so-worthy onlookers were booted from their front row seats to make room for Nigel and his young assistant. Anything for a Media Whore!

BOY DO I MISS I.M.
Once upon a time there was a very busy Press Pimp named I.M. For almost 15 years, I.M. spent the better part of August and January frantically planning the most dynamic, visually sensational fashion shows for New York's Fashion Week. Lo and behold, one season, a fellow Brit (did I not mention I.M.'s Scottish heritage?) descended upon Fashion Week from (gasp) California. I.M. was smitten. Fellow Brit convinced I.M. that his creative genius was needed in San Francisco, where Herculean attempts to compete with New York and L.A.'s Fashion Weeks were being planned. I.M, eagerly accepted the challenge. Though his devoted subjects were broken-hearted, they took comfort in knowing that though I.M. was spending fog-filled mornings speaking San Francisco-ese, he still considered New York his true home. So much so in fact, that I.M. still returns to New York for Fashion Week every September and February, accompanied by Fellow Btit and a slew of aliens (aka Californians) with him.
So be advised I.M.-watchers, the eagle has landed this afternoon. I.M. was spotted getting in a taxi at JFK at approximately 1 PM (EST) today.
Stay tuned...

Tea Room Friend Earns A+ Hostess Badge at Fat Angel Party
Super-stunner Elise Pritchard, known affectionately by friends and fans as "Fat E" explained to the media after her Fat Angels Jersey Shore event why her parties are so successful.
"Alcohol," she told D.W.. "A party just can't be successful unless you have an overflow of liquor."
Guests are still marveling at the large-scale Ice Luge that she had crafted for the debaucherous occasion.
Behind the scenes Fat E worked her magic. She single-handedly headed off a catastrophe when workers arrived with two gargantuan frozen magarita machines which, when plugged in, failed to work.
Ever the intrepid hostess, Fat E instructed an army of bartenders to head to the liquor store and double up on hard alcohol, which already was in abundance hours before 300 guests were scheduled to arrive. Vodka, scotch & tequilla were successfully sent flowing down the canals of the luge for the entire evening, leaving event-goers perfectly smashed.
The Tea Room loves Fat E!
