This Week's Gossip
I had to wake Molly up last Sunday morning and she borrowed a set of my sweats to go run in Central Park with Rachel and me. The weather was perfect, high 60's and sunny. I had to smile as Molly watched Rachel in the tight, sexy, running outfit she was wearing. I told Molly to just forget it as far as Rachel goes, she's a straight arrow.
We went back to my place, showered and changed, then headed down to the Palm Court where we met Rachel for brunch. We talked about all the young ladies that Barry Watters has been dating, Tiffany Farina, Amy Bilson; would Janette Friday be next?
It turned out to be me!! After attending the press conference where Mayor Bloomberg announced that Emily Addison will be replacing Anne Heche as the Bronx councilwoman, I stopped in a nearby bar. I was sitting there sipping a drink when who should follow me inside but Anne and Emily. They took a booth way in the back and I planned to stay and watch, but who should suddenly take the seat next to me? Barry Watters! He offered to pay for my drink and I just couldn't resist finding out why the ladies were lining up. The rest of that tale goes in my private journal, but he's every bit what I expected.
On Wednesday night Rachel had to cancel her play since Lynzy and Eric had serious reasons to pass. They star as Will and Grace so it made sense to delay the play for one week. An old friend of Rachel's showed up though and we chatted for a while.
Chloe Barrow arrived in New York City this week, knocking on Rachel's door. She's the daughter of Blanche Barrow, the madam that was murdered in the same penthouse suite where Rachel now resides. Rachel called Joe Friday for her to set up a meeting since Chloe intends to find out who killed her mother. It's a closed cold case, but Friday met with her and agreed to reopen it for a month.
Friday night I spent some time with Donivan and Eva at the Four. Eva had just returned from Los Angeles where they interviewed her to go along with the photos Bobby Campbell had sent them. It sounds like Eva had a little fun on the side with the female photographer out there and Doni kept pestering her for more information. She promised to provide complete details once they were back to his place.
Saturday night I was chatting with April Electra and Adam Kaufman at the Four regarding April's modeling career. I promised to call my buddy, Bobby Campbell, to set up a meeting with him. Rachel dialed my cell phone and twenty minutes later I was in her Carnegie Hill penthouse apartment, listening as Chloe told us about meeting Barbara Swan at Mahoney's.
It seems that Barb worked for a pimp five years ago, when Blanche Barrow talked her into working for her instead. More money, better conditions, better high class clients. The pimp didn't take it well and threatened to kill them both. I was shocked to hear the name, Tiki Boyd, who's now in the Federal Witness Protection Program for helping F. B. I. director, Lisa Cohen crack a major drug case. Chloe passed that information on to Lt. Friday earlier in the day and he's checking it out. Rachel informed me that Scarlet is back in town.
After finally leaving Rachel's place I went home alone and finished up this column for the week adding a few goodies. I understand that Jesse Miller took Angel Jones to see "Killing Me Softly" at an adult theater were you get to see the uncensored versions. Very cool. Bridget Martin stumbled on James Wilson and Emily Addison in the JFK airport bar to learn that Emily had been there to send Anne Heche off. What's happening there?
Entertainment
This Wednesday night, May 10th at 10:00 pm ET, the Off-Broadway Creative Arts Theatre will be offering Rachel Tatellio's version of Will & Grace - Will & Dogs. It should be fun and I will be sitting in my center seat in the back row watching to see who might show up and who sits with whom, unless Rachel once again needs me in the cast.
