This Week's Gossip
It was already ten o'clock last Sunday when Ben and I finally got up and shared the shower. He's certainly one delightful man. We dressed and drove over in the rain to Manhattan where we met Rachel Tatellio for brunch at the Palm Court.
Rachel said that Jon Bon Jovi's last concert was on Sunday in New Zealand and he'll be flying back ahead of the others on Monday. It seems she'll have her boyfriend around for at least two weeks before Jon heads off again.
Gino told me that Barbara Barton was at the Four Seasons last Saturday evening, dancing with her husband, Bradley. They left together early that night after he romanced her on the dance floor. Katie Donovan watched them and mumbled something about Barb not needing a divorce attorney after all. I do hope they enjoyed there evening.
Now the bad news. Later this week Barbara was back at the Four again, but this time alone. She actually danced with that Irish novelist, Seamus Clark, and was seen sharing a taxi with him when they left. Two days later I got a sneak peek at the synopsis of his romance novel prepared by Barbara where you can tell she's seriously impressed. Danger zone!! Buy the book if Barb can convince her hubby to publish it, I know I will.
Rachel was there alone chatting with Gino during Samantha's set on stage Monday night when Jon Bon Jovi walked in, looking tired and ragged after the long airplane flight from New Zealand. Rachel was thrilled to learn that Jon was taking her to Hawaii on Friday, where they would spend two nights at the Hyatt Regency Maui.
Not only that, since the Bellagio Casino in Vegas wants to schedule a tour stop with Jon, they offered him free rooms in the Hyatt Regency Phoenix and access for four to their luxury suite at the new University of Phoenix Stadium for the Super Bowl. As a favor, Jon offered Diego and I the opportunity to join them.
We'll get one of the rooms and be there on Friday so we can also attend several of the Super Bowl parties on Friday and Saturday night. Jon and Rachel will be flying back from Hawaii on Sunday, arriving just in time for us to pick them up and take them to the game.
Rachel and I have cleared things with Bobby Campbell so we can pose for Cody Duncan, the new photographer we met at the Four Seasons Supper Club. None of our photos can be sold to the magazines since we're under contract with Bobby, but Cody can use the photos to demonstrate his capabilities to the various magazine editors, like Carly Carpenter at Vogue and Nicole Andersen at InStyle.
Since we're avid New York Giants fans, we've all placed our bets on the Giants where we're getting a 12 point spread. Rachel says she has a private wager with Doni with only an eight and a half point spread since they have been betting on the games all season and are dead even going into the Super Bowl. This will be fun!
Entertainment
This Tuesday night, February 5th at 10:00 pm ET, the Off-Broadway Creative Arts Theatre will be offering Rachel Tatellio's version of Sex and the City - The Ballgame. I'll be there in case she needs me to cover a role.
