Twinkle Toes

Published on September 20, 2007

THE SURREAL LIFETalk about ironic. Our week of fame fixation was capped off with a real, honest-to-god, celeb-packed soiree: People Magazine andEntertainment Tonight's Post Emmy Bash at the Walt Disney Concert Hall. Wowzee. From the Godiva chocolate "bar" to makeup and skin-care freebies to the clusterfuck of couture (and, of course, cameras), this one was a beautiful mess of excess. Duran Duran were the perfect choice to perform too. Hits like "Notorious," "Girls on Film" and "Wild Boys" were more than a little fitting for this diamond-drenched crowd, who really got down to the former heartthrobs. Actress Geri Ryan was right up front gyrating, and we spotted William H. Macy and wife Felicity Huffman rockin' to "The Reflex" too. At one point during DD's dance fest, the wing of some dude's Emmy (we didn't recognize him) actually got caught on our purse! Surreal. Though the star sightings at soirees like this are too numerous to even list, we did have a nice exchange with Tori Spelling and her hubby (whose Oxygen TV show coincidentally is produced by World of Wonder) and Entourage's Rex Lee. Both were almost as sweet as the Godivas.
