Last Sunday--Oscar Night--I was invited to the Out In Television and Film Oscars Viewing Party and Fundraiser at East West Lounge in West Hollywood, hosted by Linda Simpson and Jesse Archer and it was benefiting the Ali Forney Center. It may not be the Elton John or Madonna-and-Demi Bash--but it was fun nonetheless! Richard Morales invited and of course, i wanted to stop by and support!As my date (David had to stay home and do his Who-Wore-What Live Oscars Red Carpet Blogging for my blog here!), I brought my buddy, Marc Jacobs "L.A. Boy-toy" John Wade. We had a blast hanging out and watching all the awards madness.
Eduardo Xol from ABC's Extreme Makeover: Home EditionThe place was packed with people enjoying all the yummy cocktails and hors d'oeuvres. I spotted ABC's Extreme Makeover: Home Editon" Landscaping expert Eduardo Xol, who was part of the same Sears Wish-Story Holiday Commercial/Ad Campaign I was a part of.
I was also excited to finally meet fellow Project Runway Alumn (and FIDM Graduate), Johnny Sakalis, of Season 6. He was extremely sweet, considering all the mean things I said about him back when I was doing my recaps for MyLifetime.com. We bonded over--what else--Project Runway, dish on fellow contestants, being Greek (me half) but not speaking it fluently, amongst other things. All in all, I had a blast hanging out with my Project Runway "sisters"!
