“I’ve got a crush over you!”
Beautiful boy. This is who he is, and those gents standing in front of me are just as beautiful. Then again we’re only at ‘CRUSH’ fanzine’s launch party, and the whole room is infatuated, making their way over, their...
A night out with Bergdorf Goodman. Bonne travaillez Joseph Scheer.
The real question of course was had one come to observe the magnificent work of Joseph Scheer or rather the beautiful people morphing on cool cucumber gin cocktails, the lilac dresses on display or just the wonderful banter that...
Wild Thangs. A night out with Macy Gray and Ariel Palitz at Sutra.
Tuesday night. A scallywag decked out in green with tequila coursing through his veins. A bar in the lower east side named after an ancient Indian text. Hip Hop music blasting all around, and Macy Gray enrapturing the crowds....
McMullan Transforms Greenhouse into Studio 54.
What better place for Patrick McMullan to hold his St. Patty’s bash than beneath an eco-friendly dome of green. A-list partygoers, trannies, models, and the icons of New York culminated Tuesday evening to celebrate in a scene reminiscent of...

Goodbye Armory; the Collective cool kids of Hardware celebrate…
Sunday night. A welcoming smile at an iron door, stairs leading to Erik Foss and Paul Sevigny’s Armory After Party at Collective Hardware, and the new cool kids holy land on Bowery. An addictive and entrancing vibe provoked us like a smoky...
Okay, we went to the Armory too, but are Galleries still relevant?
So last night was the last night of the Armory spectacle. To be clear we rather enjoyed the whole experience, the artists, the dealers, the meetings, the parties and the clever banter. Always the clever banter. Yet there was...
Sally Shan. More than just a Club Promoter?
It’s just after two in the morning and I’ve been ignoring the text on my phone all week when I finally capitulate. I’m walking up the stairs of a beehive of young kids, dwarfs, batman look a likes and...
