\"jennifer-lopez-puerto-rican-day-parade<\/a>New York: Stayed at the Sherry-Netherland<\/a>. It now has only 40 rooms that aren\u2019t condos. I always loved it. I think of it as the Manhattan version of the Chateau Marmont. Every classic Hollywood mogul & star stayed there.So private. It was a favorite of premiere ganglord, the real<\/em> Frank Costello. The <\/a>Copacabana<\/a>,\u00a0Costello\u2019s legendary personal playground was\u00a0around the corner. The hotel just reopened Cipriani\u2019s<\/a> in the tiny lobby. What a scene. On the day of the Puerto Rican Day Parade<\/a> we stayed in & watched from our air-conditioned aerie. The sound-proofed rooms were silent until the parade broke the barrier. I must say the parade was sorely lacking in creativity. They had major star power in a dressed-down J-Lo shaking her iconic booty, but there was not one\u00a0interesting float. All it takes is some effort, paper & paint–creativity doesn’t take money. The waste management firms were out afterward, in full force, working “golden time” on clean up. Dined at Elaine’s, Caf\u00e9 Boulud<\/a>, Bette, Elio\u2019s, Wallse, & a lot of lunches at Cipriani\u2019s. NIX to Nello & their outrageously priced pasta. Loved the Neue Gallery<\/a>–the privately-sponsored museum started by the Lauder cosmetics family. It\u2019s in a glorious 1914 mansion on 86th & 5th. The show was fantastic: Van Gogh & many of his contemporaries. Small, intimate & brilliantly curated. Of course, the famous Klimt the museum recently bought was prominently featured. Even the gift shop & cafe’ are of superior quality. <\/p>\n

\"Cartier<\/a>In Paris, a small group of original rock innovators were invited by the head of Cartier, Dominique-Alain Perrin<\/a>, to attend the opening of the Rock n\u2019 Roll 39-59 exhibit at the Cartier Foundation Museum. Arrived a week early to ease jet lag & hang out. We saw friends & went to the most beautiful restaurants: Art Deco–Chez Prunier and Le Boeuf s\u00fbr le Toit; in the arcade overlooking the Louvre, lunch at Caf\u00e9 Marly<\/a> w\/ the lovely Gabrielle Lazure<\/a>\"Little<\/a>.The opening at the Cartier Foundation Museum<\/a> was great. Perrin is a cool guy, like a big-thinking American who has a passion for this music. He wants to do shows that aren\u2019t just painting or sculpture and has already represented other forms w\/ Enzo Ferrari & Jean-Paul Gaultier shows. Bravo<\/em> Perrin. At the dinner party in the verdant museum garden, the magnificent Tina Turner was seated across the table and we chatted. WOW.
\nAfter dinner Little Richard<\/a> put on a kick-ass show for an hr. & 1\/2 ! He looked & sounded incredible—& what a band.
\nBack to LA. I was dining on the sidewalk at La Luna in Larchmont when a tiny impeccable man came over & started talking to some ladies next to me. It was Jack LaLanne<\/a>, who has to be ninety-something. He not only looked unbelievably great, he has all his marbles. Bravo to the Power Juicer<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
