DKNY Draws Ali Larter, Rashida Jones
DKNY Draws Ali Larter, Rashida Jones
Wednesday night, Donna Karan New York hosted a Midtown Manhattan bash to celebrate the release of their new fragrance “DKNY Delicious Night.” And Ali Larter and Rashida Jones were among the Hollywood A-listers glamming it up.
With a glass of champagne in hand, the Heroes hottie gushed about her love of the Big Apple. “I’m so excited to be here in the city. I’m here with my girlfriends, and we’re going to have an amazing night. We’re going to have a great dinner at the Waverly (Inn) and drink champagne until dawn.”
When asked about her ideal NYC adventure, she replied, “The exact one I’m describing. That’s what we do. It’s not about dancing in nightclubs. It’s about having a great bottle of wine and great conversation. It’s a sexy city, and I’m excited to be here.”
Of her favorite activity in which to partake, Rashida Jones (currently working on both the Office and Unhitched) said, “Just walk around and make decisions as I’m walking of what to do. You can’t do that in L.A. People stare at you like you’re crazy. People don’t really walk. You sit on your (bottom) in the car all day long. It’s insane.”
Both Larter and Jones may be sitting on their collective bottom for awhile, along with the rest of those affected by the writer’s strike in the entertainment industry.
Ali told press, “It’s a very precarious time in Los Angeles. We can only shoot for a couple more days. It’s affected everyone, from our writers to our production assistants to craft service. You have to stand up for what you believe in, but the repercussions are — it’s just a difficult time for everyone.”
And Jones, whose new show doesn’t start filming until 2008, said that it’s tragic, even though it hasn’t put her out yet. “It’s affected so many of my friends. It’s only a couple of days in, and it’s a bummer. These people work so hard, and they’re the glue of the industry. They’re the reason the industry ticks, and to not give them the modicum of respect they deserve — it bums me out. I hope everyone comes to their senses.”

Britney Spears’ Messy OK! Interview Details
Britney Spears’ Messy OK! Interview Details
We’ve all been shocked at the circus that was Britney Spears’ interview/photo shoot with OK! Magazine. And the hits just keep on coming.
According to the peeps at OK!, Britney ordered fried chicken during her interview and kept wiping the grease on her designer dress. She also frequented the ladies room, neglecting to close the door behind her.
And it gets worse. Brit’s dog did some “floor decorating” that ended up soiling a $6700 Chanel gown. This led to a verbal protest from the stylist.
“I wasn’t in the room, but I was there to hear the upset shrieks of the stylist,” editor in chief Sarah Ivens said Wednesday. “Her assistant dealt with it in the end, after being asked to take care of it. They had to be asked to clear it up.”
At the end of the day, the magazine staff was frustrated beyond words. “What actually transpired on the day was a shock to us and left me and the whole crew feeling quite shocked and sad, really,” said one source.
One of the production assistants agreed. “I’ve never seen anything like it. It’s definitely the most bizarre shoot I’ve ever been on.”
