Alice Tully Hall is NOT across the street from the Metropolitan Opera House. That would be Avery Fisher Hall. ATH is about a block and a half away and half the size, so Mischa was extra-confused.
@FormerEnglishMajor: P.S. Avery Fisher Hall is actually at a right angle to the Metropolitan Opera House, and both facilities are in the "center" of Lincoln Center's pedestrian area and face Josie Robertson Plaza. Alice Tully Hall is truly just across the street--West 65th Street, specifically--from the opera house, though the low-lying Beaumont and Newhouse Theaters nestle on the Met's north side. (I'm not sure how you would calculate a block-and-a-half's distance between the opera house and Tully, unless you started from the Met's northwest corner).
Mischa may have had other problems recently, but her land navigation skills are okay in this case.

@The Lone Scout: I cannot even address the joke...! But Alice Tully is pretty far from the Met Opera. You have to walk that whole plaza to get to the Opera entrance. You either go all the way down to the front and walk the whole plaza, or go down 65th and up the stairs, etc. - it's not close. She just saw a crowd and hopped out of the cab, pretty much.
@FormerEnglishMajor: I've worked there and, granted, there's more than a stone's throw from Tully to the Met. But the post does state that Mischa "booked it across the street" from Tully, so conceivably she dashed across 65th and the plaza in time for curtain up at the Met (thanks to modern chemistry?).
@The Lone Scout: eh, probably had a box so maybe she didn't see the chandeliers rise. Though that probably would have looked good through the drugged haze.
Compact fluorescent lightbulbs are the bane of every female over the age of 19's existence. In the boudoir, give me a GE Soft White (in the closet, door partially closed) or one of those solar eclipse boxes with the pin prick to let in light. Otherwise, you might as well line my bed with satin curtains and give it brass handles.
What evil nicknames will Joe Dolce coin for Miss Mills, with the help of his bitchy boy friend Jonathan Burnham, of course? Flys on the Wall, call Gawker!
@drunkexpatwriter: Every pop star who ends up with a dancer, it never works out. J-Lo did it, Aguilera did it. It's the only available penis when all you do is tour, though.
All will be shocked when during the climatic battle sequence Xenu exclaims "Your father, I am your father" before using his Theta Blaster to give Cruise a bad haircut.
Meanwhile Princess Katie will be flying by in the Scio-Copter fighting an army of well armed and angry psychiatrists who have encased Lady Oprha in carbonite in an attempt to sell her to the evil Harvey "The Hutt" Weinstein.
If you can't beat your hunting dog with a stick to make him drop the pheasant you just shot, there's no purpose to royalty anymore in this world. Just let the man swing. The world needs aristocrats.

Timberlake, K-Fed, Ghalib, etc... all look like they could have stepped right off the cover of Butt Magazine.
