• Madonna's backup dancers haven't been making friends at the Bryant Park Hotel. Reports a staffer: "They are presumptuous and cheap. Nearly every one of them have stiffed their bellman and servers, and what's worse is they have tons of stuff." [P6]
• The situations continues to deteriorate for Lindsay Lohan: She's…

Young tomcat scenster Liam McMullan (son of photographer Patrick) is officially off the party market. Well, at least where romance is concerned. The little lad (he's 21) is engaged to his girlfriend Aesha Waks after a month-long courtship.

• And you were thinking Naomi Campbell was devoid of sympathy and compassion. The supermodel has been all over Mumbai's Lakmé Fashion Week, where she's raising money for victims of last year's terrorist attacks. [SF]
• Vera Wang's Lavender label may be in trouble now that Bergdorf Goodman and Saks Fifth Avenue…

Guests at the Tribeca Ball included Liev Schreiber, Justin Timberlake, and event co-chair Eileen Guggenheim (left), along with Bill Clinton, Andre Balazs, Andy and Kate Spade, Adam Weinberg, Jason…

We were hoping for an epic pratfall from Page Six mag's newest columnist Liam, 20-year-old stoner son of society photog Patrick McMullan—who replaced dimwitted model/publishing heiress Lydia Hearst after she quit in a backstage drama. Sadly (for us), young Liam's "Scenester Diaries" are slightly more coherent than…

Now that modelheiress Lydia Hearst has quit her Pulitzer-worthy Page Six magazine column in an "I didn't write that" snafu concerning alleged criticism of her family's publishing empire, they've been on the hunt for a new—and hopefully equally vapid—kid kolumnist. Who's been chosen to top Lydia's "I just bought…

A replacement has been named for Lydia Hearst, who stepped down as a Page Six magazine columnist last week after slamming her family's media empire (and then improbably accusing the mag's editors of fabricating the column). It's professional socializer Liam McMullan, the son of nightlife photog Patrick McMullan and …

♦ At Betsey Johnson, the front row—Kelly Osbourne, Perry Farrell, Miss J Alexander, Bow Wow, Ugly Betty's Mark Indelicato, Jason Lewis, Mickey Boardman, Lynn Yaeger, and Patrick McMullan—sat at little tables festooned with frosted cupcakes and lollipops for a Peter Pan-themed show in which Liam McMullan played a…

[Liam McMullan, son of photographer Patrick, parties this weekend while wearing aspiring socialite Emily Brill's sunglasses. Brill said of the party: "I thoroughly enjoy parties during which people a) actually dance and b) wear sunglasses at night and c) know that there isn't someone skulking around from Gawker or the…
