Lizzie Grubman and Chris Stern Request That You Save the Date
We hear that phone calls went around today asking friends and family of PR dominatrix Lizzie Grubman and her fresh kill, fiance Chris Stern, to make a special place on their calendars for March 18th.

Destino: Justin Timberlake Was Not Our Waiter
Exactly what you want to look at while you eat.
We don't do restaurant reviews — unless it's a celebrity restaurant (oh, NYLA, we miss you so!). So last night we decided to don our crazypants and hit Destino, the new Italian restaurant at 50th and 1st Avenue. No, we didn't go for the food, even though Rao's Mario…
Gossip Roundup: At Least She Didn't Dangle the Baby Off the Balcony

Flackwatch: Grubman and Cheban Break Up
Breaking (or, er, broken): Publicist Lizzie Grubman and the little climber that could, Jonathan Cheban, have euthanized their Grubman-Cheban PR project and parted ways. This is only mildly surprising, given the buzz that Her Grubness was less than thrilled to find that Cheban, who doubles as an Access Hollywood…
Morning Link Dump: Random Shit We Meant to Point Out Earlier but Didn't
• As a semi-anonymous blogger, there are plenty of ways to "out" yourself. Doing so by letting the Post profile you as a Dinner Whore — a single woman who casually goes on expensive dinner dates with anyone who can pay for a gourmet meal — is not, perhaps, the best option. We liked you better when we didn't know who…
Gossip Roundup: Lizzie Grubman and the Rib That Time Forgot
• It's been almost 5 years since publicist Lizzie Grubman mowed over 16 people at the Hamptons' Conscience Point Inn, but she's still doing her time in court.

Not Much to Say About George Wayne's New Nightspot
Vanity Fair's big, gay butterfly George Wayne is opening a new Chelsea club called Boudoir — which we expect will either last two weeks or two months, depending on the social calendar. During his sit-down interview with New York (and we are, admittedly, ALL OVER this week's issue), accompanied by Her Flackiness…

Kurt Vonnegut, Noam Chomsky, Jane Goodall, Walter Cronkite, Daniel Libeskind and...Lizzie Grubman?

Gossip Roundup: Courtney Love, This Is Your Cracky Life
• Courtney Love's mother, Linda Carroll, is selling out her pill-popping daughter in a tell-all book. None too surprisingly, we learn that Courtney took psychedelics at age 4, was in therapy at age 6, discovered porn at 9 and booze at 12. Who knew the hooch would come last? [Page Six]

On the Matter of Lizzie Grubman's Ladyflower
Last week, we received a verrrrry disturbing photo of 80s wrestling star Hulk Hogan carrying publicist Lizzie Grubman. It wasn't the mere image of Grubman nor the proof that the Hulk was still alive and well that made us feel nauseated; rather, it was the angle at which the photograph was taken, providing an…
