The Insider's Guide To The Tribeca Film Festival

Forget the movies. As any veteran festival goer knows, all the work is done at the parties, where film industry players swap their views on movies nobody has seen. Robert De Niro's Tribeca Film Festival—a recent and upscale addition to the movie maker's annual peregrination which starts this week—is no different. The party timetable is usually a closely guarded document, passed around in email with a strict injunction against sharing with the hoi polloi. Here's what we think of that. First, the grid; then, below, the list of publicists you need to bully or cajole.

Gay Book Party Turns Surprisingly Catty!

The anthology Girls Who Like Boys Who Like Boys—about gays and the girls who love them— was feted last night at a Midtown East bar, one of those places that you go to after your long, hard day working as a commodities trader, unbutton an extra button on your blue Oxford shirt, and drink yourself into a stupor. And if you're lucky, maybe grope a skank or three. What an odd place to have a party for the gays, as our photographer Nikola Tamindzic and I found out. More »

'Bachelor Party Confidential'

David Boyer's first book was about gay kids going to prom, so perhaps it makes sense that his second is about the ultimate straight-man fantasy, the bachelor party. But one with very distinct homoerotic overtones, let's not forget! Last evening, Doree and photographer Nikola Tamindzic braved the sleaze of the Pussycat Lounge to see what Bachelor Party Confidential was all about. More »

The 'Paris Review' Revel 2007

Doree and Nikola headed to the Puck Building last night for a Paris Review fundraiser. Their account, and photos, follow.
There are certain ways that one announces one's place in the social pecking order. Dalton or Spence. Summers in Nantucket, winters in Palm Beach. Really all out is the board of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. For those truly interested in becoming a part of the literary establishment, there is the Paris Review and its annual gala. Most parties for the quarterly literary journal take place at its offices in Tribeca and are generally attended by the expected assortment of nattily attired lower-level publishing types and a couple of famous writers enticed by the free drinks or the comely assistants who drink too many of them. But the Revel, as the annual benefit is called, is an entirely different animal. Tickets started at $500 and one was welcome to purchase a table for $50,000, which is the annual salary of two assistants. More »

Sante D'Orazio Understands Models

Fashion photographer Sante D'Orazio looks a lot like a late-in-life Dustin Hoffman all kitted out as a 70s Miami hustler. The buttons on his shirt rarely make it north of his solar plexus. And yet, he is almost always surrounded by naked models. His latest book, KatLick School, came out with its own party late last year. On Saturday night, at the just-opened second floor lounge of the Bowery Hotel, Sante's KatLick exhibition at the Stellan Holm Gallery was toasted. This kind of thing could go on forever, the book, the gallery show, the video game, the sudoku book. That the world likes to look at naked women isn't a secret, but it is Sante's secret to success. We brought our tape recorder to make this into an art project! More »

A Party: Diesel Sells The Tastemakers On 55DSL

Last night Doree and camera-man Nikola Tamindzic headed to deep Greenpoint for a party celebrating the opening of the Manhattan 55DSL store. (See how that works now?) 55DSL is Diesel's younger, cheaper line, and so they got a big yellow schoolbus to ferry people from the store over the water to Studio B, where they could revel in sharing the evening with hundreds of their closest friends who looked exactly like them and listen to the British band Klaxons do their dance-music thing. Nobody danced. They just stood around looking cool. Then they went back to Manhattan, where we hear that the after-party at Hiro Ballroom was "okay." The kids are so verbal.

Team Party Outing: The Ruff Club

The Ruff Club observed its first anniversary at The Annex on Friday night. Apparently it is a London-style "nu-rave" party. (It's all electroclash to us!) Our own Dr. Nightlife, Phil Oh, delivers the narrative captions, and Nikola Tamindzic provides the terrifying visuals. (His gallery is here, and ours is here). We can't believe what the kids are wearing today. (We couldn't believe it in Williamsburg in 1999 either!) More »

'New York' Mag's Oscar Party, Part Two

Our day-after breakdown of last evening's New York mag Oscar party at the Spotted Pig was so brutally detailed, we had to take a break and come back. In this second and final installment, the gals learn who Bill Hemmer is, discuss the spelling of former Jane editor Jauretsi Saizarbitoria's name (she's pictured, sparklingly, at right), and contemplate using the Spotted Pig as an apartment.

Team Party RSVP: 'New York Magazine' Oscar Party @ The Spotted Pig


Last night, you watched the Oscars from your couch with a bucket of Cheez Things. Gawker editor Emily Gould and Gawker associate editor Doree Shafrir watched the Oscars at the Spotted Pig with people from reality TV and the bitchy queens of New York magazine, while Gawker photographer Nikola Tamindzic took lovely pix. Jealous much? Well, don't be: it was damn hard to see the show over all those people's heads. (Ooo, sort of a pun!) But Doree and Emily did make some fun new friends at the party, like ganja-toking socialite Arden Wohl (pictured above with a pregnant pal). And they even made it home in time to catch John Travolta's bizarre allusion to his queenliness. The first half of their epic postgame IM convo is after the jump. More »

See Amanda Lepore's Chest Not Quiver!


As exciting as still photos of Amanda Lepore and her incredibly firm chest may be, they lack the heaving frisson that video conveys. Fortunately, Gawker videographer Richard Blakeley was also on hand for last night's Heaven to Hell book signing and after party. Above, the signing itself. What follows is the afterparty video, at Plumm. It's like Blue States Lose come to life! (A modern Xanadu!) And now Amanda Lepore is banned. For the day. More »

Team Party Crash: David LaChapelle's 'Heaven to Hell'

Now that Britney and Lindsay have retired from crotch shots, it's time someone filled the unwanted nudity void. And who better to do so than incredibly overexposed trannie Amanda Lepore and her rock hard nipples? As punishment for their sins, we sent Intern Stephanie and the one-and-only Nikola Tamindzic to Taschen's SoHo store where photographer-music video director-celebrity loverboy David LaChapelle and his favorite shemale gal pal autographed copies of his most recent collection, Heaven to Hell.

Team Party Crash: "Reno 911!: Miami" Premiere @ Tribeca Cinemas Gallery

If we were even slightly lamer than we are, we would start this post by saying "Freeze! Put your hands in the air...if you LOVE Reno 911!" But we're not that lame. We, like, totally rule. So we won't say that. We'll just mention that it's not every day that someone makes a movie based on a TV show without at least having Ben Stiller or Owen Wilson involved, so we were very excited to see that Reno 911!: Miami, coming out this Friday, was completely Stillson free. It's also not every day that you get to see the host of Clean House walking down Miami beach in a Baywatch one-piece and a fat suit. Style Network, HOLLA! After the jump, Kate photographs the Tribeca Cinema Series screening of Reno 911!: Miami, and Gabriel Delahaye does not review the movie. More »

Team Party Crash: 'Because She Can' Book Party

Last night, Gawker photographer Nikola Tamindzic and Emily Gould hit Matt and Marisa Brown's luxe Soho loft—that's her on your left—to celebrate the publication of Gawker Book Club pick Because She Can, the roman a clef that's "not" about Judith Regan.

Fashion Week: Misshapes @ Don Hill's

For the third and final stop on the Saturday night fashion week party circuit, we were posed with the challenge of infiltrating the largely underage hipsterfest otherwise known as Misshapes at Don Hill's. Such an operation seemed daunting at first thought, but we were in so quickly that we couldn't wait to leave. (read: Editorial Assistant Heather spent more time hailing a cab outside than she did in the building itself, leaving Gawker snaparazzo Nikola Tamindzic to fly solo.) Enjoy our Misshapes album and Nikola's longer gallery here. More »

Fashion Week: Tracy Reese

Gawker editor Emily Gould joined forces with Gawker photographer Nikola Tamindzic for the first time ever — that's right, that is just how good Emily is at getting out of doing the "hard part" of her job — for Sunday's Tracy Reese show. After the jump, Emily divulges the gory details of her virgin voyage into fashion's hellmouth (turns out, she has something in common with models after all: she trips and falls on the runway, too!)
