We look forward to attending the Classic every year and have done so for as long as I can recall, it is a family tradition.

Cohen And Vera Wang Richard Johnson And Sara Herbert-Galloway Chau-Giang Thi Nguyen (Cho-San) just told me that she and Brian Grazer are off to her home town Hanoi and a few other places for a whirlwind vacation. This busy Hollywood couple can use some R & R. Chau-Giang is a concert pianist and girlfriend of Academy Award winning producer Brian Grazer. She woo 'ed an elite crowd of 100 guests on June 14th as she performed her new piano compositions at Lincoln Center's Kaplan Hall. Chau-Giang took us on a beautiful musical journey as she performed a song she wrote for Allan Beeber, a friend of many audience members who recently passed away. Chau-Giang's talent as well as her humbleness were quite becoming. She looked like a princess in the stunning Valentino gown she chose to wear for her performance. ...

**** Our good friend and Times Square Gossip writer Sara Herbert Galloway was injured the other day by New York City Police negligence. The police barricades are always being put up for just about every event around New York City. They are always taken apart and left for anyone to trip over. I have ripped clothes, fallen down and all this because the police department is not doing their job. We have to put up with alot in New York City on a daily basis. They close streets with these barricades all the time. People get injured on a daily basis. We wonder how many lawsuits the city gets each year because the Police Department does not do their job right by removing these dangerous barricades. They just collapse them and throw them on the sidewalk. We will not show you the photos of Sara, they are too graphic. This beautiful person looks like she was beaten by a baseball bat. Shame on New York City for treating the people that pay taxes like they are garbage. Shame on New York City for l...

**** THE HAMPTONS SOCIAL CROWD'S BEST BUDDIES! **** Story By: Sara Herbert Galloway The HebertCollection **** Sharon Bush With Jean Shafiroff Kathy Hilton With Governor Paterson And Jay McInerney Anne And Daughter Amanda Hearst Anthony Kennedy Shriver’s charity, Best Buddies rode into town with a chic western ho’ down held at the Hamptons estate of Ann Hearst and Jay McInerney. The Hamptons social crowd tossed their Jimmy Choo’s aside for the evening to slip into cowboy boots and western attire. Everything was cowboy from the cuisine to the décor. One lovely guest wore a holster with guns, another gentlemen wore a white cowboy shirt trimmed in black with Rodeo written on the back. I complemented him on his fashionable rodeo shirt, he was quick to joke that it did not mean that he was a fan of the Rodeo, but of Rodeo Drive. I couldn’t help but agree with him.It is always a treat to spend time at the beautiful and eclectic home of Anne and Jay who are the most gracious host and host...
