The 20-lb. swag bag

The celebrities: Psy and Barbra Streisand are the latest additions to the list of stars attending D.C.’s “nerd prom” as guests of the media.

The triumph of fluff over substance.

Up to now, performers had the Oscars, the Grammys, the Tonys.

The White House Correspondents now have theirs: The Swaggies: all the swag & swagger they can fit under one roof in one night.

But! But!
Leave The White House Whorespondents’ Dinner And Integrity Yard Sale Alone!

White House Actors’ Dinner?

One question:
If it’s called the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, why is Politico featuring actors in nearly all their photos? Even Bob Schieffer had to have an actress by his side.

Arianna goes on a snit

Wednesday, April 14th, 2010

because her website got only one table at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner:
Arianna huffs about overbooked celebs at WHCD

Being a new member to the White House Correspondents Association, this is the first year the Internet news site will have presence at the dinner.

Huffington asked for three tables, and on the assumption that her wish would be granted, invited 14 celebrity guests in advance, but only got one table.

If Zsa-Zsa ain’t happy, ain’t nobody happy.

What does a girl have to do in this town to get her way??
