I told you I know the beautiful people
Yup. That’s my good friend London May with Paris Hilton.
Quote from WorldOfWonder:
“The scene: The opening of the new ultraposh SLS Hotel in Beverly Hills. The time: 10:45PM, well after the 7:00 kick-off which included speeches by Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, nightlife impresario Sam Nazarian, and the hotel’s designer Philippe Starck; the party drew the likes of Jared Leto, Kate Hudson, Dylan McDermott, and Dash Mihok. The moment: Paris Hilton, who has a wing named after her at the new Children’s Hospital being built, stops her red carpet stroll to meet with London May, drummer for Millions of Dead Comps, who just so happens to also be an RN in pediatrics.”

My take on this? Beautiful people, for sure. But it’s a little disturbing to me, because I always thought Paris Hilton didn’t really exist. (Like I didn’t think Angelyne existed until I saw her stumbling past me on Hollywood Blvd, getting into her pink Corvette one night.) I thought Paris Hilton was a hologram based on focus groups and fairy dust, then output with with CGI bluescreen. But now I know someone who’s met her. And London is too smart to fall for that.
Unless….they’ve replaced London with an automoton. But I think I’ll be able to tell. I’ll ask him next time he’s over for dinner.

Hah. that’s awesome. Hey, speaking of London May, I forgot to tell you…. I bought a CD a few weeks ago that’s basically the Nightmare Before Christmas soundtrack reperformed by current hard rock bands like KoRn, Panic at the Disco, Fall Out Boy, etc. and the last track on the disc was by Tiger Army - I was all “hey, I know someone who was in that band!”

He’s awfully close to her in that pic. I hope he was tested for communicable diseases ASAP after!
