Every day is opening night.

“VENOM”

Ladies and gents,

I had planned a column full of summer entertaining tips just in time for the holiday weekend, but after the events of this morning I feel the need to jump to the defense of my good friend Mika Brzezinski after President (shudder) Trump’s cruel twitter tirade against her.

First, let me say this: Mika is ageless. I don’t care what pact with the devil she made or what portrait’s in her attic. She takes great care of herself and she drinks a ton of water. Anything that she has or hasn’t done, above and beyond that, I don’t care to ask or know about.

But more to the point, she is a hugely successful and extraordinarily talented television host. She is widely respected. She is generous. She is as smart as they come.

When I threw out my back a few years ago after a particularly grueling barre class, she had her acupuncturist make a
house call.

I love her and I will not have her disparaged by anyone, let alone our misogynistic moron-in-chief.
And while we’re on the subject of elective procedures, some information on the President’s scalp reduction surgery:

Tidbits from around town…
Spotted Broadway producers John Johnson and John Mara, Jr. chatting it up at the U2 concert at MetLife Stadium.
Witnessed Jordan Roth present Kate Burton with her Sardi’s portrait, as her Present Laughter co-stars cheered.
Caught Katie Holmes and Jamie Foxx out together and looking cozy at Dear Evan Hansen.

As always, a toast of something sparkling to you and yours!

Kisses,
