Last night was Oceana’s 2008 Partners Award Gala held at the home of Jena and Michael King.  Trudie Styler, Sting and former President Bill Clinton were recognized for their work to help save our oceans.

Hostess Jena King and actress January Jones wore marine themed shades of blue (or green depending on your monitor settings)…trite but at least not black!  If I had a celeb-like body, I’d wear taxicab yellow every day of my life.  Do Hollywood women now fear color as much as they fear eating, aging and gravity?  In fairness, a couple ladies did trailblaze and branch out into the charcoal palette. 

This set of clips from Slick Willy’s appearance on The View — put together by a (disclosed) McCain/Palin supporter — is worth watching, because in the final minute and a half the former President says an awful lot of things that sound like a quiet endorsement for John McCain. Clinton says he’ll be voting for Obama, “because I’m a loyal Democrat,” but then proceeds to offer some unmitigated compliments to John McCain.

Interesting.

Brad Pitt and President Bill Clinton joined forces to help rebuild the 9th Ward in New Orleans.

They combined their foundations, Make it Right 9 and Clinton Global Initiative, to break ground on the rebuilding of homes that were affected by hurricane Katrina.

Nothing snarky to say. This is sweet.

From Page Six:

THE anticipated presence of Chelsea Clinton and her parents at an Oct. 27 wedding in Washington, D.C., has the planners in a tizzy. Chelsea’s childhood best friend, Nicole Davison, is marrying hedge-fund analyst Michael Fox. Chelsea, the maid of honor, will be there with her parents. Guests are being warned not to bother Bill and Hillary Clinton. When the ex-president hosted the couple’s engagement party at his Chappaqua home, some guests were told to be on their “best behavior” and avoid talking to the family about inappropriate topics.

Um, Bill Clinton? Will you please host my engagement party, too? I just think it would be fun. And expensive. I promise I’ll be nice to Chelsea and not make fun of her for having to spend her most awkward years in the White House.
