Celebutantes
Have you heard about the new book, Celebutantes? It is written by Amanda Goldberg, the daughter of producer Leonard Goldberg, and Ruthanna Khalighi Hopper, Dennis Hoppers’ daughter. The story is about Lola Santisi, a 26 year-old member of Hollywood Royalty (Papa’s vying for Best Director Oscar #2 and Mom’s a fixture at The Ivy). Without a kingdom–or even a condo–to call her own, Lola suffers from twin afflictions: Actorholism (a fatal addiction to dating hunky actors) and CDD (Career Deficit Disorder, an epidemic among children of Hollywood Royalty). Her latest gig as a Hollywood Ambassador means she’s been engaging in LA’s cruelest blood sport: convincing celebrities to wear her designer’s gowns to the Oscars.
Lola’s first best friend is Kate, a Hollywood talent agent desperate to go from unter to über, whether we’re talking sex, work, or both. Lola’s other BFF is Cricket, a struggling model/actress looking to surpass her role as a coma victim on Grey’s Anatomy.
Together they dodge fashion roadkill while navigating the GM Fashion Show, the Gagosian dinner at Mr. Chow, Barry Diller and Diane von Furstenberg’s pre-Oscar picnic, Ed Limato’s chic soiree, and more–until ultimately they end their week at the über-exclusive Vanity Fair Oscar party. But who will be left standing in her stilettos as the sun rises at Patrick Whitesell’s even more exclusive after after Oscar party?
