OSCAR WEEK RE-CAP

Hello world and welcome to Markus is the Drug. This week has been a crazy party week. So I've been a little slow pumping out the dish. Oops! So let me share with you some of the highlights in my week starting with Tuesday. Ferras played an amazing show at the Viper Room. If you haven't heard Ferras' music yet I suggest you give his MySpace page a visit. Trust me, you wont be disappointed.



Wednesday
W Magazine Celebrates The Academy Awards at the Sunset Towers. This particular party was great because I ran into a lot of my New York crowd. It just seemed to be the perfect kick off to what was going to be a crazy fun Oscar week. Chateau Marmont was the last stop and for good reason. You didn't need to go anywhere else. Ample amounts of champagne and a chocolate fountain is all I need for a party. Oh yes and a lil Karlifornia. Yes y'all I ran into my favorite MTV host Karli. Who busted some crazy Beyonce style dance move with Adrian Grenier.


Thursday
Art of Elysium party at the Beverly Hills Hotel. This was my kind of party. 1940's Old Hollywood. The Stars went all out (and how could you not). Among my favorites were:

Demi Moore looking very old Hollywood Glam in this amazing Roberto Cavalli gown


Kate Hudson in Christian Dior a satin, off-the-shoulder gown but the hair I wasn't too crazy about;

Charlize Theron was breath taking in this sheer Christian Dior gown with just a simple amount of jewelry...she looked Divine;


Rumer Willis, in what was my favorite dress of the evening, was wearing her favorite, J Mendel, and looked beautiful.

Some looks I really didn't care for though:


Rachel Zoe scares me and that's all I have to say about that;


Molly Sims let me down with this bad Katy Rodriguez Dress;

Salma Hayek bored me with this Alexander McQueen dress and a bad necklace, which I'm sure she only wore because it was free. That's all about that night. You're Welcome.

Friday Night
This was my big hang out night with fellow hero... Shaaaannoooon. We went to Teddy's. Nothing too crazy and at this point my liver is like, not one more ounce to drink. Eeeks! Sorry liver.

Saturday
I really wanted to rest this night but my friend Director Andrew Gallery called and said that he wanted to get a table at Green Door I said OK well maybe one or two drinks. Ha Ha four bottles later and a quick last minute stop at Hyde turned into a headache for Markus in the morning.

Finally... Oscar Sunday
Yes the big day was here but oh no, I really over did it the night before. So I knew the day was going to be rough. I sent out an SOS to Shannon who really turned out to be the hero of the day when she rescued me and took me to lunch at my favorite Joan's on Third. After a quick and much needed bite to eat I went back to bed for a quick re-coop session. 7:30, Jared Craft texts "Chateau Marmont 8pm". I dash to my closet for a tuxedo jacket and a bow tie. Yes I'm ready! We didn't stay at the Chateau long because we quickly made our way over to the Mercedes-Benz Oscar party at the Four Seasons. That's where I bumped into, for like the 10th time this week, my new favorite New Yorker Josh Katz.

You know where we went next. HYYYYYYYYYDE! I even tricked, I mean begged, Katy P to come meet me and she did and then we did and we left to meet our very very good friend Mia Moretti who was having a celebration of her own. Her birthday that is. It didn't take me long to realize I jumped on that party train about 45 minutes to late. Oops. Did someone say Prince was having a Party? Yes Please! So off to what seemed like the Oregon Trail up to Prince's house. Now this was the party y'all. First Stevie Wonder performed and then Prince. Hello it was Prince! This was really a special night. My mom tells this story about twenty years ago she went to see Prince in concert in Oakland and he threw his drumstick out in to the crowd and she caught it. He didn't throw his drum stick but he did throw and amazing party. Everyone was there...

P Diddy, Jeremy Piven, Orlando Bloom, Javier Bardem, Rumer Willis, Rosario Dawson and even the Hyde gatekeepers Jen Rosero and Pamela Francesca made it out to enjoy Prince.

And now Promises...

LINDSAY LOHAN " NO ONE TAKES ME SERIOUSLY AS AN ACTRESS"

Rumor has it that LiLo didn't get a single Oscar after party invitation.

“She’d rather stay at home - and feels no one takes her seriously as an actress anyway,” according to a published report.

That's so not true because I watched Georgia Rules three times in my hotel room in San Diego. I just noticed all the coke on the knife she has in her mouth. right?

If that isn't some shit y'all then I don't know what is. Stay tuned, as this could be an interesting addition to the Barrymore Dynasty, dontcha think?

VANITY FAIR HASN'T STOPPED ALL ITS PARTIES ...

Yes its still true y'all, the famous Vanity Fair Oscar party was cancelled, but it has not stopped VF from celebrating their new March 2008 issue featuring "10 Fresh Faces of 2008". The Celebration was thrown at the very new hot spot Bond St. in the Thompson Hotel. The gathering was small and intimate. Flower child Katy Perry showed up with stylist Jessica Pastor who put Katy in a very sexy, very tight Christian Dior By Galliano Dress that accentuated all the right details. I also took noticed of the very beautiful always done up Dita Von Teese and classy America Ferrera. After all the hugs and handshakes we followed hotel owner Jason Pomeranc up to the 2nd floor for some dinner and drinks. I recommend getting the steak skewers, and for dessert the fondue and ice cream are out of control. You're welcome!

COVER STORY...

Tyra Banks looks fierce on the cover of Entertainment Weekly's February 2008 issue. EW Reports- The statuesque beauty holding court in front of her studio audience on a recent January morning in New York City is ready for anything. And that's good, because Tyra Banks' fans do not hold back. Demands one woman, ''Is it true you moved your show to New York for a man?'' Banks, styled in a formfitting white dress, breezily rejects the claim that the relocation of her eponymous talk show — and her hit reality show, America's Next Top Model — has anything to do with her love life. The young crowd is primed with energy; hands shoot up and down like the critters in a Whac-a-Mole booth. To them, Banks isn't some inaccessible celebrity — she's their girlfriend, their incredibly cool older sister, their BFF. A pale brunette stands and asks, ''Can I get a hug?'' Banks assents, but not without commanding, ''You have to hug me fiercely, though.''

TELENOVELAS THAT MAKE YOU WANT TO VOTE...

La Pasion De La Decision Episode 1

Interesting approach to get Latinos to vote. I like it. It's also good to see these big name actors poke fun at themselves for a good cause. It is so great to see a young actress like Rosario Dawson really attempt to bring recognition to many facets of our national and global issues such as voting and AIDS awareness; wish more celebrities could use their fame like that.

FERRAS ON THE TODAY SHOW...

by Pierre Baltadano and Markus Molinari

We woke up early today and waited in great anticipation for Ferras' performance on The Today Show with Matt Lauer and Meredith Viera. He gave an inspired and chilling performance of Hollywood Is Not America that will no doubt launch this amazingly talented singer/songwriter into the hearts of the universe. "The name is Ferras. If you don't know it, you will."

Good job Ferrasito!

...SATURDAY... SUNDAY ...

OK this is going to be a little shorter; you get the gist of the weekend right? Pump pump, pump!. Saturday group dinner at Casa Vega in Studio City. Thomas and I left the valley and went to Hollywood to rescue my girl Golden and friend Rainier we made a quick stop at Goa. This is not usually my cup of tea. Too much Hollywood. Believe it or not I can only handle so much of "the scene" but handle it I did. I always enjoy my small but deep talks with Golden. Oh I did run into Matt Dallas but quickly lost him in the crowd. Rumor has it Lindsey Lohan got a hold of him and would not let go. You're welcome Lindsey.



Grammy Awards Sunday Started off with Mia and I having breakfast at the Beachwood cafe. Then after we had an afternoon of internet nothingness/research, we got ready for our first party. We decided to hit up Warner Brothers first and we had amazing timing because just as we arrived JGro was just finishing up red carpet. As we did a few Champagne laps we ran into Katy Perry and Dr.Luke... We always do. Next party. Sony at the Beverly Hills Hotel. This was the party to be at: Clive Davis, Beyonce, John Mayer, etc. So after Mia hit up every buffet table we decided 1:15am would be a perfect time to go to Hyde. Hyde was packed but not super annoying. Janet showed up to dance with her man Jermaine Dupree. Very cute! She's taller then him. Last stop. Oh we picked up someone at Hyde, my friend Simon, and it was off to the Thompson Hotel in Beverly Hills. We arrived just in time to see Avril Lavigne stumbling out. When we got to the suite it took about 3 name drops before they let us in the small room. Soon after arriving, Paris arrived. I'm sure none to impressed with the size of the room she had us all leave to the next party. But I thought that would be pushing it to the edge so I called it a night.

...FRIDAY...

Started off with me styling Ferras for a Pre-Grammy party night. He wore a Ted Baker suit, white Versace button up, Silver thin Chanel tie, Black D&G dress shoes. Me, I stuck to my favorite blue velvet vintage Yves Saint Laurent jacket, white V-neck shirt, black skinny jeans, and patent leather dress shoes. Oh hey. So off we went to our first party stop, the AAM party at Paramount. Mostly industry but we met up with Katy Perry, Dr.Luke, and Mia Moretti. Did the rounds of saying hello then Dr.Luke generously gave us his limo to take to the Mark Ronson party at the Roosevelt in Hollywood. After Mark played a great show he had the party moved over to Teddy’s were his sister Samantha Ronson was DJing. Teddy’s was a blast and it didn’t take long for Mark to take over the turntables. Yesss.

CONGRATULATIONS TO MARK RONSON ON HIS THREE GRAMMY WINS ...

PLANS FOR FRI, SAT, SUN...

Children, I'm sure y'all have noticed my lack of blogging this weekend but this social whore had to make the rounds. Thursday I took Golden Brooks to a tastemakers listening party for Ferras where we were witness to an emotional, tearful, and enthralling performance. Then it was off to dinner at Katsuya in Hollywood where Golden ran into "Girlfriends" castmate and friend Tracey Ross. After being mauled by the Paparazzi we scooted over to the In Style party at BLVD 3 but just for a quick pump around because we had to make it to the Katy Perry show at the Viper Room. The LA Times review on Katy's show:



...it was impossible to deny the charisma and chops of L.A.-based Katy Perry on Thursday night at a very packed Viper Room. A musical diarist in the vein of January's diva-of-the-month, Kate Nash, Perry infuses her boyfriend-bending pop with plenty of bite and, for her age (22), a healthy dose of self-awareness. The Santa Barbara native will have a lot of appeal among the teen masses -- and maybe among those whose attention spans run longer than your average text message.

That's my girl! So back to the Friday, oh no this was all Thursday night, ish. So Golden didn't make it to the show but dropped me off but I did find my other partner in crime, Matt Dallas.



Matt and I kidnapped Katy P from everyone and went back to the In Style party, oh vay!. There I ran into Shelter's Trevor Wright and Summerland cast mate Jesse McCartney who told me he was just about to record his first video, with Shawn Kingston, for his new album. Next stop, Hyde, for its 80's Thursdays y'all. That was not the last stop because DJ Group E./Mia Moretti was spinnin it over at S Bar. So bam! S Bar it was. That’s where we lost Matt Dallas but Katy and I wanted to keep the party going, keep in mind this was the first time we had seen each other in person in weeks. So we hailed a taxi and blazed it to a house party in the hills.



Not done yet, we ended the night at James Valentine's house. Mark Ronson, James V., and a few more other people I dare not say their names (only because I don’t remember them). Hehe. So after the boys played and "jammed" we traveled down the hill to the Chateau Marmont where, now Grammy winner, Mark Ronson was staying. Mark made sure I had everything I needed: pillow? Check. Comfy couch? Check. Water? Check. Blanket? Check. BBC's Doctor Who? check. I was all set. He's so hospitable. So that was my Friday... I mean Thursday. I’m afraid to start Fridays post.
