On The Town With Linda Matlow by Linda Matlow / Pix International
GLAMOROUS
GALS & GUYS…
All ears were tuned
into comedian Tracey Ullman
and her son Johnny, who
shared the stage with his famous mom at this years Marshall Field’s
Glamorama-Us Nitely event, which was held at the Chicago Theatre. The night included an
impressive list of celebrities, fabulous fashions from top designers,
plus excellent performances from the British band Bond and Uncle Kracker.
The after party at the Field’s State Street store featured a
fabulous feast well worth the time spent waiting in line.
All eyes were on
actress Pamela Anderson who
was the last to arrive down the “green carpet” at the Chicago
Theatre wearing an eye-popping red dress. While strolling the carpet,
she stepped out of line to autograph the well-toned abs of a handsome
young fan, which was certainly a thrill for him. Don’t call him “Mr.
Ex-J-Lo” but Jennifer’s former hubby, Cris
Judd, attended the gala wearing an Yves
Saint Laurent suit, Michael
Douglas’ handsome son Cameron
Douglas was the celebrity record spinner cranking out the tunes
during the arrivals, which were hosted by Phillip
Bloch. Actresses Lauren Holly, Jordanna Brewster and Sarah Wynter were part of the event as well. The event raises money to support cancer research and the arts. CELEBS
GET “BURNED UP”…
The inaugural Old
Style/Murray Brothers’ Golf Invitational presented by APAC
Customer Services, Inc. drew a lot of celebrity friends to their three
day Chicago event. The summer bash –– hosted by actors Bill Murray, Joel Murray and brother Brian Doyle-Murray –– was held at the Marriott Hotel.
You could tell which
avid golfers participated in the scheduled events at St.Andrews Golf & County Club by their well sunburned faces.
Many cherry red cheeks and noses stood out against the earth tone decor
at the hotel!
Proceeds from the
golfing events benefitted the Housing
Opportunities and Maintenance
for the Elderly (H.O.M.E.) and the Juvenile
Diabetes Research Foundation–Illinois Chapter.
A few of the
celebrities in attendance were: Bill Dwyer, Christopher McDonald, Richard
Grieco, Chevy Chase, Billy Burnett and his son Billy
Jr., Kristy Swenson, Graham Greene, and Chris
Mulkey and his wife Karen
Landry. Rock artists Lisa Loeb and Dweezil Zappa
were also there and performed. TEEN
HEART-THROB HEATS UP HORMONES…
Singer/teen idol Aaron
Carter did a Back To School “meet ‘n’ greet” for his fans at Marshall
Field’s State Street store. The
line of Chicagoland teenagers stretched down the aisles, out the door
and quite a ways down Wabash Street.
Girls rode up and down the glass elevator near the autograph
signing area with “We love Aaron!” signs in view of the young pop star.
Teen hormones were in full gear as Aaron bestowed pairs of coveted tickets to his sold out House of Blues concert later that evening. The lucky girls chosen, seemed to be picked at random. ACTRESS
“LORDS” OVER CHICAGO’S MEN…
About 250 grown men
gave every excuse known to man to sneak over to Border’s Books and Music to get a chance to meet former adult film
star, Traci Lords.
She signed copies of her new book, “Underneath
It All,” at the Border’s Books & Music Michigan Avenue
store. SINISE
HAS “DESIGNS ON SPACE…
Actor Gary
Sinise, accompanied by his lovely actress/wife, Moira
Harris, were in attendance at the Chicago
Art Institute for the opening of the “Aerospace
Design” exhibition.
The celebrated
actor/director gave the keynote address for the exhibit which will run
through February 8, 2004.
