September 16 – It’s always feast or famine, and right now we’re stuffed. Smack in the middle of Fashion Week, and a few days after his wife, Marie Claudinette, showed her clothing line, Wyclef Jean celebrated his new album, The Preacher's Son. Music industry legend Clive Davis co-hosted the party, Patti Labelle joined Wyclef in song, and a bunch of notables were in the audience. Why they couldn’t do it at the Bryant Park tents is beyond us, (or better yet, next week).

Sophia Loren went easier on us, screening her 100th film at the Bryant Park Hotel, directly across the street from the tents. (In fact, Narciso Rodriguez stepped out of a limo, staring confusedly at the crowd of paparazzi that should have been waiting for his fashion show. We’ll be right over, Narciso.) Anyway, Sophia’s 100th film, Between Strangers, marks the directorial debut of her son, Edoardo Ponti. Loren, dressed simply in a suit with a diamond necklace, looks incredible at 70. Must be that red wine thing we’re always hearing about.

The same evening, Woody Allen’s newest, Anything Else, premiered with stars Christina Ricci, Jason Biggs, Stockard Channing and Danny DeVito on hand. Sam Rockwell, George Stephanopoulos, Anh Duong and Isaac Mizrahi all skipped the Narciso Rodriguez show to be there.
