Seems like the Hotel Chelsea residents have long been at battle with the clubs that open in the basement of the building. This used to be the case with Serena (which was owned by Anna Wintour's stepson/Minnie Driver's cousin) and now with Star Lounge (which has opened in its place). The basement lounges seem to draw a posh crowd that's the antithesis of who the Hotel was founded upon: starving (or at the very least, quirky) artists.

This is where Gothamist tells you what tickets to buy...before they sell out and you are left bargaining on Craigslist.
Was it wrong for Gothamist to hope, when hearing that there was an MTV Bash for Carson Daly, the act of Carson being bashed on the head with something heavy would involved somehow? But, damn it, he was on the Today show this morning, discussing his roast. It actually looked some funny, as Jennifer Love Hewitt apparently has a moment and if there's anything Gothamist admires, it's when someone dumps the other person via press release or on someone's talk show, the way JLH did on Howard Stern. (Although when Matt Damon dumped Minnie Driver on Oprah, he just seemed a cad; when JLH dumped Carson, it seemed like purposeful, positive shedding of dead weight.)
Madonna is going on be on Will & Grace, and Hilton and I discussed how Will & Grace pretty much sucks, except for Megan Mullally, aka Karen, and Sean Hayes, aka Jack. Gay joke, straight joke, sex joke, Grace-ugly-clothes joke, lather, rinse, repeat. And we hate it when they get too emotional - keep the comedy, folks, light, fizzy, silly, bawdy - no marriage or baby crap. Okay, sometimes Jack's kid is funny, but not as funny as Karen and Jack together.
