The forecast
called for rain, but by the time Doris Bergman’s Valentine Romance
Oscar® Style Lounge and Party was in full swing at Fig & Olive in West
Hollywood - to honor the upcoming 88th
Annual Academy Awards, there was nothing but blue skies and stars. No, not the stars that twinkle in the sky. It
was the kind that twinkle on the red carpet.
One star after
another glided through the doors in celebration of the Oscars® and to partake
of the great gifts, great food, great drinks and great fellowship. Many contributed to the
Wednesday’s Child charity.
ERNIE HUDSON
Everywhere you
looked, there were celebrities. At one end of the room was actor Ernie Hudson
checking out NuBra, while Lou
Ferrigno tried on a coat by Samiah, Renee
Taylor and hubby Joe Bologna chatted up vendor Marisa Marshall about her My Saints, My Hero faith-based bracelets
and Keesha Sharp (The People vs. O.J.
Simpson) looked at some sexy lingerie.
