At the premiere of Madge's Malawi flick I Am Because We Are: The Euro-Detroit adoption machine Madonna ran into her friend Rosie O'Donnell, where, in the greenroom together backstage, "Rosie kept saying 'Mo Mo' to her Madgesty, which was very odd to those around them," said a spy. "The two are close, but there's no need for a pet nickname in public like that," quipped another onlooker. They can't be that close; Rosie skipped out before the flick started.
... At the L'Oreal party at Chinatown Brasserie: Jane Fonda bitching about "a lack of food" at the bash. Party-goers were exchanging hushed whispers about Barbarella's heinous treatment of the staff. "She was yelling and carrying on about how hungry she was and why couldn't they just bring her something," said a guest.
... At the Yahoo party: While his band The Wallflowers played, Jakob Dylan admitted even he knows he sucks to the gathered crowd. Pointing to a woman who declined an invitation to sing with him during the show, Dylan said, "She's sayin' she doesn't know how to sing. Well, miss, neither do I and look how far I've gotten." Yeah. How'd he get famous, anyway?
