Dispatches from Sundance: Part I

Oh, what a day!

I forgot how much fun Sundance is.

My friend Courtney (my “film crew”) and I spent the day walking up and down Main Street, talking our way into assorted lounges and private parties.

We kicked things off at the Queer Lounge, sponsored by Absolut Vodka, where we had some amazing drinks (did you guys know they made pear vodka? It was news to me!) and enjoyed some wonderful LGBT company. The lounge was amazing — they had it decorated like we were inside an igloo or something. Very, very cool.

The we moved to the InTouch lounge, where we immediately spotted Simon Rex and Cisco Adler. I guess Simon Rex has a new album (!) and was handing it out to anyone who would take it.

One of the lucky recipient of the Simon Rex album was Method Man, who was super sweet to us and agreed to pose for a photo. He was also rocking those little sugar dippy sticks. I was like “Where did you get that???” and he was like “New York!” In these shots, you can see his yummy sugar sticks AND the Simon Rex album.

We also spotted Perez, blogging away (he’s so much more dedicated than I am!) and I made him take a photo with me. Perez is a much nicer person when you have a camera crew with you, let me tell you. :)

Then we moved on to the Delta 360 lounge, where we spotted Sandra Oh, but couldn’t get a shot with her. I did, however, get a demonstration of Delta’s new fully reclining seats, which were pretty cool.

After a brief stop at the Filmmakers lodge, we picked up our friends Jordan and Rebecca and headed off to the LRG/Whey Up Lounge at Shabu. We ran into DJ Irie, who was an absolutely sweetheart and took pictures with all of us. We’re actually heading off to hear him spin at the MySpace party in just a couple of hours.

Last but not least, we spotted Tom Arnold in the lounge. I’m not sure how to say this politely: he had done an awful lot of cocaine. However, he was polite enough to pause to take a photo with us.

We’re hitting up the parties tonight, so I’ll let you know what happens!

  • You are like the cutest thing ever! (So much cuter than damn Perez!) This is the first time I’ve seen a picture of you and I just love ya!!

  • Lose the hat Beet!

    Of course Perezie is nicer in front of a camera. He’s the biggest Media Whore of them all.

  • Perez is the worst. I hate her and her racist site. Evil Beet can I share that reclining seat with you? I used to see Method Man in Mr. Joe’s on 8th ave all the time.

  • Yes, you’re by far the cutest girl in any of your photos, celeb or not. Your revelation about Tom Arnold, combined with that photo, however, makes me just feel really bad for him. I don’t know why exactly. Maybe I’d feel bad for anyone who felt they had to do an “awful lot” of cocained during daytime hours, maybe to help build confidence? Or not. All I know is that looking at that photo of you, your two friends, and Tom makes me want to cry.

  • GORGEOUS girl you are!!! Yay, sooooo happy to finally see a pic of you!

    And I saw Method Man last night, in concert w/ the rest of WuTang…FUCKIN AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Method Man’s face was busted up from a fight right before & he was blazed out of his mind.

    SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO fun.
