The star fuckers were out en force as near-octogenarian Barbara Walters displayed a range of emotions in a Manhattan courtroom testifying on behalf of her dead friend Brooke Astor.Babs got special treatment. The prosecutor didn't ask her age. We found out her middle name is Jill, and her first job was as a receptionist before she clawed her way to the top. There's Babs in a vintage Bill Blass suit.

The legendary newswoman's claws were out where she tried to grab a reporter's notebook outside the courtroom.
Former Washington Powerhunk Henry Kissinger (didn't Babs sleep with him back in the day?) also testified for the dead NY society doyenne. Kissinger came THISCLOSE to kissing cement after he tripped on the courthouse stairs.
Barbara was in a better mood later at Larry King's book party for his latest ghost-written tome "My Remarkable Journey" - laughing at Larry joking about his 40ish wife dying before he does.
Small world,
ReplyDeleteA friend of mine took that photo and posted it on his facebook page this morning. He's a free-lance photographer in NYC...
JTM: Who is the guy so I can give him credit?
ReplyDeleteHey Marty,
ReplyDeleteThe fellows name is Marc Hermann. He is a young fellow who dresses up kind of retro (wears a fedora, things like that) and always seems to take good photos of folks entering & leaving the NYC courts...
Thanks, JTM!
ReplyDeleteJTM..Sounds like you are describing Matt Drudge. Maybe this is the photo version. Wonder what she has in her mouth? Looks a bit unusual.
