From Miami to Milan
“Brad Pitt, I think, in Troy. That’s a beautiful man. There’s no denying it.”
– Jacob Elordi tells Jimmy Fallon his first celebrity crush. If you can’t place Jacob,
you’ll soon see him playing Elvis Presley in Sofia Coppola’s Priscilla.
I spent last week in Milan. Correction – I spent last weekEND in Milan. Yes, 48 hours in Italy. What can I say – it was an invitation that I couldn’t pass up, although I probably spent more time in the air than in Milan. But some things are worth traveling for. A few days earlier, I was part of a memorable lunch in Fort Lauderdale filled with a number of people I’ve known for over 25 years – including legendary drag divas Thirsty Burlington, Varla Jean Merman, Joe Posa, and Joanna James. We all started out as little club kids and all developed a level of notoriety that…well, defies defining. We don’t see each other as often as we used to, but these are people with whom I can pick up a conversation we started decades ago. Looking around that table, I felt terribly nostalgic for the people we were – and awfully proud of the people we’ve become. Let’s do it again….soon!
