4. Spicy - June 18, 2007

That’s one of the dumbest things I have ever seen.

5. Maksim - June 18, 2007

Hysterical!

My goodness Karen Duffy has quite a thick neck, she looks like a wrestler.

6. Bea - June 18, 2007

THIS IS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE. I freaking LOVE THIS!

7. Bliss - June 18, 2007

Tinsley deserves an Oscar for her performance.

8. Bliss - June 18, 2007

Ahem, I also mean Johannes, too. ;-) HOT.

9. SF - June 18, 2007

That maid has the funniest expressions…he makes the video.

10. LUKE SKYWALKER - June 18, 2007

They all look good,but Tinz looked really hot.

11. gramercy - June 18, 2007

The Tinz does look best in it. Jen Creel = scary!!

12. Alec - June 18, 2007

Who needs Paris when you have Tinsley? This is so funny.

13. UESguy - June 18, 2007

RE+FUCKING+TARDED
this will go down as the girls BIGGEST regret of 2007

i won’t be able to hold it in next i see these girls, i’m embarassed for them — this is the best post ever, btdubs. more, please! now that you’re a NEW YORKer, i might actually enjoy this james boy.

14. Gretchen - June 18, 2007

Tinsley: “Number 3. He’s got a sweet ass.”

BEST LINE EVER. OK, honestly, I just about love these girls now.

15. tribeca - June 18, 2007

tinsley + cristina = sooooo gorge. i love them. tinz looks super glam. hell, even jen creel reminds me of jackie o gone ana!

16. NYCgirl - June 18, 2007

best video ever. tinsley = new lonelygirl15. i love it! this makes up for all the things she’s ever done seriously.

17. hair-ista - June 18, 2007

I know this is not a beauty forum, but I have to ask. Does anyone know how these ladies get their hair to fall in such perfect loose ringlets? I have tried hot rollers, but it does not quite work. Are they using double-barreled irons?

18. Insider - June 18, 2007

James, too funny….thanks for posting.

19. Bleeker Street - June 18, 2007

LMAO. I simply love it! Comic geniuses those Petersons. Tinsley and Jennifer are HILARIOUS in the video.

20. nancy princeton - June 18, 2007

I loved it. The material was just really good, super funny and so true (”nanny from Manilla” — LMAO). I didn’t think any one performance was particularly stellar though; they could have used random UES blondes to the same effect. Cristina is gorgeous, as always.

21. Serena - June 18, 2007

This is honestly the best looking I’ve seen Tinsley or Cristina. Tinsley’s lines are sooooooo funny. Am sooo sharing this. Soooooo loved this!

22. Mrs. C - June 18, 2007

Cute and funny - the girls should do more. This kinda reminds me of a PSA’s for the UES.

23. Jonz - June 18, 2007

LOVED IT! Too funny. Tinz looked gorgeous and was hilarious. You just know that chick burns up the sheets! Way to go, Tops!!! No wonder he puts up with her going out 24/7. You just know they’re swinging from the rafters when she IS home.

24. nancy princeton - June 18, 2007

It kills me when people (Jonz) try to suggest that Tinsley is some mad sex machine. I guess you think it’s flattery?

25. ship them - June 18, 2007

illegals? wow… thats nice. for all the shizz these people say about being pc they sure do know how to put thier best foot forward. tasteless.

26. nancy princeton - June 18, 2007

Who claims to be PC anymore? That is so 1998.

27. ee - June 18, 2007

that was funny. tinz looked hot.

28. ee - June 18, 2007

how does one get tix to the american friends of versailles ball?

29. Metro West - June 18, 2007

Top or Bottom? , Bliss , LUKE SKYWALKER , gramercy , tribeca , NYCgirl , Serena , Jonz , ee,

You must ALL be on the Mortimer payroll

1. Top or Botton - obviously a “bottom” gay man although I bet you list yourself as “versatile” - you thought Tinz was amazing? She had 4 words in this production “hes got a sweet ass”. I can see where you thought that was amazing since it’s something you have obviously said many times yourself. Cuckoo Club your favorite place to haunt?

2. Bliss - you thought Tinz deserved an Oscar for her performance? The line “hes got a sweet ass” is not worthy of anything more than a Burger King Crown. Would you like fries with that?

3. Luke Skywalker - you thought Tinz looked hot? I suppose there is always one in every crowd who thinks a bleached blonde with no talent, no skills and no socially redeeming value is hot, that must be you.

4.gramercy - Tinz looks best in it? With that tacky dress that resembles a tablecloth from the 50’s and her “day care photo day” hair? The housekeeper with sideburns looked hotter than Tinz.

5. tribeca - Timz looks so gorg? Another hourly employee of the Mortimers no doubt.

6. NYCgirl - it makes up for all the things she has done seriously? Name two things Tinz as done seriously and marrying Topper for his money and name does not count.

7. Serena - Tinsley’s lines are so funny? Since you are also tribeca up there, all I can say is if you think “he’s got a sweet ass” is funny you need to have your humor gland re-examined. Is that the best you could come up with? I realize having to post twice will get you overtime with your hourly wage from the Mortimers but please try to be more unique. It’s called thinking it may hurt a little but sometimes one has to suffer the pain for the gain. soooooooo

8. Jonz - Tinz looked gorgeous and was hilarious? You must be another Mortimer hourly wager. I hope they offer you a 401 K because you won’t be getting any gigs other than the Mortimer gig. BTW Jonz, please don’t post about Tinz’s sex life or your perception of what it is or might be. I am sure you are the highest paid hourly wager on the Mortimer payroll but sugah you made me snort orange juice out of my nose when I read your post. I could suffer from post traumatic shock syndrome after reading what you wrote. Besides we ALL are aware that if Tinz is burning up any sheets it’s those with someone else’s DNA on them before Topper gets home. Something Monica should have done with the infamous blue dress. Where does she hide those ashes?

9. ee - Tinz looked hot? Not even luke warm. Try again

The video was funny to an extent. Yes, some of the socialites were adequate for their parts most were not.

30. This is class? - June 18, 2007

Tacky very tacky. Tasteless very tasteless. I miss Kitty Carlisle.

31. lier, lier - June 18, 2007

now let’s see. just who would hate tinz so much that she would post the above vitriol. oh, i know, it has to be kelly cutrone or olivia palermo who can’t STAND to hear anything nice about tinz. better watch yourself with the above comments, though. accusing tinz of extramarital sex is slander and defamation of character. why, you would think that you two would have stopped with the lie about tinz checking (which is the reason you used that word, right, OP, since you played the game) olivia on the runway. LIER, LIER, PANTS ON FIRE.

32. Not Funny + Ugly + Horse-Face = Tinsley - June 18, 2007

OMIGOD!

It’s like the funniest thing I’ve ever se- oh wait, no. It is complete trash. I didn’t laugh once. If anything, it only proves that empathy exists since I literally felt sorry for those girls!
I just made my bff, who’s a writer-now-actor for SNL who will remain annonymous (so you can guess who he is, I’m sure), watch it and he completely agrees. In fact, he’s making me take him out for drinks later because I made him watch such trash.
OK, and for all you bitches saying that Tinsley looks incredible: ever hear of lasik? Because you clearly have vision problems. Tinsley’s thin lips, horse teeth and pointy-ass face make ugly girls hopeful. At least now we know the “Tinz” is doing SOMETHING good for the world at large - she makes ugly girls feel like they can finally belong.

33. UppityBitch - June 18, 2007

I’m sorry to disagree with most of you but I found this vapid and in extreamly bad taste. For all the money and advantages and time that these girls have, to spend it doing “satire” like this is unfortunate for them. This is Jennifer Creel’s big entree into acting? I miss the Private Eye of 1980s London.

34. LG - June 18, 2007

Ok seriously. It is spelled “liar.” And I know it is tiresome to be the grammar/spelling police on this thing, but if you are going to defend someone, at least be intelligent when you do it.

I notice that TM and Dabney’s defenders are often quite litigious.

Finally, I can’t decide if the video is funny because the socialites did it and it is unexpected, or if it is actually stand own its own funny. The maid in the back is undeniably hilarious, though.

35. bahama babe - June 18, 2007

soooooo unimpressed, soooo not funny, soooooo much twaddle.

36. Metro West - June 18, 2007

lier, lier

Hold on while I stop laughing

It is spelled “LIAR LIAR” not “LIER LIER”. Hun were you not using your ’speel cheeker’.

37. ee - June 18, 2007

i dont really like tinsley, she is not really the nicest person, BUT, she still looks good. i dont know why you would not think so - i mean, at the very least, she is thin. for a short girl, she keeps herself thin enough to look good in these clothes. she also has good skin. the rest, i think is nice, but i can see where there would be debate. in any case, when you see her in real life, she is still better looking than most people, even at benefits, where the demographic is better looiking than avg

38. LG - June 18, 2007

Does this make anyone else think of the Smirnoff New England Gangstas spoof? I think that was done better- not necessarily b/c of the women’s performances but because the Smirnoff script was funnier.

39. BCPrincess - June 18, 2007

CLASSY!

40. UES chick - June 18, 2007

JOE HOTNESS. I want him. Too bad (for me) that he’s gay!

How come Carole Radziwill doesn’t come out too much anymore?
Tinsley looks good and so does Cristina.
Even Jennifer to some extent…

41. Coolio - June 18, 2007

Jennifer looks like a MAN. End of discussion.

42. Jonz - June 18, 2007

#24 - oh, c’mon, nancy princeton - what do you reckon, Ms. Tinz lies back and thinks of England in the sack (er, I mean Virginia). There’s enough of video footage of her to see that she’s a girl who knows how to have fun. I don’t see it as slander or flattery - she just doesn’t strike me as an uptight stick-in-the-mud. A refreshing change for the UES. Tired of seeing the ladies who look like their faces were formed during a gale force wind in my ‘hood. Tinz is a breath of fresh air.

43. Jonz - June 18, 2007

Now here’s delicious society reading….

http://www.newyorksocialdiary.com/nysd/socialdiary

Note to Byrdie Bell - would you please cut those ridiculous bangs? Seeing that stringy hair of hers hanging in her eyes in a bloody couture gown (and every other couture outfit she wears). GET A HAIRCUT!!!! And I thought my hair was a mess….

44. Jonz - June 18, 2007

oops, sorry for the incomplete link - was referring to the Versailles ball pics on NYSD. Delicious photos there apart from Byrdie and her offending hairstyle (or lack thereof).

45. ee - June 18, 2007

byrdies dress is lovely. who did it?

how does one get invited to this?

46. Bea - June 18, 2007

I’m surprised that no one has said this yet but Johannes Huebl is pure man candy. He can take me to the Alps anyday!

47. NYC Lawyerista - June 19, 2007

LOLOL, That was great.

48. auden - June 19, 2007

this is disgustingggg

49. ACG - June 19, 2007

Cristina Greeven looks great

Johannes is smokin’

50. OrganicAlphaMale - June 19, 2007

#31Did you get your GED at the same place Paris Hilton got hers?

51. auden - June 19, 2007

well byrdie’s dress is j mendel. it’s exactly the same with the one dr. lisa airan wore to the operation smile ball around last month. just check out the pictures from style.com to make it sure.

52. mysupersweetdeportment aka huge PJCizzle fan - June 19, 2007

Paul johnson-Calderon is so hot. He and Peter should totally do stuff like this. They are both so hot. I don’t care what people say, I’d drop in on that party any old time! I heard from a source close to the two that they are taking a little break while their summer schedules are a little crazy…Paul is actually in London now no doubt meeting up with his beloved boss Lauren davis (any relation to peter? Is that how Paul got the job?)! Um curious about this new boy who has new York on a string! When is the interview with him?! Check him out on pmc that press juncket that he and Kristian have been doing is so much fun to watch play out! Can’t wait for the show boys and hope the relations with mr. Davis continue to bring him joy…you’ve got a fan in me, Paul! Let’s see you get out there more and do stuff like this…anyone know anything about this belt line he is designing? I want them all!

53. one princess - June 19, 2007

that was effing hilarious. everyone needs to relax for a second and just enjoy it for what it is…

even though i think it’s funny that johannes is in this while all those women talk smack about him…mostly because he isn’t the firendliest of sorts…but agreed, he is wonderful eye candy…

i guess i’m sort of a hypocrite in this post-but hey, i wouldn’t be the first!

54. 10 Gracie Square - June 19, 2007

This is the first I’ve seen this video! It’s cute! Everyone needs to stop being SO critical. It’s meant to be funny. It’s not Jerry Seinfeld comedy but it is something, something I didn’t think that Tinsley or Jennifer would even think of doing. Good for them! I shared this with a girlfriend and she has the same feelings.

55. Realist - June 19, 2007

lauren davis and peter davis are not related at alll…. lauren is a laguna leach. peters mom was married to another man before she met john jay mortimer and had topper and minnie.

this video is cute and funny in that you wouldnt expect socialites to say “sweet ass” like our wonderful tinz did. some of the lines are funny”nanny from manila” but most of the video is just so silly.

56. Thea - June 19, 2007

This is a bit too ridiculous. Funny but so ridiculous.

57. Artist at work - June 19, 2007

Nice blog , great pics ..the vid is cool also ..keep it up..and check out our studios blog or stop by if your ever in Paris.
ciao

58. Texas Belle - June 19, 2007

This is absolutely cringe inducing! I’m actually embarrassed FOR them.

TACKY, TACKY, TACKY!!!

59. xoJacquelinexo - June 19, 2007

I am aghast! What a dreadfully tacky stunt! It isnt even flattering, shot on par with one of those cheesey “friend-line” phone commercials. This is a perfect example of poor taste and desperation.

60. Lancelot - June 19, 2007

Done with this post, here’s a new topic:

Known as one of New York’s most glamorous socialites, Fabiola Beracasa is the daughter of banking scion Alfredo Beracasa and Veronica Hearst (her late stepfather was Randolph A. Hearst). Sure, she hosts her share of charity events, willingly poses for photographers at every turn, pops up in all the party pages, and has been known to dance atop the occasional banquette—but there’s much more to Beracasa than meets the eye. She’s worked as an event executive at Dior and now serves as part owner and creative director for Circa, the fine-jewelry-buying firm that discreetly acquires the personal jewelry of the social elite. Beracasa first came to Circa as a client, but it wasn’t long before CEO Chris Del Gatto realized she was as rare a gem as he’d ever encountered. “It’s important to have someone like Fabiola, who is representative of our clients, working with us,” Del Gatto explains. “Someone who’s international, very smart, and may have jewelry that they no longer use.”

Unlike others in her position who may be more concerned with their social schedule than their business affairs, Beracasa has grand ambitions. “I see myself building an empire,” she declares.

7:30a.m. Wake up and have a full glass of water and some fresh fruit for breakfast.
7:45a.m. Meet my trainer, Reily, and go for a four- to five-mile run outside, followed by a half hour of weight training.
9:15a.m. Arrive at my office and meet with Chris Del Gatto to review the architectural drawings for our new office in Hong Kong, and discuss the progress being made on our soon-to-open office at the Palazzo Hotel in Las Vegas. It’s very important to me that the aesthetics of the project are up to Circa standards, so I keep a close eye on the process.
10:30 a.m. Do a phone interview with a fashion magazine on the types of jewelry we’re buying most at the moment.
10:45 a.m. Meet with a client who’s brought in a few extremely significant and rare pieces to show us. She and I then meet with Chris—we purchase the jewelry and present her with a seven-figure check. She’s so happy that she insists on taking me to lunch.
12:00 noon Arrive at Le Bernardin and enjoy a wonderful meal. I feel so good about my morning that I decide to splurge and have dessert.
2:00 p.m. Meet with our creative team to discuss the status of our new ad campaign. We review the images that will be used and agree they’re simply stunning.
3:30 p.m. Do an interview with South American Vogue for a fashion and trend story. The photo shoot will take place later in the week.
4:15 p.m. Chris and I select a pair of diamond earrings to donate for the New Yorkers for Children silent auction, and figure out the seating for Circa’s table at the event.
4:30 p.m. Review the donation requests that have been sent to us and decide which events and charities Circa will commit to this year.
5:30 p.m. Finally, for the first time all day, I have a chance to reply to my e-mails.
6:15 p.m. Run to a hair appointment at Simadi Salon.
7:15 p.m. Arrive home and put on a beautiful Valentino dress to wear to the Valentino dinner on the rooftop of the Gramercy Park Hotel.
11:00 p.m. Slip out of the dinner and head to the Rose Bar to have a few drinks with some friends before calling it a night.

61. litsa - June 19, 2007

this is such obvious fab PR. tell us, since you are such an authority on her, why couldnt she graduate college (after numerous tries)

62. gg - June 19, 2007

why was fab unable to graduate from college?

63. lola - June 19, 2007

cute dress

64. lola - June 19, 2007

why pray tell was the infanta incapable of making it thru university

65. lola - June 19, 2007

boston college to be precise

66. aeree - June 19, 2007

is she ashamed about this? a sore subject?

67. LG - June 19, 2007

Maybe it just seemed like a waste of time to her. I mean, not having a college degree doesn’t seem to have hurt her. *shrug*

68. Greenwichgirl14 - June 19, 2007

Is that Eva Larenzotti from Vivre in this too? I cant tell as she looks kinda wierd..

69. Poland - June 19, 2007

Fab is fab and I would love to have her daily schedule.

70. GL! - June 19, 2007

love tinz’s lip synching- so funny. she’s great!

71. Mrs. C - June 19, 2007

College isn’t for everyone. And as LG stated “it doesn’t seem to have hurt her.”
She keeps a very busy schedule, and the new adds for Circa are quite great.
You rock Fabiola - keep up the good work.

72. ee - June 19, 2007

this site makes me want to hurl. fab doesnt rock, she is not that attractive, she just comes from money and can “afford” to ironically, pay people to “spin” her daily life into a “career”.. can the PR people please leave?

73. Mrs. C - June 19, 2007

OMG…ee, the same could be said about your Tinsley also, she spun her daily life into a career. don’t hate on Fabiola, just because she’s a hundred times hotter and sexier than your, Tinsley.

74. LeeLee - June 19, 2007

Totally agree with 72. College isn’t for everyone? What is so great about her life that we as a people should aspire to it. I’m not being politically correct here, but come on ,she pays for her nadine johnson team to promote her (oh, excuse me, circa), buys the friendship of socials by funding these crazy trips, and she is completely plastic and unattractive.

And to not be able to graduate from BC? It’s so lame that she hadto go there to begin with, and not to graduate? How dumb do you have to be?

One thing I will say though, is she is NOT FAT. That anyone would consider a skeletor like Lauren Davis an ideal over Fab, who doesn’t even approach fat, is sick , sick , sick. If anything, it looks like Fab is starting to feel this sick pressure and has lost some weight. But she is in perfect proportions and looks great the way she is (although I wonder if she maybe had some small implants - clearly she is not adverse to the knife).

MY two cents.

75. LG - June 19, 2007

Whether or not you think her life is great is sort of irrelevant, though. I think the point is that her life would probably be exactly the same whether she finished college or not. I mean, would a college degree change your opinion of her? Would she have a different career? I mean, technically she would be able to go to grad school, but if she knew she wouldn’t do that…then maybe she didn’t see a point in finishing. Or maybe she really couldn’t graduate- I don’t know. I just don’t think it would have made a huge difference if she had.

76. ee - June 19, 2007

lg, most people finish college now, it is kind of pathetic not to be able to finish, at BC no less. college is a rite of passage for your AVERAGE person… it is not simply a stepping stone to graduate school. it is a means in its own end. i dont think fabiola is bad, but to promote her “career” so shamelessly will naturally inspire rebuke. this is like when paris hilton’s pr team claims after 3 days in jail she has found god and changed… i mean, come on.

77. LG - June 19, 2007

ee- I basically agree with you. College is a valuable experience as a right of passage. However, I have to say that my liberal arts degree from a high ranking university hasn’t been particularly useful, and if I could trade it for enough money and contacts to create a “career” out my social network and background, I would consider it. Ummmm, but I don’t know if I would be proud of it.
(And yes, the blatant PR post is not great.)

78. bahama babe - June 19, 2007

Maybe she just wasn’t ready for college, or wasn’t into whatever she was studying. It happens all the time that people do go to college under pressure from parents or peers, then realise that they aren’t enthused about the subjects they ‘fall into’ studying….. Many of the world’s best business brains have actually never been to a lecture, so judging her on the basis of an incomplete education isn’t entirely an accurate portrayal of success.

79. ee - June 19, 2007

to say many of the world’s best business brains went to college is false. it is true that steve jobs, bill gates and a *handfull* of others did not go to school, but these people were like, geniuses?
the rest of us however, go to school. do you think she is ready yet? the woman is well into her 30s. for fabiola to flaunt her career is just so laughable on so many fronts. its sort of like when we see melissa b posing as if she is attractive. both are sort of delusional in their own way.

80. ee - June 19, 2007

the standard of socialites is so low, cant new york produce anything better than this??

81. serendipity - June 19, 2007

#73 et al. - Can we please stop saying “DON’T HATE ON”. Would you please use proper English on this site? If it’s a real stretch for you, I’m sure TMZ and DListed would relish your input instead.

82. ee - June 19, 2007

case in point, why people should go to college… learn english!

83. serendipity - June 19, 2007

Yeah, I must admit that I desperately miss the good ole’ days of the Miller sisters. They exuded class, wealth, and beauty - the failed marriages were just the icing on the cake. Women who seemingly have it all, and yet still couldn’t keep it all. I think it began going downhill with the Hilton’s.

84. ee - June 19, 2007

yes, they were 1000x more interesting than these clowns

85. vainpleasure - June 20, 2007

this video makes me want to scratch my eyes out

86. talaya - June 20, 2007

Funny Video! Good comedy. Definitely not a “career thing” but it appears everyone had fun while doing it- could you imagine trying to keep a straight face with that fat slob dancing around?lol
As for Fabiola, I don’t beleive that if she did/did not graduate college really matters, because she was born into a family with money & power, therefore having easy access to “high profile” employment. In her case, as well as Tinsleys-its all who you know that gets your foot in the door, not your education.
I agree with #77-I, too would consider it, but wouldn’t be proud either.

87. Anaiah - June 20, 2007

#81, “don’t hate on” isn’t supposed to be standard english. it’s slang. it’s a colloquialism. it’s creative. plenty of words/phrases that originated as corruptions of standard english, i.e., slang, became part of our lexicon over time. just read william safire (since you’re apparently a lexicographer, he must be your avatar of all things “proper”). and lighten up! since you’re “above” using slang b/c it isn’t “proper english”, you must be beyond tiresome in person.

88. nancy princeton - June 20, 2007

I also miss the Millers. It was nice to read about socialites who were actually enviable! They weren’t perfect but at least they were fabulous! I was much younger then, but it was exciting to be out dancing and hear Alexandra Miller et al had just arrived. If I heard “Tinsley and Fabiola are here!” I would probably leave.

89. nancy princeton - June 20, 2007

Funny, too, that yesterday was Fabiola and today it’s Tinsley. Now who runs this site, again??

90. Fabs and Tins Fans - June 20, 2007

oh here we go again nancy princeton. remember when everyone said fabs and tins were running socialiterank.com? come on. you just can’t stand the fact that everyone is interested in these girls cause they’re FABULOUS.

91. nancy princeton - June 20, 2007

It’s too much of a coincidence that two socialite blogs were hatched at the same time as these two attention whores got huge on the scene. No one can convince me that these two have nothing to do with the socialite blogs. Sorry, but I calls it as I sees it.

92. mark - June 21, 2007

DUMB DUMB DUMB!

93. Social - June 21, 2007

Nancy Princeton, Your logic makes no sense. Of course you are going to be reading about Tinsley and Fabiola often because they do happen to be interesting. As for the two sites, SR and PAP, which came first , the chicken or the egg? Tinsley and Fabiola were already on the scene, so naturally they were discussed on these sites.

94. sr_cuervo - June 21, 2007

They are also discussed on other sites.

95. Dave - June 28, 2007

Have money ready. I call you. You know who you are. Don’t make touble.

96. sam - July 28, 2007

Utterly tasteless is all I have to say.
