Whenever there’s something hot going on in Chicago – which, as you must know, is v. v. often .. ish – we turn to Jossip’s Chitown correspondent The Model, otherwise known as Cory Bernstein.
He was on the scene last night for the Us Weekly‘s West Coast exec editor Ken Baker‘s book party for his Hollywood Hussein.
If you don’t know Ken from his three books, you’ll know him as the Us Weekly editor who didn’t try to lay down a 13-year-old girl as well as the Us Weekly editor who didn’t go to rehab.
Files Cory:
2:23am got home from the book signing party for my friend Ken Baker, the Executive West Coast Editor for US Magazine. The book he wrote which I need to read now is called ” Hollywood Hussein “, and should be really interesting. Our party was at Le Passage tonight from 10:00pm- 1:00 am but I took a power nap and then got their late which was perfect timing for us to see each other and catch up. Ken Baker is an awesome guy, he has a gorgeous wife, and 2 really beautiful kids, and he has lived with a brain tumor for I think about the last 10 years, which most people don’t know or realize but he is a great guy.
There was a party the night before for him in LA, which Carmen Electra and Paris were the guest of honors and supporters of Ken’s new book.
Now, if only we could’ve gotten past the first three pages (that’s an exact figure, mind you) of Hollywood Hussein, we’d have something to share with you. But the cute illustrations of President Bush and Saddam were just too lavish for us to pay attention to the text.
