Adding a little thrill to the evening, last night 213 Inc's president Cedd Moses and Seven Grand GM Aidan Demarest passed out a short stack of application packets to interested scotch-tasters at Seven Grand. The gentleman introduced the hush-hush new lounge, The Doheny as an exclusive club for the downtown crowd, with added benefits of concierge service from Preferred Group.

Fuck Kobe Bryant and his whining bitchass OC spoiled brat yuppiefuck bullshit. The myopic, unwavering love of Kobe by so many Laker fans is baffling. Eclipsed only by the kool-aid drinking adoration of George Bush by his equally retardulous base. Here's what Kobe has been given while having the honor of being a Laker: - the best coach ever - the best center of his era - the best owner ever - the best...

A few years back in the Kobe/Shaq championship era, during the obligatory “here are the celebrities in the stands” portion of any Lakers television broadcast, you’d get to a glimpse of Lou Gossett Jr. in and amongst your Jack and Denzel shots. Not so much lately. The reason — he didn’t pay for his seats. Which leads us to... the Lakers are suing Gossett for $40,000, the cost of two of those premium seats for...

It's time. As much as we hated seeing silver stars and winter white wonderland at the Beverly Center as early as October (did they completely gloss over Halloween or did we just miss it when they were promoting it back in, say, July?), we must accept that Holiday shopping is indeed upon us now that it's December. To make it easier on us all, LAist has toiled, worn out our mouse clicking fingers, scoured...

Tonight the Lakers face the Utah Jazz on a Charles Barkley-approved national broadcast — a face off of two surprising first-place teams. So it begs the question: Can these teams stay on top for an entire season? In the case of talented and now healthy Utah, it’s pretty easy to answer yes. For the Lakers, well, they get a qualified yes — if they start playing some defense. Most Laker fans have been feeling...

Laker fans can seem impatient. Sure, fans of lesser franchises would probably go with the word "spoiled", but in the past Laker fans simply ignored those comments as they were driving to parades through downtown. They even thought Mark Madsen's dancing was cute; winning will cloud your judgment that way. But after two whole seasons without a Finals appearance some fans this summer called for a BIG move. Fortunately, the more rational fans among them...

February 27 is a good birthday for beauties. Leading the pack is Elizabeth Taylor, whose breathtaking looks, acting talent and dramatic offscreen life have defined grand Hollywood stardom. She turns 74 today.

Color us confused on this one, but is that some sort of an Italian or French chef popping out of a covered wagon with a freshly cooked chicken on his hand? And he's one tough guy, because he's not even using a plate or a potholder. Ah yes, it brings to mind the long and arduous journeys that the settlers undertook to come out West, bringing with them the joys of international cuisine and fried chicken. We would say he's Italian because of the red scarf, but that mustache just says French all over the place. "Oh Ho HO! Zees ees what ees for deener! I wheeped eet up in zee wagon!" And check out his dandy boots. This is clearly a man about town. Or at least a man about Olympic and San Vicente.
