Where Hollywood agents love to party
Metromix, Tribune's youth-oriented lifestyle website, has published its definitive guide to where Hollywood agents love to "booze and schmooze" in Los Angeles. They advise you never to enter the Writer’s Bar at Raffles L'Ermitage without "a suit, a BlackBerry, and an 'I run this town' aura", adding that the best way to tell "actual agents from those seeking agents" is to look at who is enjoying the caviar, and who's "digging for one more dollar for a $8 beer".
At X Bar at the Hyatt Lounge, "seasoned agents talk about themselves in the lounge...while their assistants double-fist gin-and-tonics and BlackBerrys on the patio where, of course, they talk about their bosses talking about themselves and count the days until they fill their bosses' shoes."
And "according to one ICM assistant, the morning office gossip is always about who was sipping what with so-and-so at Craft".
Read the full story here.
