Mamie's Interview with BBC in Scotland
About the notorius Hollywood Confidental Magazine!


Left to right it's Danny the Soundman, John the Cameraman, Angus the Director, Todd the Lightman in back, and Andrea the Producer. It was a great interview and I gave them the lowdown on the evils of Hollywood Confidential, the grandmother of all gossip sheets!

August 3, 2002
Unfortunately, there are no cameras allowed now at Hef's parties, but I can tell you that it was real hot summer night! There were bevies of beauties and food and drinks galore! Wish you could have all been there! Hef says Hi!

Since I can't show you the party, here at least are some pictures of me getting ready to go in my new Lexus SC430.

This is the sweetest driving car I've ever owned.

Perry and I ready to take off for a Midsummer Night's Dream!

Almost ready for "action!"

Palm Springs Weekend
Hollywood goes to the Springs!
Mamie spent the last weekend in June 2002 at her favorite retreat, the Estrella Inn in Palm Springs. Estrella, as you may know, means "star" in Spanish, so what better place for Mamie to chill out in the desert heat?

The occasion for the weekend was a gala party at the Palms Springs retreat of Jamie Kabler, founder of the Hollywood 48-Hour Miracle Diet, and David Wills, writer and Mamie's close friend. The house is classic Hollywood mid-century style and loaded with pictures of Hollywood stars. More than 150 movers and shakers from Palm Springs and L.A. were in attendance. With the temperature well over 104, how could it NOT be a hot party!
