A
special invitation from your
friends at
Shag...
Spend all week picketing for internet residuals, begging
your mom to send you a sweater and some gloves, or showing
up everywhere an hour early? Here’s what we were talking
about behind your back…compiled by your friends and
frenemies at 1835 Cahuenga:
Lebron
James Hosts SHAG’s Saturday Night
|
 |
Bring out the trumpeters and the throne! Last week
we
hinted at it, this
week we’ll shove it in your face and down your
throat like an NBA Phenom driving to the hoop to
dunk.
LeBron James, is not only the heir to the
NBA’s most famous #23 of all time, Mr. Jordan. He
is also a SHAG regular when he comes to
embarrass the Lakers and Clippers twice a year here
in town. After playing Sacramento on Friday, he’ll
come rest his 17 ft. legs in SHAG’s VIP this
Saturday night, November 10th. He’s
hosting Starlight Saturday. FYI: Our guy
Mark Da Spot only rolls with royalty. He is the
new king of pop, Justin Timberlake’s touring
DJ and now the NBA king’s social secretary as well.
I don’t know much about the Clippers, but I feel
pretty confident that one can party at SHAG and
still wake up to beat the “other LA basketball team”
the next day. See Lebron do it live on Saturday
night, and at Staples on Sunday.
Update:
There are two tables that have opened for Lebron’s
party on Saturday night. If you and your party
(maximum 5 people) are still trying to get a table,
please
email/text
ASAP. |
Wayans Bro’s It Out
Jackie Long’s birthday at SHAG brought ‘em out at
last Friday night. Marlon Wayans (In Living Color
’92, Scary Movies 1-9) made it rain in VIP…with glass. While
some people throw dollar bills, Marlon threw an armload of
bottles at everyone in sight and on site. Drinking? Kelly
Rowland, Scream star Duane Martin (who
incidentally also played in the NBA with the Knicks
briefly), and office girl Jess who had a spring break length
romance with a certain Scary Movie co-star. As we only
write you love letters once a week, E! Channel’s Marc
Malkin beat us to the presses. Read about it
over here.
Paralyzed by Brad Pitt
|
 |
As you know, we share a special relationship with
our sister eatery, Parc. Last night,
(Wednesday 11.7), Brad Pitt came to share a
special relationship with the man in the kitchen,
celebrity Chef J, and his food. (No Angie).
In talks for an upcoming film, Brad had dinner with
a potential future director (Kevin MacDonald,
director of Academy Award winning “Last King of
Scotland”/Forest Whitaker) on the way early side of
the night. The floor staff got so paralyzed, they
couldn’t serve Brad’s table. In the end, Chef J
had to wait Brad’s table himself!! By the way,
Brad is a porcini mushroom and BBQ guy.
We would have given him a SHAG pass to come over for
a drink without having to wait in line, but we were
already locked up in the middle of loading in for a
Tom Brady party tonight (Thursday night). It
was a good night to be a girl, gay, or curious in
the SHAG family all around.
The VIP diners seem to come in waves and we sensed
we were building to something big. Constance
Zimmer (Studio Chick/Ari hater from Entourage)
capped off last weekend on Sunday. She ate for 2.
The 8 month pregnant actress munched salad but, no
cucumber martinis for her!
Earlier in the weekend, Heroes’ scary serial killer
Sylar, Zachary Quinto, came in for a great
meal with a bunch of friends he has known forever.
The guys hung out as the dance floor filled up later
to digest the scene. Tonight, the full crew will
eat there till nauseous as GM Louis is paying
because the Boston Red Sox beat up his Colorado
Rockies so painfully.
A special Tuesday sushi night with Chef J tag
teaming with a guest celebrity chef is really taking
off over there. Special for “Shout” readers is
coming. More on this next week. |
You Out Tonight?
As always, if you are heading out, make sure you text or
email in advance so we can come grab you at the door. For
any night of the week, shoot an email to
thelist@shaghollywood.com or hit the
myspace before 4:45 PM. (Wednesdays and Sundays
you might find a “out buying Lebron size chairs” sign on the
door, we’re closed…so keep it to yourself on those days)
Your BFF-FEAE,
Mikey “The CHIMP” Glazer and your friends at
Shag Hollywood
P.S. Have you already eaten all your Halloween candy?
Still hungry? Don’t grab for a Snickers, lay a foundation of
substance on your stomach before irrigating yourself with
vodka for the night. If you’re having dinner at our sister
outlets Geisha House
(323) 460-6300 or
Parc (323.465.6200), ask your server for a
SHAG pass, which will get you and your arriving party (up to
4 people) a “call-ahead” to SHAG so you wont have to wait in
line or hang out in the cold with that new sweater your mom
sent you. As always, SHAG VIP card holders can always send
us
an email to get the 8:30 and 9PM reservations at Geisha
or Parc, even if the nice actress on the other end can only
squeeze you in at 6 or 10. We can’t promise to squeeze you
in to a Pitt-Jolie sandwich though!!
