A friend managed to snap some photos INSIDE Elton John’s $5000 PER SEAT Oscar viewing dinner party in West Hollywood. (The money did go to his AIDS foundation, but wouldn’t it be nice if he supported a women’s charity also?) Anyway, our spy was mighty impressed with the mountain of Godiva chocolate boxes near the entrance. Celebrities got in free – Emma Roberts and Chace Crawford ignored the chocolates and smoked outside. They were overheard plotting to crash the Vanity Fair party. Some people are never satisfied.

I guess my invite got lost in the mail, lol.
Oh how I would love to attend one of these glitzy parties. A person would probably have very different opinions of some of these stars if they actually met them in person at one of these laid back events. Good opinions, as well as bad, I am sure.
is this implication that women do not get AIDS ( which would be ignorant) OR that this charity doesn’t help women just men?? clarification would be nice…….
Spy pics!
Cue Peter Gunn.
Um, women don’t get AIDS? What a horrific and ignorant comment.
Colin: re : Um, women don’t get AIDS? What a horrific and ignorant comment.

if you are referring to Hedda’s post re read it you dummy….
she said if the implication was women do NOT get AIDS THAT was IGNORANT.
hello….
Pit Bull Lover, I think both Colin – and I – are referring to Janet’s characterization of Elton’s AIDS charity being for men. I assume that he agrees with Hedda Lettuce’s criticism of Janet’s original post. I like Janet, but wonder if she sometimes posts before she thinks.
Nods to hedda, Colin, and CoCo. This is a place to come for grins, not enlightenment.
First of all, how the hell do any of us know that Elton DOESN’T give, and give generously, to womens charities? My problem with him is letting celebrities into this event free! I am sick to death of rich people getting richer and richer as the rest of us struggle to fill our gas tanks. (Cue the sad music).
That is kind of weird on the surface Jerry. The only thing I can think is the policy served to attract celebs whose presence would in turn serve to attract others. Still, any celeb worth his or her salt would have donated regardless.
For $5,000.00 a plate, do you at least get to keep the plate as a souvenir?? Just asking!!!
I’d be staked out near the Godiva chocolates.
I think the women’s charity remark by Janet was ignorant. As Jerry said, how do we know he doesn’t give to them and who cares if he does or does not? He is giving to a charity that I am sure means something to him. I don’t see any reason to complain that it is not for women only, that is just silly. If I had the money, I would give to what means something to me regardless if it helped women, men or animals.
So, all these years I have thought that Elton’s AIDS party was a pay to come by EVERYBODY. What’s with the inequality? So, the regular folk can pony up $5000, and the fancy folk get to waltz on by free as a kite (and probably as high). Wow, just WOW!!!
If I knew THAT, I wouldn’t give 5 cents to come and eat with those freebie-grabbing hogs. That they get all those goodie bags we always hear about is bad enough, but now we find out the CHARITY BALLS are free to them too? They should be paying two and three times what the regular guys pay to get in. There is something horribly wrong with this picture!
Something’s not right about the way this article is worded. It takes an invitation to be admitted to Elton John’s annual Oscar fund raising party, so technically none of the guests pay to get in.
Someone needs to hire a proof reader.
this is the way FAGGOTS mask their failures in life.
Yeah, it’s unlikely any of his male pals and associate buddies can give AIDS to a female.
Dummy: AIDS is a women’s issue, too.
I think the worst thing is that the 2 young stars stayed out side and smoked…so gross…very sad.
As a WOMAN who is living with HIV, I say “Thank you,” to Elton and anyone else who contributes to combat this disease that affects women and men, young and old, rich and poor, gay and straight. The virus doesn’t appear to be as concerned with who it infects as some of the others who’ve left comments here. We will ALL be better off when this disease is defeated, once and for all.
no one would go if the celebs didn’t get in for free, it’s part of the price tag… that said, I’m really glad to hear I can go back to unprotected sex since AIDs isn’t a womans issue. Pretty lame Janet.
My God 5000.00 Thousand Dollars a Plate really Crazy but if the plate had Grilled Smoked Salmon Topped with Herbs and Red Cavier and Red Roasted Truffle Potatos and Stuffed Mushrooms with Crab and a Dancing Salad with Champain Dressing and Fresh spring Veggies with Sun Dried Tomatos and Olives and Chocolate Homemade Cheese Cake with layers of snickers and Oreo Cookies and…Homemade 5 Nut Crust and of course lets not foreget other items to choose from to place on this plate…. Rissorto with Mushrooms and Creamy cheese sauce and garnish with fresh Parm cheese but crazy me would have to make it worth there while and have a couple more desserts to offer and that would be my peach/apple pie and Strawberry cheese cake with cake and butter cream frosting?
