This was on GAWKER -- very funny...

My girlfriend grabbed my sleeve as we were dining to alert me of the fact that Ralph Fiennes, her fantasy world boyfriend, was dining across the room with Helen Mirren, Taylor Hackford, and to my girlfriend's dismay, what appeared to be Ralph Fiennes's girlfriend (younger, blond, pretty cute). Most people gawked, but let them sup in peace--after all, we are in NY, not CA--until one drunk dude stumbled over and said to Helen Mirren, "Someone should tell the Queen that she could be f*ckin' hot like you." The maitre'd promptly asked him to leave. The celebrity table giggled as the drunk dude left.

And who might that "someone" be? Tony Blair? Simon Doonan? I vote for Graham Norton.

Prince Philip would be my guess.

Hey - I'm not the one insulting CALI! It's the person who submitted the item.
This was taken from GAWKER -- it did not, for once, happen to me!

What I said was, "Someone should tell the Queen that she wishes she was f*ckin' hot like you."



God, they never get it right.

Oh Elphaba, you inadvertantly reaffirmed a California stereotype while defending the honor of Californians. Ohmigod, I wonder if they have that in my size?

That is a great story--Mirren IS a hottie!
