"Boos, applause and the occasional catcall" shot through the room at a way tense East Hampton Town Board meeting over whether to can the burg's Natural Resources Department. Paris Hilton shot some of her new MTV show out here, then appeared to drink only antioxidant water at Tenjune back in the city. Word around town is that Joe Meli, the concert promoter who lost an estimated $30 million last summer with shows by Billy Joel and others he staged at the Ross School, wants to present Lionel Richie out here in July and Lenny Kravitz at summer's end. You can now helicopter from Westchester Airport to the Hamps for between $1,000 and $1,400, depending on where you're going. Amid a divorce battle, disconcertingly ageless Christie Brinkley — she looks just like she looked in Billy's 1983 "Uptown Girl" video! — was honored by the American Heart Association.
On- and off-screen couple Penn Badgley and Blake Lively shot Gossip Girl scenes out here (with arm-tattooed co-star Ed Westwick), but not before playing bingo at Tortilla Flats in the Village. And how perfect is it that a new exhibit on the history of sports in the Hamps shows stuff collected by a family named Lillywhite?
