Pharrell’s Simple Birthday Wishes

At last weekend's 30th-anniversary party for Diesel, we polled the attendees about their birthday wishes. Pharrell's ideal party involves Cinnamon Toast Crunch and watching The Smurfs, and Patrick McDonald will buy $795 Paul Smith boots no matter what day it is. "Even if I wind up in a soup line, I’m wearing those boots," he claims. That might happen! See other contingency plans from the likes of Lindsay Lohan, members of Franz Ferdinand, and others by viewing our Party Lines slideshow.
