The Perfect Party
Here’s who we’d invite if we could entertain this month’s most interesting visitors, locals, and newsmakers.
ANNE ROSELLINI
The Seattle native is up for an Independent Spirit Award this month for cowriting the film Winter’s Bone. She’s also nominated for a Spirit Crushing Award. Did you see that movie? Deee-pressing.
MICHAEL HENRICHSEN
He launched playmybirthdaybillyidol.com to lure the aging rocker to Seattle for a show. In other news, Elton John launched willplayyourpartyfor100bucksandameal.com.
RICK LARSEN
The Washington Congressman was named the second-funniest celebrity in D.C. John Boehner was named the funniest for his spot-on impression of a leaky faucet.
KEN JENNINGS
The Jeopardy! champ and Seattleite returns to the game show this month to face off against a supercomputer. The loser has to buy the winner a new hard drive. (Feb 14–16)
SUSAN HILDRETH
The former Seattle library director was confirmed by the Senate for a federal library position. Her confirmation almost hit a snag, though, when senators discovered she’d checked out Lady Chatterley’s Lover in 1982 and never returned it.
MICHAEL CERA
The Juno star made a surprise stop at the Moore to debut a new band. And Michael Henrichsen wasn’t set to launch playmybirthdaymichaelcera.com for at least another week!
See who else we’ve invited to the dinner table.
