The dress code at this art gala may have been black-tie, but guests were in their blue period.
At the LA County Museum of Art’s starry Art+Film Gala, celebs and art and fashion power players were keeping their eyes on the Dodgers game as much as on the speakers.
Said a spy at the event on Saturday night — where guests included Leonardo DiCaprio, who was sitting with Disney boss Bob Iger, Cynthia Erivo, Kaia Gerber, Cindy Crawford, Demi Moore, Demi Lovato, Dustin Hoffman and more — “All of Hollywood was watching the Dodgers game during the gala.”
During the dramatic Game 7, “Everyone was cheering, and some of the room thought it was because the food was coming out, but the Dodgers had scored!”
The room also erupted in cheers when the Dodgers won the game, and their second straight World Series, in extra innings.
The museum’s CEO and Wallis Annenberg Director, Michael Govan, reportedly exclaimed from the stage, “Go Dodgers!”
The event was presented by Gucci and raised $6.8 million for the museum.
“Black Panther” director Ryan Coogler was honored at the event, along with artist Mary Corse.
Eva Chow was co-chair with DiCaprio and Doja Cat performed, while the menu was created by Cote chef David Shim.
The room included a mix of artists, execs, film greats, TV stars, pop crooners and influencers such as Mark Bradford, James Turrell, George Lucas, Baz Luhrmann, Angela Bassett, Lorde, Tessa Thompson, “Wicked” director Jon M. Chu, Alix Earle, Paris Hilton, Elle Fanning, Salma Hayek, Joel Edgerton, Kerry Washington, Casey Wasserman and more.
