Former President Bill Clinton proved that not even the Queen of Spain could distract him from sitting beside his favourite actress Penelope Cruz.
Clinton was present at the Spanish Institute Gold Medal Gala on Park Avenue along with Vogue editor Anna Wintour and Queen Sofia of Spain.
According to socialdiary.com, Mr. Clinton was seated next to the Queen of Spain, on her right with Mr. Oscar de la Renta on her left.
To the left of Mr. de la Renta was Ms. Cruz, and to right of Mr. Clinton was Anna Wintour.
The main highlight of the evening was when former president eventually switched his seat with Mr. de la R so that he could be seated next to the movie star.
After being felicitated with a medallion from Queen Sofia, Clinton revealed to the audience that he has seen everyone of the Cruz's movie.
"I was trying to figure out exactly why I would receive this award tonight. It may be because even though I'm not of Spanish descent, I've seen every one of Penelope Cruz's movies - and I liked them all," said Clinton. (ANI)
Ol’ Bubba is a real class act, isn’t he? Trailer trash in a tux is still trailer trash!
What I think is interesting is that in the photo, Cruz is wearing a blue dress (aqua blue, but blue)...
"He can't control himself with a blue dress."
If Hillary loses ... will she divorice Bill?
At least his taste has improved, although there are similarities in appearance between Ms. Cruz and Paula Jones.
Lining up reservations for the Lincoln bedroom. Pss..Penelope, Barbara said I was full service.
And Penelope is wearing a blue dress to boot...hehehe...You can’t make this stuff up.
Queen Sofia looks very nice; her jewelry shows great taste. She’s a distinguished lady.
I love bright red!
What a classless douchebag.
You can take the boy out of the trailer park, but you can’t take the trailer park out of the boy.
One of those two is going to wind up prematurely deceased.
No. She won’t divorce him unless she wins the Presidency. Facts are married candidates just have a better image (despite what we know about him and her) the general trend is that there’s something weird about unmarried older candidates. The only exception is the candidate who’s a widower and was viewed as a victim of the spouses’ death.
Trailer Trash is Trailer Trash!
Stain-less in Spain?
At least that's the story I've heard...not sure if it is reliable.
Bubba’s speech:
“You see that babe in the blue dress behind me there? I am gonna HIT that thing tonight! Screw Gore’s Nobel prize! I’ll take a Cruz over that any day!”
"Why don't you just zip it..."
She is a lovely lady and does dress with exquisite taste. Not everyone can carry off bright red, she does it well.
Paula Jones looked pretty good in her time. I never could understand what she saw in Billy Bob.
The Reign in Spain stays vainly with the Stain.
Correction, correction, I was thinking about the girl he had back when he was a governor.
