Too bad he couldn’t get the real A listers like Scott Baio and Amber Rose. LOL.
Cant be they were there to suck up to Hollywood for parts.....
Anka and Bateman are in the money, well-established stars.
Anka must be a billionaire.
Bryan Lourd is a big wheel in gay-obsessed Hollywood.
He was married to Carrie Fisher. They had a child.
He left her realizing he was gay.
Looks more like a gathering os scum bags.
OMG, if we’ve lost Sheryl Lee Ralph, we’re doomed.
Lol, no. Quick Google search lists his net worth at around $80 million. Paul Anka hasn’t been even remotely relevant in 50 years.
Bryan Lourd was Princess Leia’s gay ex-husband, and yes, he is a big time Hollywood agent.
Paul Anka is a Canadian of Arabic ancestry and is 82 years old. He is also Jason Bateman’s father-in-law, so one of them brought the other (probably Bateman’s doing).
Are the celebs all has beens? You have to have an established name to get invited to these things. That means today’s hot new stars (if there are any) might not be invited, while the people who were invited (Streisand, Clooney, Roberts) may not have had any big projects lately. Some of the others, small timers like Kathryn Hahn, Jack Black, Jeff Ross, Jon Cryer, are still familiar names in Hollywood, though far from actual stars.
Anka’s had so many longtime hits (and written so many hits such as Sinatras
huge hit, My Way)..........his royalties alone, to this day, must be in the zillions.
Plus Anka has been in many facets of lucrative show biz over the years.
I’m sure he invested a lot of his income as well.
Oh, he’s loaded, that’s for sure.
Well, like I said, I looked it up and found $80 million, but who knows. I have 2 friends with higher net worth than that.
I watched Obama lead Biden off the stage following the red arrows. In other words, they anticipated Biden being confused and put the arrows down to lead him. Follow the arrows Joe.
He also wrote the Tonight Show theme with Johnny Carson. That tune played quite a few times over the years.
I’m disappointed in Jack Black 🥺
That must have earned Anka plenty.
Sounds good. Some of the members of this forum should be working on the campaign.
Yea I don’t get it
It must be a social thing..
At one time that was true. That was when the KKK marched and held rallies at the Democratic convention. Why don't the blacks know this?
His mother had the white genes. He'd still be back in Washington state or Hawaii. I still think his father was Malcolm X.
Obama leading his puppet again.
You have me confused with someone who give tiny shit about “Who’s who at Biden’s star-studded Los Angeles fundraiser!”
