You’d think that a man who could get Tom Wolfe to accidentally wander in a side door on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange on B-Day, the day his private equity firm went public would get some attention in St. Tropez but apparently you’d think wrong. Oh yes, you’d think wrong (you’d also think: Es ist mir scheiss egal).
On Saturday, Tommy Hilfiger—TOMMY HILFIGER, not Ralph Lauren, but TOMMY HILFIGER— reportedly “drew a bigger crowd of admirers” at Club 55 than Stephen Schwarzman and his wife Christine. We don’t know about you, but we can’t think of anyone we’d rather gawk at/fawn over/ask for an autograph from/tell we’ve loved since he acquired Prime Hospitality and converted thirty-seven Wellesley Inns to the Extended StayAmerica brand than old crab hands. Or can we? Can we list some? What about: Christian Bale, Eric Bana, John Kraskinski, GOB, Paul Rudd.
Actually, that was our LIST. But, really, gets lets serious for a second—you would gladly trample Stephen Schwarzman for a moment with ______?

Clearly you have never been to St Tropez if you think that Schwarzman or any other financial type would normally cause much of a stir there.
Must be a slow news day at the Post (and Dealbreaker).

JBL-- must be a slow news day in your brain: "Es ist mir scheiss egal" means "I could give a fuck." Try to get the sarcasm next time.

Anon 1:32, How is coming right out and saying I could give a SHIT tantamount to sarcasm? That is pretty direct and not sarcastic at all.

the sarcasm is that db is making fun of the post for thinking this story means jack shit. it has nothing to do w/ a 'slow news day.'

dude that's not sarcasm. that's just saying it's shit. unless it is the subtle ironic sarcasm of not even being sarcastic

Anon 1:32, if you equate "scheiss" with "ficken" then I don't ever want to join you on a pub crawl through your favorite hangouts/fetish bars in Hamburg.
