Charlie Gasparino recently participated in one of New York‘s dining features wherein notable people discuss what they ate over the course of the week. Those of you in the know re: the fuel that makes this Jabroni Pony will run not be surprised to hear that he consumed many a vodka martini, doused his meat in ketchup and affirmed his commitment to “staying regular” by downing a bunch of bran muffins. Unlike his last food diary, in which Gaspo confessed to finding no greater joy in the world that tearing into a plate of braciola while on the can, the Fox Business anchor kept it mostly clean, while sharing a few tips. Such as how to make gravy from scratch (“good Italian canned tomatoes, two cans of the whole tomatoes and one of crushed. I let it cook for about an hour and fifteen minutes, maybe an hour and a half”), indulging while keeping yourself in centerfold form (“I only eat desserts on the weekends”) and drinking like a man (“no respectable Russian will drink Grey Goose, they all drink Ketel One, because you want to taste the vodka. Now I can’t go back to Grey Goose, which is really super smooth, you can’t taste the vodka. If you’re gonna drink it, you gotta make it real”). Continue reading »

Confidential To Steve Schwarzman: Charlie Gasparino Thought The Food At Your Party Sucked
By Bess Levin
In January, Kendrick Wilson III joined BlackRock as a vice-chairman, which is why he’s the subject of a Bloomberg profile today. Forty some odd years ago, he was nicknamed “Wildcat” by his undergrad chums at Dartmouth, which is why he’s the basis for the lead character in an upcoming erotic novel about life in the Ivies. And 16 or so years ago, he was the peacemaker in a “shouting match” between Larry Fink and Stephen Schwarzman, which is what we’re going to investigate right now. Continue reading »
By now you’ve probably heard about the killer whale, Tilikum, that savagely murdered an SeaWorld employee today in front of a packed audience (according to a guest, the trainer was “thrashed around pretty good” and at one point, one of her shoes flew off). A devastating tragedy, and something that perhaps calls for an avenging. By whom? Stephen Schwarzman, ’cause Blackstone owns SeaWorld.
“The tone against them is so difficult that they may lack the confidence to just start doing their normal function.”
We’ve written previously about the sick sons of bitches running the smut factory known as the Wall Street Journal. So this is the sort of thing I would expect from them, and not from Felix Salmon or the rest of the gang at Reuters but surprise! I was wrong. After the jump– I won’t put these obscenities on the main page of an upstanding financial publication with standards and good taste– a moment between unsuspecting Steve Schwarzman and a banana is salaciously captured so perverted little voyeurs like yourself can get off at your desks.
Stephen Schwarzman loves romantic comedies. There, I said it. Maid In Manhattan, How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days, You’ve Got Mail, all of ‘em. So what if he wants to live in a world in which fairy-tale endings really do come true? So what if he wants to be transported to a place where you could correspond with someone over the internet for years and when finally meeting, instead of getting hacked up and dumped in the East River, fall in love? So WHAT? They’re his thing, and he shouldn’t have to defend it to you, or anyone else. He works really hard, and this is the shit that gets him through the day. So excuse Stephen, if, on the opening weekend of a movie he’s been waiting months to see, he does what he has to do to ensure no one’s going to mess with his viewing.
Steve Schwarzman won’t let anything get in the way of a good time at the multiplex. To see “It’s Complicated” over the holidays in West Palm Beach, the Blackstone billionaire had an aide hold two seats in the middle of the theater for him and his wife, Christine. “The assistant was shooing people away until Christine and Steve got there,” says a spy, “at which point she gave the seats to them and left.”

“So the Blackstone ‘family’ party was this morning. There was a green leotard-rocking Santa’s little helper wearing these pointy tap shoe things (kind of hot?) and a life-size Grinch who I’m pretty sure was played by Schwarzman.”
