Reality Star Gives Makeovers in Madeover Suites at The Kimberly Hotel
We know what you’re thinking: reality TV stars at hotels—no, thanks. But this tale does not involve Speidi or Omarosa or a certain single father of eight. No, the reality TV dude in question here is Danish hairdresser Rene Fris, who was one of the judges for Bravo’s Shear Genius. Here he is wielding his scissors in a suite at the Kimberly Hotel in Midtown Manhattan.
But before you get too excited, Fris has not started a salon residency in the hotel—he was there to give a few lucky folks a makeover. The hair, make-up, and styling session bestowed upon Fred and Susan Denischuk and their daughter Melanie Jaskiw was a silent auction prize at the Viennese Opera Ball. For the lowly among us, that’s one of the big charity galas on the New York City social calendar, thrown by the U.S.-Austrian Chamber of Commerce. It’s the kind of ball where ladies wear long gowns and men are required to wear "white tie and decorations."
It’s held at the Waldorf-Astoria, but it was the smaller but still luxurious Kimberly Hotel which donated the rooms for the Denischuk family to claim their makeover prize last month.

'Real Housewives of Atlanta' Kick It in the ATL's W Hotels
The domestic divas on The Real Housewives of Atlanta hang out so much at the ATL's W Hotels they practically have become spokeswomen for the hotel brand. NeNe, Kim and the rest of the hair-pulling gang use the W Buckhead, W Midtown and W Perimeter as their personal playgrounds.
We can't wait to see if Sheree can pull of a real fashion show—with actual clothes this time—at the W Perimeter in an upcoming episode. According to Metromix Atlanta, Sheree arrived at the hotel in a horse-drawn carriage and when she opened the door, doves flew out. All of the housewives were there, as were celebs like singer Angie Stone, crooner Bobby Valentino and Project Runway favorite alum Mychael Knight. We won't be tardy for that party when it airs.

Rachel Zoe Switches Her New York Hotel Loyalty
Alright, we'll admit it: we are totally addicted to the Bravo Show The Rachel Zoe Project, which follows top Hollywood stylist Rachel Zoe through runway shows in New York, award show fittings in LA, and everywhere in between. In the first season, Rachel famously occupied the penthouse at the 60 Thompson hotel in the Soho neighborhood of New York City.
When the Thompson LES opened, we knew that it was only a matter of time before Rachel Zoe was calling it "bananas" and making it her new headquarters—as she did in the second season during New York Fashion Week. Her husband Rodger her assistants Taylor and Brad all agreed that the view from the LES' penthouse was very impressive, as was the whole space.
So now you can imagine our surprise to discover that Rachel Zoe has decamped to The Standard.

The Edgewater Hosts The 'Deadliest Catch' Send-Off Party
Fans of Discovery Channel's Deadliest Catch can send off the crab fishermen aboard the Sea Star at the Edgewater Hotel in Seattle on Sept. 13 as the crew prepares to set sail for the Bering Sea off of Alaska’s coast to shoot the show's sixth season.
The Sea Star became famous in 2004 after the Discovery Channel aired the documentary America’s Deadliest Season, starring Capt. Larry Hendricks and his crew. The doc was so successful—more than 100 million viewers worldwide tuned in—that a spin-off reality TV series was created following some crab boats during the fall and winter on the Bering Sea. The Emmy-winning show seems to have a cult following.

Antonio Sabato Jr. Looks for Love (On Camera) at Hilton's Waikoloa Village
Yeah, we’re kinda embarrassed that we think former Calvin Klein manty model Antonio Sabato Jr. is still kinda hot. Maybe it’s his chiseled cheek bones, perfectly tanned skin, and taut, muscular abs, but we will never ever hold his appearance on Ally McBeal against him. Sigh.
The commitment-phobic Italian actor has jumped from daytime to prime time soap operas (and back again), and most recently, playing his hunk-alicious self on Ugly Betty. He managed to wed Alicia Tully Jensen for one whole year, knock up both Virginia Madsen and Kristin Rossetto, and has been linked to Nicolette Scorsese, Vanessa Marcil and Rachael Cook.
Now, at ye old mature age of 36, Sabato, Jr. seems to think he’s ready to settle down (uh huh) and like every D-list celebrity in need of a career refresher (hello, Bret Michaels, Denise Richards, and Janice Dickenson!), he’s hooked up with a reality show to make his dreams come true. Barf.

PC of 'NYC Prep' Throws a Party at the Six Columbus Penthouse
We totally got suckered into the new Bravo TV reality show, NYC Prep. We have no good reason to explain this except that watching rich teenagers do and say stupid things is hilarious when you're 30 years old and you still drink out of a bottle--a wine bottle that is.
Anyways, every epsiode Bravo likes to have the kids do one of two things--something straight out of Gossip Girl plotline or spend a serious amount of money on stuff that average adults could only dream about. In last night's episode, we had both!
Camille, Kelli and a friend toured Harvard while the guyliner-wearing, 18 going on 30, PC threw a small party in the penthouse of the 6 Columbus, a Thompson Hotel on Columbus Circle.

MC Hammer Renews His Vows at Turtle Bay Resort on Oahu
Hammertime happened right here!
We’re island-hopping around Hawaii this week for a few assignments, and stopped by Turtle Bay Resort on Oahu’s North Shore to do a quick tour of the hotel. The 880-acre property is a real stunner with five miles of perfectly uncrowded coastline. If we gave a rat’s ass about golf we're sure we'd be impressed by the Arnold and Fazio pro golf courses, but sadly, the sport is lost on us.
But, as an Oahu wedding or honeymoon destination, Turtle Bay Resort is one of the best.
That’s why MC Hammer (a.k.a. Stanley Burrell) decided to have an impromptu vow renewal with his wife of more than 23 years during a recent spring break stay at the resort. All the Kleenex-worthy drama will air this Sunday on the has been 90’s rapper’s reality TV show, Hammertime on A&E.

'Real World' Season 22 Will Surely Bring Good PR to ME Cancun
ME Cancún, a Sol Mélia resort, is a hotel that is sort of ... well, meh (or shall we say, "MEh"). As we discovered last year, there are plenty of good things about the resort — as we said, pretty people, pretty views, and pretty nice furniture — but there isn't really anything distinguishing it from the properties around it in Cancun.
However. Unbeknownst to us until recently, the 22nd season of MTV's The Real World is already wrapping up filming in sweet, sweet Mexico (thanks, Jaunted!) and guess where the 7-ish strangers picked to live in a house will be living? The ME Cancun. Oh yes.
