    I was running the backstage portrait studio at the Ralph Lauren 50th show and have the following claims from that night:

    1 – Robert De Niro came up for his portrait and i didn't recognize him – he looks really different off camera. I told him to wait for a moment because they were finishing up. I had 60 seconds with him, and the only thing i could think of saying was to point out the restoration work on the ceiling that we'd done for the show.

    2 – I said 'Bruce, can we get you over here for a portrait' – and guided him to a wall, touching his shoulder. Bruce of Springsteen fame.

    3 – I made Anne Hathaway and Jessica Chastain laugh. Anne Hathaway has a really dirty laugh.

    4 – Kanye came into the backstage area and walked right past our lighting, and i greeted him with 'What's up Mr West" – i like to think that he recognized it as a gag on the 'wake up mr west' lyric from the first track on Late Registration.

    5 – I held Anderson Cooper's glasses

    6 – I stood on Steven Spielberg's toe

    • If i were a troll, i'd log into each of my accounts and +1 you many times, but i have but one to give.
      1, 3 & 6 are sublime
