Michael Rubin's White Party: Same Old, Same Old

At 48:33 · chapter starts 45:48

Michael Rubin confirmed to People magazine that he deliberately moved his famous annual white party earlier on the calendar to avoid guests having to choose between it and Taylor Swift's wedding — a move the hosts read as an admission that he knew nobody would choose his party. For a year or two, the white party was a genuine cultural event with real mystery and shocking groupings; now it feels like an obligatory fixture. Jackie is particularly unmoved: the most notable attendee was Alex Earle, who appeared to be with Tom Brady again — a photo that could have been taken any year. The Kardashians were absent, no real news was made, and no 'shit-offs' were spotted. With Taylor's wedding setting the benchmark for the weekend, everything else felt like a consolation prize.
