To Do: Monologue. Deuce, Starstruck
· Tonight at Ivar, 10 actors risk humiliation and the instant obliteration of their promising careers as they compete in front of celebrity judges (including Andy Dick, Sarah Silverman, and some agent and studio types) in the Manhattan Monologue Slam. The winner is flown to New York to compete against the East Coast competition's winner, while the losers...well, let's just say they've all kissed their families goodbye before the event.
· Page Six says Orlando Bloom, Adrien Brody, Robert Downey Jr., Gina Gershon and Jeremy Piven will be at Forty Deuce tonight to launch the Bravo TV series (Forty Deuce, duh) tonight. So if the publicist who told them that turns out to be wrong, direct your hate mail directly to the Sixers.
· Author Michael Joseph Gross signs his book Starstuck at Book Soup, a memoir examining the relationship between fans and the celebrities they adore. Several celebrities will be on display in Lucite cages for better illustration of the book's principals. OK, not really, but we're sure a handful of 20s and a quick sweep through the lobby of the Standard could make it happen.
