<\/p>\n
This is What You Missed Last Month (According To Linux<\/strong>), in which nightlife it-girl Linux<\/a> takes us behind the velvet rope and into the VIP section of Scene-City. Through her extreme (sometimes exaggerated) lens, Linux gives us the tea on what really happened at every party-of-the-century that floods our Instagram feeds. <\/em>(A note from the author: don\u2019t take what she says too seriously \u2014 she\u2019s just a club kid after all).<\/em><\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n How lavish a lifestyle would you lead if you were the most cunt socialite on earth?<\/em> Did you know models off-duty only party in places photography is prohibited? The irony! Are you aware that the richest kids you follow are referencing the less fortunate when they\u2019re snorting lines of mephedrone in abandoned Bushwick warehouses? The juxtaposition! In this world-exclusive edition of Lifestyles of the Bitch & Famous, <\/em>we\u2019ll explore the fabulous and private domains of New York\u2019s exclusive scenesters.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Keeping your diamond-studded finger on the city\u2019s pulse is a lot like the crashing of a subway train: No matter how triggering it is, we just can\u2019t look away. <\/em>And to that I say: Don\u2019t! <\/p>\n <\/p>\n I\u2019m no Robin Leach; in fact, my enemies would claim \u201cLeech\u201d more fitting. My name is Linux, and I am the<\/em> New York Downtown It-Girl. Each and every month I fill you, my loyal and wise-beyond-their-years readers, in on What You Missed<\/em> in our vibrant city\u2019s nightlife circuit. So drink up, besties, we\u2019ve got a lot to get through. <\/em>And yes, <\/em>I\u2019ll hold your hair if you\u2019re feeling sick, but I only ask that you throw up inside<\/em> the Uber Black… I just love<\/em> watching the driver clean it up!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n \nSee on Instagram<\/a>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n <\/p>\n So there I was, bored out of my mind on a Thursday in Manhattan. It was already halfway through the month and not a single stunt had been stunted! Can you imagine writing a column about how major NYC nightlife is and in two damn weeks no bangers had been banged? Thankfully, that was all about to change off the back of New York\u2019s premiere partyboi, Evan Mock<\/a>. HBO\u2019s former pansexual-for-pay king invited all the model-slash-actors to downtown\u2019s iconic <\/em>Iconic Magazines to ring in his newest gig with canned cocktail brand JuneShine. Nothing is funnier to me than a celebrity throwing a party to celebrate them receiving a fat paycheck. As a capitalist, I\u2019ll drink to someone rich getting richer any day! Hours prior to the event, the gang transformed Mulberry Street\u2019s last standing bodega into a Mock-Centric nightclub with a disco ball and DJ booth to match. By 7 PM, people I did not know but did <\/em>recognize began filling up the space as DJs Juju & Booker took control of the music. (Are they a duo or two entities? The world will never know!) By the end of the night, I was sitting on the curb outside, drinking a JuneShine with a random girl waiting for her Uber to take us all to her apartment for afters. All roads in New York somehow lead to being cracked out in a car crossing the bridge at 7 AM!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \nSee on Instagram<\/a>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n <\/p>\n If there\u2019s one thing about me… I love an H&M party. And no, that\u2019s not me kissing ass to get into their Mugler collab next month… *wink*! Part Spring 2023 presentation, part dinner party, the Swedish fashion brand sent cutesie little invites to all our agents to stop by their Williamsburg boutique and experience their latest \u201cIsla Hennes\u201d collection. The whole vibe was Mediterranean Vacation, very White Lotus<\/em> season two tease. This was much-needed schooling on what to wear to such a trip for me, as for the last one I took to the Mediterranean my only fashion reference was Snooki when the Jersey Shore <\/em>cast went to Italy. Upon entering I was immediately greeted with a mezcal on the rocks (my fav!) and shown the newest H&M looks that\u2019ll be hitting the stores this season. After taking out my daddy\u2019s credit card and buying the entire line, I was ushered to the dining room with all the other cool people for a multi-course dinner by renowned chef Camille Becerra. Other notable attendees included superstar Richie Shazam and celebrity stylist Beverly Nguyen. On my way out, a tarot card reader told me a life of fame and excess was on the way for me… I slipped her a twenty. I love you H&M, but next time let\u2019s go to the real <\/em>Mediterranean! Until then, Williamsburg will have to do. Now about that Mugler invite…<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \nSee on Instagram<\/a>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n <\/p>\n When I first moved to NYC, there was only one<\/em> cool party in the city where the DJs played pop music. The name was Heaven on Earth, a monthly by Ty Sunderland<\/a> thrown at downtown\u2019s China Chalet. The spot was a Chinese restaurant by day that Sunderland turned into a pop rave by night. Sunderland would bring in two stripper poles for the crowd to dance on, and, when pop hits like \u201cBad Romance\u201d played, the gays jumped so hard in unison you could feel the entire building shake. (I\u2019m still shocked the floor never caved in!) When you were exhausted from dancing you could smoke a cigarette inside<\/em> over by the bar. Unfortunately, like all good venues in New York, China Chalet closed its doors for good during the pandemic. Five years later, Sunderland took a chance and brought Heaven on Earth back for one night only at Brooklyn\u2019s Sugar Hill Restaurant and Supper Club. To put it lightly: the night was a complete success! <\/em>There\u2019s just something about turning a restaurant into a rave that makes these kids go crazy! Gays, dolls and celebs filled out the multi-room supper club and raged to pop hits until the early morning. Ty brought in the same stripper poles from the China Chalet days, where nobodies felt like somebodies, dancing like J.Lo in Hustlers<\/em> in the thick fog. In a side room, fashion gays gabbed and talked shit with stars like Adam Lambert and Christian Siriano<\/a>. I know I speak for the whole scene when I say: please Ty, bring Heaven on Earth back full time and make her permanent home Sugar Hill!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \nSee on Instagram<\/a>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n <\/p>\n They say having an unexplainable feeling of being famous is an early sign of schizophrenia. If that\u2019s the case, run me my diagnosis, baby, because tonight I feel like a star! At the last moment of March, Korean skincare brand Sulwhasoo spent the dollars <\/em>to celebrate their newest partnership with the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Rules of New York society: when you\u2019re invited to wear a gown to the Met… you wear a gown to the Met. The evening began with a cunty step-and-repeat on the iconic Met steps. My turn for photos was after Ros\u00e9 from Blackpink<\/a> and before Charli XCX<\/a>. Post-red carpet and on the way to the bar, the three of us talked about how excited we are for the upcoming Coachella season (which I am also <\/em>covering right here for PAPER<\/em>… stay tuned!). After picking up our cocktails, we spoke about how much we miss carbs before the three of us posed for even more pictures that the BFA guy chose to not<\/em> tag me in. (You\u2019ll regret this, Mr. BFA!) I later shared a bathroom lip-gloss moment with Song Jia and Duckie Thot<\/a>. Bored of the girls’ bathroom, I took a chance at the men\u2019s, where I ran into friends Diego Villarreal and jewelry designer Austin Smith. The three of us also<\/em> shared a lip-gloss moment. The thick of the party took place in the Met\u2019s Temple of Dendur. I\u2019ve lived through many major nights, but there\u2019s absolutely nothing more iconic than drinking with a bunch of A-Listers around millions of dollars’ worth of ancient Egyptian artifacts! Of course, the night wouldn\u2019t have been complete without a giant goodie bag of Sulwhasoo skincare. If you notice me getting hotter in the next few weeks… it\u2019s not Sulwhasoo, it\u2019s the baby blood we all drank at the Illuminati meeting afterward! <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Related | A Night at the Museum With Sulwhasoo and Ros\u00e9<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Photography, styling and hair: Airik Prince<\/a> <\/br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This is What You Missed Last Month (According To Linux), in which nightlife it-girl Linux takes us behind the velvet rope and into the VIP section of Scene-City.
