Most mesh together. Lately I’ve found the faces in the background way more interesting than the ones front and center. Hardly a celebrity but someone I’ve been fascinated by lately is Dasha Zhukova - Russian heiress, used to date Marat Safin before meeting/marrying Roman Abramovich. She was once listed in Vanity Fair’s most eligible heirs & heiresses alongside Jared Kushner, Ivanka Trump, Armie Hammer, & Stavros Niarchos. She used to party with Stavros’ sister Eugenie & Camilla Al Fayed (Dodi’s sister) a lot in the mid-aughts. She split with Roman back in 2017 and now she’s dating Stavros, but Roman’s still funneling money to her and building a huge mansion for her in Manhattan, probably to protect his assets. When the feds raided Oleg Deripaska’s shit back in October (the oligarch Paul Manafort was shilling for), Dasha was found to be living there. She created Garage magazine, too, if anyone’s familiar with that. She hangs with that celebrity circle that was buddy buddy with the Trumps before 2016 (and still is on the down low) - Karlie Kloss & Joshua Kushner, Ashton Kutcher, Jen Meyer (Tobey Maguire’s ex-wife, daughter of one of the heads of NBC), Leonardo DiCaprio, the Foster sisters, Rupert Murdoch’s ex-wife Wendi Deng (who I used to find equally gossip-worthy but she hasn’t really done much this past year), Derek Blasberg (not really a celebrity, just a glad-hander with delusions of Truman Capote-esq grandeur IMO), etc. She was also a guest of Ivanka’s at the inauguration, which is funny (to me at least) because Ivanka was by Paris’ side during the endless Stavros/Paris drama back in the day. Also funny: Dasha threw a holiday party with Stavros & Derek Blasberg a few weeks ago and Mary-Kate Olsen was there… to be a fly on the wall. She has an Insta, @mamasinthebuilding, but it’s private. You’ll see her tagged in a lot of celebrity photos on Instagram, though, which makes the Trump-Russia stuff, at least the financial aspect, funny to me since people either see it as a crazy conspiracy or a completely believable plot that’s just limited to the Trumps, when that same money has been flowing through Hollywood for years, the Trumps were just the only celebs that decided to get greedy and go for gold/the presidency. A good amount of the celebrities that criticize them, or make their #DearIvanka Instagram posts, are the same ones rubbing elbows with the wives & children of oligarchs at parties. Anyway, you can find some good stuff about Dasha on LaineyGossip. Aside from that circle, I haven’t really kept tabs on anyone else. I do keep a cautious eye on Heather Locklear since the Melrose Place/Dynasty fan in me can’t help it. But as far as Young Hollywood goes, I don’t even know who that consists of these days - I see names, I see faces, and I draw a blank.
