Multifaceted adj 1. (clothing, personal arts and crafts / jewelry) (of a gem) having many facets 2. having many aspects, abilities, etc.

ith this issue focusing heavily on accessories and jewelry (and, yes, right in time to start making your holiday list!), I can’t help but think of multifaceted gems. Of course, I am speaking of baubles and glittering pieces, but I am also alluding to this month’s profiles. Cover girl and Oscar-winning actress, Marion Cotillard is a woman

of many dimensions. Not just a pretty face, Cotillard has such talent that in every role, she so believably becomes her character—whether Édith Piaf in La Vie En Rose, Adriana in Midnight in Paris or Miranda in The Dark Knight Rises (to name a few). When you meet her in person, however, you are surprised at how soft and sweet she really is. We were thrilled to feature her in autumn’s strong, sleek silhouettes at a spot in Malibu that seemed on top of the world…exactly where Cotillard is in her career. Again, she steps outside herself to portray a modern heroine in our portfolio. World-renowned artist Jeff Koons continues to develop an oeuvre that is literally larger

than life. Over decades, his paintings and sculptures have grown while staying personal. C Magazine was the exclusive outlet that got to be a “fly on the wall” during a very cool discussion between Koons and MOCA’s Jeffrey Deitch, presented by Louis Vuitton. We take you inside Eli and Edythe Broad’s breathtaking home for one unforgettable salon. Ann Getty is a San Francisco doyenne through and through. Besides being philanthropic, she envisions and creates the most beautiful homes. C was proud to showcase the interior designer’s classic Pacific Heights abode in our premiere issue in 2005, and we have been excited to track her vast accomplishments as years pass. She releases a book this autumn that encapsulates every facet of her myriad talents. We present a residence in the Berkeley hills that is warm, homey yet utterly chic…just like Getty herself. And, coming back to our focus: jewels! We sure have loads of them in this issue. Our military-inspired fashion story, the best baubles of the season, and the latest in accessories news will have you covered head to toe, sparkling

Parabellum’s new line hits the streets

A WRITTEN BY KELSEY McKINNON

mid scattered piles of responsibly sourced bison hides in their Hollywood loft, Mike Feldman and Jason Jones launched Parabellum in 2007, crafting unisex leather accessories. The supple belts (reinforced with bullet-proof Kevlar), bags, iPhone and laptop cases feature high-tech ceramic hardware that feels like glass but is so strong that the duo’s supplier also produces equipment for NASA spacecrafts. Colette, MaxďŹ eld and Union quickly snapped up the line as big design houses scrambled to emulate the exquisite construction—but to no avail. Collaborations with Oliver Peoples, and Blackman Cruz followed, and, after years in development, the duo unveils a women’s handbag line this fall. “There’s a lot of intent,â€? says Jones of the Emmeline Tote and the Medicine Woman styles. “We thought about what would be the best thing we could make without any [ďŹ nancial or material] restrictions. And this is it.â€? Available at MaxďŹ eld; parabellumcollection.com°ĂŠU

he Grove receives a staggering 18 million visitors a year. That’s more than the Great Wall of China and the Eiffel Tower. The European-style outdoor shopping center opened 10 years ago on the dusty corner of Fairfax and Third streets. “The Farmers Market was long forgotten,â€? recalls retail magnate Rick Caruso. “The Grove really kicked off a rejuvenation of this area.â€? Impeccably coiffed, the second-generation Angeleno has since brought his alluring concept of shoppable city streets to nine other SoCal communities. And this year, Caruso AfďŹ liated broke ground on the ďŹ rm’s ďŹ rst primarily residential development, a sleek, eight-story glass tower with classic Modernist curves called 8500 Burton, about which Caruso says, “George Jetson should be landing on that building.â€?

nnie Campbell was working as an actress in L.A. when she got her big break in 2010. Childhood pal and event designer Amy Blessing had a friend who needed help with a dinner party. “So Amy says, ‘Oh, hire Annie. She has a catering business!’” recounts the Portland native. A lifelong cook but admittedly not a professional, Campbell whipped up an expert menu of minted curry pea soup and tomato bread pudding. Three years later, her eponymous Laurel Canyon-based company has become a thriving family affair: Campbell, at the helm, designs and executes original courses; neighbor Blessing co-conspires on all things decor; and their respective husbands, writer Greg Murnion and cinematographer David Jones, stand in as bartender, music consultant and house photographer. Après Fête chronicles the group’s efforts in glowy blog detail, from mint mojitos and saffron rosewater ice cream, at Jenni Kayne’s Moroccan-themed 30th birthday, to lingonberry cocktails, dill-flecked buttered egg noodles and Hansel and Gretel-worthy gingerbread houses at a Swedish Christmas feast. Irrespective of themes, mix and match crystal, fireside s’mores and parlor games (Celebrity is a favorite), Campbell points to one crucial ingredient: “You have to have a couple of funny storytellers. It doesn’t matter how good the food is or how beautiful the table is—if you take it all too seriously, then you’re part of an art project. At the end of the day, it’s about bringing people together.” apresfete.blogspot.com. •

ountless iconic masterpieces have been conceived in the atelier above Cartier’s Paris agship—opened by Alfred Cartier in 1899—from the famed 69.42-carat, pear-shaped diamond Richard Burton gave to Elizabeth Taylor in 1969 to the audacious gold crocodile necklace commissioned by the late Mexican actress MarĂ­a FĂŠlix in 1975. Cartier’s ďŹ rst handbag collection debuted in the early 1900s with spun gold and pleated mesh purses and bejeweled minaudières—a category relaunched in 2007 with its classic Marcello day handbag. From the beginning, the brand excelled in fashionable goods, including the daring Flapper vanity case built to ďŹ t only a lipstick, comb and cigarettes. This season, the house continues to give stylish ladies something to hold onto with an expanded set of offerings inspired by the past. “Today’s woman still wants the same thing,â€? says Director of Leather Creation Marlin Yuson. “The designs are more contemporary and graphic, but the spirit is still very much about a beautiful object that a woman covets.â€? Three ultra-sleek styles—box-shape and elongated clutches, and evening purses—are clad in materials of decadence: black crocodile and python skins, satin with silver silk-thread embroidery, and a hard guillochĂŠ shell. The pièce de rĂŠsistance: a solid-silver Panthère clasp, speckled with black lacquer or onyx, and brilliant-cut diamonds, and framed by two Russian-faceted cabochons in chrysoprase, onyx or carnelian. “For Cartier, evening bags are like jewelry,â€? adds Yuson. “[This is] something unique, timeless and truly glamorous.â€?

he L.A. woman is laid-back and casual, but she also craves that element of sparkle,â€? says ďŹ ne jewelry designer Anita Ko. Since rolling out her namesake line in 2006 with a diamond circle necklace carried at MaxďŹ eld (which sold to Cameron Diaz, no less), the PaciďŹ c Palisades-born tastemaker has garnered a fan-base of fashion aristocrats—among them Jacqui Getty and Daphne Guinness—in search of elegance with edge: rose gold Spike bracelets, black diamond Snake rings, white-gold and pavĂŠ diamond Wings necklaces. She crafts designs from her expansive, art-ďŹ lled Beverly Hills studio, where paintings by JosĂŠ ParlĂĄ and Phil Frost, and a teddy bear dipped in tar by Mattia Biagi, hang in the lounge.

Ko’s latest venture is a six-piece capsule collection for modernchic womenswear line Tibi. “I really wanted the look to be beautiful but without fuss. Clean and luxurious— just like Amy Smilovic [Tibi’s designer and her client],â€? Ko says of the white-diamond bar earrings and dagger necklaces, which are currently available at Tibi’s N.Y. agship. For something a bit more exclusive, Ko will soon debut a line of one-of-a-kind diamond collectibles. “I’m inspired by everyone from the matriarch in Bel Air to the ’80s punk-rock kids I knew growing up here; [these] are going to have quite an impact.â€? >Â˜ÂˆĂŒ>ÂŽÂœ°Vœ“°ĂŠU

Booked solid a year out at his dual beauty salons in Union Square and Silicon Valley, stylist Alex Chases exercises politesse and intense focus as devoted clients flock to him for perfect blonde tones and delicate ombré effects. At the end of the day, Chases retires to his serene ninth-floor apartment overlooking the Bay and downtown San Francisco. The two-bedroom Nob Hill flat, in a clean-lined Modernist building, has been cleared of extraneous flourishes and color during his decade in residence. White rules. “For me, less is more. It’s wonderful in the evening to have this tranquil retreat waiting,” says Chases. “There’s no distraction, no clutter, and no sounds except the bells of Grace Cathedral chiming the hour. I can dream, read, study and clear my head.” The space has been systematically edited without the assistance of a decorator; Chases is a master of composition and no stranger to design showrooms. Relics of his previous passions— coral Fortuny fabrics and antique Burmese cinnabar lacquer—have been pared down and replaced with a fresh tableau: sculptural fROm ABOvE chairs, a lacquered Chinoiserie coffee table and lavish silk taffeta curtains. lEft Antique While spaces pay full attention to sparkling cityscapes, every detail appears florentine marble spheres, in high relief. The La Jolla native’s collection of rare design books is corralled obelisks and in a foyer cabinet. Hydrangeas and ranunculus are white, naturally. urns; art is by lynn Hershman. A consummate entertainer, he favors an eclectic table, especially Hermès Alex Chases. Toucan place settings for dinner parties. The roster of clients and guests the curtains in the living includes art philanthropist Frances Bowes, San Francisco Chief of Protocol room are ivory Charlotte Shultz, animal healthcare activist Vanessa Getty, social empress silk taffeta.

T

hough born into the Bonny Doon family, Jonathan Grahm didn’t pursue dessert winemaking—only desserts. “Go figure,” he shrugs. For the prodigious proprietor of 62-year-old Compartes in Brentwood, chocolate is all he has known since he took over the store at 21 and began to produce ganache truffles. Colorful designs adorn each: flamingos on pear-cheese; argyle patterns on toasted pine-nut; lime-green chevrons on lemongrass. His divine caramels and exotic bars are all influenced by art, fashion and travel, whether the shocking neon gradient of Venice Beach at sunset, Día de los Muertos skulls or Peruvian forests. He lives, eats and sleeps chocolate; a journal by his bedside even logs flavor combinations from his dreams. Seems those visions have been embraced; now 28, the Angeleno has been listed in this year’s Forbes 30-under-30 for Food and Beverage—surrounded by bigwigs like Flour + Water’s Thomas McNaughton. Yet, he insists, “I stay in my own lane. I don’t want to be everywhere.” So where is he? Crafting gifts for Chloé and Diesel, and at the Santa Monica Museum of Art, where he painted Beatrice Wood’s iconic stick-figure sketch onto salted treats to fête a recent retrospective. This month, a shop in Japan will join seven recent openings and 100 future pop-ups in the country. The wunderkind will also unveil a handsome redesign of his L.A. tasting salon. There, 34 new indulgences are now stunningly displayed against black-and-white ikat tiling. What’s more, a second kitchen means he’ll launch nationwide. “I get goose bumps thinking about my bars at The Plaza Hotel,” he says. And until he realizes his fantasy of retiring to a cacao plantation in Kauai, a new office, complete with hammock, will do. 912 S. Barrington Ave., L.A., 310-826-3380; compartes.com. •

intage fashion proprietor, designer and snazzy man-about-town, Cameron Silver has come a long way since 1997, when the former cabaret crooner set up shop on Melrose Avenue. “I did vintage because I didn’t think the world needed another multi-brand retailer,â€? explains Silver of Decades. “And here I am, still hustlin’ the vintage.â€?

Fitzgerald and Josephine Baker, to Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy and Patricia Field, Silver also highlights trends: the Orientalist craze of the 1910s, the ’60s pillbox hat moment and the high-low looks of the 1990s. There are proďŹ les of one glamorous designer per era, and Silver never forgets to ďŹ t each into the canon. “I always say that there is nothing new to do in fashion,â€? says Silver. “I want you to look at an early ’70s image and reference something that is turnof-the-century, like Fortuny pleats.â€? Over the years, Silver’s horizons have expanded: He has unearthed treasures from the late Princess Irene Galitzine’s wardrobe and dressed the likes of RenĂŠe Zellweger, Nicole Kidman and Dita Von Teese. He’s even starring in an upcoming Bravo reality series this winter, “Dukes of Melrose.â€? That said, the book project (with three more in the pipeline) was pivotal. “You know what surprised me?

Hollywood stage with leading roles in The Dark Knight Rises, Inception and Contagion. “It really changed my life into something very exciting and very happy,” she says. One of the many perks of her post-Oscar fame was that she got to meet her childhood hero, Steven Spielberg. “I went back to this little girl watching his movies and dreaming about being an actress and telling stories I cared about,” she says of meeting the director at an event. Raised on a steady diet of cinema by an actress mother and her actor-director-mime father, Cotillard always wanted to perform. A childhood fantasy was to be in the British television show “Absolutely Fabulous.” She still would like to appear in an American comedy. (The only television she watches now is “Mad Men.”) Her unimaginable level of success has also scored her a front-row seat to the high-fashion world, even though that was never a goal. Four years ago, she became an ambassador to Christian Dior, and she credits former designer John Galliano with teaching her to appreciate the industry she previously found shallow and intimidating. “I discovered that it was an art form, not just people who are thinking about fabric,” says Cotillard. With her one-year-old son and his father, Cotillard’s French actor-writer-director beau Guillaume Canet, she hopscotches Paris, New York and Los Angeles, where she’d like to buy a house one day in her favorite neighborhood, Los Feliz. She particularly likes Griffith Park. “I find Los Angeles very inspiring,” she says. “It’s a city in nature, and I love that.” A couple of years ago, she came to L.A. with some friends to play music and hang out. They could have gone anywhere in the world. She adds, “I was in France and I kind of missed being here.” Cotillard has toured and recorded with Yodelice, a French Expressionist-Surrealist band fronted by friend, composer Maxim Nucci. Her instruments are bass guitar, keyboard and tambourine; she performs with them as a man under the pseudonym “Simone,” the name of her grandmother. “Singing is something that I need in my life,” she says. Besides playing music, during her “time off” she’d like to travel more within California. She wants to check out Big Sur and visit her brother in San Francisco, where he works in the tech industry. She’s also planning to spend some time settling down at her apartment in Paris. “I just want to stay home and enjoy my friends and family and do simple things,” she says. Easier said than done for someone who wears so many hats. •

“[winning an Oscar is] an amazing thing, but it’s the cherry On the cake. and it has tO stay the cherry On the cake.”

n an unusually drizzly morning in Hollywood, the jaded hostess at Chateau Marmont knew someone was waiting for a reporter on the otherwise empty back patio, but no, she had not seen French actress Marion Cotillard. Turns out that this someone was Cotillard, incognito, in a fedora. She started wearing hats after her 2007 Oscar-winning role as singer Édith Piaf in La Vie En Rose because she had to shave her eyebrows and part of her head to fully portray the tortured chanteuse. Plus, the intense role just exhausted her. “I looked like shit,” she says, laughing. It seems unlikely that Cotillard could look anything but flawless. The star—who’s wearing red studded Chloé boots, a Dior watch, a white knit sweater and a blue print Isabel Marant skirt—appears even more ethereal in real life than she does on the big screen. Her makeup-free, smooth skin looks far younger than her 37-year-old contemporaries. She swears plastic surgery scares her, and no surgeon is that good. Cotillard had just returned from the film festival in Telluride and was heading to the one in Toronto in a few hours to promote Rust and Bone, her new French film, out this month. “I’m taking some time off, even though it doesn’t show right now,” says Cotillard. “You need to go back to your own life sometimes, to get inspired again.” In the movie, she plays a killer whale trainer at an Antibes water park who suffers a horrible accident that costs her both legs. “I read the script and thought it was one of the most beautiful love stories,” she says. “I’m attracted to very deep characters and complexity that leads you to discover different levels of humanity.” Rust and Bone co-writer and director Jacques Audiard agrees. “What Marion did in La Vie En Rose really stuck with me,” he says. “I knew that one day or another I would go to her. She has a way of throwing herself into scenes—as if she’s launching herself off a high diving board. It’s scary.” But first, she had to get over her distaste for animal parks. “I’d rather see whales in their own environment and not in a swimming pool,” says Cotillard, an activist who’s involved with Greenpeace. “I will never go back to a Sea World.” The relatively “ugly” role is already garnering Oscar buzz— not that Cotillard admits she’s listening. “It’s an amazing thing, but it’s the cherry on the cake,” she says. “And it has to stay the cherry on the cake.” Since becoming the second French woman to win an Academy Award for Best Actress, she has dominated the

n 1994, San Francisco-born musician/songwriter John Getty acquired the Temple of Wings residence in the Berkeley hills. This rare gem amid the neighborhood’s many architectural jewels was originally conceived by Bernard Maybeck in 1911 and built in 1914 as a residence and studio for dance teacher Florence Treadwell Boynton, her husband Charles and their seven children. Among visitors to Temple of Wings was famed modern dancer Isadora Duncan, one of Boynton’s childhood friends. Though strongly influenced by utopian ideals of classical revival architecture, Maybeck accommodated the Boynton family’s more practical requirements for a year-round residence. The original Maybeck Greco-Roman structure burned in a 1923 hillside fire (but the columns remained), and it was later rebuilt. Eighteen years ago, John Getty assumed the task of continuing its painstaking restoration, and, naturally, turned to his mother, Ann Getty, to achieve the historically-accurate Arts and Crafts interiors of the Greek temple-inspired residence. For this project, Ann Getty’s 40 years of study in historic decorative arts and in-depth research around the world took on the late-Victorian cult of beauty. (The Aesthetic Movement links late-Victorian revivalism with the coming of Arts and Crafts style.) The resulting rooms are period-perfect and, yet, suitable for entertaining and full-time residency. Over the course of three years, Getty exacted every design detail—from the antique velvet textiles to deep-pillowed sofas. With frequent trips to London to collect paintings, hand-woven carpets and rare porcelain pieces from this specific era, she created a superbly polished and authentic Aesthetic Movement look for the romantic, colonnaded building. Rooms glow with collections of Art Nouveau vases by Daum Nancy and Émile Gallé. Walls are painted in James MacNeil Whistler-inspired peacock blue and pale, golden wheat tones. Getty’s extraordinary eye comes as no surprise to friends and family. Passionate about textiles, ceramics and traditional craft, she voyaged to hidden corners of China, Burma, Vietnam, India and Egypt long before they were fashionable destinations for designers. In previous decades, even before she opened Ann Getty & Associates in 1997, the San Francisco interior designer/philanthropist curated a varied lot: a romantic Turkish-inspired interior in the Bay Area; an English country-house influenced, chintz-accented bedroom in the Sacramento Valley; a poetic Georgian study with peacock-feather walls in Pacific Heights; and a Presidio Heights living room with alluring French silk curtains. These rooms are featured in a new design monograph, Ann Getty: Interior Style, published by Rizzoli. “I always take my lead from the existing architecture and, in this case, the Berkeley structure had an eccentric and intriguing background,” says Getty. “I feel that it is important to listen to the client and incorporate their lifestyle continued on page 128

hether skewering art history, repositioning objects associated with childhood, or aggressively confronting our pop culture ideals, Jeff Koons’ bold wit is unmistakable. This past September, the acclaimed artist spoke with MOCA Director Jeffrey Deitch about his formative years and how it has made him the auction record-holder he is today. The ďŹ rst of this year’s three MOCA and Louis Vuitton Art Talks took place at the Frank Gehry-designed home of Edythe and Eli Broad in Brentwood. Louis Vuitton continues its longtime patronage with a new extension launching this fall. Of the Louis Vuitton Young Arts Program with MOCA, says President and CEO of North America ValĂŠrie Chapoulaud-Floquet: “Over the course of nine months, 30 high-school students from the Los Angeles area will work closely with artists Edgar Arceneaux and Retna, gaining professional and personal development through this immersive and engaging journey through the creative process.â€? JEFFREY DEITCH So this is a very special occasion for Jeff and for me. We’ve had a friendship and a dialogue going back 30 years or more. The process of how someone goes from a relatively conventional boyhood in York, Pennsylvania, growing up in the 1950s, and becomes one of the most inuential artists in the world. This is an extraordinary story‌ JEFF KOONS I learned aesthetics through my father. My father had a furniture store and he was a decorator [Henry J. Koons Interiors]. And people say that I am particular. I picked this up from my father. At Christmas time, if we put up a Christmas tree, every Christmas tree ball would be completely polished. If there was a little hole in the tree, you know, we would cut a branch off of another part of the tree and wire it up in that area. My mother’s side of the family—my grandfather in York was City Treasurer—and I always felt that I picked up a kind of political side from my grandfather. And when I say political, just to survive, to have a sense that, you know, you can take care of yourself, and within your community try to achieve things and do things—and that

it was possible to be able to expand one’s parameter. JD You made a special trip from Maryland Institute College of Art to meet Salvador DalĂ­. JK I always liked DalĂ­ and this process of self-acceptance. Automatically, Surrealism is in tune with this journey inward. It’s one of the reasons I love Surrealism: this path of going inward and kind of accepting the not external, but internal self. My mother told me she read that DalĂ­ stayed at the St. Regis Hotel in New York and he’d be there half the year. So I called him up. He answered the phone, and he told me that if I wanted to meet him that would be great: Come to New York. He would be downstairs that Saturday in the lobby of the St. Regis Hotel at noon. I went there, and sure enough, right at noontime he was there. I was very young and nervous. I was just thrilled to meet him and that he took the time to meet with me. JD After the Maryland Institute, you attended the Art Institute of Chicago and Ed Paschke had a big impact on your work. JK He’d say, “Jeff, you know, let me show you this light at this bar over on the Westside,â€? and he’d take me to these clubs, and they’d be some of the strangest clubs in the world. But there would be this light. Like, you’d look at the curtain and maybe the curtain is green, but it’d have yellow lights on it. And he would show me midget bars—just different source material. What he was teaching was that everything is already here, and it’s about looking. JD And here is your best-known piece from Banality. JK This is, I think, my PietĂ . If you look at Michael Jackson, you kind of have the pyramid in the leg. It’s like the three pyramids of Giza there. But it’s making reference to Renaissance structure and the PietĂ . I wanted, in the Banality show, to have a symbol of a contemporary Christ ďŹ gure. I needed spiritual ďŹ gures there that people would go along with as self-acceptance and accepting their cultural histories, accepting the things they respond to in life and to go along with it. I had people like St. John, I had Michael Jackson and Bubbles. I had Buster Keaton. JD This is really the ďŹ rst work you actually put into CONTINUED ON PAGE 128

To those who imagine Getty’s life as one long jet-set spree of galas and gowns: The decorator is, in fact, a devoted and hard worker. She stitches silk passementeries on pillows, repairs antique carpets and has even taking up a needle and thread to fix upholstery (like the night in 2003 when she debuted Ann Getty House Collection furniture at the Shears & Window showroom).

your catalogue raisonnĂŠ. Inflatable Flower and Bunny (Tall White and Pink Bunny) is from the

Broads’ collection. JK I think this is 1979. It’s the first rabbit. I would buy these inflatables, and what I always liked about this piece was I felt that making this work I was always breaking away from my sexuality, my own being. I was going outward and making more objective work. Yet, there is something that is still so strong there in the color and the intensity of those greens, and the pink, and the orange— that it’s almost like there’s no need to get rid of that. And eventually, I learned there is no need to remove the self. JD I always see so much of you in the work, and I always identified you with that rabbit. JK We’re inflatables. We take a breath, we inhale and we exhale, and I think you can look at an inflatable and feel that relationship, but we feel kind of dense inside. We have blood, guts, brains, and it’s very vacuous out here. It’s empty. JD And this is [the] Statuary [Series]. JK There were 10 different objects, and one of them was the rabbit‌

I was really trying to show my own history of the ready-made‌ To me, the rabbit—it’s like they used to put in their yards in Pennsylvania at Easter time‌ The head is like the gazing ball. I also think of it as reference to Dalí. It’s a little bit like The Great Masturbator with the carrot to the mouth. It’s like an orator, like [us] sitting here with microphones; a symbol of the Playboy Bunny. So it has many different references, which helps give it this kind of iconic quality depending on what you see in it or kind of what you need to see in it. The only other thing I want to add is this aspect of the inflatable: When they’re inflated, it’s a symbol of optimism—it’s life. When they’re deflated, it’s our last breath—simple death. When I see one deflated, it’s so sad. So the rabbit is a symbol of, you know, eternal life. JD In January, 2014, we have the honor of hosting Jeff’s definitive retrospective. This is still just the beginning; there is a lot more zcoming. And we look forward to

michael Jackson and madonna at the academy awards, 1991 a week before the 1991 academy awards, michael Jackson and madonna (who attended together) met at the ivy to coordinate their looks. as they pulled up to the shrine auditorium, Jackson stepped out in gold-tipped cowboy boots, a glittering diamond brooch and not one, but two gloves. on his arm, the “material girl” beamed in a low-cut, pearl-encrusted bob mackie gown, a fur stole dripping off her shoulders and $20 million in diamonds on loan from jeweler harry winston. host billy crystal welcomed the pop star on stage for her performance of stephen sondheim’s oscar-winning original song for Dick Tracy, “sooner or later (i always Get my man),” as, “the nc-17 portion of our really big show.” PhotograPh by ron galella
