Mr. Perez Goes To Washington
Saturday night at the White House Correspondent's Dinner was such an amazing night and a unique opportunity! Truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Thanks to everyone at Bloomberg for inviting Perez, and thanks to D.C. for welcoming us with open arms.
We had the best time ever!
We feel very passionate about this upcoming election and the nomination process. We've been writing about politics on our site for a while now, so it made sense and felt right that Perez was at the Correspondent's Dinner.
The big soiree was held at the Washington Hilton and before the actual dinner, we made it to the Bloomberg, Reuters, People/TIME and Newsweek pre-parties.
Thankfully, we just stuck to water all night long or we wouldn't have made it all the way through the evening. The people in D.C. sure know how to drink!
We ran into Ashlee & Pete at one of the pre-parties, and - no - we didn't see Simpson drinking any alcohol.
The dinner itself was so lovely, especially because we were seated next to the amazing amazing Tracey Ullman at the Bloomberg table we were at. We've mentioned her new Showtime series a few times and have been a huge fan of her work forever, so it was such a treat to get to meet her and break bread. She had even requested to be sat next to Perez!!!! So surreal!
Salman Rushdie came over to say hi too. WTF???? Ya!
Craig Ferguson was the host for the evening and we think he was funny from what we were able to make out. We could barely understand what he was saying, though - his accent was especially thick last night!
We don't want to give him too much credit, but….President Bush was actually sorta humorous. He's still a douche, but at least a douche with the ability to be funny (thanks to great writers that scripted all his witty remarks).
Tracey Ullman and her friend dragged us over to meet the evil genius that is Karl Rove. That is pure comedy!
Seated a table away from the former Puppetmaster was Katie Couric. When Miz Ullman went to introduce Perezzers to the lame duck CBS Evening News host, all that Katie did was wag her finger at P-Nasty and give him a smirk.
We wagged our finger back - better - and smirked back harder!
The Jonas Brothers are always just the nicest guys around, and we were lucky enough to spend several minutes chatting wit them.
The Jonai are big fans of Eric Hutchinson. How awesome is that?????
Kevin, Nick and Joe were definitely the biggest draw of the room, attracting hordes of girls coming up to ask for an autograph or pic.
We peeped Martha Stewart out of the corner of our eye taking pic of us as we were chatting with the Jonas Brothers. Maybe she'll put that up on her blog?
Despite all the "drama" that you may have read about, Spencer & Heidi made it to the Correspondent's Dinner after all! They told us they were guests of Fortune magazine, after MSNBC backed out on paying for their hotel and airfare.
Lauren Conrad was also an invited guest of Bloomberg's, but they kept her at a separate table from us. Sad.
After the dinner, we walked to the Bloomberg after-party at the Costa Rican Embassy, which was phenomenal. That party is on par with something you'd see at the Oscars. The budget to put it on, we were told, was way more than $1 million…and it showed!
Bloomberg completely converted the Embassy into their own super-swank party space, and it was just soooo rad. We got to meet Donatella Versace, whose lips don't look as huge in person as they do in pictures. Thankfully, they've deflated!
Pamela Anderson's boobs are just as big as ever, and we chatted with her for a hot second about her upcoming E! reality show, which she doesn't like calling a reality show.
We even got to chat with John McCain's daughter, who says she reads PerezHilton.com every day. She didn't seem to mind when we did THIS!
After the Bloomberg party, we headed over to the Newseum for the Capitol File bash.
We were able to chat politics with Rosario Dawson, who is very involved with Voto Latino. She's not publicly endorsing any one candidate - she's just urging people to get out and VOTE.
Do it!
Pete Wentz was DJing the Capitol File party and Lauren Conrad was there. As soon as Spencer and Heidi showed up and entered the VIP area she was at, though, L.C. practically ran away and left the party.
It may be Washington, but it's still Hollywood!
What If…
Our D.C. Scrapbook

Thx for the pics Perez. Bit overdone in the makeup department though!
LULZ! Karl ROVE and PEREZ HILTON BFFS? Too fucking funny.
Amazing Perez!!!
To think of all the things you are accomplishing. Enjoy all your success! You deserve it!
BTW-You look fabulous. How much weight have you lost??
HUUUUUUGGGGG!!!!!!
President Bush was hilarious! " Hillary was dodging sniper fire and OBAMA IS AT CHURCH" Great writers and GWB dropped the lines perfectly. Someday you'll realize he's not this monster you (and so many kool-aid drinker readers of yours) want him to be. I love him!
hey perezzz ,good for you, you deserved all your success made me addicted , and by the way you look greeatt, good luck on 07/04/2008 y arriba los latinos!!!
What the HELL was Perez Hilton doing at a Correspondant party?
And to think….I didnt the QUEEN would be there. You perass were their token, most popular at the moment, gay guy/
i'm glad you enjoyed my town, it's nice to have some hollywood in the DC. it's always nice to read your blog (not because of all the A+ celebrity news) but because you have other interesting stories and inputs. good job keeping me entertained in law school.
ah is it not more like this little PIGGIEY went to market
Yeah, it's not Obama's fault that Michigan & Florida aren't counted either, no matter what Billary want you to beleive. Rules are rules and she agreed to it… when she was leading.
I dont want ANOTHER liar in the white house, Go Obama!
Latinos for Obama!
Gays for Obama!

Perez…I really envy you right now…Way to go, Baby!!!
xox, ilona rose
P.S. As always, thanks for sharing…
Glad you had fun, everyone's all dressed up and the jonas brothers were lookin pretty spiffy as was yourself.
Thanks for all the news about it
Perez… you looked FABULOUS tonight!! Had no idea how potty mouthed Pete Wentz was, but still a great dj…. I think Craig was slightly drunk hence him being a Scotsman!! Hope you enjoyed DC, we loved having you and hope you come again soon
You ungrateful little prick. The entire shindig is set up and revolves around the President. The only "douche" is you. He should have thrown your ass right out of there.
Perez, you are looking very nice! It's definitely visible that you've been working out! I will love you no matter what your weight, but you definitely seem happier and healthier and that's all that matters. I'm away at college in western MD, but I wish I could have dropped in to DC tonight!

wow Perez you look really good.
WOW, you think you are a D.C. insider after you spent all of 24 hours there. You are a FUCKING moron! Go spend more time with Heidi and Spencer in FAKE L.A., they are way more your type than the REAL D.C. crowd. I am honestly embarrassed as an American that you were invited anywhere near D.C. You are a FUCKING hack! Enjoy what's left of your fifteen minutes. You're a loser!!
of course they kept lc away from ur an asss just like spenceer and heidi
I read your blog everyday, but now that you are such BFF's with spedi, you have lost so much cred in my (and it sounds like a lot of others) books…
You look really really good. The weight seems to be falling off. Me..not so lucky.
Perez-
Why do you always refer to yourself as "we"? I don't get that. You are one person. One
From 4 years ago until NOW .You have amazed even me.
Not bad Perez! Blogging your way to Washington.
Looks like you had a good time, but you know they ALL hate you behind your back don't you?
Love the pic of you and Ashlee & Pete. You guys have like the coolest hair ever, lol.
Man, are they scraping the bottom of the barrel in DC, or what?
Speidi?
Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz, for God's sake??
PEREZ HILTON??
I hope Tracey Ullman makes good a sketch out of meeting you.Nice make up. You look like a wax figure.
Re: Mary – You are an imbecile.
You must have had so much fun!!
Re: Kara – You should read a paper or a book sometime. It's the editorial "we" douchebag. LOOK IT UP before emabarrassing yourself.
What are you, 8 or something?
Re: JMM – It just goes to show you what a JOKE the whole event is! Perez,Dubya with a bunch of has-beens, attention whores and self-congratulatory gasbags. My night was waaaaaaaay more stimulating!!! On another note, kudos Perez: you're actually starting to look somewhat like a man! Keep up the good work!
This is ay better than CSPAN, lolol.
Perez,
You looked incredibly wonderful last night. Really gorgeous!
Way to go.
Love.
About the Prez, Perez…I had the opportunity to meet him a few years ago (unscripted and without writers) and his policies may suck from time to time, but, the man IS very witty, charming and intelligent. I know, I know…not three words usually associated with "W", but it's the truth. He spent more time with me than I thought he would, took more pictures with me than he probably wanted to take, and he addressed my concerns (as a military spouse) with clarity, honesty and compassion. As a registered Democrat, I was completely surprised and humbled by the experience. Too bad everyone can't have a one on one with Prez Bush. I think you'd see him wayyyyy differently if you could. And, dare I say, he's kinda hot in person too. And Laura Bush has the most flawless skin I have ever seen. One more thing Perez…don't you think "douche" is a little childish? You certainly won't gain any political respect by calling a sitting president a douche. You have great political potential to be a moving force in society. To be taken seriously, you must engage seriously. At least whip out your thesaurus and find a grown up word to equate with douche. Use your power wisely Perez!! I'm glad you had an awesome time at the dinner.
o.k. i read it twice…lol, gotta go. have a nice day.
This has been one of the best articles I've ever read on this site. Well done.
Oh, like you even knew who Salman Rushdie was, until Ashlee explained it to you.
So that's what thw stench around here has been this weekend. Take your self-promoting, stretched-out ass back to fagville! Your site used to be entertaining when it was about gossip, but it now seems to be more about you personally. Who cares??
YEAH DC!!!!
I hate Speidi!! What the hell they were doing there?!
It is disgusting that they invited someone like yourself. What about the intellectuals of the world, the movers and shakers, the people who actually care about helping out the real people of the world and not just kissing celebrities' asses. You're an arrogant, FAT, piece of shit.
Well of COURSE the Jonas Brothers are the nicest guys around!
And they like Eric Hutchinson? Awesome!
dont worry perez im not surprised you cant understand craig ferguson, i know loadsa people from glasgow and i doubt even other glaswegians can understand each other
LOOKING GOOOOD PREZZERS. I LIKE THE NEW YOU. NICE HAIR, TEETH, AND A SLIGHLTY SLIMMER BUILD. I WOULD ALMOST SAY THAT YOU ARE HOT! THE SUIT WAS DELISH, BY THE WAY. LOVED IT!!
Goddamn Perez you look stunning!!!!!!!!!! absolutely breathtaking, keep up the good work we love you here in canada!!!!!!
I agree with Hizzle! I was at the Capitol File party also and was very disappointed that Perez did not take the time to say hello to HIS fans! I got close and said "Hey!" and he looked at me with disgust! And, he WALKED IN with Heidi & Spencer — r they friends?!! Then, he man-hugged Pete Wentz. Perez — you are sleeping with the enemies and I am truly disappointed. Remember that you used to be just like us — just a guy with a job!
I am SO JELOUS!! Although I have to ask, why the hell was Heidi and Spencer there? Or Asslee and Pete? And Pamela Anderson??? Do they have anything to say or think about politics?
At any rate, it sound SO FUN. I have a degree in Political Science and would have loved to have been your guest Perez!
I wish Ashlee would've drop-kicked your a$$ for all the bashing you do of her and her music. She's too damn nice.
How much f'ing makeup did you put on???????? You aren't a blogger anymore - you are a celebrity wannabe
Salman Rushdie is a legend. Why did you not spend more time talking to him? More interesting than all those bland, boring, braindead celebrities
I stopped reading at the point where you called the president of our country a douche.
Even if that's your opinion, it's really unprofessional to say that, especially after being allowed to even attend the correspondents dinner.
Gosh Perez. This is why so many people hate your fat ass.
Please be respectful of my president. Really now, you are supporting a Clinton and ironically will expect the same in return if she wins. I would never boo at a president or call them names. I have really noticed that libs have the rudest behavior. They have nasty bumper stickers and they throw pies in peoples faces. Someone said to me recently that republicans dont have bumper stickers because they are ashamed. Really, I am afraid to even use a yard sign because I would expect some liberal to deface my property. The liberals have highjacked free speech. They use such ugly hateful low class means to make a point. But they never use any words, which just says to me that they have no idea what they are talking about. They just want to incite and hate. What an ugly group!
what a bunch of losers in those photos, we definitely need to be better represented. Prerez, your politcal comments are worthless. stick with what you know best, tacky white pen scribbles on celebrity photos, that give us a chuckle when we are bored.
comment to #66, I TOTALLY agree with you about the bad behavior of liberals. additionally they are hypocrites. this is from repeated observation and from having once had liberal views myself
It's funny how most of the world can see how fake Heidi and Spencer are, but you Perez. You're such a sellout. How you can socialize with these two morons is degrading, even for you.
And while we're at it; what the fuck was Heidi doing there anyway? She's not even a registered voter!
Ya know Perez, Speidi is laughing behind your back. They know that if they give you any attention at all, you'll lay off of them and lash at Lauren. As you do.
Why is perez lying? LC didn't run away she did stay awhile you know what perez you are a prick just like that heidi and you buttboy spencer.
Perez please stop referring to yourself in the plural. The pronoun is "I" not "we".
ummm somebody tell spencer to buy one less chanel bag or his bobble headed girlfriend and then he can pay to have his cheap tux fitted. he looks like a kid playing in his dad's closet…. a really evil buck-toothed kid that is….
How DARE you call the President of the United States that name?! Who the fuck do you think you are?! Whether you agree with our President or not - you are to ALWAYS respect HIM and HIS position. You ungrateful fuck. You are the epitomy of a trashy, America-hating liberal who hates all that he has been given. You had the oppty to be part of an amazing experience and you ruined it by a) being there and b) shamelessly trashing our President. Perez - you are a worthless person who thinks that if everyone doesn't think like you do, we are all wrong. Well, get this buddy - if you don't like living in America, move. Go to France where they will welcome you with open arms - and take Babs Streisand, Sean Penn and Alec Baldwin with you (in addition to many others). You don't know how good you have it here. You owe a HUGE apology to your readers and of course, President and Mrs. Bush for being such a douche yourself.
Fuck you! you fucking fag!
I saw Donatella in DC yesterday. She came up right next to me while I was shopping in Georgetown! And I agree with you. George W is a Douche!! Sounds the Dinner was so much fun! And you looked great Perez!
What's with wearing all of the makeup Perez??
I went to West Hollywod last week, went to Urth Cafe, worked out beside Janice Dickinson at Equinox. Who gives a flying fuck, all that is missing is another big earthquake to clean up all of California's filth! Stay in Cali. Perez, don't want to waste a good earthquake.
After all the BS that you hand the Simpsons I am very surprised they took a photo with you!!! lol
perez, you look amazing!! i heart you so much
A new low. A FAG blogger ("flogger") who draws dick pictures goes to a dinner with the President. Unbelievable.
My God! Perez……..you've lost weight, your hair color is perfect for your skin tone, you are tan, you look human. Keep up the good work!
Perez - the only douche here or there is YOU. If you hate our President so bad then why the hell did you go? You are a poor excuse for a human being and a waste of DNA just like most liberals. You have nothing productive to say when it comes to Politics. I still scratch my head as to how you all hate Bush but yet you all forget how many lives were taken during Vietnam and how long it took the dems to get us out of that!
I think it's disgusting that you would go any where and break bread with this disgusting administration. All of you there are sell outs and suck asses. You would probably go to a pedophile convention if you were getting press.
Perez, you look great with makeup, hair and airbrushing. It's a stark contrast to that awful video you posted from your DC hotel room a few hrs before. You almost look as done up as Heidi. Will you be going under the knife next? Anyway, keep up the good work.
i'm pretty sure the bloomberg party was a the costa rican embassy, not the colombian
You have totally lost me as a reader, even if you dont agree with the political views someone has, you could have the decency to show some respect. I dont see the president writing blogs about you? Even when he does well your still being disrespectful, consider this the last page i ever see on your site, you disgust me.
Perez, why were you there? I think that it was nice that you were invited and you looked really good but again I have to ask, why were you invited?
LC is still a fucking child…run out of the party when Speidi came….that's so immature i hate her!!!!
Perez is such a kiss ass bitch!
The President is not a douche. You need to respect him even if you do not always agree with his beliefs or stances.
Liberal morons.
Perezito,
Tu pareces tan flaco! Que lindo tu eres!
pereeezzzz you look amazing omggg canada does love you!!
Perez, listen to all these Americans, they hate you, come to Canada!!!! We love you, and even take criticism for our leaders, not just blindly bow to authority. They are all sheep who have been taught well. If you forgot, you do live in a democracy where people are entitled to their opinions. May i remind you, not all Americans voted for Bush and not all Americans support him. Also, look at the recent events, you're president is a DOUCHE. Lets also keep in mind that although perezhilton.com, isn't necessarily the most politically correct site, you are reading an entertainment site, half the people on here would skip that part if perez wrote anything serious about politics. Everyone needs to take this site with a grain of salt! Its entertainment! get over it.
Jonas Brothers still looking FINE! as hell.
Wow, you met one the greatest writers of our time?! Salman Rushdie rocks, congratulations
Besitos!
Re: KC from Canada –
Oh get lost your fucking ignorant wanna be American Canadian! Get the hell off of an American site that talks about American celebrities! Your country is only known because you are North of THe U.S. Damn moron!
the bloomberg after-party was at the COSTA RICA EMBASSY u fat lard!
Of course the only way Bush could be 'funny' would be because of his writers…he'll always be a huge douche, though, and he can take all the credit for that.
ps…u love drama! Crazy Queen!
um is it just me or is that guy in the Jonas Brother shot next to Perez look alot like Drake Bell…
How cool–?!?
