We're Getting Nowhere: The "Women's Night and A Wedding" Episode

As the countdown continues for the premiere of Season 1 of The L Word on Logo, we're coming up with new and different excuses to vlog. This week, we want to share with you the joy that was the L.A. Gay and Lesbian Center's Women's Night. (And the joy that was Dara's friend's wedding, because that's where Dara was when Jill and I went to Women's Night.)

By now, Sharon Stone's auctioneering skills are the stuff of legend, but that doesn't stop us from giving you our version of how she took command of audience and scolded a bunch of lesbians into dropping some extra cash for a good cause.

We also talk about the dreamy yet unconventional wedding Dara attended (the ring bearers were unicorns!) and share some of our home videos from Women's Night. Thanks to Robyn Dettman for shooting the footage of us — which includes Bridget McManus and Cathy DeBuono — even when some of us were hopping up and down on one leg on the red carpet. (Jealous?!)

    As usual I'm very much looking forward to watching what I'm sure will be another wonderful vlog with the terrible three of WGN!

    Thank you in advance for giving us an insiders peek into the Women's Night event.

    Passion, it lies in all of us, sleeping... waiting... and though unwanted... unbidden... it will stir... open its jaws and howl. It speaks to us... guides us... passion rules us all, and we obey.

    Meet & greet.

    Or not...
    I am determined to be able to come to at least one! Just so I can turn into a mono-syllabic, drooling idiot when presented with Jill Bennett.

    Anyhoo, the vlog was amazing, as usual.
    I loved Jill's faces =] and her little run... her arse mesmerised me for a little while there.
    Jill should wear dressed on the vlogs. Definately =D

    Resisting disco title.

    Even just story telling you all are quite entertaining.

    Jill: Love the hair.

    Karman & Jill: I'm glad to here y'all showed Sharon her proper respect.

    Dara: Glad you hear you time among the Hets didn't suck, too bad.

    Ironic that you're vlogging about straight marriage

    when the California Supreme Court will issue its ruling tomorrow in the gay marriage case argued before the court in March.
    crayolarabbit's picture

    Jill, your new hair gives me

    Jill, your new hair gives me a bit of the wilies and I cannot figure out why. Is it for a role, or for funsies?
    BrokenWings84's picture

    Love your hair...

    ...Jill. Wish I could be there, but Sweden to NY is a bit to travel :( Hope you all have a great time!

     

    I can't even think straight...

    ellenrules's picture

    Oooo yay I checked too

    Oooo yay I checked too early for this today and when it wasn't up I guessed there wasn't gonna be out this week - happy now :)

    OK not to sound like every other lesbian who watches WGN but I love the new hair, it looks gorgeous...and loved the red carpet footage too he he.

    I am gutted that I don't live in NY well actually even in the US for that matter but I'd probably be a total ididot if I did meet everyone, stunned my your awesomeness! -->See what I mean I just realised I spelt ididot lol

    Welcome back guys

    Thanks for the fun update and for filming Jill running around the red carpet! =)) Everyone looked fabulous on Women's Night. And Dara was suddenly speaking more softly than usual.

    I hope the NYC meeting goes well :D

    Thanks for sharing

    ....the fun from the red carpet.  All the AE vloggers looked amazing!

    Loved the cameo appearance from Luna.

    cowgirlumhum's picture

    Just so you know...

     

    the restaurant is "The Cowgirl" formerly known as "The Cowgirl Hall of Fame Restaurant" but was forced to change the name due to legal action taken by the actual Cowgirl Hall of Fame in Fort Worth, Texas....

    lol just to clarify so no one gets confused! :)

    PLEASE pay homage to all the great cowgirls that are there. Especially Patsy Montana, one of the first solo musicians and one of the first women to sell one million records... she is also a family member of mine.

    TeranisStorm's picture

    yay...

    it's always fun to see all the vloggers together for an event, they should do crossover vlogs all the time. these three, jen and dee, bridget mcmanus, sara and lori, cathy edbuono, kate and julie, liz feldman...hilarity is bound to ensue.

     ;-D

    lightcascades's picture

    Btw, love Jill's new hair-do, very nice :D

    Batman's picture

    just cause...

    well, got my WGN fix.  It's stupid, but these girls can do anything and I would laugh.

     I'm really glad to have a group of woman who I have some stuff in common with and I can look to as role models.

    wow...I was serious for a whole second.

    Thanks again, for the VLOG Ladies :-)

    Jill looks gorgeous with this new hair cut. with straight hair she would totally look like Jenny from the L word... oh my god, a new fake Adele LOL

    Karman is glowing!!! Karman

    Karman is glowing these days!!! Karman seems so full of life and happy!

     

    truetor's picture

    i was there too!!

    i believe the woman who preformed with Linda Perry was named Sienna, her voice was amazing. Linda Perry's speech was inspiring as was seeing Sharon Stone raise so much money. i could not believe what i was seeing.

    thanks for the red carpet footage. you all looked phenomenal but i gotta say Karman, you looked like a rock star too. Jill, i'm amazed you can run in heels. by the way, have your feet recovered yet?

    have fun in NY.

    Red carpet hijinx

     

    Thanks for sharing the red carpet!  We are so lucky to be able to vicariously attend these events through you ladies!  Great footage!!

    Sharon Stone is awesome, and a shout out to her for all her wonderful charitable activities.  My fave Sharon Stone look is from the Quick and the Dead....oh my!

    A chance my plans may change and allow me to 'Cowgirl Up' for the meet and greet, so eeeee hawwwwwwww!

    Luna is just soooooooo adorable.  She looks like my  "baby girl' (said in my best Kit voice) 

     

    Ladyhawk1709's picture

    Excellent!

    So happy that there's a new one up! And it was so funny as usual. :) And that poster up there who said something about Karman glowing? I second (oh wait, that's already been a second, I third?)that. Whatever (or should I say whoever? hum hum...) you're doing, Karman, it's working for you. (insert winking smiley here). The red carpet photage was just brilliant!

    SALSA IN NEW YORK CITY????

    Get a rope...seriously though, glad to know someone up north can make a decent salsa.  I survived six months in Boston where the closest thing to Mexican food was a place in Harvard Square that served enchilladas with red beans and rice...WTF?  They did have Lone Star Beer so this Texas girl was momentarily happy.  You say they do a good margarita too...I might have to venture to New York City in the near future.

    Dara, sorry you were put through the wedding shower.  Most of the recent Baby and Wedding showers I've suffered through have included wine/beer/liquor for those of us who feel the need to imbibe.  Made it much more appealing to the non breeder crowd.

    You ladies have fun in New York City!

    Robin91's picture

    Wow, you guys are all

    Wow, you guys are all looking great! Jill, love the hair and Karman, your red carpet-outfit was awesome. You looked really, really good. Jackie Jones' clothes?

     

    Also, I burst out in hysterical laughter when Luna was standing behind Dara on the couch and the look Dara gave that poor cat. Like "What the HELL are you doing, sniffing my ear?" Hilarious.
