David Foster and Katherine McPhee at Hot Pink Party 2019
This year’s gala commemorated the incredible impact Bcrf investigators have made on research since the organization’s founding in 1993. Bcrf has been deeply involved in every major breakthrough in breast cancer prevention, diagnosis, treatment and survivorship; since the establishment of Bcrf 25 years ago, breast cancer mortalities in the U.S. have declined by nearly 40 percent. As the top breast cancer charity in the U.S., Bcrf raises more money for metastatic research – and breast cancer research in general–than any other private funder in the world.

And, as part of the festivities, the establishment’s long-time general managers, Julian Niccolini and Alex von Bidder, are reportedly going to be “roasted,” Friars Club–style, by a number of their regular patrons at a May 5 fundraiser for the New York charity Citymeals-on-Wheels. As a huge fan—and onetime chronicler—of the Friars roasts, I certainly hope that means ticket holders will have the privilege of seeing scheduled guest Martha Stewart do some dick jokes; Loews Chairman and C.E.O.

Some of the nation's leading business barons will accept demotions for a new TLC reality series. The cable channel will grease the rungs of the corporate ladder with Now Who's Boss? -- a hourlong primetime series that transplants CEOs into entry-level jobs at the companies they run. TLC bought the format rights to a BBC series Back to the Floor to create Boss, which is produced by New York Times Television. In the premiere, Loews Hotels chairman and CEO Jonathan Tisch finds himself working as a housekeeper and bellhop at one of his own hotels. The experience was such an eye-opener for Tisch that it motivated him to mandate that his own executives spend one day each year doing the same. "The conceit of the series is to show an honest experience from both the executive and employee sides," said Michael Klein, who will executive produce Boss with NYTT's Matthew Gould. Other executives scheduled to trade their white collars in for blue ones include Skip Sherman, senior vp entertainment at Universal Orlando; Dan Brestle, group president of Stila Cosmetics at Estee Lauder Cos.; John Selvaggio, president of Delta Airlines' Song Air Service; Larry Flax and Rick Rosenfield, co-founders of California Pizza Kitchen; and John Vanderslice, president and CEO at Club Med Americas. Boss will begin its six-episode run in March in a time slot to be determined.
