Likewise, the Millenni-Om party in Bali, planned by New York event organizer Mark Baker, was conceived as a gathering for the young and hip, and organizers secured confirmations from such celebrities as Sean Penn, the band Oasis, Johnny Depp and Kate Moss. But faced with slow sales of the 700 tickets (at $500 apiece), organizers shifted gears. "We're now promoting the event as a trip for those wanting a New Year's with a spiritual and family orientation," says coordinator Karina Suwandi. Houston socialite Lynn Wyatt canceled a trip to the Pyramids, planned four years ago, in favor...
With his ice-white wig and his freon-filled veins, Warhol and his deadpan cool spoke volumes about the new, acquisitive culture suddenly exploding in the '60s, buoyed by the youthful confidence of the Kennedys' Camelot.

Now designers like Darryl Smith have brought the look to their clothes...
...there is little in the lyrics department worthy of the rewind button, although dwell on the bounce beat in the background and everything will be all right. A notable exception is "Drop It Like It's Hot," which you've heard if you've made it to any decent hip-hop clubs. It's obvious that even Lil Wayne knew he was better off as part of the flaming ones. Of the album's 17 tracks, 12 feature pairings with the rest of the Hot Boyz--Juvenile, B.G. and Turk. The four should have just gotten together for another group...
