HBO party channels Thailand
Lily Tomlin looked around the lavish HBO party and said, "This looks like the king of Thailand's wedding reception." Precisely. HBO's Billy Butchkavitz-designed Thai-themed party filled a 10,000-square-foot tent with massive Southeast Asian statuary, purple and gold decor, 1,500 guests and enough costumed staff to remake "The King and I."
Though there were no Thai royalty on hand, an Emmy-winning former U.S. vice president received a fair amount of attention when he arrived. Al Gore was just a few tables away from comedian Louis Black, who said of Gore: "The reason he's winning Emmys is he's not good at winning the other things."
