High fashion and unfashionably late stars at ‘Miss You Already’ screening

I was told, “Drew Barrymore and Toni Collette, stars of ‘Miss You Already,’ plus VIPs Ed Norton, Cuba Gooding, Nicole Miller, Kick Kennedy, arrive 6 p.m.” Host Andrew Saffir didn’t. Nobody showed until 7ish. I sat alone in empty MoMA.

Earliest arrival, Lee Radziwill. Skinnier than my house key and seeming frail. Next, June Ambrose, Jay Z’s stylist. Someone whispered, “She’s wearing a Balmain that hasn’t come out yet.” And shouldn’t. Too short, too tight, too gold-embroidered. Also, she kept pulling up her crotch-high boots.

Down-to-earth Drew Barrymore actually kneeled down to chat. “I’m wearing Stella McCartney.” Stunning Drew’s dark appliquéd gown was a knockout. Also knocked out was the front, which showed everything but her scrapbook. Laughing, she tugged it closed. Said Toni Collette: “She’s shy. Not a tit kind of girl.”

Drew: “Who knows if this gown’s mine for keeps or not? I didn’t ask. Stella’s my dear friend. I love her. Friends play a big part in my life. This film’s about valuing friendship. Two women. I have two daughters. In the end, friends are all you have. Women put one foot in front of another. They’re heroes in life.”

The gorgeous gown was form-fitting. She manage to eat anything? “Please. I had lunch at Pastrami Queen. Big deli sandwich.”

Collette: “I play a charismatic, complicated woman who relies on those around her when becoming ill. We had lots of input so as not to mess up. I even checked with a family member who had a similar condition, and it’s a bitch.

“In the movie, I have a double mastectomy scene. It wasn’t as bad as you’d imagine because I actually have nothing up there to show in the first place.”

Jacqueline Bisset: “I play a small part. A flaky actress dingbat who annoys her daughter, with whom she hasn’t a good relationship. But what’s consuming me now is politics. I can’t stand what’s happening. Everything’s so difficult. I follow, but I get upset. I speak to about 15 people a day. All about politics. I like Obama. He’s so distinguished. And I respect everything Obama does.”

You a Democratic voter?

“I live in California, but I can’t vote. I’m British.”

Not that I’m one to brag…

Pardon — but back while every newscaster, reporter, pollster burbled about will-Biden-won’t-Biden, and before he weaseled out, I told you — flat-out! — he’s going no place. Not like I didn’t think so. I knew. Too old, too chicken, too often he tried and lost, too standoffish in terms of romancing fund-raisers and contributions. He just wanted limelight. I told you!
