After the premiere of the new film The King’s Speech this week, guests dined at Forty Four, the Royalton Hotel’s restaurant. An unfortunate Champagne spillage doused a guest’s dress, but Rachel Roy came to the rescue in the ladies’ bathroom: She dabbed the dress dry and suggested the now just-a-little-bit-damp lady play off the slightly alcoholic odor as a designer perfume (the YSL scent, Champagne, to be specific). Meanwhile, at another post-premiere party for The Next Three Days, a fan of Rainn Wilson’s Office alter ego Dwight Shrute showed him the stack of pancakes a Virginia diner had produced in his honor — the Shrute Stack. Rainn loved the photo, but asked the fan to send the image to his assistant’s e-mail, refusing to give out his own address because he “didn’t trust” her. We think he was joking. The rest of this week’s celeb spotting straight ahead.
