Party Affiliation
Former Mayor Eric Adams was spotted partying into the wee hours in the Hamptons this weekend.
A source tells us they saw the nightlife-loving pol at a 70th birthday bash for his former deputy mayor, power lawyer Randy Mastro. We’re told Adams gave a toast at Mastro’s home, where the birthday boy—who is currently going to war with Mayor Zohran Mamdani over his pied-à-terre tax—serenaded guests with a rendition of Frank Sinatra’s “My Way.”
Among those in attendance were supermarket mogul John Catsimatidis, former New York Gov. David Paterson, defense attorney Arthur Aidala and Medallion Financial President Andrew Murstein.
Adams wasn’t ready to call it a night though. He was later spotted out with 75 Main owner Zach Erdem at nightclub Common Ground where, according to a spy, “Adams kept the party going until 2 a.m.”
Naturist Habitat
Christie Brinkley and her daughters, Sailor Brinkley Cook and Alexa Ray Joel, got an eyeful at Project Zero’s fourth annual Celebration for Coral at Maison Close Southampton.
We’re told that halfway through the event, guests were treated to a cheeky burlesque show, prompting Brinkley to joke that the benefit should have been called “Strip for Coral Restoration.” Oh la la!
Also in attendance were Alexandra Richards, WWD Editorial Director Michael Atmore, publicist Kelly Brady, Georgia Cohen and Sophie Curtis.
Words to Liv By
Olivia Munn says confidence looks different to her now. “It’s less about proving something and more about knowing who I am,” she tells Page Six.
As the new face and ambassador for Anne Klein’s Fall/Winter 2026 campaign, Munn says she’s embracing a chapter defined by evolution, gratitude and letting go of the versions of herself that no longer fit. Motherhood and her breast cancer journey have also reshaped her definition of strength.
Munn was diagnosed with bilateral breast cancer in April 2023, and she underwent a double mastectomy as part of four surgeries in 10 months. “Strength can be asking for help, setting a boundary, changing your mind, resting, or admitting that something is hard,” she says. “There is strength in vulnerability.”
The 46-year-old actress, who is married to comedian John Mulaney and is a mother of two, has also become an outspoken advocate for women’s health, urging women not to assume they’re fine simply because they feel healthy.
“Ask the extra question. Get the second opinion if you need one. If something doesn’t feel right, keep asking,” she says.
Munn, known for roles in “The Newsroom,” “X-Men: Apocalypse” and “Magic Mike,” is also celebrating an Emmy nomination for “Friends and Neighbors.” “This industry can be unpredictable, and you never take it for granted when something you care about resonates,” she says.

Politics at Play
Pulitzer Prize-winner Wendy Wasserstein’s 1997 play “An American Daughter” about a woman trying to clear a nomination for a U.S. Cabinet post has themes that are still relevant today, says star Montego Glover.
“This show is a robust conversation about feminism, media, politics, public service, celebrity, and the things that come with it. What you gain and what you lose when you become part of those machines,” she told us at a recent party for the show, playing now at The Pershing Square Signature Center.
When it comes to women in politics and the spotlight, the Tony nominee tells us we’re stuck in a time warp.
“Interestingly enough, the treatment essentially hasn’t changed,” she says. “Which is why this play, written 30 years ago, produced for the first time 30 years ago, is achingly relevant. . . sitting in the seat of 2026, you can literally see illustration after illustration after illustration of this story laid out in the decades [between when it was written and now.]”
Wasserstein, who won a Tony for her 1989 play “The Heidi Chronicles” died in 2006 at age 55 of lymphoma.
Lavish Weekend
Well-heeled Hamptonites got a playful ribbing (or maybe rubbing?) at a screening of “Spa Weekend,” a new comedy about four lifelong friends on a luxurious wellness trip that goes awry.
The flick stars Leslie Mann, Isla Fisher, Anna Faris and Michelle Buteau, who welcomed the crowd with a gentle roast.
“Thank you all so much for taking a break from your Mah Jongg and frosé and your in-ground pools to come out tonight,” the comic said. “I see so many white sweaters with no stains! And everyone in this theater smells like good health insurance.”
Judd Apatow, Larry David, Katie Couric, Lorraine Bracco, Ralph Macchio, Christie Brinkley, Tamron Hall, and Donna Karan come out to the event hosted by Black Bear and The Cinema Society at Moby’s in East Hampton.
Cooking Up a Scene
James Beard winning chef Kwame Onwuachi will celebrate his new cookbook, “All House: Crazy Good Food for Whatever,” with an event at Lincoln Center on September 22 that promises to blend conversation, cooking, and performance, we’re told.
Onwuachi will also host events to fete the book at his popular spots like the nearby critically acclaimed Tatiana, Dōgon in Washington D.C. and Sahara in Las Vegas. The book follows his 2019 memoir “Notes from a Young Black Chef.”

Into the Glossy
Something new is circulating downtown. Sceney downtown members club People’s is launching its own magazine, Page Six hears. The rarified Greenwich Village founded by Margot Hauer-King and Emmet McDermott bills it as a seasonal journal devoted to “art, culture, hospitality, and the particular pleasures of downtown New York.” The Quarterly is edited by Tim Latterner, of the Bowery Review, alongside Hauer-King and McDermott. The debut reportedly features conversations with figures including Air Mail’s Graydon Carter and power publicist Harrison Vail (Peoples’ Sexiest Man Alive, perhaps?). There’s plans for The Quarterly to go beyond its initial Instagram-only drop, with ambitions to eventually stock it at New York print institutions including Casa Magazines and McNally Jackson. The salon itself occupies the former home of the Downtown Gallery, the influential 1920s-era outpost that helped champion American Modernism and artists including Georgia O’Keeffe, Max Weber and Stuart Davis. For now, however, getting your hands on People’s Quarterly is as exclusive as getting through the door: you need to be following People’s private Instagram to snag a copy.
Dolan’s Tip-In
Just in the Knick of time.
As the New York governor’s race heats up, with Republican Bruce Blakeman closing the gap on Gov. Kathy Hochul, Knicks owner James Dolan is bringing some Garden star power to the political court.
Dolan, whose Strong and Safe New York PAC is backing Blakeman, is hosting a Sept. 4 Hamptons event where guests will hear about the race — and get a chance to snap photos with the Knicks’ freshly minted championship trophy. The gathering comes as a new Siena poll shows Hochul leading Blakeman 49%-39%, down from a 20-point lead in June.
Meanwhile, Dolan’s PAC has already put more than $1 million behind a digital ad campaign targeting Hochul, titled “Get Outta Town,” which is set to run across digital and streaming platforms for several weeks, making the Hamptons bash just the latest play in the playbook. As the governor’s race enters the fourth quarter, Dolan is taking his winning streak from the Garden to the campaign trail — trophy in hand.
Making ‘Land’fall
John Mayer is taking over the East End.
The “Gravity” singer is performing a SiriusXM concert at the iconic Stephen Talkhouse in Amagansett next Wednesday. And while not everyone will be able to score one of the coveted tickets, fans will be able to take part in Mayer mania all week with signature drinks and menu specials at a number of favorite spots. Clam Bar will serve up Mayer’s Catch of the Day while Doubles will offer up the “Your Body Is a Blenderland” smoothie.
Proceeds go to Mayer’s Heart & Armour Foundation.
