SOCIETY / A VERY TIGHT DENIAL
MISS VELVET DENIES WHISKER LIFT AFTER MET BALL: ‘IT WAS JUST THE LIGHTING’
Her face has not changed. The chandelier has retained counsel.
Miss Velvet arrived at the Met Ball looking refreshed. Very refreshed. Her whiskers were practically behind her ears.
“It wuz just the lighting,” she sez. Her publicist blamed hydration, good sleep and finally being happy. Nobody explained why being happy had moved her eyebrows.
Pearl congratulated her on the recovery before correcting herself to “the lovely evening.” We asked for the name of the lighting designer. Velvet sent us a lawyer.
Her face declined further movement.
