Andy Warhol Day

Rode out to the Ace Gallery in Venice to do a press conference.  Called the office in New York in the morning and Ronnie told me it was Andy Warhol Day on The Gong Show.  Back at the hotel I had lots of messages.  Dinner at Marcia Weisman’s.  Ryan O’Neal was there and Sue Mengers.  Ryan was leaning against the Morris Louis and put a big dent in it.  He was sour.  I had all the Guinness kids with me - Catherine, Erskine, and Miranda - and it turned out Miranda’s twin sister Sabrina had been Tatum’s nanny and Ryan’s secretary when Ryan was filming Barry Lyndon in England, and Ryan hated her, so he was taking it out on Miranda, and she went to the bathroom to cry.  Sabrina is actually a groupie, even though she’s a Guinness.

Sue looked terrible and so did Ryan.  They left early because, I think, they thought “nobody” was there.  Hollywood people are rotten.  They all play these games with their A, B, and C groups and it’s just too stupid.  That’s why when they come down, they really come down.  One thing about Bianca, she really has class because she’ll go anywhere.
