OUR SHORT FILM

| AN EVENING AT THE FABLED CHATEAU MARMONT |

ADRIA ARJONA

READY FOR TAKE OFF

“They had faces then,” the famous phrase from “Sunset Boulevard” goes. But they’ve got way bigger faces now, as film and tv stars aren’t simply more ubiquitous in more films and tv shows/movies – more product – than ever before. But their mega sized social media presence – and an advertising one – means their faces are more in our faces than ever. Air-brushed or not. MaxMara hosted their annual “Face of the Future” party at the Chateau on Wednesday night – this is its 20th annual – highlighting “Hit Man” co-star Adria Arnjona. In a sleek sexy Max Mara halter gown, Arjona came with even hotter touch: boyfriend Jason Momoa, who rarely left her side – or front – or back – all night. Celeb friends and MaxMara guests included Jessica Alba, Brittany Snow, Zooey Deutsch, Leighton Meester, Shay Mitchell, Paris, Kathy and Nickly HIlton and others. Actress Maria Bakaloka came with sister stylist Jessica Paster. Arjana’s face will be even more present soon: she stars in “The Thomas Crowne” affair remake, starring Michael B. Jordon, coming out in March 2027. FYI, the Chateau didn’t look like chopped liver, either.
