EXCLUSIVE: She might be still fundamentally keeping away from the press, but it seems that Hillary Clinton can’t stay away from that Hollywood cash. The Democratic presidential nominee will be back in Los Angeles next week for two more Tinseltown fundraisers hosted by Seth MacFarlane and Barry Diller & Diane von Furstenberg, I’ve learned. This comes as Clinton’s running mate, Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine, also returns to town to the following week for a shindig with Eva Longoria and another event hosted by UTA Managing Director Jay Sures.
Most recently in town on August 22 and 23 for a series of visits to the Hollywood ATM plus a pickle jar-opening pit stop on Jimmy Kimmel Live, the former Secretary of State will be back on September 13, I’ve learned. Double dipping as usual, Clinton’s first event will be a $5,000-to-$50,000-a-pop fundraiser at the Family Guy creator and one-time Bernie Sanders supporter’s Beverly Hills home. To sweeten the deal, Lionel Richie will be performing. Then, after that lunch, it’s off the IAC Chairman and von Furstenberg’s home for a $100,000-a-couple dinner. Ex-Disney boss Michael Eisner and wife Jane are among the co-chairs for that “Conversation and Dinner With Hillary Clinton.”
Proving again that Hollywood is the Dems’ main contributor, those Clinton events last month at the L.A homes of Justin Timberlake & Jessica Biel and Haim Saban and his wife Cheryl provided a nice piece of the record-breaking $143 million fundraising pie that that the ex-NY senator’s campaign hauled in for August. Not that the top of the ticket is doing all the Tinseltown check cashing this month.
Vice Presidential nominee Kaine also is headed back in town on September 19-20 for events at the ex-Telenovela star and longtime Democratic supporter’s home and with his old pal Sures. Tickets for the Longoria-hosted Latinos for Hillary Dinner fundraiser with Kaine on September 19 are going for $10,000-$100,000. The lunch the next day at UTA by the agency’s managing director will see those hoping to get close to the would-be Veep paying out $2,700-$27,000 to be a co-host.
A pal of current VP Joe Biden, Sures hosted an A-list dinner for Kaine back in July before the senator was officially announced as Clinton’s running mate. Giving Kaine the Hollywood seal of approval, Turner Entertainment CCO Kevin Reilly, Fox’s Dana Walden, big Clinton backer and UTA client Chuck Lorre and former Paramount boss Sherry Lansing were in attendance. Kaine also met with Disney’s Bob Iger, Warner Bros’ Kevin Tsujihara and ICM Partners’ Chris Silbermann when he was in town in mid-July.
What other brass might be on his itinerary this upcoming trip?
Can not wait until this POS election is over, so all the drudgeroaches scuttle away from Deadline.
Because we’ll be celebrating President Trump’s inauguration.
Up until the past few days I really did not think Trump could win. The next 60 days are going to seem like an eternity for Hillary with the debates most probably making or breaking her chances. Based on this hypothesis…Trump will win.
Don’t worry, Bill made over 17 million as the honorary chancellor for a global for profit university grossing over four billion a year with heavy involvement with Clinton Foundation. Trump University has a 39,000 person class action suit going, but the Clinton’s just took this off the table as the university they support is having similar problems and investigations have started globally.
Quote of the day. “This election is a race to the bottom and second place…wins”, Charles Krauthammer. Spot on, Charles.
Traffic reports will tell us all where they live.
Thanks for the update.
Oh and isn’t destroying evidence and destroying government property/work product a felony.
Here’s to hoping the employees don’t practice that ethic.
Obstruction of justice. The action
to obstruct with the intent to evade.
Endorsing criminal obstruction.
With knowledge. Knowing and endorsing the action to impede, evade, obstruct,
by destroying evidence of government documents/
work product/documents.
Enjoy your little parties folks.
You should ask George W. Bush and Colin Powell that question. Isn’t paying off state Attorney Generals to avoid prosecution of your phony university a felony?

How much money do you need to run for president???! Jesus! She’s spent more money so far than some countries in our world have total lol… Forget the whole donations-for-benefits aspect of campaign contributions. Because doesn’t anybody else just think that there’s something unethical in itself about spending billions to campaign for a job when so many people in the world literally are starving to death? Beyond ridiculous & wasteful… We really need to end all of this and just have gov. funded elections where candidates get a few thousand each and some equally allotted TV time–and nothing more! The UK election system is a good example :)
I think it’s important to remember the names of these Hillary supporters. She has fought education reform in order to preserve the very cosy relationship the Democratic party holds with the Teachers Union (not teachers per se). Every single one of these celebrities and honchos decry poverty, incarceration, and racism, and yet, the number one factor contributing to these social ills is the dismal education system that forces the poor and/or minorities into failing schools. So the next time you see Seth Macfarlane proselytizing on “Real Time with Bill Maher”, remember that he has spent a fortune supporting a candidate who refuses to provide the poor/and minorities with a education that could lift them out of despair and poverty.
