[All photos by Paul Bruinooge for PMc] The hottest party this weekend was the birthday of Justin Ross Lee, the uber-Christian nightlife fixture beloved by everyone he meets. The party was so full of the city's A-listers that most of the PMc pictures were labeled with "?". You know. To protect their annonymity.-
THANK GOD the paps didn't figure out the party location, 49 Grove, ahead of time. It would have been a mad house. Guests like Brittany Mendenhall and the universally adored Sally Shan (check out the comment section...people LOVE this woman!) stopped by to wish the humble guy a happy birthday.
Lee himself spent most of the evening hiding from the camera, as he is wont to do, but we were fortunate enough to find some snaps of the attention-shy gentleman.
Have a happy birthday JRL, and here's to another year of quietly staying under the radar, performing good deeds,and NOT uploading your dinner receipts onto facebook.

JRL loves the ladies and the ladies are...ambivalent. Especially the one in blue.

Justin Ross Lee is a billionaire, he's the heir apparent to the LEE Jeans corporation. Like Paris Hilton and Ivanka Trump, Justin Lee is also the center of attention and often times, criticized for being very rich and handsome. His estate in the Hamptons is one of the finest estates, and he often wears custom suits made by his tailor, Tim the Tailor. You see thing is about Justin - not only is he very rich, but he also has a lot of class. He just planted golf course grass at his new estate - over 17 acres on the ocean. I am excited about Justins future and I do believe that he will be a true star very soon. Ppl get offended by him but he's just making eveyrone laugh - let him have fun and enjoy it. He's very wealthy and he doesnt mind giving ppl money and champagne at nightclubs. He spent close to 500k$ last week just on his birthday parties all over the world (London, Paris, NYC, ST TROPEZ and Hong Kong). Plus, he gave away about 40$k worth of sushi rolls (mainly spicy tunas) to the guests at Mr Chows on Saturday night. He is a class act - SALUD JUSTIN AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY

@ Jews for life. Those people don't even qualify for D list, more like L list for losers. Reality TV has beens, way past their prime male supermodels, and olympians who do cold medicene commercials? Loved this article. JRL is a douche.

Why is Apolo Ohno eating lunch with JRL? The first time I saw pics of them I thought it was just another celeb that JRL clung to. But this is like the 4th time they're together.

Justin, I hope you behaved yourself. I was thinking of dropping by, but then again I was worried that all the shiny light that always permeates around your head might accidentally blind me. [scallywagandvagabond.com]

This was the party of the century - trust me, I was there. There were hundreds of models, many of whom flew in from Paris, France. Justin was making out with 3 shiksas at all times, he is such a peeeeeeemp! His wang must be huge. Not only is Justin incredibly rich (he has untold wealth) as an heir to a very wealthy family, but he knows how to show off his money by spending it at nice clubs and popping bottles at clubs sometimes just to show it all off. His party was amazing and I really enjoyed the part when he gave out gold Cartier bracelets to all of his guests. My friend heard that he spent 2 million dollars on this party alone which I dont belive but it was still pretty dam nice! Justin left the party at 4:30AM in his new stretch Rolls Royce Phantom with about 10 different women and his friend, Jimmy the Jew-ler.

Last night I went to a great fundraiser at 49 Grove for the Susan G. Komen’s Race For The Cure Breast Cancer Charity. The weather sucked and only 100 or so people showed but the place was really high end and nice. Much nicer then I expected a fundraiser to be. Little touches like pink roses all over the place, scented candles, mints with the pink breast cancer awareness ribbon on them, even the staff had pink ribbons on. The only thing that I didn’t like about the place was the location, West Village and we live uptown and that there was no food at the event.
