The Donald Does Dubai

blog_trump_ladies.jpgDonald Trump clearly spent a wad for the opening party of his Trump International Hotel & Tower Dubai. But maybe some of the money he spent on the freaky stiltwalkers (see photo!) should have gone toward air conditioning. The 60-foot wide temporary dome he built for the party on 52nd Street was as hot as the Dubai desert.

Despite rumors that guests like Demi Moore and Heidi Klum had been paid handsomely for attending, The Donald claimed that he had known Heidi since before she was famous and that Demi is a close friend. (Wow, what are the odds of Trump being friends with Heidi as a teenage girl in Germany?) Never one to miss a sales pitch, he also quipped that he hoped to sell Demi an apartment soon.

blog_trump_stiltwalkers.jpgThe main event of the night was a strangely sexually-charged video of the Trump Dubai, which featured an attractive, ritzy couple engaged in a variety of luxury vacation activities—dinner on a yacht followed by hotel suite-seduction. It was very glossy, with the feel of a high-end perfume commercial.

blog_trump_klum_cookies.jpgSince the Palm Islands (the artificial islands in Dubai where the hotel is located) are the self-proclaimed 8th wonder of the world, the Trumps felt it was a perfect fit for their Middle Eastern venture. "Dubai loves big," Ivanka later told us.

Heidi was the most charming star at the event who, despite the heat, actually stayed longer than any member of the Trump family. Naomi Watts and Demi avoided the plebeians behind a barrage of publicists and security guards.

Goldigger socialistas were also showing off their plumage. Two particular ladies seemed eager to meet Eric Trump, Donald's youngest son with Ivana. They asked a suited gentleman if Eric liked meeting girls, "Oh yes, he loves girls." Notwithstanding a fit giggles--the suit pointed them in his direction and they took off.

By the time the Trump-stamped cookies were handed out, the crowd had dissipated significantly. In the goodie bags were books about the Trump Dubai and Mont Blanc pens.
