Since last time, we posted our conversation with Brad Pitt and the Coen brothers, saw Marilyn Manson fall down a wall at the Park Hyatt, attended a private listening party with Patti Smith at the Gardiner museum, hung with Benicio Del Toro at 99 Sudbury and tried out the sex swing at the CONTROL ALT DELETE party at Queen West red-district WICKED.

POLISH PRIDE

Although you may think that resting up this weekend is dire, (well it is) but unfortunately we have no choice because Loho and Sam will be on the decks at ULTRA – seeing as though Toronto has now officially become a hot bed for all things celebrity. Will they pose as much as Paris Hilton last Monday? Doubtful, but we are banking on some seriously steamy make out sessions.

FRIDAY

Lindsay Lohan hosts Samantha Ronson at ULTRA
Paparazzi will be absolutely nuts and young girls from T-hill may just cut off a pinky finger to be granted access.

Is it possible that we can hang with Paris Hilton and Lindsay in one week? We’re going to try our best

Whether you are a freak or a geek, get your scrawny hipster ass over to Augusta House for some radical nostalgia back to a time of pencil cases and sniffing white out.

CONTEST – WILD DOGS AND FREE BEER!

We are giving away a pair of tix to see WILD DOGS at the Berkeley Theatre on October 17th.

This two-part event includes:

* BORN IN THE 80’s – some pre-play fun that includes free pizza and free beer at The Distillery, and an opportunity to mingle with cast and director of play.

* Performance of WILD DOGS – each evening at dusk, six people gather at the edge of the woods calling their dogs back – dogs that have turned wild. Drawn together by need, this unlikely group forms a community – until violence strikes unexpectedly. WILD DOGS is an unforgettable story about the wild in all of us.

To enter please email contests@shedoesthecity.com with “BORN TO BE WILD” in subject line of email. Winner will be notified by Monday September 22.
