BIG APPLE BUZZ
Stepping out
Hochul celebrates Broadway,
Lady Di’s nieces at Fashion Week
BY FLO ANTHONY
The Broadway show, Six The Musical,
which is a pop music version
of the story of the wives of
King Henry VIII, had some very distinguished
audience members recently.
Making good use of her time in the Big
Apple to fi lm two episodes of Sesame
Street, First Lady Dr. Jill Biden and a
group of friends popped into the Brooks
Atkinson Theatre on Feb. 15 to see the
play.
As for her Sesame Street debut, Flotus
tweeted out, “Thank you for welcoming
me to the neighborhood, Elmo! Commander
and I are ready for a game of fetch
on the South Lawn anytime!”
A few nights later, on Feb. 18, Governor
Kathy Hochul hit up a performance
of Six, where she told the audience, “Welcome
to the Queendom of New York!
Hello everyone, I know that, none of you
paid money to hear a politician speak, unless
you thought you were at Hamilton by
mistake. So we’re good. Right? I am here
just to thank you. Thank you for becoming
part of New York’s greatest comeback
ever. By showing up and supporting
Broadway, and supporting Broadway, and
supporting the amazing cast of Six, the
fans, the whole crew, thank you for being
part of this.”………
Alec Baldwin was spotted heading out
for coffee in Manhattan on Feb. 19, as a
New Mexico district attorney revealed to
Vanity Fair it was possible the actor might
have fi red the bullet that killed Rust cinematographer
Halyna Hutchins without
pulling the trigger.
The breakthrough revelation by Santa
Fe DA Mary Carmack-Altweis comes
just after Hutchins’ family sued the beleaguered
actor, claiming he is in ‘complete
denial’ of his role in her death and
is ‘blaming others’ over the Oct. 21, 2021
shooting. According to Vanity Fair, Carmack
Altweis told the publication it was
possible the gun that killed Hutchins went
off without Baldwin pulling the trigger, as
he had previously claimed in a December
interview with ABC.
The DA said she asked an investigator
in the case to bring their own revolver and
conducted an offi cial test with two independent
inspectors who made sure the
gun was empty. She added they visually
showed her you can pull the hammer back
without actually locking it.
Said Carmack-Altweis, “So you can pull
it back without actually pulling the trigger
and without actually locking it, and then
if you let it go, the fi ring pin can hit the
primer of the bullet”……

late Princess Diana had impeccable style,
taste and class in clothing. It looks like her
nieces are following in Her Royal Highness’s
footsteps.

his twins, Lady Eliza and Lady Amelia
Spencer, made a “splash” while attending

sisters were in attendance at the Michael
Kors show, where they wore ensembles
from the label’s Spring/Summer 2022 collection……….
