Lunch at the Shangri-La
I had a delightful lunch at the Shangri-La Hotel in Santa Monica today with my old model buddy John Pearson. The Shangri-La just went through a 31 million dollar renovation and looks magnificent. The food was amazing. Salad Nicoise for me and a Lobster Cobb salad for John. We both used to stay there back in the 80’s and 90’s when it was the place to stay for many of the acting and modeling crowd. Besides being an amazing model who has consistently worked with the best over the 25 years, John is a true gentleman with a quick wit and huge heart. We talked about Love, death, women, children, soccer, metaphysics, photographers, agents and God knows what else. To say the least the lunch was memorable. Nothing like good food with a great friend, sitting pool side and just enjoying a free flowing conversation about Life. I met John 25 years ago on a shoot in the Hamptons and he has kept his positive, loving self intact. He just moved to LA with his wife and kids and I am glad that he will be near by! Peace and Love Bruce
