***White House Correspondents' Association President Jennifer Loven***

Jeeze, if you knew that you were going to be on the dias, and right next to + introducing the President, couldn't you get a better dress, earrings, and a decent hairdo?

She looks like a homeless person.

Mariska Hargitay and most of the other women were glowing and gorgeous. Everyone looked so excited and happy. Good times had by all.

I didn't quite understand why they had teenyboppers standing in the hallway cheering for people who came in. After all, isn't the White House Correspondents' Dinner known as NerdProm?

COME ON HP!!!! This is supposed to be a politicallly savvy website and your staff can't even identify a VERY recognizable Mayor Antonio Villaragosa???!!! He's mayor of one of the largest cities in the US! Or was that satire - pretty lame. That is embarrassing and demeaning. You need to fix that caption.

[eden4barack08]

"with a guest" they called him. Unbelievable!

[CALAVA]

Funny thing is Mayor Villaraigosa was the only one I recognized in that group! lol

[jazzofcourse08]

ha! so did I.

[Onfya]

The RUSH LIMBAUGH JOKE WAS THE BEST JOKE EVER!! WHOOOO THAT WAS FUNNY!

[studioh!]

Poor Mayor V - demoted to "and guest".
He's got to hire a new PR firm.

[MacManLB]

That's a shame. The mayor of one of the largest cities in America and no one knows his name.

[Defunct]

Strange Donatella let's herself be seen in public. Doesn't she know?

[ignorantwillyharper]

No, she doesn't, but if she has a friend , they should tell her.

[Defunct]
