The NYC premiere of The Tudors was a very regal and firstclass fete. Co-hosted by Joanna Coles, the Editor-in-Chief of Marie Claire, the night was filled with cocktails, networking, namedropping and beautiful people.
Industry insiders and sophisticated celebrities packed into the Hearst building! Noteworthy attendees included:
Jonathan Rhys Meyers (so hot)

Joanna Coles (how AWESOME is her coat?!?)

Christine Baranski (you know her from virtually every sitcom)

And a slew of Showtime executives, producers and heavy hitters!
Following the soiree was a screening of the first episode of The Tudors… and, let me just say, I’m officially hooked. This is NOT the Henry VIII we know from history class. He is young, witty, sexy, charming and – yes – a little bit frightening.
I enjoyed the screening all the more because I had the lucky seat directly behind Jonathan Rhys Meyers… so I was able to observe, scrutinize and relish in his every twitch and giggle. Here’s some inside scoop…
Mr. Meyers sat between his publicist and his sweetheart, Reena Hammer… The two were not afraid to engage in some PDAs throughout the screening. At one point, Jonathan leaned over and kissed his young lady on the lips. (I kicked the chair in front of me – Jonathan’s seat- in envy…)
How about this little tidbit? Jonathan was squirming in his seat throughout the steamy sex scenes! (And there were quite a few of them!) I’m guessing he felt slightly awkward reliving these racy moments while next to Reena! I love it when celebrities show some insecurity… It proves they’re human after all!
