Grammy Nominated DJ Khaled Rocks McDonald’s Big Mac ‘Year in Music’ Party

Coachella Highlights: Bootsy Bellows Pool Party, The Music Lounge & More

by Maya Cooper April 23, 2016
written by Maya Cooper

Every year Coachella brings out the hottest names in Hollywood and this year is no different. It’s not easy juggling full days on the festival grounds and the countless mansion parties that take place all day and night, but there are some happenings that simply can’t be missed.

The McDonald’s All Day Breakfast party at the Bootsy Bellows Estate is that party. Imagine a massive Palm Springs residence transformed into a giant McDonald’s. With fresh, hot fries, a variety of smoothie flavors and breakfast items served up on platters at every turn, we were constantly reminded that Mickey D’s now serves breakfast all damn day. Other highlights were the huge ball pit, which seemed to be a Kellen Lutz favorite, a karaoke booth, a pair of gigantic golden arches and exciting DJ sets and performances by Mia Moretti, Devin Lucien, Moxie Raia, Jimi Tents, Post Malone and Belly.

Celeb attendees included Kendall and Kylie Jenner, Karrueche Tran, Aaron Paul, The Weeknd, Bella Hadid, Cody Simpson, Michael B Jordan, Brody Jenner, Jesse Metcalf, Derek Hough, Ashley Greene, Hailey Baldwin, Amber Valetta, Tyler Blackburn, Amber Rose and many more.

The play brings together Greta (Golden Globe nominee Marilu Henner), a longtime ACLU donor on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, and Tanner (Emmy nominee Shannon Purser), the young representative sent to secure a substantial contribution. While initially united by progressive values, their conversation quickly exposes a widening generational and ideological rift.

Henner and Purser deliver performances that keep an ideological debate grounded in recognizable human emotion.
