“You sure missed quite a show yesterday at Ronni Chasen’s funeral,” a friend wrote this morning. “Every hypocrite in Hollywood was there, claiming to have been her dearest pal. And check this pic of someone who didn’t get a seat at Ronni’s service, and who ended up standing around the edge but at least got his mug in this L.A. Times photo since photographers weren’t allowed any closer to the event and were forced to shoot the standees.”


The caption for this L.A. Times photo, which accompanies Nicole Sperling’s account of yesterday’s service, reads as follows: “Men mourn the loss of Hollywood publicist Ronni Chasen during her memorial service at the Hillside Memorial Park Cemetery in Fox Hills on Sunday.”
