I usually attend Doris Bergman’s events. They are really fun and chock full of interesting brands and people. Unfortunately I wound up really sick and couldn’t go. Good thing too because I would not have wanted *share* what I had with anyone. Thanks to Elisabeth Collazos (a regular contributor to LA-Story.com and a darn fine writer) who was able to attend and was able to provide this great feature on this WOW event!
As spring weather slowly starts to set in, stylish soirees blossom in Los Angeles. On Saturday, Feb. 24th, Doris Bergman (Bergman PR) hosted her Tenth Anniversary Valentine Romance Oscar Style Lounge + Party at Fig + Olivein West Hollywood.

It was a magical afternoon at the Oscars 2018 Gifting Suite, and no one knows how to produce an event like Doris Bergman. There was a lovely energy in the courtyard filled with romance and style.

Author Alexis Hunter/”Joi Lansing – A Body To Die For,”
“Joi Lansing: A Body to Die For” colorfully chronicles personal and intimate details of the last four years of the talented ‘50’s “blonde bombshell” star’s fascinating life. After three decades of successful TV and movie appearances and Vegas singing stardom, Ms. Lansing died far too young at just 43. Though her funeral was attended by luminaries of the day (Frank Sinatra sent a huge floral display), her light went out relatively unceremoniously. Always just on the verge of “making it big,” Joi packed them in with standing room only in Vegas, but when the curtain came down, and the audience was gone, who was she?
