It could have been the Cannes film festival, the way the water glittered in the background and the fans swarmed their favorite stars and the photographers clicked and clicked. PVC FabricOne of those photographers, scruffy and lavishly tattooed, appeared suddenly as Katie Lee walked from her grand hotel, #xwhere the event’s organizers had ensconced her in a junior suite on a high floor, toward the temporary city of beachfront tents where her presentation would take place.
“Katie!” he shouted as he stepped nimbly backward, so that Lee would remain centered in his frame as she moved nonchalantly forward. “Katie!”
“Paparazzi,” she said to me with a smile, a shrug and a little laugh — she was clearly tickled by the attention, maybe because she tended to get less of it than the event’s major players, even though she was a repeat performer. “They always hang out here.”
“Here” was a patch of squat dunes between the hotel and a fleet of electric golf carts poised to carry her and other headliners to the tents, so that they didn’t have to struggle through the Miami sand or melt in the Miami sun, which shined down like a spotlight in these last days of February.
Lee hopped in a chauffeured cart, was at the tents in under a minute and had plenty of time, before her 12:45 p.m. show, to hang out in the “greenroom,登车桥,” a private tent for the talent that required a special pass. She took sips from a flute of free Champagne as a technician threaded a microphone cord from the waist of her blue jeans toward the collar of a long-sleeved crew neck, white with blue stripes. PVC FabricHer outfit — a costume, #xreally — was supposed to evoke a summer picnic, though not all of it was quite that casual. On her feet she wore gold, elaborately detailed Bottega Veneta sandals, and on her toenails she had vivid peach polish.
“Tart Deco,” she said the shade was called.
Showtime. Lee ascended the stage, which faced hundreds of seats in neat rows. The majority weren’t filled, but the scores of fans who turned out paid close attention as she put lime juice, cantaloupe chunks and mint into a blender, cooing about cool fruit on a hot day, and then pressed a button that turned all of it into a soup. “How easy is that?” she asked. The audience clapped.
She made a marinade for vegetables that would be grilled and placed on baguettes, #xand defended two of the marinade’s ingredients. “A lot of people are kind of snobby about garlic powder and onion powder,” she said, her faint Southern drawl seeming to flare just then. “I happen to love them.” When the sandwiches were done, there was more applause, and there was more still when she left the stage after about 35 minutes,PVC Fabric her assembly of a picnic lunch complete.
