Martha Stewart

The annual Winter Antiques Show was action-packed, literally: New York Times photographer Bill Cunningham accidentally backed into a male bidder while snapping a photo, causing the gentleman to spill his drink on himself. The man lurched the rest of his drink at Bill, cursed him out, and grabbed his camera! Through this ordeal Cunningham kept his signature temperament—polite and non-combative—even as the attacker became more and more irate. Moral: Never stand behind a horse … or a photographer!

And in the throng Martha Stewart eyed antiques with daughter Alexis, who told The Sheet she’s bought the American Fitness gym in Sag Harbor and is renovating it. Other A-listers ogling the goods included Richard Meier, Mercedes Bass, Arie Kopelman, and Iris Love. The event benefited the East Side House Settlement.
