Life IS a Cabaret for Luann de Lesseps and Tilda Swinton … sorry Bethenny!
The Real Housewives of New York star performed a sold-out show in London’s iconic West End Theater and was introduced by the Oscar-winning actress.
Presenting Tilda Swinton introducing Lu!
Tilda addressed the enthusiastic crowd.
“My lords, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, king and queens and everyone in between, it gives me great pleasure – joy – to welcome all to this lucky stage in this happy house on the grounds that Chic C’est La Vie, you’re favorite woman and mine: the glorious Countess Luann de Lesseps.”
Tilda and Luann’s friendship history:
In June 2024, Tilda attended one of Lu’s cabaret shows in London.
According to Lu, Tilda said, “Darling, I love what you do. You can see it gives you so much joy and you’re spreading joy to everyone around you. It’s a beautiful thing to watch. It was amazing.”
The gal pals got along swimmingly, so Swinton invited the former Countess to spend a night in Scotland where she currently resides.
“Well, we get there, it’s a 300-acre property with a castle,” she said. “And she takes care of me.”
Allegedly, Tilda allegedly asked Lu to call Dorinda Medley, but she told Luann that she “couldn’t talk.”
Luann returned the favor:
The RHONY Legacy cast member was a guest of Tilda’s at the premiere of her film, The Room Next Door in late 2024.
“And Countess Luann is here, right?” Tilda asked enthusiastically. “Has she arrived? I haven’t seen her yet. I think she’s coming to see the film!” Lu did make it in time for the movie, but Page Six reported she missed the red carpet.
