Ovechkin's stick, Kutcher and Moore, Soho Rooms

from Vogue.ru, Nov. 1, 2010:



Moscow - About 300 guests gathered from all over the world yesterday at the Ritz Carlton hotel, including Megha Mittal, the owner of the brand Escada, actress and actor Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher, the pair came to Moscow together for the first time, and designer Philipp Plein. The occasion was more than adequate, a charity event sponsored by Escada, Cartier and Moet. Among the items sold during the auction were the chair autographed by Mikhail Gorbachev and Helmut Kohl, Alexander Ovechkin's and Vladislav Tretiak's hockey sticks, Escada dress and dances with Demi and Ashton. All proceeds from the sale went to Moore and Kutcher's "The DNA Foundation" fund. After that, the celebrity couple, who defied talk of marriage trouble, went to a party at Soho Rooms.

Ouch, Ashton Kutcher and Soho Rooms? Isn't it the place to pick up some telochki? :-)

I'll have some rice pilaf and the vegetable medley with the veal cutlets please LOL.

TJ, I finally get the joke about telochki and calves. It's all about the food! :)

Does anyone know what Ovie's stick went for at the auction?

BobbyG,

"Telochki" translates as "chicks".

To pick up "telochki" means to pick up girls.

@TJ: epic fail of my attempt at humor LOL! I tried to do something food related (calf =veal) with this excerpt from the GQ piece:

"You should go pick up some telochki." The word literally means "calves" and semantically falls somewhere between "chicks" and "bitches."

Unless I'm dense and the "calves" refer to a woman's legs and not a young beef animal??? ROFL
