Likewise, Koenig was raised Jewish and had a bar mitzvah. He says he was very much influenced by his parents, Jewish professional people who are serious fans of varied musical genres. On a scholarship, Koenig went to Columbia University, where he and three other students (one a woman) formed in 2005 the literate band Vampire Weekend. He’s the band’s lead guitarist and lead vocalist. Vampire really broke out in 2010 with a CD (Contra) that was a worldwide big seller. Koenig is also the creator of the Neflix animated series Neo Yokio — and I have to say, like Jones, he is really cute — two shayna punims. TWO WEDDINGS AND A BABY On Sept. 29, Gwyneth Paltrow wed long- time beau Brad Falchuk, 47, in a private backyard ceremony at her Hamptons home. Reports say that guests included Jerry Seinfeld, 64, and Steven Spielberg, 71. Seinfeld, whose wife, Jessica, is a close friend of Paltrow’s, hosted the couple’s rehearsal dinner. As I write this, no news has leaked out as to whether it was a secu- lar or Jewish wedding. Paltrow, who identifies as Jewish, was close to her late father, director Bruce Paltrow. Falchuk, like Paltrow, has two children under 18 from a previous Gwyneth Paltrow and marriage (his first wife was Brad Falchuk ON TV Jewish; Paltrow’s ex, rock The Romanoffs is an star Chris Martin, isn’t). eight-episode anthology Falchuk is best known as series that begins streaming the co-producer/co-creator on Amazon on Oct. 12. It’s of Glee and American Horror about people around the Story. globe who think they are By coincidence, Paltrow’s descendants of the Russian mother, Blythe Danner (who royal family.

Amanda Peet the brutal way in which the Musician Ezra Koenig, last tsar, a Romanoff, and 34, and actress Rashida his family were killed. However, then I read Jones, 42, had a son named Isaiah Jones that the creator and writer of the series is Koenig about six weeks ago. The boy is Matthew Weiner, 53. He gets historical Jones’ first child, and I believe the same details right and his new show may be is true of Koenig. Jones is the daughter of great. Weiner was a major writer for The actress Peggy Lipton, 72, and legendary Sopranos and the creator and writer of Mad African American music producer Quincy Men.
