**Hollywood’s Wild Evening: Laughter Amid Scandals and a Dash of Provocation**
An evening at the Friars Club brought together Hollywood heavyweights and controversial figures, creating a spectacle filled with joking jabs and unexpected revelations.
With high-profile names like Spielberg, Hunter Biden, and Larry Ellison's son David mingling at a VIP table in the Friars Club, the night took a riotous turn when Spielberg initiated the comedy with a playful quip aimed at former FBI Director Louis Freeh. “Good evening, everyone! Let’s get this started with a softball. Louis, what’s the best thing about 22-year-olds?” he asked, prompting Freeh's nervous response that underscored the evening's blend of humor and tension.
Freeh’s reticence only fueled the room's laughter, especially when Spielberg followed up with a punchline: “The best thing about 22-year-olds is… there’s 20 of them!” With uproarious laughter filling the space, Hunter Biden was particularly entertained, nearly spilling his drink as he exclaimed, “Man, that’s worth a stint in jail!”
David Ellison soon chimed in with a mischievous grin, turning the conversation towards sensitive topics. “Speaking of distribution, Louis, you wouldn’t know anything about LimeWire’s 67,000 child porn files, would you? My dad swears he didn’t code all of them.” The table erupted into further laughter, with Shari Redstone joining in with her own quip about distribution.
Despite the playful atmosphere, Freeh maintained a cool demeanor, raising his glass with the disclaimer, “Policy. It’s always policy.” Spielberg later concluded with another jab at Freeh, celebrating him as “the only man who can dodge a scandal better than Hunter dodges taxes!”
Biden capitalized on the humor as well, humorously referring to his own controversial laptop’s whereabouts. As toasts were made, Freeh quietly exited, muttering about wishing he had stuck with the Mafia, leaving a night marked by wit and the undercurrents of the intrigue that often characterizes the lives of celebrity elite.
