The Spectator’s evening with model and actress Keeley Hazell

The Spectator and guests gathered at Palo Gallery to toast the publication of Keeley Hazell’s new memoir Everyone’s Seen My Tits: Stories and Reflections from an Unlikely Feminist.

For the uninitiated, Keeley – model, actress and now author – is a former Page 3 girl who regularly appeared on the cover of British ‘lads’ mags’ such as FHM, Loaded, Nuts and Zoo Weekly. In 2007, she was the victim of a highly publicized incident of revenge porn, prompting her to leave London for Los Angeles where she traded modeling for acting, landing roles in Horrible Bosses 2 and Ted Lasso.

Keeley’s debut is a fierce and funny essay collection exploring the relationship between class and feminism, sexual politics and the power of writing your own story.

Following the talk, Keeley fans and Spectator subscribers spilled out onto the cobblestone streets of NoHo, enjoying colorful cocktails named after chapter titles from the book: “Tits up” Margaritas and “Daddy Issue” Palomas were hot favorites, provided by event partner Chrome Horse Society Tequila. The event coincided with Keeley’s birthday, making it an even more festive affair.
