The glitterati return to the desert this fall as legendary producer and acclaimed celebrity photographer Michael Childers presents his wildly popular Hollywood Dine & Dish IV — an intimate, uproarious evening of gourmet dining and gloriously unfiltered Hollywood storytelling.
Set for Thursday, October 30, 2025 at 6:00 p.m., this exclusive benefit for AAP – Food Samaritans will take place at a private Palm Springs residence (address provided upon RSVP). With limited capacity and a history of selling out, this year’s Dine & Dish promises an evening that is as glamorous as it is outrageous.
Guests will be treated to premium cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, fine wines, and a gourmet dinner catered by Eight4Nine, all while enjoying a front-row seat to the kind of behind-the-scenes celebrity stories you won’t find anywhere else — not even TMZ.
And what stories they’ll be. The night’s star-studded lineup features:

Coco Peru, drag legend and truth-teller extraordinaire

Bruce Vilanch, six-time Emmy winner and one of Hollywood’s sharpest (and sassiest) voices
At the helm of it all is Michael Childers, whose decades-long career behind the camera and alongside the stars makes him a treasure trove of juicy anecdotes — some scandalous, some sensational, and most certainly a little salacious.
Beyond the laughter and storytelling, the event serves a vital purpose: proceeds benefit AAP – Food Samaritans’ food voucher program, which supports low-income individuals living with HIV/AIDS and other chronic illnesses throughout the Coachella Valley.
Tickets are $500 per person or $750 per couple and include all food and beverage offerings. To secure your place at this unforgettable night of Hollywood dish and dazzling company, call Mark Anton at 760-325-8481 or visit https://aidsassistance.org/ If you like your dinner with a side of dishy confessions and celebrity spice, you won’t want to miss this
Event sponsors include Scott Histed Architectural Properties and Tom Gleeson State Farm.
