Stars Come Out for George Clooney, Rande Gerber and Mike Meldman’s Annual Casamigos Tequila Party
By Chilled Magazine
Casamigos Tequila threw their annual “Brought To You By Those Who Drink It” Halloween party at the home of co-founder Mike Meldman on Friday night in Los Angeles.
Upon arrival, guests participated in the famous “Casamigos ice shot” by taking a shot out of ice made shot glasses and throwing the empty shot glass at a bell hanging in the entryway. Decor elements were influenced by Casamigos co-founder, Rande Gerber. Guests celebrated in an environment featuring custom painted skulls, gravestones, a photo-booth and shrines honoring the dead. Signature cocktails served over a custom built Casamigos bar, made from reconditioned Casamigos barrels, including the Mi Casa, Su Casa and Spicy Cucumber Jalapeño Margarita, were enjoyed throughout the night.
Costume highlights included Rande Gerber and Cindy Crawford arriving as Cher and Gregg Allman, Gerard Butler dressed as Captain America, Tim Allen attended as a cowboy, Michelle Trachtenberg as Black Dahlia, Kate Hudson wore skull themed face paint, Molly Sims dressed as a 1970’s disco queen, Hillary Duff dressed as a tooth fairy and Paris Hilton went as Minnie Mouse.
