Kitty Kelley Gets Proper…
…Topper that is. Tomorrow Georgetowner and gossiper-in-chief, Kitty Kelley, will be appearing at Proper Topper (at 3213 P St.) from 2:00 to 4:00 to chat about (and sign) her new book, Oprah: A Biography.

In addition, the ANC wants to discuss the voluntary agreements of George nightclub and the new Crepe Amour/Georgetown Wing Co.
