Crasher heads to trial after Crashing Oscar Party

The owner of the mansion where the lavish 2011 soiree was held hoped to promote her upstart personal management company's services at the party, but the event planner says it repeatedly told her she couldn't attend.

The owner of the mansion and chief executive of Accomplice Lifestyle Elizabeth Mazzocchi hoped that by offering her property, she could launch her upstart personal management company's services to "presidents of the top luxury brands." But JBB didn't want Mazzocchi to attend the party -- and it says it repeatedly told her so.

Now, the sides are locked in a legal dispute. Mazzocchi sued first, claiming JBB promised Accomplice would be made a Vanity Fair "marketing partner," but instead she was denigrated to the magazine's reps as the mere "groundskeeper" of the estate.
