While several VIP after-parties are already well-publicized, Benny’s hush-hush soiree has set tongues wagging about who will attend and is set to be more intimate.
Sources say it is still in the planning stages.
While it will clash with the famous Neon Carnival and TAO Group Hospitality’s Desert Nights, it’s set to be a much smaller affair.
“Benny’s party is the talk of the Hollywood scene at the minute as it’s rumored Selena, Taylor, and Travis could join,” one insider told The U.S. Sun.
“Likely, they will all go and see Lana Del Rey’s set on Friday night, she is obviously in their inner circle, and then party on Saturday, too.
“The house is a smaller venue than where the other parties are hosted and is located behind custom entry gates and fully fenced off, which will be handy if crashers try to get in.
“There will be heavy security and the guest list is extremely tight.”
‘NO EXPENSE SPARED’
The U.S. Sun contacted Benny’s reps for comment but did not immediately hear back.
A separate source told The U.S. Sun that there is “no expense spared” and it is hosted by major brands, not just Benny, and sponsors will be involved in throwing the rumored party.
Although Selena is thought to be in New York for work, she could still fly in for a quick Coachella visit.
Multiple reports suggest Taylor and Travis will attend this year’s festival, and the Daily Mail alleges they are staying at a luxe members-only resort minutes from the festival site.
They are reportedly splashing the cash for a vacation spot at The Madison Club in La Quinta.
“They want privacy so The Madison Club is perfect for them because not just anyone can stay there,” a source told DailyMail.com.
“They don’t want a ton of eyes on them, they want to be able to let their guard down and be comfortable.
The insider added that Travis loves to play golf in the desert and the venue is the perfect place for them to relax amidst the festivities.
The U.S. Sun reported that actress Lori Loughlin and her husband Mossimo Giannulli enjoyed a secret trip to the uber-exclusive resort after their jail stints.
‘LUXURY RESIDENCE’
The Madison Club has been popular with stars over the years, including the Kardashians, who also own huge homes nearby.
A bio on the venue’s website reads: “Whether it is championship-caliber golf, gourmet cuisine, a multitude of outdoor activities, or luxurious residences, The Madison Club is the finest family-oriented community in the Coachella Valley.”
Membership includes a one-time $600 initiation fee and can cost up to $2,000 a month, while the site features a state-of-the-art fitness center, spa, and movie theater.
The first weekend of Coachella begins in Indio, California, on Friday, April 12, and Lana will perform the headline slot at 11.20 pm.
Taylor, 34, has allegedly mapped out her weekend with Travis and their close friends.
“Taylor and Lana had dinner this week to talk about their time at Coachella, and what they will be doing and wearing,” a source also told the outlet.
“So they already have it all planned. They want to have fun and really enjoy themselves while in the desert and make it stress-free.”
Taylor’s new album, The Tortured Poets Department, will drop on April 19 – the first day of Coachella’s second weekend.
