White House Correspondents’ Dinner: Where the Stars Are Sitting

The White House Correspondents’ Dinner picked up a big dose of much needed giltz this week with the announcements that Barbra Streisand and Psy will attend the event – and that E! Entertainment will live-stream its coverage of red carpet arrivals.

E!’s decision takes what’s often called the “nerd prom” into the realm of a Hollywood-esque awards show — a first for the annual Washington event, which will be hosted this year by Conan O’Brien.

Here’s a round-up who’s going on Saturday night and where they’re sitting:

Bloomberg: The news service will host Streisand as well as Showtime Entertainment President David Nevins and cast members from Netflix’ House of Cards, including Kevin Spacey and Robin Wright.  Netflix Chief Content Officer Ted Sarandos is also attending.
