The Barnstable Brown Gala

Larry Birkhead, ex-boyfriend of the late Anna Nicole Smith, was seen at the Kentucky Derby’s parties this week. He actually met Anna Nicole Smith in 2004 at the Barnstable Brown Gala, one of the biggest parties held during Derby week.

Birkhead told reporters that he’s originally from Louisville and that he has just bought a new house there.

The Barnstable Brown Gala is held every year by the former “Doublemint Twins,” Patricia Barnstable Brown and Priscilla Barnstable, to raise funds for diabetes research at the University of Louisville and the University of Kentucky.
