Conversation With Tina O And Jane Fonda
Posted by Tommy Garrett on Oct 25, 2009 - 12:49:44 AM

HOLLYWOOD HILLS Beautiful Beverly Hills socialite Tina O and her husband Dr. Brad Hillstrom enjoyed dinner with longtime friend Richard Perry at his beautiful Hollywood Hills home over the weekend with their now college student and marine son, Brad, Jr. Richard is the boyfriend of Oscar winning actress Jane Fonda.

Also in attendance at the party was Laura Mendoza who just completed the film, “The Confession,” which just opened in San Francisco. She is an old family friend of Richard Perry's also. Tina has claimed Richard Perry and Jane Fonda as the latest “cutest couple” on her blog. She also has for many months been writing her husband’s praises as a physician and businessman, who is involved with companies within the medical system. Last month, Dr. Hillstrom accompanied Richard and Jane to the Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale, Ariz., where Richard had a full physical exam. Leave it to Tina O to ask Bill, “Did you approve of the music in the elevators?” she said joking.

Brad did his residency at the Scottsdale clinic and has fond memories of hard work and learning about the medical profession there. Tina O tells Canyon News, “We both believe it is the very best medical center in the country and need I remind you, it has been ranked number one by the U.S. News and World Report, with Johns Hopkins and UCLA alternating for the number two and three spots.”

Jane Fonda says, “I was blown away by the Mayo’s integrated system of healthcare. There is a doctor who is the team leader and every doctor involved with treating patients is fully apprised of what every other doctor has found and all medications that are being given.” Tina O adds, “The team leader summarizes all the findings at the end of the entire process. Bill, Jane and Richard were there for three days. Jane and I could go on about all this stuff for hours but won’t. Suffice to say, the level of expertise of every single doctor was mind blowing to my husband, Jane and Richard.” Jane also commented, “I have now been to two of the Mayo Clinics and found this to be true in both of them.”

The flagship Mayo Clinic is of course the one in Rochester, Minn. Fonda adds, “Brad was with us the whole time and having him present as a friend with a doctor’s eye was invaluable,” said Jane. Then added, “Everyone should have such a friend.” Tina O responded during the interview by saying, “Everyone should know how fun and brilliant the vexing Jane Fonda is and remains more so than ever. She makes me laugh before she utters a word as I can read her mind and heart.”

Hillstrom concluded by adding, “Richard Perry has one of the best musicals that is opening again in L.A. called ‘Baby, It’s You,’ which I have seen 14 times and will be going back for more. We giggled to great food from ‘Real Food Daily,’ which I had no idea there was no meat in anything and loved it and then watched retro ‘Play Boy After Midnight” from the '60s with Lenny Bruce.”

Jane Fonda said “Tina O is a lot like Lenny, only she wears a skirt.” Tina quickly reacted by saying, “How do you know that he didn’t?” Tina O’s one of Beverly Hills most priceless treasures.
