Monica Lewinsky and former Bill Clinton White House press secretary Dee Dee Myers were seen in deep conversation at the Hollywood Reporter’s Women in Entertainment event.
Although Myers had left the White House by the time the Lewinsky scandal erupted in 1998, for which she’s said she was “grateful,” she was onboard for another difficult sex scandal that dogged Clinton during his run for office in 1992, involving Gennifer Flowers.
Myers — now head of communications at Warner Bros. — was seen huddled with Lewinsky at the event in LA, and an onlooker told Page Six: “They were having what looked like a good long chat.”
Lewinsky — who now campaigns against bullying — addressed the room of celebs, which also included teenage girls, on Wednesday.
She admitted: “We have each made a mistake in our career that has come with consequences. And probably everyone in this room can agree, that among all of us here today, when it comes to the worst mistake or mistake with the worst consequences, I definitely win. Hands down!”
She added: “And know, from the deepest part of you, that you can move on from it, you can grow from it, and you can survive it.”
“Widows” star Viola Davis and “The Hunger Games” producer Nina Jacobson were honored at the event.
