Teen pop idol Jesse McCartney (no relation to Paul) held a “top secret” CD listening party at the JW Marriott on Wednesday night, along with radio station HOT 99.5. He also stopped by XM radio during the day.
Meanwhile, former “Grey’s Anatomy” star Isaiah Washington was spotted strolling the halls of Capitol Hill on Wednesday afternoon, as were R&B stars Bebe Winans and Chuck Brown. The celebs were in town to lobby on behalf of the Performance Rights Act of 2007. Washington also was on the Hill to argue for the preservation of Bunce Island in Sierra Leone. Later, Washington — a big fan of cigars — was spotted at Shelley’s Backroom Tavern, where the smoking is a-plenty.
