We learn (through Radar of all places!) that Rush & Molloy have confirmed our previous report that Vanity Fair wrangled Andy Warhol's whole Factory crew together for a photo shoot. They, apparently, have more embedded spies than we, and tick of the names you should expect to see come (what we believe will be) February. (Note, of course, the People-style missing accreditation.)

Photog Todd Eberle gathered such disciples of the Pope of Pop as Viva, Sylvia Miles, Holly Woodlawn, Paige Powell, John Cale, Bob Colacello, Taylor Mead, Jane Holzer, Pat Hackett, Monique van Vooren, Marc Balet, Ronnie Cutrone and Jay Johnson. Missing from the portrait was Brigid Berlin. "Brigid is very conscious of her weight, so she asked Vincent Fremont to bring a photo of her. Todd said that wasn't going to work." Viva brought her own documentary crew to the seven-hour shoot at Serge Becker's 205 lounge on Chrystie St. "Some of these women still think they're 'superstars,'" a spy tells us. "Ultraviolet said, 'I have to leave in five minutes!' As if she had someplace to go." …

Honestly, we were more excited to see it before we realized what a botched collection of has-beens is actually left of this debacle of a crew. But, as it goes in the world of Vanity Fair profiles, if it's important to Jane Sarkin and Ingrid Sischy, it's going to be important to you damnit.
