A Look Inside Spotify’s Latest “Dinner With Dustee”

One thing about us? We love a dinner party. There’s just something about a beautiful tablescape that slows things down and brings people together, don’t you think? Spotify showed us how it’s done with their latest “Dinner With Dustee” event, which turned Hollywood private members club Living Room into a cozy dining space for the city’s coolest culture makers, including Jake Shane (who wrote our Winter 2025 cover story), TSITP's Rain Spencer, and Cosmo Z-Star Micky Gordon. Ah, to have a seat at that table.

After a casual cocktail hour to warm things up, cohosts Dustee Jenkins, Spotify’s chief public affairs officer, and Willa Bennett, Cosmo’s editor-in-chief, officially welcomed their guests with a toast and a conversation prompt: What’s the song soundtracking your life right now? If you thought that was the peak of the night, think again: Charlotte Lawrence dropped by before dessert to give an intimate, acoustic performance of tracks from her debut album, Somewhere. Who doesn’t love dinner and a show?

I’ll just say what all of us are thinking: This was easily the dinner party of the year. Luckily for you (and me, honestly), we have tons of pics. Enjoy!
