Hello Kitty is marking her 35th with three weeks of art, events, and weird food at cafe and gallery Royal/T. Thursday night was the invite-only opening party, and attendees included Dave Navarro, Kimora Lee Simmons, Paris Hilton, Tim Biskup and other celebrities not stuck in a line stretching down the block. "Everyone is on the list!" an exasperated publicist explained when we inquired about the miserable wait.

We gave up on the event, but it wasn't a total waste - the girls waiting in line were as cute as any of the art inside.

Die hard Kitty fans endure the wait outside.
