MIAMI — Entrepreneur and multimillionaire Sinan Tuna hosted an extravagant private soirée at a $30 million mansion on Hibiscus Island in Miami Beach on Thursday night to celebrate Art Week.
Celebrity guests including Diplo, Winnie Harlow, Odell Beckham Jr., Taylor Hill, Lenny Hochstein, Jonathan “Foodgod” Cheban, Zack Bia and Miami Mayor Francis Suarez descended on the fête.
The Farmasi CEO, who we hear spent $1.7 million on the blowout bash, was spotted partying at a VIP table as DJs PAWSA and Kaz James spun tunes.

Hochstein, 58, showed up to the party with his ex-fiancée Katharina Mazepa on his arm, sparking rumors that the duo was back together after breaking up in September.

Suarez, 47, was spotted on the dance floor under a laser light show, while Harlow, 30, was seen deep in conversation with some friends in a back area of the exclusive event.
Diplo, 46, arrived close to midnight dressed in a blue suit and chatted with pals on the dance floor as opposed to hanging out in the VIP section.

At one point, Diplo, who made stops at various events throughout the evening, was spotted perusing the sushi bar and even popped into the kitchen to quickly have a bite to eat.
Guests were treated to a luminous fireworks display over Biscayne Bay, performances by fire dancers as well as custom cocktails, an endless flow of Don Julio 1942 Tequila served from custom engraved bottles and wine from the RUMOR Rosé bar.
Tuna’s bash was one of three affected by the city’s new “Art Week PHS House Party Resolution” passed on Nov. 20, which requires large-scale events — with sponsors, dance floors and sound systems — to obtain permits or have hosts face possible arrest.

The party had fewer people than past years, and while many hopeful crashers showed up, security at the door was tight, with many being turned away or giving up on their own.
There was also a heavy police presence outside the party along with a fire marshal. Cops were seen making the rounds inside without incident, too.
Ahead of the annual event, Sinan invited a lucky 250 guests via a custom white gold and diamond ring made by London-based jeweler Cadaro that were estimated to be worth $10,000 each.
A mother in Miami Gardens has been sentenced to five years of probation after her 2-year-old son accidentally shot himself with a gun he found in her purse.
According to police, the incident happened last summer at an apartment complex in Miami Gardens. Authorities say the toddler grabbed his mother’s firearm from her purse and accidentally pulled the trigger, shooting himself in the leg.
Video captured at the scene showed the child being rushed to the hospital on a stretcher. The boy survived and has since fully recovered.
The child’s mother, 35-year-old Christina Monique Doyle, was arrested and charged with child neglect and culpable negligence for allowing easy access to the weapon. Prosecutors said those charges carried a possible sentence of up to 20 years in prison.

During a court hearing, the presiding judge, Alberto Milian, emphasized the responsibility that comes with gun ownership.
“I am a very pro-gun person, but along with the right and the privilege of having a gun comes responsibilities,” Milian said.
Doyle ultimately accepted a plea deal where she pleaded no contest, allowing her to avoid jail time. Instead, she was sentenced to five years of probation.
Her attorney, Dustin Tischler, said Doyle has no prior criminal record and described the incident as a mistake.
“She’s 35 years old, never been in trouble whatsoever in her life,” Tischler said. “She’s a very good mother, a very caring mother to several children. This has been a nightmare, and she’s happy to get it behind her.”

Tischler also said the case should serve as a warning to gun owners about keeping firearms secure around children.
“Even though she had it in her purse and thought it was secure, the child was able to get to it when she was distracted,” he said. “If you have a firearm, it’s important to keep it locked away.”
Tischler said Doyle has completed a parenting program through the Florida Department of Children and Families and how she is allowed to have contact with her children, including her son who is now doing well after recovering from the injury.
NBC6 reached out to DCF about the case but we haven’t heard back yet.
Miami’s own pays tribute to former teacher on SNL Miami’s own Marcello Hernandez brought a piece of home to SNL for his latest performance, giving a tribute to his hometown and a special teacher in that classic Miami accent.
NEW YORK CITY — Miami’s own Marcello Hernandez brought a piece of home to SNL for his latest performance, giving a tribute to his hometown and a special teacher in that classic Miami accent.
During his performance, Hernandez definitely brought the character of “Mr. Fronzi” to life.
The over-the-top teacher with a big heart was a character inspired by his real-life theology teacher at Miami-Dade’s private Belen Jesuit Preparatory School, Angie Fernandez.

And Hernandez even flew her up to New York City to see the skit live in person.
“When I saw the skit, I was flabbergasted. I laughed from here to eternity. It was so good,” Fernandez said. “I am so honored that he chose to imitate me. That’s the best compliment you can give somebody!”
Fernandez said that while Hernandez drove her crazy in her classroom, he was also always humble, honest and she calls him one of her favorite students.
