NEW YORK — Chelsea Clinton arrived quietly with two of her three children, Charlotte and Aiden, at the Youth America Grand Prix ballet gala at Lincoln Center.

“The daughter looks just like her mother,” said one fan.

Sitting nearby was another political dynasty: Judith Pisar and her daughter Leah, former Secretary of State Antony Blinken‘s mother and sister, respectively.

Opening on stage was Mick Jagger’s baby mama (and YAGP alumna) Melanie Hamrick. Partying later with them was Mick’s son Lucas Jagger, 25, whose mother is Luciana Gimenez.

Hamrick’s co-host Andy Cohen told the crowd, “Hello New York City! Hello ballet fans! I was called the Baryshnikov of Bravo tonight, I’m going to keep that! I’m changing my Instagram bio immediately.”

Carol Leifer — the inspiration for Elaine on “Seinfeld” — never gets credit for a joke that’s become overused.

On the SDR Show with Ralph Sutton, Sutton revealed that he saw Leifer live when he was 12, and still remembers her line, “I don’t have any kids … that I know of.”

Leifer said how it’s become so universal, no woman who uses it now has any idea that it stemmed from her comedy routine.

Plugging her new book “How to Write a Funny Speech for a Wedding, Bar Mitzvah & Every Other Event You Didn’t Want to Go to in the First Place,” Leifer covered working her one weird year on “Saturday Night Live.”

Always dapper Mayor Eric Adams was overheard complimenting the suit of PR guru R. Couri Hay during the image maker’s birthday party at the opening of the restaurant La Piazza at 20 East 49th Street.

Hizzoner told Couri he was sticking to his “plant-based” diet, so the hotspot’s critically acclaimed chef Fabrizio Barretta — who was flown over by owners Juljan and Ledjo Musabelliu from their flagship restaurant in Venice, Italy — made sure the mayor got the right dishes.

Ann Dexter-Jones, the wife of Foreigner’s Mick Jones, designers Julia Haart and Nicole Miller, Liliana Cavendish, travel writer Joe Alexander and lighting guru Bentley Meeker were all there.

So was Michael Gross, whose new tell-all will be about St. Barts and the stars and billionaires who frequent its beaches.

Others in the fun mix were Liz and Todd Shapiro, NY Assembly Member Rebecca Seawright, Herb Karlitz, designer TC Chou, and plastic surgeon Dr. Tony Berlet and his podcaster wife Kerry Berlet, whose popular show, “Once Upon a Surgery,” features in-depth interviews with her husband’s patients.

Mariah Carey, Blake Lively, Joe Rogan, Charlie Sheen, Goldie Hawn and rapper Macklemore are all collectors of contemporary pop artist DeVon.

Charles Saffati and Claude Pardo, who helm Carlton Fine Arts, will host a reception for the artist on May 14 to celebrate his solo exhibition at 543 Madison Ave.

Following in the artistic lineage of Andy Warhol, DeVon will show portraits of celebrities including Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn. He will also feature paintings of Paul McCartney, John Lennon, Ringo Starr and George Harrison well ahead of the release of the band’s biopic, a four-part film series coming out in April of 2028.

“It’s my way to make a difference in this world. To inspire people to live their life as if it were their own heroic story,” says DeVon.

The volatile stock market could be preventing unhappy couples from divorcing.

Top divorce lawyer Martha Cohen Stine, who has represented Laurence Fishburne and Andrew Cuomo, said, “You may think that the strain of a bear market likely stresses marriages and leads to increased rates of divorce.

“But in fact, a bad economy may deter the spouses from pursuing a divorce because the value of their assets has decreased and there is not enough money to fund two households. Lawyers call this the ‘affordability constraint.’ During tough economic times, the inability to sell homes, depleted savings, and job insecurity sometimes make splitting up a financial impossibility.”

So think it through before you file for a divorce you might not be able to afford.
