Ellen Pompeo is Pleasant @ Y-3

Ellen Pompeo gets sandwiched between music exec husband Chris Ivery and supermodel Helena Christensen while sitting front row at the Y-3 Fall 2008 fashion show at Pier 40 during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2008 on Sunday in New York City.

Photographers went crazy trying to snap pictures of the trio but Pompeo handled the attention gracefully as always. NY Magazine reports, “Though we have never heard particularly favorable whispers about her temperament, we have to give credit where credit is due: In this situation, where b—-iness would not only be understood but probably justified, Pompeo remained downright pleasant and even gave a huge smile and greeting to the PR person frantically trying to find her a seat.”

If you didn’t know, Y-3 is iconic Japanese designer Yohji Yamamoto’s collaboration with Adidas sportswear.
