history channel nod for the actual studio 54

on the history channel, they aired a program talking about different social aspects of the 70s, and studio 54 came up. they talked about its opening and its end and everything in between.

the original cowboy from the village people received some airtime, discussing his experiences at studio 54. at one point, he says that someone very famous walked in and did some cocaine, but the name was bleeped out. i think he made reference to that person being a very famous/important female.

does anyone know the identity of this person or does anyone know anything about what i speak of?

Didn't see the cable show, but within the past few months I read that Randy Jones (the Cowboy) of the Village People recently either wrote a "tell all" book or gave a very revealing interview about his debauchery during that era.

Apparently, he doesn't shy away from dropping names. I'm not sure who he says his Studio cocaine cohort was, but I read that he claims he received oral sex at a party at Andy Warhol's from an aspiring actor/model who went on to become a Scientologist and Top Gun at the box office.

It was Lillian Carter, the mother of then-president Jimmy Carter.
