Artist Jeff Koons has to wait outside DuJour party

Even the world’s most sought­after artists sometimes have to wait on line to get into Art Basel’s hottest parties.

Jeff Koons, whose Balloon Dog sculpture was sold for a ­record-breaking $58.4 million at Christie’s last month, waited ­patiently for about 15 minutes outside the iconic Delano hotel for ­entry into Jason Binn’s DuJour ­Magazine party.

A witness told us, “Jeff waited quietly until he was eventually spotted and escorted into the party. He didn’t make a fuss.”

Others making a grander ­entrance into the packed poolside bash included Roberto Cavalli, Val Kilmer, Lionel Richie, Bruce Weber, Kanye West and Kim Kardashian and Jonathan Che­ban.
