― RoxyMuzak© (roxymuzak), Saturday, 9 September 2006 20:25 (seventeen years ago) link

last night in Selfridges - Nigel Quaashie (sp?) and also some Charlton also-ran.

― Porkpie (porkpie), Saturday, 9 September 2006 20:44 (seventeen years ago) link

also: ian svenonious talking about his book and making the awkward joke that it was titled "Garfield". I mean...I think it was a joke. He was kind of boring too.

justin long is the next generation/multiplicity version of jimmy fallon

-- gear (speed.to.roa...), September 9th, 2006.

no way, he's not nearly as annoying as Fallon.

i see what you're saying though. but at least he's not a "comedian"

― latebloomer (latebloomer), Sunday, 10 September 2006 00:33 (seventeen years ago) link

I don't know how it happened, but I never, ever come within a kilometer of any place where a celebrity might possibly be caught, either dead or alive. We inhabit different universes.

-- Aimless (aimles...), September 9th, 2006. (Aimless) (later) (link)

this has always been my life until this job (thanks forks!). the only famous person i'd ever spotted before the past month or two was jared leto once at the mall in rochester (weird, but it was totally him).

anyway...
saturday evening: steve buscemi and david byrne.

jumped on the subway with two youngish co-workers and lo and behold, bebe neuwrith was sitting across from us on the train. she gets off, a few stops later i idly ask if they noticed, and they not only not know who she is, but are unfamiliar with the show Cheers.

i'm not even 30 yet but feel so old.

― mr. brojangles (sanskrit), Tuesday, 12 September 2006 02:48 (seventeen years ago) link

oh shit what is wrong with your coworkers? i would have been psyched to see her - is she as hot as i imagine she'd be in person?

― fellini-esque-lit-rockist (tehresa), Tuesday, 12 September 2006 02:53 (seventeen years ago) link

m.i.a. at the cat power show last night, talking about her new record. guess that u.s. work visa wasn't a problem after all.

I saw Cynthia Nixon again.

Walking toward subway w/my wife yesterday she said "oh that was Cynthia Nixon, you've seen here around too, hmm?" As it happened, I was ogling another woman at that moment, so I grunted "Uh huh."

― m coleman (lovebug starski), Friday, 15 September 2006 09:03 (seventeen years ago) link

Fair enough, there's plenty of British "celebrities" on this thread who no-one outside the UK will ever have heard of (xpost)

― Oh No It's Dadaismus! (Dada), Friday, 15 September 2006 09:04 (seventeen years ago) link

Last night, N4than L4ne, walking his dog, avoiding eye contact, near Holland Tunnel exit. Then I saw Cat Power on the A train, wearing Joey Ramone-style knees-missing jeans, but maybe it was just a ringer.

― Run Ruud Run (Ken L), Thursday, 21 September 2006 14:38 (seventeen years ago) link

Ek. Jared Leto. I think I'd vomit right on the spot.

― Nathalie (stevie nixed), Thursday, 21 September 2006 18:29 (seventeen years ago) link

I saw Bryce Dallas Howard at the Loteria Grill inside the Farmer's Market. I only recognized who she was because posters for that damn Lady In The Water movie were saturating L.A. for so long.

― Elvis Telecom (Chris Barrus), Monday, 25 September 2006 17:09 (seventeen years ago) link

nina sosanya (pic below as i had no idea what her name was until now) outside a caff on upper st (i think it was upper st, can't really remember) last week.

B3n Aff1eck and Jennifer were making out on a bench in the courtyard of my dorm last year, no joke! I should have taken some pics and sold them.

Hayl3y West3nra at the "Wicked" London premiere the other night. Astonishingly I didn't see a single other celeb.

saw common again - dude is always wearing the worst hats. a knit pageboy, ugh.

― jhoshea (scoopsnoodle), Friday, 29 September 2006 15:09 (seventeen years ago) link

what was wicked like?

― emsk ( emsk), Friday, 29 September 2006 15:18 (seventeen years ago) link

I really enjoyed it. The music wasn't all that, the lyrics a bit meh, but the story was great fun and it looked fantastic. If brassy west end musicals are your thing then I'm sure you'd like it.

― === temporary username === (Mark C), Friday, 29 September 2006 15:30 (seventeen years ago) link

Indie-film perennial Josh Hamilton and alt-comedian Todd Barry at Yo La Tengo show in Jersey City.

a knit pageboy, ugh.

Someone Common loves is a knitter. Give the man a break.

last week: carlos santana (a regular customer at my place of employment) and lady sovereign. i was forced by my superiors to do a brief meet-n-greet with sov and her manager & dj, and a rep from def jam. all of us, including sov, were not thrilled to be chatting.

― something less threatening (heywood), Monday, 2 October 2006 16:37 (seventeen years ago) link

this dude came into the coffee house i usually go to yesterday. i didn't see him but the girl behind the counter said he was on 'gilmore girls' playing some foreign kid. so i guess him, whoever he is.

― gear (gear), Monday, 2 October 2006 16:39 (seventeen years ago) link

The other day, Ms Dynamite and both of the Mighty Boosh within thirty seconds of each other on my road.

last week they shot a gilmore girls episode on my campus -- they were pretending it was yale.

On the way to Jay-Z+Beyonce+Nas+Chris Martin+Gwyneth+Memphis Bleek last week, Sam "Preston-but-not-Britney's-kid" Preston from some reality series jumped out of a black Beemer with a smirk. He was heading for a hotel.

― Badrock Example (Barima), Tuesday, 3 October 2006 15:55 (seventeen years ago) link
