I was thinking the other day about how I haven't seen any celebs around on the city streets in quite some time. And that made me sad. So I decided to make a list of the ones I have seen in the past, to cheer me up a little. Hopefully, the recent dearth just means there will be a nice major sighting in the near future?
Martin Scorcese, at whom I almost cursed for stopping in front of me as I was walking, before I realized who it was
Julianne Moore on 14th St. holding a kid
David Duchovny, almost bumped into him as he jumped out of a cab while filming some crap movie I never saw
Natalie Portman filming the final scene of Closer in Times Square
Fred Schneider (of the B-52s) in Union Square
James Iha (of Smashing Pumpkins) several times as he used to live near me and hang out at some of the same events as my roommates and I at the time
David Byrne (Talking Heads)stood next to my friend Chris and I at a They Might Be Giants concert
Ric Ocasek (The Cars) in the Meatpacking District one afternoon
Shepard Smith (Faux News) in Times Square. (Does he count? I'm putting it, whatev.)
Jared Leto, I think it was in SoHo off on some weird side street
Ludacris, ate at the Olive Garden
Method Man, same
Neil Patrick Harris, same, sadly enough
Steve Irwin, Crocodile Hunter, promoting his movie by hanging out of a limo in Times Square
Tracy Morgan, OG again
Joanna Cassidy and Cybill Shepard, filming that Martha Stewart tv movie in Times Square
Kristen Chenowith, outside of a B'way premiere
Chris Noth, two or three separate times
Karolina Kurkova, TriBeCa area
Kate Bosworth, shopping in Flat Iron District
Steven Weber, in Hell's Kitchen
Martha Plimpton, on an uptown N train
Mos Def, leaving the W Hotel in Union Square
One of those Madden brothers from Good Charlotte, the LAST time I ever went to MisShapes
Here are some I met when I was working in radio:
Margaret Cho, Scott Thompson, Dave Attell, Michelle Rodriguez, Vin Diesel, Bryan Norcross (only SoFla people will know him)
Also, when I was at Zeta I spoke on the phone to Michael Vartan and Christopher Masterson.
Okay, I feel a little better now!

just catching up on your blog... That is quite an impressive list!! I think it's really funny that those rappers ate at the OG, haha!
Oh, the rappers looooove the OG. Neil Patrick Harris, I'm not really sure what was going on there!
