Last night (August 3rd) my friends and I went to the 30 Seconds to Mars concert at Irving Plaza. After 25 minutes of painfully bad music we fled the venue and decided to start the night out at the dive bar next door, Bar 119 I believe. Much to our surprise, Jared Leto was standing outside the bar talking to a very done-up Lindsay Lohan. Jared was about 5'8" by the way and in eye liner and black bondage attire, his feeble attempt at being goth. Lindsay twittered off and Jared went into the bar. Of course about 20 minutes later Lindsay showed up and proceeded to sit about 1 foot away from Jared but never speak to him. Jared left the bar and Lindsay followed 20 minutes later. She seemed extremely coked up and was bouncing around the room and shaking like a cold chihuahua, and she was also very chummy with Jared's band members. My favorite quote of the night was from Jared's security guard outside of Jared's tour bus "We need to get these fucking people out of here, I mean I've got equipment coming out on this side and Lindsay Lohan on the other, what the fuck."
Last night 8/3 we sat next Mary-Kate Olsen on the roof top of BED. She was lounging around with a really ugly, pale, scruffy guy and chain smoking.
Yesterday (August 2), I saw Matt Damon at the Lafayette Street Crunch. He did boxing in the ring on the second floor with his trainer. He wore a knit cap, despite the fact that it was 90 degrees at 8am. I have to give him "regular joe" points for several things - working out in a real gym like the rest of us, being in the city in August like the rest of us, getting up at 8 and working out like someone with a job, and being so DAMN CUTE. He really is.
Last night (8/4) on First Avenue between 1st St. & Houston I saw every 16-year-old girl's fantasy: Josh Hartnett having dinner with Leonardo DiCaprio in the outdoor seating area of some very average-looking resaurant. Both were wearing a (seemingly mandatory) ugly baseball cap like that's fooling anyone.
was hanging out listening to the band at cafe wha? on macdougal tonight when one of the singers announced Ray Romano was in the house. he was sitting a table away from me and had some good-looking dudes amongst his group of friends that had previously caught my eye so i hadn't even noticed him. he was pleasantly greeting the occasional approaching fan and taking pics and the band even honored his special request to have a few female singers take over the mic and belt out some tunes.
saw claire danes walking down sullivan street last night 8/2 with a friend. Her hair is really long and blonde, she looked good.. thin, but good.
My friends and I saw Kevin Bacon yesterday evening at the Loew's in Lincoln Center. He came up behind us in the popcorn line (well we were sort of straddling two lines) and asked which one we were standing in. He was wearing a trucker hat and some sunglasses (at night and indoors, which gave him away.) Unable to speak, I just pointed awkwardly to the line next to us. He's a slight man, shortish, small legs very dainty but in this rugged, masculine way. I thought it was cool that he was standing in line with the rest of us commoners. He bought a small popcorn maybe that's how he keeps his petite figure. So amazing — I wanted to break out into the footloose dance, but instead just gawked. He went into a 7:20 showing of Hustle and Flow.
On Lafayette Street Tuesday night, walked past a truly stunning Liz Phair and a boyfriend-like companion. She was much, much prettier than I had anticipated — she just had this amazing glow, and a ridiculously hot body. Liz was wearing (or, as I understand the kids call it these days, "was rocking") a pair of Daisy Duke cut-off jeans and stilletto sandals on legs that dropped my jaw about 6 inches into the pavement. She gave a sincere smile of thanks to the hipster chicks who yelped when she went by. Her dude looked like a nice, mellow fella, even though he could easily have copped a "That's right, everyone. . . She's now MY blow job queen" attitude.
8/2 around 5:45 pm on 14th street near Irving place, I saw Cynthia Nixon walking westbound. she was dressed sort of like a cowgirl in a red and white gingham sundress. She is much, much more freckely than she looked on sex and the city.
8/3/2005 at around 10pm Saw Marc Jacobs at the Mercer Hotel restuarant/lobby, by himself eating a fancy personal pan pizza and drinking diet coke from a wine glass. Had his power book with him....After each bite of pizza he would stretch his arms and his torso like an exaggerated yawn, super weird. After he was done eating stretching and typing he went upstairs to his room (which the waitress informed us is his private residence and that he orders room service all the time). He has a nerdy, bouncy walk and is really short.
I saw Zoe Saldana Monday, August 1st on 23rd and 5th making out with a very attractive investment banker-ish looking young man. She is absolutely stunning, but was dressed sort of like a wannabe hipster-ish high school student. Weird.
Saturday 7/30 at about midnight, my boyfriend and I were walking down Dean Street in Brooklyn and I saw Dave Matthews of Dave Matthews fame sitting outside Bar Tabac on Dean & Smith having dinner with two middle-aged male companions. He was smiling a lot and no one seemed to notice him (or maybe Brooklynites are too cool to let on that they loved DMB in high school). He was somewhat more handsome than expected, if definitely balding.
Foxy Brown at Bergdorf's 8/4 sans posse....looking short (even with 4 inch heels on!) and sporting a beehive do....she started screaming at some sales associate while another just rolled her eyes at her... I got the feeling she was dying to be recognized...and ahhh...I don't think that was going to happen...she should have gone 10 blocks down to Diddy's place....
Tim McGraw, smoking a cigarette on the sidewalk of a random street in Midtown. Chatting with the driver of his black SUV. Pretty cute, great ass, wearing a cowboy hat (is that really necessary ALL the time?).
8/4 was at celeb magnet marquee and saw damon dash wearing a white terry cloth floppy hat... he was looking awfully chummy with a woman who wasn't his wife.
Saw SNL's Rachel Dratch on the Fire Island Ferry to The Pines on Friday afternoon, 7/29. She was sitting on the upper deck, hair gone wild in the wind, holding a blue plastic cup which I'm sure contained only cranberry juice. She looked like she was ready for a weekend on the beach with her gay boyfriends — short skirt, sandals, tank top.
Saw Jerry O'Connell and Rebecca Romjin Stamos boutique shopping in nolita today(weds.). the held hands as they strolled leisurely down spring st.
Last night 8/2, I had dinner at Omen in SoHo and as I was walking out, Calvin Klein and some young twenty something was walking in. He walked right past me. He s a little guy. I think I m taller and probably weigh more than him and that s saying something.
Flava Flav making his way up 18th Street between Sixth and Seventh Avenues on Wednesday afternoon, August 3. He had the telltale kitchen clock around his neck (I guess that's not just a stage prop) Some guys stopped and gave him a "Sal-oot!" He returned the greeting. He didn't look at me, even though I smiled at him and had seen him twice at that point.
Thursday 7.28 I saw a not so thin Brittny Gastineau on Madison and 63rd. And she thinks she could model?! Girlfriend's resembling more of her dad's pro football bod than her mom's has-been model body. She looked like any other rich and young New Yorker: chic rags for clothes, an overly tan body, and huge black sunglasses that emphasized her schnoz. And the schnoz isn't too cute.
