It's true! The Yankees player Alex Rodriguez, who like teammate Derek Jeter sucks very much, was seen canoodling with actress Kate Hudson at an underground Manhattan fish restaurant.

This edition of Hollywood PrivacyWatch brings a very special Stallion sighting, an especially social Office star, a veritable galaxy of airport celebrity and other high-wattage fruits of your spying labors. Remember, each and every PrivacyWatch relies on your restless, roving eyes, so keep those tips coming with either "Sightings" or "PrivacyWatch" in the subject line. We appreciate all of your surveillance and couldn't contemplate leaving any of it behind. Among those observed in this installment: Owen Wilson, John Krasinski, Amy Adams, Ryan Phillippe, Neil Patrick Harris, Jared Leto, John Legend, Jonah Hill, Martin Landau, Chloe Sevigny, William Fichtner, Ron Livingston, Mekhi Phifer and more.SATURDAY, SEPT. 20 Went to see The Women (the play, not the movie) in a theater near downtown, when I saw MARTIN LANDAU (looking dapper for 77) talking with JACK STEHLIN from Weeds. I was going to list some Martin Landau credits but imdb has 155 of them and I didn't know what to pick. Loved him in Ed Wood, though. THURSDAY, SEPT. 25 Sept. 25 [At the] Aloud event at the LA Central Library, I spotted ERIC IDLE and a companion enjoying the battling accents of ARIANNA HUFFINGTON and BERNARD HENRI-LEVY. Looked like ALAIN GIRAUD may have been there as well, but I can't be sure. Idle and the Giraud lookalike repaired to Cafe Pinot for a post-talk meal, I expect to be joined by BHL and AH, since they were chatting on stage after the event. FRIDAY, SEPT. 26 It was a transatlantic Dundler-Mifflin meetup on Friday (9/26) at the Magic Castle as JOHN KRASINSKI was hanging with STEPHEN MERCHANT (from The Office UK and Extras). The former looked way hotter and less goofy in person and the latter is a good seven feet tall and was chatting up AIMEE MANN. I was dancing up a storm during the MSTRKRFT show at the Henry Fonda Theater when a guy walks right up and blocks my view. He turns around to face me and starts to mess around with his phone. I’m just about to call him out for being in my ‘personal space bubble’ (the dance floor was pretty empty by that time) when I realize that it’s JARED LETO! He looked a little rough: hair slicked back into a pony tail, scruffy facial hair, black army boots and red flannel shirt tight around his waste. '90s style flashback. I felt kind of sorry for him; Jared seemed a kind of bummed about not getting any celeb-like attention. SATURDAY, SEPT. 27 A day earlier on Sept. 27, we saw RON LIVINGSTON and MEKHI PHIFER at the Shane Mosley-Ricardo Mayorga fight in Carson. They weren't together, dammit; Ron had his usual stubble and a third-row seat, while Mekhi was up on the concourse chatting with former fringe NBA player CHRIS MILLS before the main event. SUNDAY, SEPT. 28 After watching my best friend perform an acoustic set at Level 5, someone commented "Hey, there's Jim from The Office." Sure enough, I turn around and there's JOHN KRASINSKI chatting it up with a very cute redhead and an equally cute blonde. OWEN WILSON at The Other Room during the Abbot Kinney Festival. Fairly inconspicuous. He sat and texted the whole time, probably an hour two. I never saw him look up once. My trashed friend asked him what was going on with all the texting. Owen didn't understand the question. I think he left before the guy was killed outside. I saw that happen, pretty messed up. Saw JONAH HILL at the Abbot Kinney Festival on Sunday the 28th. He was in the line for Sausage Masters but didn't seem to purchase anything. He must be on a diet as he's looking a little more svelte than usual. He was very sweet... Saw BRENDAN SEXTON III at Sabor y Cultura cafe in Hollywood today. It was kind of dorky/endearing, there was a group of middle-aged gamers there and he went right over and was totally into it. He was with a tiny blond who was then forced to observe the gaming as well. I don't think anyone else knew who he was, I was just really into Welcome to the Dollhouse back in the day... It feels like cheating to submit sightings from the A terminal at the Burbank airport, since celebs and plebes alike have to walk down that same narrow hall to exit the sad old barn, but what the hell. On Sunday night around 9 p.m., the following people walked by separately in a 4-minute span, presumably all coming off the late JetBlue flight from JFK: WILLIAM FICHTNER of Prison Break, wearing athletic-type clothes and walking so fast his hairline receded; NEIL PATRICK HARRIS, looking awesome in a black T-shirt and gaily chatting with some dude; CHLOE SEVIGNY, mousy-haired and depressingly dressed like a normal person; and finally AMY ADAMS, toting her own overstuffed Louis Vuitton bag and staring grimly ahead while marching with an entourage of at least two other chicks. No smile, no eye contact, still smoking hot. Just got off AA115 from LHR to JFK. JOHN LEGEND was traveling in first class. A wee bit shorter then I anticipated. Saw everyone’s favorite ex-lazy postman WAYNE KNIGHT at the Vendome Liquors in Toluca Lake on Sunday evening. Would have liked to say hi, but he was busy getting advice on red wine from one of the employees. Oh well. MONDAY, SEPT. 29 RYAN PHILLIPPE with BFF and business partner BRECKIN MEYER at Nate 'n Al's in BH on Saturday morning.

♦ At Betsey Johnson, the front row—Kelly Osbourne, Perry Farrell, Miss J Alexander, Bow Wow, Ugly Betty's Mark Indelicato, Jason Lewis, Mickey Boardman, Lynn Yaeger, and Patrick McMullan—sat at little tables festooned with frosted cupcakes and lollipops for a Peter Pan-themed show in which Liam McMullan played a pirate "throwing gold coins at the audience and pinching the models' exposed bottoms as they walked by." Betsey did her customary finale cartwheel, showed off her granddaughter (left), and went off on vacation with her boyfriend (an Italian decades her junior, of course). [NYO, The Cut, Fashion Wire Daily]

1) One of many Fashion Week kick-off events was the Agyness Deyn-hosted, Thierry Mugler-sponsored bash last night at Christie's, where Chloë Sevigny, Henry Holland, Kelly Osbourne, Peaches Geldof, Yigal Azrouël, Kelly Cutrone, Paul Sevigny, Kate Schelter, Jennifer Creel, Holly Dunlap, Genevieve Jones, Jen Cohen, Dori Cooperman, Ellen Von Unwerth, Padma Lakshmi, and Mary Alice Stephenson previewed the auction house's fall sales of post-war and contemporary art, impressionist and modern art, and fashion.

Big Love (and other, weirder stuff) actress Chloë Sevigny was spotted over the weekend jamming out at a Sonic Youth concert with Yo La Tengo's Ira Kaplan. Some disapproving, fellow VIP section member sent us a sighting complete with name-calling and ass-bashing. And yet, whole worlds away, a mysterious would be Romeo posted a similar sighting on Craigslist, hoping for the bobo queen to give him a call. What different passions you stoke, Chloë. Read from the Sevigny files after the jump.

Sarah Jessica Parker leaving her West Village townhouse in a Prius ... Vanessa Minnillo taking a walk around SoHo with her dog Wookie ... Agyness Deyn strolling through SoHo ... Guy Ritchie walking to the Mandarin Oriental ... Chloe Sevigny eating lunch at Le Pain Quotidien in West Hollywood ... Liev Schreiber and Naomi Watts in Paris ... Anna Wintour checking out the Armani fashion show ... Naomi Campbell and Marcus Elias smooching on the back of a yacht in St. Tropez.

The matron saint of hipsters, the East Village fixture is as well-known for her proudly avant-garde fashion sense as she is for her edgy film roles.

World famous fellator Chloe Sevigny is debuting her fashion line on September 10th at Opening Ceremony, the ur-downtown boutique. Though no garments have been revealed yet, her logo has. Check out the umlaut! Judging from the analogue angularity of it all, we're looking forward to her early Gameboy fall collection. Who can say no to a Tetris camisole and a deconstructed minimalist Donkey Kong shrug?

Oh, look! It's '90s icon and Morrissey enthusiast Chloe Sevigny talking with '90s icon Gavin McInnes about some random girl's too-big glasses, in some sort of Vice Do's and Don'ts mind-fuck. We assume the whole time Gavin's thinking about how he can screw the crap out of her after the segment's over, but she'd have to put on the halter top she wore in Kids first.

• Oh, how we love the Fug girls: "I always have fun with Chloe Sevigny and Sienna Miller. When fashion magazines or insiders revere someone whose choices are completely baffling to me, I tend to enjoy fugging them the most. Because really, what's so brilliant and visionary about wearing sandals tied around the outside of a pair of jeans?" [Zulkey]
  

So what did you do last night? Stupid question, asshole. Just ask the cabbie:

• With injured anchor Bob Woodruff not likely making a full-time return and co-host Elizabeth Vargas' bursting womb, ABC is in need of a talking head for World News Tonight. Thankfully, it looks like Diane Sawyer will be coming to the rescue. She may be the network's fourth choice, but she's first in beating Katie Couric to the punch. [Fox 411]
• Dina Lohan cries to daughter Lindsay about her smoking, preferring that her little cash cow stick to non-carcinogenic substance abuse. [Page Six]
• Chloe Sevigny gets haughty when View co-host Joy Behar asked about her infamous blowjob scene with Vincent Gallo in Brown Bunny. She'll do it on camera, but she won't talk about it on camera — the mark of a true lady. [R&M]
• At a dinner on Saturday night, Ellen Barkin gets the Heimlich from CAA queen Bryan Lourd while Sylvester Stallone watches on. Point: Gays. [Page Six]
• How much is an interview with the French woman who had a face transplant worth? About $500K and a trip to Disneyworld, according to her lawyers. [Lowdown]

In times such as these, where international crises spank us like the hand of God upon our bottoms, it's comforting to see the leaders of public opinion put on a brave face and continue to move forward. Thank you, Chloe, for inspiring us to live our lives.

· "I sat next to Betsey Johnson (designer) at Pastis in the meat packing district. She was with two obvious sycophants who were drooling all over her, despite the fact that she looked beyond horrid in a multicolored coat that looked like a leprechaun had vomited on it. She had terrible hair with nylon-looking extensions and black raccoon eye makeup. Didn't smell great either."
· "russell simmons on the jfk A train shuttle with his wife and kids—just flew jet blue to jfk yesterday... i jumped on the shuttle to the A train and accidentally got off at the wrong stop in the parking lot. i peered back into the crowded shuttle bus and asked the dude in the black suit, backwards yankee cap standing with his wife and kid if this was the stop — he told me no, it's the next one. i looked him in the eye and asked if he was russell — and he affirmatively nodded. it was him. and no, i didn't hound him further."
· "saw chloe sevigny walking by my gallery (spring betw eliz. and bowery) yesterday looking stoned and cold. jim jarmusch walks by almost every day too."
· "Christy Turlington at Peter Lugers clearly not eating enough because she didn't have to waddle out like the rest of us."
· "If you were Greek, and I said the name Anna Vissi, you would become rapt, speaking in whispers. Think Madonna, but in a smaller pond. If you were Greek, and I told you that I had brushed by Anna Vissi last night at a midtown acting school, where she was watching her daughter perform, you might ask to smell and feel the sweater that had touched her. But you're not Greek, so you may not care. (The daughter gave a self-indulgent performance, by the way)"
