Sometimes I don't know either. Like, who the fuck is David J?

I think he's Steve J's brother?

Gilbert and George, artists, at Notting Hill Gate on Saturday afternoon.

justin long at a local gourmet joint. i was waiting outside for my food and he came out and said hi to me before i even recognized him. guess he was anticipating me saying hi to him and wanted to get it over with? or he's just a friendly dude.

who the fuck is justin long

oohhh ok i am smitten

A likable, boyish-looking actor with thick eyebrows and a friendly smile, Justin Long is a native of Connecticut.

he is friendly!

so far this week: Giovanni ribisi, Taylor negron and the girl from the nanny and californication

last week: crispin glover, Michael cera, Michael angarano (sp?), clu gulager

Although I've lived in this neighbourhood for almost three years, the past two weeks have offered me my first hungover-and-going-for-coffee-in-sweatpants sightings of Rupert Everett, who lives around the corner. First time I was sitting with a bunch of gay friends on a corner table outside the pub, and he stared at us (one of them was a well-known gay journalist) while passing - three times - and the second was last Saturday when I was getting on the Tube at Holborn. It was 8am, so somebody getting out to go home had clearly ridden the Slut Express and picked up a newspaper on the way.

keanu reeves at the poquito mas in studio city, lookin' scraggly

the one on cahuenga?

Like it when a thread comes full circle.

yep. right by my workplace

haha jaymc i didn't even notice that!

this morning: kinsey from mad men, zack de la rocha

together?

separate but very near. kinsey was crossing the street by my bank while looking shifty eyed and a little disturbed by people recognizing him (not me). zack de la rocha was getting into his car in front of a posh coffee place.

Matthew Modine walking near the Bowery w/ a friend

Thurston Moore (he counts?) at the Tuli Kupferberg film tribute

It's questionable to you if Thurston Moore counts but Matthew Modine is a given?

This summer, while having drinks with Alex in NYC in NYC, Courtney Love staggered out of a building across the street and got into a town car parked five feet from our outdoor table. Besides a lot of nose wiping with the back of her hand she looked pretty together.

what I meant is seeing Thurston in NYC is pretty easy if you travel in the same cultural orbit.

oh yeah, i've seen members of sy so often in new york that i don't even count it as a sighting anymore. they're part of the furniture.

i suppose mad men sightings in los angeles are the same way now! pete campbell was eating at the same restaurant where we met up for a brunch fap on saturday.

Alec Baldwin today on Madison Ave in the 50s. He was sort of forcefully rushing his way into a building and getting annoyed with people. He had a very impressive presence, I must say.

Quite a while ago, but still - was at the Tame Impala approx a month ago here in Denver and Wayne's nephews band Stardeath & The White Dwarfs is supposed to play: well, they don't and instead we get a fairly bland local band that seemed to view this as their time to shine to the biggest audience they ever were going to get and thus their set-list took for fucking ever.

Anyways, dude comes up behind me and it's Wayne Coyne - I didn't even need a double take, it was just *him*, with the hair and the scarf and the suit which I didn't really think he wore in ~casual lyfe~. I wanted to shake his hand but he was getting a video of the concert and generally, as I saw him later during the night, was somewhat glad I hadn't as the hand-shakes he was being asked for seemed incredibly brief and seemed to contribute mostly to annoying him.

I've always despised the way people would give you every detail leading up to celebrity sighting in their recounts done in their heads, so I'm a little shocked I just did it. I didn't even warrant seeing Wayne Coyne as a facebook status update - I basically wanted to reserve it for my friends whom liked the band (not many).

Ron Jeremy, walking out of the elevator as I was walking in with my boss and coworkers.

that reminds me, i was on a bus in chatsworth a few weeks ago and overheard a conversation between two male porn actors, talking about chicks they knew that they wanted to bang (or had already banged).

"Chatsworth Confessions," filled with scenes like what you saw, would be the most depressingly smutty Showtime show ever.

haha, i have to admit I was a bit off-put by reading "on a bus in chatsworth" on the celebrity sighting thread.

i wouldn't have mentioned it at all, but ya know, the ron jeremy sighting.

thats heartening that porn bros still care abt banging chix

minnie driver & eric stoltz at the playground where I brought my kids. they weren't together and didn't even seem to acknowledge each other (poor celeb etiquette to do so?)

I was introduced to Johanna Went a week or so ago. She has an installation at a gallery (based on Grey Gardens) and one of her friends there couldn't remember the directors' name and when I said Maysles she said "She's here do you want to meet her?" All I said to her was "I saw you perform at the Hong Kong Cafe in 79 or 80."

i think serena williams was standing behind me in the security line in the aspen airport. i resisted the urge to swoon (and of course, my wife rolled her eyes at me).

angelyne, in burbank!

maggie gyllenhaal at the hollywood farmers market yesterday

i saw jake at a restaurant downtown about a month ago

bill pullman at trader joe's, looking a bit unkempt

gary shteyngart outside early girl eatery in asheville nc

bf left me a message that he saw 'the asian dude from lost'. jealous. that guy was hot!

Jimmy Page! Yesterday, waiting in line at a cash machine just round from Goodge Street Station, noticed him checking out a girl who passed him, same old Jimmy, eh?

only caught a glimpse, but i thought i saw adam scott walking past the coffee bean at chandler/lankershim in north hollywood. parks and recreation shoots on location here sometimes.
