Apparently Jill Hennessy of Law and Order and Crossing Jordan fame is the twin sister of Jacqueline Hennessy, who works at the same TV station I am currently working at. They were both in the hallway outside my Les Nessman-style office today, laughing and dancing with their young children.

Later, I saw a red winged blackbird.

Charles Kennedy (leader of the Liberal Democrats) getting out of a posh BMW at Charing Cross station this morning, with a couple of aides. As he headed towards the station, one of them gave him a friendly "go get'em tiger" pat on the shoulder.

I love Charles Kennedy.

David "Doll" Johansen in NYC's Riverside Park yesterday afternoon. A tottering stick figure in shades & basic black, he looked like a glam vampire reluctantly venturing forth into the harsh light of day.

Minty drinks in the pub by my house and Bernard Butler often seen in Budgens.

Well, new cover stars of the Wire and all that. You'd have thought they'd be hanging out on Derek Bailey's yacht already.

Andre 3000 came into my day job about a month ago to buy an updater for some music software. Had one of those "wait, that guy looks exactly like..." moments until he spoke, at which point I realized "Oh, that Is him".
Nice guy, very soft spoken, and he was wearing a Toronto Maple Leafs toque!

Anna, I saw Jason Donovan this morning, in a spookily quiet Charing Cross station. He was giving an autograph to a policewoman. He looked happy and healthy.

Virginia Madsen, at the Beat Kitchen in Chicago last Tuesday. She was milling about in the crowd after seeing some female solo act, while I set up for a variety show I was hosting afterwards.

I saw Tom Hollander on his bike at May Morning (non Oxford people.. it's the one day in the year when students stay up all night, then go and watch Magdalen college choir sing, and welcome in the spring/summer) this morning.

Chicago Sun-Times music critic, author of several terrible music books, and ILM arch-enemy Jim DeRogatis at Barnes & Noble yesterday. He was browsing through the photography and craft books but mainly it seemed like he was waiting for someone else.

― n/a (Nick A.), Monday, 2 May 2005 15:53 (twenty-one years ago)

I saw a shitload of celebrities at the GLAAD media awards the other night: marcia cross, felicity huffman, john stamos, brendan frasier, lisa minelli, jennifer coolige, mandy moore(!), britney murphy, the queer eye dudes, jason alexander, etc etc.

I thought I saw Janet Dibley (played Nicholas Lyndhurst's wife in crap sitcom The Two of Us, also played an alcoholic bafflingly obsessed with Phil Mitchell in EastEnders) in the tea room at Alnwick Castle this weekend.

Just once, I am going to see someone interesting. I see various members of Belle and Sebastian from time to time, but that isn't that random, usually.

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 2 May 2005 19:29 (twenty-one years ago)

I had my first sleb spotting today! Though he did have to be pointed out several times before I recognised him. Given that I officially cannot recognise Jarvis Cocker ie the most striking-looking man ever when he is standing in front of me, I think the chances of my adding to this sleb spot are minimal.

He was at London Bridge station with his small daughter looking very harassed and weary. He is in the unfortunate situation of both having a receding hairline and needing a haircut.

Yesterday afternoon walking down Gray's Inn Road: Michael Portillo in fuchsia Ralph Lauren shirt.

Before the Ornette Coleman show at the Barbican yesterday there was a guy someone assured me was Jamie Cullen. During the interval I realised I was facing Paul Morley, and was very tempted towards the hopeless fanboy thing, but resisted.

I watched the Arsenal v West Brom match yesterday in the same pub as Fran Jeffers. He is shorter than he looks on telly. And uglier.
