Why is there no ILX celebrity sighting thread?

I was dancing with Karen O'Leary to Polynesian electro on Saturday night. Niche spots r me.

Oooh, Tennant and Lowe, interesting!

Is Karen O'Leary a famous person?

Mine was talking to Billy Bragg and finding he was, disappointingly given the abuse I've given him over the years, quite a nice bloke.

... on Saturday.

Karen O'Leary is a Kiwi actress who is in What We Do In The Shadows and currently starring in the spinoff TV show Wellington Paranormal.

i.e famous enough for me to have been aware of her back in Britain and enough to consider her a celeb now I'm in NZ.

At least Mackenzie Crook level if that helps.

Oh, I had no idea you were in NZ these days!

Only for the summer/winter depending on your perspective. (Which is why I guess it's a celeb thing, coming from outside.)

and currently starring in the spinoff TV show Wellington Paranormal.

well i guess i gotta look up this spinoff show! (is it good?)

Humour is a bit more Wellington-centic but it's pretty funny.

Same set up as their roles in the film, Minogue and O'Leary are oblivious to what's going on around them.

I guess they saved the best car for last

Ooh, that's a good one! I had a good one too.

Sat across from Tina Fey and her at the ferry dock over to fire island a couple weeks back. I had a minor freak out and we def had a moment where she realized I recognized her and the look on her face was "oh please don't talk to me" so I didn't. I REALLY WANTED TO THOUGH.

thats my secondary school experience with women in a nutshell tbh

TINA FEY THO

maybe that look was actually "I hope she talks to me"

Bez buying petrol in Waitrose Abergavenny.

Beautiful.

did he have a car with him or was he just buying a bucket of petrol to huff

He's driving a nice Merc these days.

Alan Davies in my local, I'm hoping he's just been to see Arsenal get humped by Man Utd, the twat.

bit late now but i walked by Oscar Isaac in Tate Britain in September, in a room with some sculptures, he was looking at one by Anthony Caro

On the bus to work today, listening to a track by Kleenex called "Madness", bus draws up outside Caledonian Road tube, I glance out the window and standing in front of me, waiting to cross the road, is Suggs.

Funnily enough, we were driving past Palmer Park in Reading, a bloke comes out of a house and gets in his car, I quip to my wife "That Alan Davies has let himself go, ...." then I realise it actually is him.

I've done likewise 'check out that twat, thinks he's Bono'.... oops
