· Tues 1/17: Just finished devouring two "Charlize Tacos" (they're cleaner and more delicious than they sound, promise) at Hamasaku where celebs are as raw and plentiful as the slabs of fish. Looked over at the sushi bar and had the meta experience of staring at Charlize Theron in the flesh as Stuart Townsend whispered sweet nothings into her ear. She looked hot (normal blond hot, no "North Country" or "Monster" Charlize in sight). They were very nice to two not so hot girls celebrating a birthday, and even did a shot of sake with them. Tuesday 1/24: Geoffrey Rush eating lunch outside of Il Pastaio in Beverly Hills with some lawer/friend looking dude.

· From the Paramount Lot: Just walking back from the exec car park and crossed paths with a tiny girl with a bobble-head full of short, brushy hair. I realized it was none other than Princess Padme Portman and smiled non-commital "oh yeah, it's you" way. She returned a "yeah but don't talk to me" smile and then got in a chauffered ginormous black SUV.

· (1/21) On Saturday I went to Sunset 5 (was empty - thank you Sundance) with a friend to see a movie. After the movie we walked to the Chateau for a late afternoon drink (is that bad?) and sat in the garden. Just after we ordered I looked up to see JUDE LAW. He is thin, taller than I expected, stood with his shoulders hunched over, wore a black jacket, and had his hair in the 'looks greasy, but it's not' look.' My friend says he looked freshly showered. He did have that ruddy check thing going. Jude lingered by our table, deciding where to sit with his friend, a tall un-famous guy who wore a beanie (yes, a beanie). I tried to see what Jude was drinking once they were seated, but from the chin down he was obscured by a row of hedges. The sighting was a pleasant surprise, and got us betting on how much longer he'll be with Sienna. I say a year, my friend says nine months.

· 1.19 Wilmer how-ever you say his name...having dinner at Dolce with 2 "normal" looking girls..very unassuming
1.20 Marni on Little Melrose...Reese Witherspoon all post Globes glowing...picking up literally every piece of clothing in the store..very "serene" in a prissy, southern kind of way. She sort of floats around with her head slightly cocked up in the air, actually looking a bit daft.. very late 1.20 Chateau..a surprisingly beautiful Rebecca DeMornay leaving a private party in one of the cottages
1.21 Chateau Marmont-patio, Philip Seymour Hoffman having breakfast with his adorable and very well-mannered son

· Went to the El Rey on Friday to catch the Ringside show. Both Jessica and Ashlee Simpson were there with Eva Mendes and some other friends. Jessica wore the ugliest red hat I've ever seen and was smoking a "strange little herbal cigarette" with a table of friends. Kirsten Dunst was there in a black hat that would have seemed ridiculous had Jessica not shown up. Then I saw Fred Durst (who was wearing what appeared to be a holiday sweater his grandma must have picked out for him) chatting up Michelle Trachtenberg. Joaquin Phoenix was spotted outside in the smoking area.

· Ashlee Simpson trying unsuccessfully to hit on Joaquin Phoenix at the She Wants Revenge show at the El Rey.

· Today, January 26th, 2006, I had the pleasure of having lunch at Spago Beverly Hills. What was more pleasureful was watching Warren Beatty enjoy a several course meal with an unidentified man, all the while keeping his sunglasses on (I mean, DUH, what could be more incognito?). My lunch got all the more interesting when Keanu Reeves strolled in with an identified blonde. Didn't look like a romantic date at all, but a pleasure nonetheless.

· Having brunch at the way-over 4 Seasons Los Angeles at Beverly Hills... Marky -Mark himself, sweet sweet with his tiny little daughter; and heading up a group of the worst plastic surgery ever, none other than surreal life ex musician demi celebrity Vince Neil.

· i was having dinner on the patio of the ivy weds night— when suddenly there was a large contingent of paparazzi amassed at the entrance... waiting for some spectacular exit i assumed. as i turned and looked inside— i saw jessica simpson, her father, and several other dinner companions preparing to exit. her father exited 1st and started the waiting black range rover— jessica followed behind, head down, and jumped in for a speedy exit. the whole thing was very uneventful and quick.... about 5 seconds. i dont know what was sadder.... the paparazzi scrounging for some scrap of a photo, or the poor girl with great hair, and a phalanx of rabid, camera wielding dingos tracking her every mundane move. ( and fyi— the pecan square with choc sauce and ice cream was far more exciting!!!)

· (1/28) kiefer sutherland walking down vermont near hollywood blvd with a friend. he was carrying a man-purse. go kiefer.

· Saturday afternoon 1/21, the "Hollywood Hand Wash" at the intersection of Vermont & Hollywood Blvd.: saw Jack Bauer himself, Kiefer Sutherland, getting his ride detailed. Not sure what nefarious terrorist activities are afoot at the car wash but I felt safer all the same. Seemed like a nice guy, was chatting with the employees & was perfectly normal and low-key (no drunken X-mas tree takedowns this day). And yes, he seemed shorter and slighter than he appears on screen. The funniest thing were the civillians gawking
in the waiting area. BTW, his ride was a beautifully restored 60s era muscle car.

· Went to the John Doe/Grant Lee Phillips show last night (1/26) at Largo. It was a great show. Jon Brion even joined them on stage for a bit. When John Doe left the stage to watch for a bit I saw him wander to a table in the corner near the entrance. Who was hangin out there: Viggo Mortensen. He was haning out with a couple other people enjoying the show.

· In-laws in town this weekend were treated to three sublime star sightings that made the flight from Boston worthwhile: 1) Jon Voight at Century City mall on Saturday afternoon, 1/28; 2) Diddy at the Beverly Hills Hotel, who said "hey" when my father-in-law cheerfully greeted him while waiting for the elevator, Saturday 12/28; and 3) Mary Louise Parker, also at the BHH, Sunday 1/29, being escorted to her room by a porter. She lugged her own pint-sized wheelie suitcase. Baby William Atticus was nowhere in sight. She was smiling and looked amazing even with unkempt locks. I think they sell hairbrushes in the hotel gift shop, in case she reads this.

· Spotted Tobey Maguire at the Troubador on Friday, January 20th. He was sitting in the "VIP/Friends of the Band section" for the Elected show.. He looked neither fat, nor jowly as he has been accused of lately. Saw two girls from The Donnas with a skinny hipster boy at El Conquistador on Sunset on Friday, January 27th. Saw Shannon Lucio who played Lindsay on season 2 of The O.C. at Solar de Cahuenga restaurant on Sunday, January 29.

· - Monday 1/23, lunchtime, Adrien Brody and itsy bitsy girlfriend at the mall formerly known as Century City. He was shorter than expected and rocking the derelicte. She looked like she'd wandered off the set of the "Hit Me Baby One More Time" video in a schoolgirl micro kilt and combat boots. - Saturday, 1/21, 10pm, Kate Mantilini, Breckin Meyer + gorgeous wife + entourage.

· 1-23: Forget Park Ave. or Main St. Park City, the real hub for stars this past weekend was none other than (the mediocre) Niko Niko Sushi on Vermont Ave. in Los Feliz. Right after Mick Fleetwood walked out in ponytail, tapered jeans but alas now pirate shirt, in came Rose McGowan who went to wait a rather un-celebrity-like length of time (twenty minutes?) for take-out disco rolls or whatever. All this before 6pm on Sunday.

· oday I had an awesome celeb sighting at Runyan - MELANIE GRIFFITH! To put it one word: scary. Her face looked like it was stapled on. Poor thing, she used to be really cute back in the 80's. The bags under her eyes look like they needed their own luggage cart. But the saddest part was she was terrifyingly thin. And not in some quasi-enviable supermodel kind of way. She looked ill. And she was shuffling. Like an old lady with arthritis. I looked MG up on IMDB, says she's only 49. So, fine, even if that means 53, she was walking like someone who's 70 and broken her hip once or twice. I have to assume it's because of how thin she is, she's like stiff and brittle or something. She was with some daughter of hers. Not Miss Golden Globes, a younger one, around age 10. They had a dog with them but I couldn't tell you what type, I was riveted by Melanie's crumbling visage.

· 1-24: Not everyone is at Sundance. Today while driving to CAA, I saw Matthew Perry pass by in a big black Mercedes S500 (V12 engine). Then while in the lobby of CAA, I saw Jamie Kennedy, apparently there meeting his agent. And finally, while driving to Rocket Video, I saw Mike White and a male "companion" walking by Pink's Hot Dogs. Not bad for a days work.

· a two-degrees of "Friends" moment: saw David Schwimmer and ex-"Head Case" Adam Goldberg (who, coincidentally, was also Chandler's roommate for about two episodes) at Hungry Cat last night... although they weren't together. i can't believe i was able to connect those dots so easily. please shoot me.

· On Friday, January 27, around 1 p.m., I saw Ron Livingston (Office Space, Sex and the City) waiting for a table at Mishima, formerly one of my favorite restaurants, now upgraded to my number-one favorite restaurant. He was alone and handsome. I told my friend that I had seen a photo of Ron's fiancee and that she wasn't worthy of him—not realizing that he had been seated right behind us. As my friend and I were leaving, he gave us the stink eye. I'm sorry, Ron! I was paying you a compliment, but I shouldn't have done it at the expense of your lady.

· I definitely saw Jermaine Jackson today in Beverly Hills with a woman (his wife?) with big hair and tons of make up on. His hair looks like he shapes it in a cone. Earlier almost got run over by Queen Latifah turning into the 4 Seasons driveway in her big orange Hummer. She was on the phone of course.

· (1/24) At grace tonight: Bruce vilanch, Fred crumbs savage, GARTH ANCIER

· walked into the foundation room at house of blues during the disturbed show (i had to be there for work, i swear to god) and who was there but joe friday himself, dan aykroyd. homeboy was huge. not farley huge, but blues brothers was a long time ago. beautiful blonde on his arm. also saw macaulay culkin at gelson's in west hollywood. looked pretty good. just pushing a cart around with a lady friend. good times.

· While working out at the Fit Factory this morning I saw Xenu struggling to flat-press a bar loaded with 22 tons pounds of bullshit. Good thing true believer Jenna Elfman was their to step in and offer an "assist". Dude got ten reps! Translation into non-smartass-Defamer-tipster-English: I saw Jenna Elfman at the Fit Factory working out (and looking quite lovely, I might add) this morning. Thanks.

· 1/26 Sunset 5...Penny Marshall in front of Buzz Coffee hacking into a cell phone (with cigarette in hand)...what a voice....1/27 Chinatown...inside the very cool shop "Realm" in Chung King Road vicinity...Willie Garson...the actor who played Carrie's gay friend Stanford....what's up with my c-list sightings? When am I going to stand in line at Fred Segal with Brad Pitt?

· 1-24: Just saw ryan reynolds sans alanis having sushi in downtown la's japanese village.

· (1/30) chris noth examined brie and other cheeses at the Gelson's on santa monica in west hollywood on
midafternoon monday. he was in the company of an unidentified female.

· I saw 80's star Elizabeth Perkins having dinner at Cobras and Matadors on Beverly on Saturday night (1/21). She's still got that cute-as-a-button look and I wanted to just throw my arms around her in a Big hug.

· This one was random...Went to "Space is the Place"- at World on Wheels in the "Almost, actually yeah Pretty Ghetto" Saturday night (1/28). Hipsters on roller skates! Anways, the place was 5x more crowded than I have ever seen it. They let a huge group of skinny girls with good skin in without paying, birthday gear in hand. Turns out the Birthday Girl was the offspring of Ted Danson and/or Mary Steenburgen. Ted looked quite dashing, silver hair and a suit jacket. Mary looks good too...actually they are super cute together. They held court in a corner and watched the rink...never saw them skating...too bad. Their kid sure has alot of friends, it was too crowded in the rink, the bar was packed (lucky i brought a flask) and there were too many people around for me to smoke out.

· My coworker and I just spotted Long Duk Dong of Sixteen Candles fame sitting on a bench on Santa Monica's 3rd Street Promenade, mere seconds before walking by Pacey, of Dawson's Creek fame. I believe no pleasantries were exchanged between the two, but, for the life of me, I couldn't remember either of these guy's real names without resorting to IMDB. (Gedde Watanabe and Joshua Jackson, respectively.)

· SNL also-ran Tim Meadows and a cute little actressy thing at the Galley in SM last night (1/20). They came in after us but were seated first which for a second made me think about suicide-bombing the place rather than deal with the fact that Tim Meadows table-checked me at a dumpy nautical-themed restaurant. But we were seated a few seconds later so all's good. Couldn't tell if he ordered Courvoisier.

· Saw Tim Meadows last night (1/21) at Father's Office on Montana, munching on a burger with a couple of ladies and wearing a jaunty cap. I thought anyone who was ever involved with SNL never leaves NYC, but there you go.

· Having early lunch at Ari-YA (formerly Murakami, otherwise known as Lesbian Sushi, or as I like to refer to it "Fishy fish"), Laura San Giacomo. Or Should I say Laura SanGia-fucking-como (get it, like Cinder-fucking-rella... from Pretty Woman... getit...?)

· Saw David Spade upstairs at Morels in the Grove on Saturday night, wearing a red baseball cap and red sweatshirt under camel jacket. He appeared to be calmly discussing something concerning his cell phone (reception, mayhaps?) with the hostess, before he — gasp! — took his call outside. After politely saying "excuse me" to my friend and me as he brushed past us on the stairs! I was so stunned by this perfectly civilized celeb behavior that I had to down two Kirs in rapid succession to get my bearings again.

· I saw Paula Abdul and a guy who I assume was her boyfriend at Burbank Airport last Friday (1/20) . She was wearing a black jacket and jeans, the guy was wearing jeans and a redish shirt. He is much taller than Paula and HOT. They were holding hands and kissing while they waited to board the plane to Las Vegas. A couple fans recognized her and asked her to take a picture with them, she was very sweet and took a few pictures.

· My suspicions that 2006 is the year for Nu-Image and Millennium Films to break free from the bottom of the Tinseltown studio caste system have been confirmed: I just saw Dolph Lundgren "driving on" to Nu-Image and Millennium Films' production facility, through the world famous "Wilshire gates," underneath the billboard advertising the sure fire hit "Edison" starring Justin Timberlake and Academy Award winners Morgan Freeman and Kevin Spacey. Still reeling from his terrifying portrayal of cold war steroid machine Ivan Drago in "Rocky IV," I felt compelled to challenge him to a duel for the crime of killing Apollo Creed.

· 01/25 10am in front of Maxfield, Victor Garber in his BMW. 01/30 1pm Le Pain Quotidien/Studio City (don't ask) -Gabrielle Carteris/90210, and separately, unfortunately, Moon Unit Zappa. Gabrielle has the suburban mom thing going, but Moon looks the worst-dirty, pockmarked and very wide in the bum. It seriously made me a little ill-it was like Pigpen, I wondered what germs were wafting in her wake.

· Saw Scott Ian of Anthrax at Amoeba Music on Monday afternoon (January 23). He looks just like he does on all those talking-head shows on VH1: shaved head, hooded sweatshirt, creepy pointed beard. Also, the dude is short; I'm 5'1", so everyone seems tall in comparison, but not Scott Ian! He's clearly Napoleonic in stature. I was leaving as he came in, so I'm not sure what he bought—the new Lindsay Lohan, perhaps?

· saw lem from "the shield" (kenny johnson) at palms thai last night. was with his wife (she had a big rock) and what seemed to be his really cute, suburban-looking parents. my boyfriend and i are HUGE shield fans, so i actually contemplated approaching and gushing, but decided not to interrupt the family gathering. he seemed super down to earth, his wife was pretty but looked low-maintenance, and the whole group was quiet and unassuming (not that i would've been able to hear anything over thai elvis' blasting performance, actually). he looked exactly as he does on the show and was wearing the same "Italia" jacket as he's wearing in IMDB's pictures of 'the shield' season premiere. the significance of this i will not overanalyze. everybody's got a favorite jacket, right?

· I was at the Kings v. Ducks game this Saturday when my friend said "look at that guy at the end of our row, I swear he's a porn star." Surprised she would recognize a porn star in public, I looked over and saw it was actually Tori Spelling and her greasy looking new fiancee. I was glad I wasn't sitting next to him, because I'm not sure if I'm current on my shots.

· 1-24: Spotted Latoya Jackson at Xi’an in Beverly Hills. Had lunch with some guy, didn’t look like they were heavy into conversation, and despite having a miniscule nose a la her brother, she was actually very understated and looked pretty normal.

· Angelyne was being paraded around like the world's most avant-guarde living art installation at the LA Art Show this weekend at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium. We followed her out to the parking lot. One in our party kindly asked for her photo and Angelyne, being from another planet (possibly Venus), let her oily-haired fake-oh-Sopranos-cast-member-lookin' husband answer with a curt NO. We proceed to take her photo anyway (screw politeness, the woman is not. of. this. earth.) while Angelyne hid behind a classy pink fan and laid on her horn until we drifted away. Hey crazy lady, you're no Brangelina, let some fools take your photo, eh? Remind the world that you exist, for the love of everything!
