    Take Action

    Celebrity Sightings

    • Christina Applegate and Chole Sevigny
      at the BWE 100th episode party. They are both so blonde. That color blonde that does not exist in real life but only with chemical enhancement. They're beautiful though.
    • Melba Moore
      in the airport in Nairobi, Kenya! We smiled at each other over Nescafe (aka coffee).
    • Parker Posey
      at Murray's Bagels. She looked really punk rock.
    • Jessica Lange and Sam Shephard
      at A History of Violence at Cinema Village. They were so cute and followed us everywhere from the movies to Cedar Tavern and back to the movies. They probably thought we were following them.
    • Nicole Ari Parker and Boris Kodjoe
      pushing their baby down 13th Street. I was having a meeting at Cosi around the corner from my overcrowded office. I looked out the window and there they were. They stopped in front of my window and were doing the, who should take the baby conversation. I was trying to listen to the person talking to me but I could not and she was not the type of person who would understand my distraction by these celebs. They are both really attractive but almost too much so. His sneakers were new. His jeans were new. It was weird. I like imperfection.
    • Joshua Redman
      running on 18th Street. I realized that I've seen him many times before and just did not realize it. He was smaller than I thought he's be but I guess most people are.
    • Patti Smith
      which was not a big deal to me but my friend Marina apparently sees her all the time. This was her fourth sighting. I said she should say something like, "I see you everywhere. We should hang out." Marina wouldn't take the bait.
    • Leonardo DiCaprio
      with Isha on our way to the PATH station on 9th Street and 6th Ave. He is very tall but as my friend says, one cheeseburger away from being fat. His bodyguard "subtely" was wearing a jogging suit next to him. I guess they exercise together. He wasn't so hot to me but another girl flipped out when she saw him so what do I know.
    • Sam Rockwell and Liev Schreiber
      on New Year's Eve but you gotta buy me a few drinks to hear that story.
    • John Turturro
      in Union Square looking tall and handsome. I’ve always had a strange little crush on him.

    "You Can't Be Me I'm A Rock Star"

    video_lapdancelive.jpg

    My friend, Sharon always laughs at my love of arrogant men and I want to say she's wrong but ... I just love men with an inflated sense of themselves. (Oh, it will be the death of me!) This explains my love for the lovely (and quite skinny) Pharrell.

    On Thursday, I went to see N*E*R*D and The Black Eyed Peas. (Spymob, N*E*R*D's back up band performed a few songs but Sweetback they ain't.) The show was fantastic!!!!! I think The Black Eyes Peas are a bit too cumbayah for me but they put on a great show. They take me back to the glorious days of b-boys that I miss so much. "Hey Mama" was their best song. And, they urged people to go out and vote. There's something about politically minded musicians that gets me everytime. I am not 100% sure how I feel about the new girl. I don't want to hate but she kind of gets on my nerves and I can't really see what she's doing there. I mean, I know every hip hop band needs a hot girl but ... I gotta think about her.

    At first, I was only kind of into N*E*R*D*. Lauren and I were in search of the Asian guy but Sandy reminded us that Chad doesn't tour. (He’s married and has kiddies. What a guy!) It took a moment to get over that. But once "Rock Star" came on, I couldn't resist screaming, "I Love You Pharrell!" right along with the legions of young girls in the audience.

    The thing that made me laugh was how many times Pharrell kept saying, "Thanks for supporting underground music!" OK. Vogue just did a spread on Pharrell and his new clothing line. Underground he ain't! This band may not be selling millions of records but when you can get Jay-Z to actually come and perform his solo at a small venue like Roseland, I think you're kind of big time.
