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.

So Sad

Heath_ledger_six I just got back from Sundance (more on that later -- have to write a blog entry for work) and am happy to just be sitting on my mini-couch making chili. The simple pleasures life man, enjoy it! Life is so short.

Yesterday I heard the sad news that Heath Ledger passed away. I was at a panel and my phone was blowing up for hours! I can not believe it. I do not have anything deep or new to share about this tragedy. I just feel sad about it.

As many of you know, Brokeback Mountain is one of my all time favorite movies and Heath was just so incredible in it. He was such a talented actor who genuinely seemed like a good guy. I stalked him one day during a house sitting gig in Boerum Hill and he was just so adorable pushing his little daughter around in her stroller.

Truly I feel so sad for his little daughter. What a loss!

I just feel strange about all of the focus on how he died. I understand wanting to know but personally, the focus on the details of whether it was a suicide or an overdose just makes me feel strange. It is not going to bring him back.

I suppose from a societal persepctive, we need to understand this a bit more, especially in light of Brad Renfro's recent death.

I really, really hope the press leaves his family alone. The photos of the paprazzi taking photos of his body going into the ambulance was just icky. Please let these people grieve in peace.

Update: I read this great entry from my fave TV gossip maven, Michael Ausiello. It made me watch Brokeback again too. Man I am crying!

Mabye you are right that it does not matter how he died- but on the other hand I really think we need to worry about our society if a person who had so much talent, looks, brains and a booming career ahead of him as well as beautiful child buckled under the pressure of fame and stardom. I am not saying that if he did commit suicide that it was necessarily his public life but I do think that two actors dieing of a drug overdose in one week does need some close observing. I hope Heath rests in peace and that Little Matilda ledger will grow up knowing that she came from super talented stock. I do agree that as always TMZ is gross!
