Celebrity Sighting of the Week - CeCe Peniston

So funny - CeCe Peniston is meeting with my boss right now. She seems cool - but who doesn't love this little ditty.

Finally - CeCe Peniston

Celebs Watching Holly

So tonight Adrian Grenier was standing next to me after the Holly Miranda show, it seems that he is friends with Holly's girlfriend. He was hot, about 5'10 and with a hot blonde model. He is probably the last Entourage person I would want to see - but I know a few people out there love him.

Celebrity Spotting

Today I saw Jane Lynch walking out of the Barnes & Noble in Studio City. For those of y'all that don't recognize, Jane Lynch is in most of the Christopher Guest movies (Best in Show, A Mighty Wind) and about 1000 other things. She is really funny. She was very tall and very Jane Lynch-y.

Roommate Update: The day after posting my rant, I wrote a note asking her to remove the trash. 3 days later, trash, cutting board, dishes - all done. And on the 3rd day - she has risen. Hallelujah.

Celebrity Sighting

There seems to be a theme for my celebrity sightings this month. Jonathan Bennett had a meeting with my boss today. He was Aaron Samuels in Mean Girls. Hopefully I can collect all of the Mean Girls actor sightings. Anyway, he was very friendly, very hot and a lot taller than I expected. God, I love these Mean Girls sightings.

Celebrity Sighting

This week's celebrity sighting is brought to you by the psychiatrists in my building.
As I was walking out of my office, Lizzy Caplan was walking out of a psychiatrist's office. Incidentally, the same one I saw Sarah Silverman go to. I love Lizzy Caplan, however I had no idea what her name was because I only know her as Janis Ian from Mean Girls. If you don't know her from that she was also in True Blood and in a new show that is starting soon I think. It looks good. But I was pretty excited since Mean Girls is one of my faves. She looked at me and smiled and I said - "You smell like a baby prostitute". Just kidding I didn't say that. I didn't say anything actually, I just smiled back. Oh for those who don't have lines memorized from Mean Girls, the baby prostitute line comes from the movie.

In honor of this sighting I give you "Built This Way" that is in the movie. I love this song. Ironically it's written/sung by Lindsey's gf Sam Ronson. I wonder if that's how they met back in 2004.

The Tale of Despereaux Red Carpet

On Friday I got an email from one of my catering companies asking if I wanted to work a movie premier on Sunday. I knew I couldn't because of my foot, but wondered what movie it was. It turns out that it was the new Emma Watson movie where she does the voice of the little girl. Now, like a 14 year old girl, I am obsessed with Harry Potter and the actors. Especially Dan and Emma. Unlike a 14 year old girl, I am almost 30, and that makes me more of a molester. So I was so bummed to miss it. Then later I thought hmmm maybe I will just go to the red carpet and see if I can see anything.

So on Sunday I rode over to the Arclight Hollywood, which is a super nice theater. It has a restaurant and bar and you can drink in some theaters. It was open to the public for the other movies they were playing. So you had to walk over the red carpet to get to the theater. There was this whole roped off section for fans and I just kind of walked pass security and hung around with the people on the red carpet who actually had tickets to the premier and nobody said anything to me.

So after awhile Buster from Arrested Development passed. Nobody had any idea who he was. Which is unfortunate considering that is one of the greatest comedies of all time. Then Emma came out and all the fans started screaming for her and she went over and signed stuff. The she went in to the theater lobby and stayed there until she signed something for everyone who wanted it and got pictures with everyone. She kept on saying "Anyone else?" She was really sweet and super cute and super skinny. So me and the 5 years olds were able to meet her and get her autograph. So I was excited, clearly.








After that I went back to the red carpet and Tracy Ullman came out and she went over and signed stuff for people.

Then Matthew Broderick (no SJP) & Dustin Hoffman walked out and they were super short and didn't stop for any fans. Matthew Broderick looks almost as old as Dustin in this picture.



Then Sigourney Weaver came out and she didn't stop for anyone either. Some guy screamed, as if he were burning "Please Sigourney, we've been waiting for hours". She just walked by. It was pretty funny.



I think alot of the people behind the rope were pro autograph hunters though. But there were some kids and parents and stuff too.

So the moral of the story is - the brits are really nice and american actors suck. Just kidding. I can't really judge based off of that.

But all in all it was a pretty cool day, sneaking on a red carpet, seeing one of my fave celebs and then going home and sleeping.

My Past Few Weeks of Non Blogging

Since I have been slacking with posts I will do a quick picture summary of my past few weeks.

World Champions!!!!!! The Shack. Philly bar in Santa Monica.


Celebrating Franklin Style


ROAR! Cat Hands!


"Excellent"


A Touch of Home.


Halloween Party at one of my neighbors. They had a gift exchange and someone gave a live cochroach as a gift. This is the Halloween tree.


Drinks at the Velvet Margarita after seeing the Michelle Williams' new movie "Wendy & Lucy". Michelle Williams did a Q&A after. She seemed cool.


My co-worker Loretta.


Protesting Prop 8.


After protesting, I saw Paris filming her BFF show. She was very, very skinny, with alot of makeup, but she ate the food that she ordered.

My Week at My New Job

So after my first week of work, I really like the job. It is pretty long hours, but I like what I am doing, I am learning a ton, and they are super laid back. It is a mid size talent management company that has been around for awhile and they also run an indie record label too. They don't have any big stars, but they have some recognizable people that you have seen in movies and TV. I think I am going to learn alot and it will be a good building block for the future. Being as they have been in the business forever they know a lot of people and have a ton of celebrity stories, which is awesome. I randomly met Britney's 30 second first husband the other day, which was just strange. So that is that, and GO PHILS!!!!!!

EMMYS

I worked the Emmy Award Governors Ball tonight and it was pretty cool. It is basically the party that everyone goes to after the Emmys. I was able to get some pictures of the place but I need to figure out how to get them off my phone. So my job was to hand out drinks on the red carpet and then to take care of coffee. So I stood on the red carpet and everyone left the Nokia Theater and walked across the street to the Convention Center where the Governors Ball was. I saw so many people all at once as they all rushed out to go to the convention center. I know I missed a ton of people too. Seth Meyers from SNL came out way before everyone else and he got champagne from some other server and he gave her twenty bucks. Leslie David Baker (Stanley from the Office)took a water from me and Kevin Dillon (Drama from Entourage) took a champagne from me. I heard him say I am so excited for Jeremy. Both of them were really nice. My favorite people I saw at this point were JJ Abrams & Damon Lindeloff (creators of LOST). I almost dropped my water when I saw them. And I was pretty excited when I saw Cynthia Nixon and Neil Patrick Harris too.

Then we moved in and had to do some stuff, but my job was so boring that I was able to escape toward the end and I just walked around and stalked. At this point I was really disappointed that I hadn't seen anyone from Lost, Office or 30 Rock. I had seen Daniel Day kim but that is all. Then all of a sudden I look over and see Jenna Fischer and John Krasinski. Jenna was just as cute in person and taller then I expected. John Krasinski was adorable and had so many people trying to get pictures with him. Then the table next to them was 30 Rock and I got to see Tina Fey & Amy Poehler, which was awesome. Tina had a line of people around waiting to talk to her. No Will Arnett though - which would have made my night. Then a few minutes later I saw Alec Baldwin. Brian Baumgarten & Oscar Nunez (Kevin and Oscar from the Office) asked me to take a picture of them and their wives. Kevin is pretty much my favorite on the Office and I told them I loved them. That was pretty much it for celebrity interactions. I will upload pictures tomorrow.

Here is a list of celebs that I saw:
Alec Baldwin, Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Lorne Michaels, Seth Meyers, Chandra Wilson, Rainn Wilson, Jenna Fischer, John Krasinski, Leslie David Baker, Brian Baumgarten, Deborah Messing, Charlie Sheen, Ryan Seacrest, Jon Cryer, Kevin Dillon, Neil Patrick Harris, Cynthia Nixon, JJ Abrams, Damien Lindoloff, Julie Louis Dryfus, Terri Hatcher, Jon Stewart, Steven Colbert, Flight of the Concords people, BJ Novack, January Jones, Daniel Day Kim, Kristin Chenoweth, Holland Taylor, Vanessa Williams, Michael C Hall, Nicholette Sheridan, Adrian Grenier, Cheryl Hines, Jimmy Kimmel, Kumar, Kyle McLachlan, Olivia Wilde, the guy who won best supporting, William Morse, Christian from Project Runway, Josh Groban, the host from DWTS, Alan Cumming, David Boreanaz, Dennis Leary, Judy Dench, The PC guy, that guy that I can’t stand from Boston Public, Meredith & Phyllis from the Office.

Everyone pretty much looks like they look on TV. John Krasinski & Daniel Day Kim are so hot. January Jones and Olivia Wilde are beautiful. Charlie Sheen looked like a mess. Ryan Seacrest looks as gay as you would imagine. David Boreanaz looked miserable every time I saw him. Christian from PR is seriously 4'8. He is so little. So is Kristen Chenoweth. Also I gotta say Adrian Grenier is pretty cute even though I hate him.

People I wished I'd seen: more LOST people, Lauren Conrad, Jeff Probst, Heidi Klum & of course CONAN.

It was a really surreal night. OK more later. Goodnight.

Missed by a Miley

I had a meeting at my leisure Starbucks (opposed to my work Starbucks) yesterday and when I got there the guys told me that I had just missed Miley Cyrus by 5 minutes. I don't really care about Miley Cyrus, I have seen better celebrities than her so far, but for the past 4 months in LA I have been dying to see paparazzi chasing someone. All this time I have yet to see them. Well I am on my way out now - maybe I will run into the paps tonight. Except this time they'll be chasing The Hills cast!! Yeah-ya! I can always hope.
