The highlights(?) of my celeb-watching in L.A.(Nov.-today):

the fat guy from My Name is Earl
Sue from Swingers
the short old dude from New York Dolls
Slash
Tate Donovan
Danny Bonaduce
Elisha Cuthbert
Ian Ziering
the cute Jewish girl from David Spade's show
Adriana from the Sopranos
Karen O.
Warren(from Buffy)

And I've actually talked to David Lynch.

there was some famous transgender person sitting at the table next to us at lunch a week ago but i didn't know who she was so i just admired her hair and went on about my self-absorbed blather.

The other day I was getting out of the elevator and Jennifer Aniston was getting on! I'm not even a fan of hers but I was secretely 1% excited

I saw Donny Osmond on the elevator last year too

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

awesome. do you live in vince vaughn's building? please say yes and let me visit so i can drink with the master.

i feel weird when i know them but don't really like what they do. like i really don't wanna pay attention to them.

That's why you got that BigChurch.com ad...

it's best when your friends are friends with a famous person and you get to meet them in a natural social situation. even then, it's like hanging out with someone who has a cat head growing out of their neck. "oh, that meow came from you? i TOTALLY didn't notice!"

Anx said:

Amanda Leopre?

Um LOL

Anx just reminded me...

my friend was at a party with a rapper who has becoming famous in the past year (even jerseykrs knows who he is already).

my friend asked the rapper if he was familiar.. with his own music!

"do you listen to that _____ guy?"

"um, i AM that guy"

CinisterCee said:

Who? MIMS? Young Jeezy? Old MiMeezy?

It's just funny that he was hip enough to name-drop but wasn't well known enough to stand out in appearance at a party

live4lust said:

Except for Slash, those people are not even really famous, maybe in small town, but in LA.

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

I know you're gay, but were her nipples erect?

lilgish said:

David Lynch isn't famous? And I never made any claims as to their famousness, but most of them are celebrities by any standard. If that's a word and it probably isn't.

live4lust said:

Oh yea, David is A-list cool, what did you talk about? I was just referring to the Danny Bona-douche, Ian Ziering, and the cute Jewish girl from David Spade's show...etc

lilgish said:

We talked Mulholland Drive, which I bought the French special edition of because it's rad(and it seemed like he appreciated that) and we asked him when season two of Twin Peaks would be out. The funny thing is, it just came out this week, but when we talked to him in November, he had no idea when it was coming out. You think they'd let the creator know.

live4lust said:

Yea, David is on some whole other shit, I still don't understand Blue Velvet or Twin Peaks, yet the imagery is still vivid and memorable. I aspire to his level of creativity..and he has cool hair.

lilgish said:

He does. And he's incredibly nice and very polite.

Mara said:

No. I've been to enough Lords of Acid album release parties to know all about Amanda Lepore.

I forget who it was. I think she dated some reality TV person or something? I don't know. I just remember the particulars of her fame weren't nearly as interesting as her outfit and hair.

MIGUELGOMEZ said:

maybe. who's that? what is she known for?

Anx said:

She was the girlfriend of the Navy(?) guy that was beaten to death in Florida a while back. They made a movie about it called A SOLDIERS GIRL. She did a cameo in Transamerica.

I'm famous cause I see famous people.

I work with someone who has to have their own security/bodyguards. To me I only care if they show up and do what they're supposed to do. I'm so oblivious when I'm walking around NYC that I walk by celebrities and don't even notice until after the fact. Also, I don't watch a ton of TV or movies so a lot of times I don't even know who the people are, period (like this thread, I have no idea who most of the 'celebs' mentioned are).
