i saw ashlee simpson looking really bored at the pixies on Wednesday night. the show was great. guess she's just not into live music.

I just spotted Jenna Bush, with a bevy of Texas sorority girls dining at Peep. She looked pretty hot, but not as hot as her mom's looking these days.

Amber Frey must be real torn up about the whole Scott Peterson death verdict as I saw her in Saks Fifth yesterday with her huge overgrown child who is still in a stroller despite being 5 — stocking up on some goodies. Guess that cool million advance from Reagan went to a good cause— instead of, of I don't know— Capitol Defenders or something. PPS- even more white-trashie in person!

walked by twice to make sure because it seemed so weird somehow... annie lennox sitting in the window of stage deli on 7th and 53rd with a lady and a man, everyone looking happy, calm, and potentially interested in stage's 50 pound corned beef sandwich on rye. annie was looking better than i would ever have imagined—i figured she'd be less cute and more wrinkled. Little cap on her platnium cropped boycut, lesbian/bohemian-style cords and sweater combo (is she a lesbian?) in the classic unflattering earth tones, and i could see her oddly patterned mesh thong peeking out—it was kind of brown with multicolored flowers.

this weekend saw nick rhodes from duran duran in the midst of throngs of holiday hoppers in soho... he looked fabulously british. he wore a dark overcoat and if you looked up "coif" in the encyclopedia, you would likely see a small and accurate black and white sketch of his hair. he is still the most effeminately sexy man around.

Saw Paul Rudd at Manatus, my favorite neighborhood diner in the West Village on Bleecker on Saturday. He was wearing one of those baby papoose thingies w/ his infant baby (boy?) looking out for the first time. Cute baby. He was with his wife, gf?? She looked very tired and worn out from the baby. Then later that night saw Stephen Dorff and some skinny, modely in a weird kinda way, chick. They had the cool corner banquette so everyone could see them. They had a nosh and wine and left. Both were dressed very grunge.

On Tuesday, 12/14 saw Tim Robbins on the corner of University and 14th St, around 11 am, chomping on some gum and listening to an ipod.

Saw basic-cable host James Lipton waiting for the 6 train at 77th and Lex Tuesday morning. He's heavier than I thought - the words "pear shaped" come to mind - and he's got maybe an inch on Tom Cruise. Lipton was wearing an Inside the Actors studio messenger bag, a gayish looking pinky ring, and no hat. He waited on the platform reading the Post article about Kerik's affair with Judith Regan, then waddled aboard when the train arrived.

Saw Nicky Hilton last Sunday, eating brunch with a rather boring looking family at Blue Mill Tavern in the West Vill. Our waitress might have been better if she wasn't busy watching the surprisingly pretty NH.

Last night, around 8:45pm, my friend and I saw Cynthia Nixon walking into Daffy's on 5th Avenue and 16th St. She was dressed casual and looked very happy lugging around shopping bags. Very cool to know that even celebs of her stature are still down-to-earth enough to shop for clothing deals at Daffy's!

While i quickly spotted L.L. Cool J, Robert Smigel, and Adam Sandler all sitting next to each other court-side at last night Knicks - Pistons game (12/15), I was befuddled by the strange man sitting next to Sandler, wearing an Obey trucker hat and fiddling with a big fake mustache. After adjusting the focus on my binoculars a bit, I soon realized that the mysterious stranger was none other than Sacha Baron Cohen, enjoying a post-Hannukah
American sporting event.

Saw the very pretty, shiny-haired Rose McGowan shopping at Bendel's, wearing jeans and a black coat as opposed to her ass-bearing net MTV Awards debacle. She's apparently done a style 180 since her Marilyn Manson days and was buying a big, pink, furry winter hat that the anti-Christ would've surely loathed. Was in a hurry and rolled her eyes and scoffed when she couldn't find a cashier, and once she found one, she paid and ran off into the night.

12/16 at Joe's Pub for the Tammy Faye Starlite show, had a truly New York-anything-can-happen moment when Debbie Harry was picked out of the crowd and invited to sing with Tammy Faye. It was obviously sort of set up because she had crib notes for the lyrics, but it was awesome to hear her sing "You Ain't Woman Enough to Take my Man" (even though she didn't seem very, well, alert). She was a little rumpled in ill-fitting black linen (ummm, winter?) but she's Debbie Harry and no one cared.

Saw James Denton of Desperate Housewives on the 2 train from 72nd St. to Times Square. Was holding onto a stroller, which I took to be for his child, and was talking to some woman, who I took to be his wife. I wasn't sure what to believe, though, because she was not really that attractive and I couldn't locate a child anywhere near them. Maybe he was just way into his chivalrous sexy plumber character. In any case, he was dressed exceedingly normally, had stubble just like Mike Delfino sometimes does, and looked 100% the same as he does on TV. Ooh la la.

Walking up Park Ave. South near 22nd Street Sunday evening on my way to a holiday party, I realized I'd forgotten the bottle of wine I meant to bring to the party. "Dammit," I said out loud, just as Chloe Sevigny passed me (she was walking downtown, natch). We made eye contact, and lest she think I was saying this to her ("damn you, Chloe, for not inviting me to your 30th b-day bash!"), I followed up with an "uh, sorry" and she kept walking. She was wearing all black—short belted coat, short skirt, tights (hello skinny legs!) and had her hair pulled back... very svelte.

Monday night (December 13, 2004) was at Butter and had 3 gawker sightings. First, as we entered saw Heidi Klum s ex (don t know his name, but recognized him [Ed: Flavio Briatore? Ric Pipino? Who knows.] then later on in the night saw MK Olsen (my first sighting of her here) and my friend introduced us and she was soo nice. She is super short and was dressed like a hobo. Finally, ran into Vincent Gallo at the end of the night and I totally went up to him and started rambling how I thought I saw him last week and it wasn t him. I was super obnoxious but he was nice and entertained my drunken ass!

Wednesday evening around 5:00 PM I saw Ana Gasteyer in the Herald Square GAP. She was browsing through the women s department and had an arm full of clothes. She looked really slim and in great shape. Much prettier in person than on television.

Queer Eye foodie Ted Allen shopping at Paul Smith (16th & 5th) wearing killer John Varvatos Converse.

Saw Crispin Glover walking an English bulldog at 19th and Park. (looking very Crispin Glover-ish).

Dave Chappelle (and male friend) walking were east on 28th between Madison & Park. (so skinny!)

Saw Bravo's MANHUNT runner-up Rob, Tuesday night at gay bar The Slide, helping a modeling buddy look for his lost cell phone. Small and shiny, he still looked hot and was friendly and California-mellow. He's taking a year off from law school (Pepperdine) to try his hand — and other parts — at modeling.

saw john stossel chatting away on his cell phone, fluffy moustasche flapping in the breeze, on the corner of 52nd and 5th ave today around 9:30 am. tried to take a cell phone pic out of the window of my cab, but it didn't work.

I was walking near the NBC Studios and saw Javier Bardem coming out...no one recognized him. i had to do a double take...he had a camera guy following him around filming him and a personal assistant and 2 other people... really cute and striking in person (in that hot Guido kind of way), though his nose looked huge in person.

Last night at the Roadrunner Records Christmas party, my friends and I gaped at Jasmine St. Claire, the porn star who holds the world record for the biggest gangbang (is that the right terminology? i don't know too much about gangbangs). a quick google search says she took on 300 guys in one session. my boyfriend, who tried to strike up engaging conversation with Jasmine, couldn't stop staring at her enormous ta-tas. fun party.
