· Waited to get into the Roosevelt hotel's party at the Tropicana for two hours (was a guest at the hotel, at the end the super-cool manager snuck me in) and arrived to see a so-so bash that didnt quite live up to the outside hype. However did see the short but cute Wilmer Valderrama in the line to get in (had a huge bodygaurd with him, guess he's afraid of being attacked by lttle girls or something) and once inside I saw a wobbly Eva Mendes and later heard from the Tropicana staff (who shall go nameless) that saucy Eva was wasted out of her mind in the VIP room and ended up barfing all over the carpet. Very attractive. The maid wasn't too happy about cleaning it up, either. Earlier in the day I also spotted Cindy Crawford by the pool with her two boys who had fun annoying the guests by bouncing up and down on the lawnchairs (the boys, not Cindy.) Across the street at The Renaissance's lobby I spotted Ellen Burstyn who looked stunning for her age without a stitch of makeup. Elliott Gould was dressed in Ocean's Eleven mode at the SAG meeting in the grand ballroom. Morgan Fairchild was there too looking tres tiny and I overhead the SAG board bitching about the new election and how they weren't going to be stepped on THIS TIME with regards to voting. Whether that works in Fairchild's favor, I don't know.

· I was trying to pick out a magazine to buy so that I could validate my parking at the Borders' on Westwood when Burt Reynolds' gravelly voice plucked me from my selection process. He was giving kindly acting advice, even as far as suggesting an acting teacher, to an appropriately shy young actor reading Backstage West. Not more than a second after finishing his conversation, a young asshole encroaching on Mr. Reynolds' space started chatting him up about the new Elmore Leonard novel (which Mr. Reynolds was holding), his experience on Boogie Nights, and how he had a script for Mr. Reynolds. "How declasse! Biggie B should bitch slap that mofo," I thought. But no, Mr. Reynolds politely engaged in the conversation, declined the script (though he did tell the kid to get it to him through his agent), took a card, and even at one point patted him on the shoulder. As a side note, Burt Reynolds is one small dude.

· No big surprise here, but I saw Jake Gyllenhaal walking a cute short-haired german sheppard mix in Runyon Canyon Sunday (7/31) with a male friend. Jake had a bit of a scruffy beard and typical casual hiking clothes on (including some 70's throwback white shorts with green piping). His head was not as large for his body as I had feared after reading previous sightings in your column. Also, my boyfriend reported that he saw Mr. Suntan himself, George Hamilton, at Jack Sprat's on Pico at lunchtime today (Monday, 8/1). Apparently wearing a seersucker suit. Yikes.

· Sighted: Heath Ledger and Michelle Williams eating dinner at Blairs Restaurant in Silverlake. They looked to be enjoying a nice quiet dinner, one wouldn't be able to tell wheather they we're on-again or off-again (I hear they're off...) He was looking very scruffy and she was looking like she was about to pop, but had a nice glow about her.

· started out during lunch at barney greengrass, where i had a crappy table right next to the hostess station, so i saw all the comings and goings. bored with my lunch companions, i noticed a 40something blond woman playing with her blackberry and waiting for someone. she ordered a drink for herself and for her late lunch date, and i thought "who would let someone order your drink before you get to lunch?" then i realized, as a blond, skinny girl pranced towards the table, it was the one, the only Ashley Olsen!! this was all very exciting for me, but anyways, they talked for a long time, then I left, but AO looked pretty, wearing a silk lavender polka dot dress.
then i went to ron herman on melrose, which was pretty empty, with the annoying salespeople all chatting around the front table like they always do....when a notice a freaky looking man-child enter the room, practically begging to be noticed. it was John Mayer, wearing jeans and a black t-shirt. the scary part is that his big-lipped baby face does not match his body: he's taller than you'd think, with big biceps and tattoos...very weird.
the final sighting of the day was at the unglamorous cheesecake factory in Brentwood: Topher Grace. Nothing particularly interesting, but he was sitting on the patio, with a guy who looked a lot like him (maybe brother?). he was really blond, and from across the patio, a little tiny looking....i don't think anyone really noticed him (or maybe no one cares).

· Saw Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen at The Dime last night, with their underaged skinny-asses smoking inside the bar. They were sitting with a large group (matter of fact they kind of looked fresh outta the trailer park). Who says money can't buy everything.

· It was attack of the syndicated TV stars at Yu-N-Mi Sushi in Beverly Hills last night (8/2). Topher Grace sat next to me and was sporting a terrible bleach blonde bowl cut and was talking way too loud. He was sitting with a familiar looking guy (E-list actor type) who asked "if they would never have to wait again" if Topher signed a piece of paper for their trophy wall. Nice one, jackass. Shortly after, James Van Der Beek took the table at the end of our row. He was joined by a clone (trucker hat, scruffy beard, and faded t-shirt), and a mother and her son (I'm pretty sure they were related although they might have been dating). I was going to say that his head looks much bigger in person. . . .but doesn't it always looks big?

· Saturday the 23rd, Santa Monica. My visiting sister and I went to Planet Blue on Montana and I immediately noticed petite and cute Mena Suvari. It could have been her horsey friend screaming her name and then looking around to make sure everyone knew they were together that made me notice her. HOWEVER, they were quickly upstaged when the governator himself, Ah-nuld, entered our world with kids, secret service stationed at all corners of the store. He looked like tan plastic and had hiked-up shorts to match his hiked-up white socks and (gag) loafers. Cute daughters, he creeped me out with that shiny skin of his.

· Just went for a La Brea Bakery lunch run (8/1). I wanted to pick up one of those really good summer special sandwiches —turkey-sage-and-balsamic-onions — but the guy behind the counter said that the woman to my left, paying at the cash register, had taken the last one. I glanced over and it was Debi Mazar. She seemed to feel bad that it was her fault, so she helpfully suggested a ham-and-gruyere (also, I may report, very good). Debi was dressed in an orange sweater and seersucker-looking pants. Met up with an elderly dude sitting outside, tanned with glasses on — seemed kinda paternal. She's not as severe/abrasive in person (looks and personality) as her supposedly Debi Mazar-inspired character on "Entourage." In fact, she was actually really sweet. Go figure.

· Uber hip Urth Café Saturday aftern\oon, spotted the tiny weenie Selma Blair looking so cute in her summer wear. Ahmet Zappa was there too playing grab ass with Selma as they got their iced drinks. He’s a little pudgy but still hot in that Zappa sort of way. Hot Couple.

· Saturday I was heading out of the Reel Inn when I had the distinct pleasure of seeing Vincent Gallo in the parking lot. I would've paid more attention to what he was doing, who he was with, etc., but I was too busy trying to sneak a peek at his legendary package. Maybe his jeans were too tight, but I didn't see anything out of the ordinary...Damn!

· Entered the office of my dentist in Toluca Lake on friday afternoon. A woman was helping a clearly drugged post operative patient out of the office towards the elevator. His big greyish fro could be seen from across the room coming towards me. He looked like he was on ludes. Maybe he was. As he passed I whispered, "Good Luck, Philly". He briefly looked up and attempted a half smile to no avail. It was soon-to-be-tried-wall-of-sound-turned-murderer Phil Spector.

· Double Gilmore Girls sighting today (7/31). I was at the In-N-Out on Washington near Costco in Culver City and had just finished refilling my Diet Coke and who should I see walking in the door but Rory herself, Alexis Bledel. She looked like Rory - thin but pretty - like a regular girl on a weekend in jeans and a white camisole with her hair in a bun. Really blue eyes. I realized upon closer inspection that one of her two male companions was Milo Ventimiglia (sp?), a.k.a. Jess. He was wearing a black shirt and shorts and what appeared to be one of those wallets with the chains that hook onto your beltloop, which for some reason I found funny. They and their friend looked normal and sat at a table near the window. I didn't see their ride, nor if Alexis ate.

· I saw big-old schlockmeister Kevin Smith, 7/27/05, filling up his huge and not-too-new Ford SUV at the Magic Gas on Echo Park Blvd. Weird. I guess he's still indie, if he's in Echo Park. Guffaw! He kept opening and shutting the door, maybe to keep his corpulent body cool. He was wearing his usual 'sixth-grade' outfit. Long denim shorts, sneakers and some sort of baseball jearsey. Oh, did I mention the giant bald spot on his head? Well, there was a big one. Dude, is what we call in the biz, 'fugly' and, might I add, his movies bite.

· I went to the premiere of a new TNT show this past Sunday [7/31] at Lucky Strike at H+H in H'wood. That's a lot of H's. It's a good thing I WANTED to be there. Anyway, we arrived fashionably on time and had a chance to rub elbows with the show's stars [such as they are] and some of the celeb invitees. Show star Gary "Eerie, Indiana" Cole [Office Space, Brady Bunch movies, Yeeaaah....] was in attendance, looking much thinner and less muscular than his onscreen persona. Looking more muscular than his TV persona was "author," 'roider and Surreal Life "star" Jose Canseco. That guy is freakin' huge! He looks like an Hispanic Schwarzenegger, a sweaty, greasy walking mass of muscle in a tight baseball-style shirt [go figure] that left absolutely nothing to the imagination. But the best sight of the night for me was former porn star, current mainstream hottie Traci Lords! She looked great, but her once jaw-droppingly hot and jail-bait-y body seems to have atrophied over time, and she has no ass anymore. Seriously, it made me feel sad and old at the same time...She hung out for about half of the show, then bolted with her date/husband/john. All in all, an excellent night for starspotting...Good times at Lucky Strike, says I!

· I sat next to Shannon Elizabeth (uh, rather, Shannan Fadal) at a Los Feliz (Gateway Animal Hosptial) animal hospital today . . . no worries . . . she got some meds for her dog (a rather large looking animal) . . . seemes to be a genuine dog lover, as she smiled and petted every dog in the waiting room .

· John Mayer at the Mercedes-Benz cup tournament at UCLA last night (7/29). Stopped to take a couple of photos with a Paris Hilton wannabee before the doubles tournament began. Then proceeded to talk to
another female fan about classic 90's movies after she approached him about his stint on I love the 90's. Looks like a nice enough guy, although you wouldn't be able to tell it was him from all his tattoos.

· I had the best sighting ever this weekend — Chad Allen in The Mission restaurant in San Diego. All my childhood dreams come true, only this time he was wearing a shirt. He was with a table of guys and was chatting up Michael, the country-singing princess' assistant on LOVE IS IN THE HEIR (VH1 reality show).
I've worked in a major agency and seen a ton of celebs, but this duo was by far the most exciting.

· I had jury duty downtown yesterday (7/27/05) and you know you're living in Los Angeles when you have a minor but very good celebrity sighting at jury duty. Grant Show of "Melrose Place" fame was there and is still looking very good (5'10" of YUM!), but is apparently not famous enough to get out of jury duty. I think I was the only person who recognized him. He wears reading glasses which I found incredibly sexy.

· In a rare East Side celebrity sighting, I saw Go-Go's guitarist and "Surreal Life" star Jane Wiedlin walking her dog in Silver Lake yesterday. She was dressed head to toe in pink. Pink pants, pink t-shirt, and pink hat. The dog was big and light brown.
