Maggie Gyllenhaal and Peter Saarsgard on that street that goes right by Prospect Park in Park Slope, Brooklyn, getting into a sporty-looking Audi. She was standing near the back of the car and he was putting something (their baby) in the car on the other side. He looked scruffy and Grup-like, as did she. She's as nondescript in person as she is onscreen, but I guess that's part of her charm.

I saw Billy Crystal, Oprah, and Margherita Missoni/Mommy Missoni shopping on the 7th floor of the co-op at Barneys on October 9th. Billy looked HORRIBLE, depressed and gay, and was following his botoxed wife around as she shopped for shoes and he intermittently scowled on the couch. The Mother/Daughter Missoni duo were speaking Italian quietly and walking around the floor, Margherita looked gorgeous. Also saw Oprah as I was walking out, paparazzi were waiting for her by the 57th entrance.

Ricky Gervais was at the Mets-Cardinal playoff game on Thursday Oct. 12 with 3 guy friends. He was wearing a denim jacket, jeans and sneakers and was hardly recognizable. He seemed very nice, natural, cheered for the Mets, sang Take Me Out to the Ball Game and Sweet Caroline like everybody else and stayed for the entire game.
10/13 - Spring Street natural restaurant on spring & lafayette - saw Adrien Grenier at the spring street restaurant on spring & lafayette. he was with 2 older women. Went to the bathroom and came back sniffling. he had a beard. looked really skinny, foreign, and hairy - in a super hot way.

Lauren Ambrose from Six Feet Under walking down Broadway arm in arm with a random looking scruffy guy. Blends right in and looks just like on tv.

Kristen Dunst at Ruff Club at Annex on Orchard street. Really sweet dressed in all black, came with an enrourage of about ten.

Sarah Jessica Parker and James Wilkie on 7th and Charles early afternoon on Saturday. About to hail a cab. She looked tiny and cute. He was interested in a broken light bulb on the street and she said to be careful, that people were reckless with their trash in the city. That's an understatment!

I saw Uma Thuman getting out of a gigantic black SUV. She was super tall and wearing a short skirt with high black boots. She was there for a Donna Karan party at 68th and Madison. I decided to hang outside for a while. Good thing - I also spotted Michelle Williams and Angie Harmon also.

I saw Helen Hunt and Bette Midler right outside my apt building (E.78th St btwn 2nd & 3rd) at 3pm yesterday. They were filming a movie. Helen Hunt looks very average in person. But, Bette Midler, on the other hand, looks like plastic surgery gone bad covered up by about a pound of makeup. Kind of scary!

I saw Mario Batalli at 4pm on Saturday at the golf center at chelsea piers. he was with his two sons, bought a 200 ball bucket and even brought his own clubs. he was wearing dark sunglasses indoors and shorts with orange crocs. the cashier knew him, and said "hello mister batalli" when he handed over his platinum amex.

Saw Jason Schwartzman today at apc on mercer around 2:30. Dressed in a parka, jeans, pretty non-discript straight boy appeal. Was super nice to the staff and picked up a pair of shoes. SO TINY in person (like 5' 6")

Hilary Swank is filming "PS I Love You" on the corner of Orchard and Broome. When the cameras weren't rolling, she could be overheard gushing about how she used to be just a girl in a trailer park.

Mary Kate Olsen and Maximillian Snow shopping on madison & 68 st. They were both dressed in head to toe black and he's really cute. Sorry I can't say the same about MK.

Pretty sure I saw Abigail Breslin (adorable star of Little Miss Sunshine) about a week ago around 8 in the evening walking north on 2nd Ave. around 8th St. She was accompanied by a middle-aged woman who was wearing cool-middle-aged-woman clothes, like a velvet scarf and vaguely witchy boots and such. Abigail was adorable, her hair looked nice, and she had good posture and was talking to the woman. Very precocious, composed.

Octoper 12 - 10:30pm: Saw Gavin DeGraw in the lobby at the Nokia Theater in Times Square at the Nick Lachey concert. He was cute in-person, taking pictures with fans and flirting with girls. Vanessa Minnillo was also there waving to screaming fans from the VIP balcony.

Ed Burns was sitting with his kid and a bunch of other mommies (no Christy T.). Does he even work anymore (other than that spot on Entourage)?

Noonish, was shocked to see Claudia Schiffer on the ground floor at Century 21. No makeup, hair over-processed — but she's still a stunner. She looked at Halloween costumes and as I left was buying a huge suitcase. Spent rest of day trying to regain my self-esteem.

I know everyone sees Keri Russell but does everyone see her going into Equinox wearing tight spandex with her HOT boyfriend? Her ass is TINY. Also saw Ewan Mcgregor walking down Vesey and Greenwich (yesterday- Sunday at 6 pm) and though I always thought he was too effeminate...he is FINE. Black pants, black t-shirt and brown blazer....was walking with his ipod looking down at the ground...so manly, great dresser, wow.

Saw Frodo and Obi Wan (Elijah Wood and Ewan McGregor) at the Orange Park/South show at Mercury Lounge on Saturday night. Both looked good. They didn't attend together, but I suspect celebrity to celebrity radar brought them to close proximity at the crowded show as witnessed by yours truly.

Saw Bono and Bobby Shriver and about 8 others in the back room of The Spotted Pig on Wednesdsay night. They were real mellow. They ate lamb chops and drank SO many bottles of red wine! We peeked..

Mercer Kitchen—Arianna Huffington, Looking very Arianna Huffington in charcoal wrap (probably Loro Piana) and sunglasses. Man with her was carrying her attache.

Saturday, 10/14 - 4:00—Barney's Coop - Wooster in Soho—Princess Beatrice of York, shopping with two blonde friends. Very striking in skirt, blazer and riding boots. Beautiful, red hair. Was trying on a khaki sweater.

Yesterday, while making the rounds at Century 21 in the early afternoon my friends and I ran into Jason Lewis aka Smith aka Samantha Jones' last man standing. He was shopping for underwear and socks and from the looks of it he probably didn't have too many in reserve because he was stocking up. He won't be doing any underwear shoots anytime soon either, he looked aweful, almost anorexic and gaunt. He looked very city without the sexiness. He was chatty, introduced himself and made some small talk although a little unwillingly.

Saw Rosario Dawson yesterday (sunday 10/15) shopping with a friend at Tahir boutique on Orchard and Broome St. in the LES - homegirl is skinny and well, in short, breathtaking! She was trying out some cute dresses, and has perfect skin.

Saw both Lucy Liu and Bernadette Peters at Morimoto on Saturday evening (not together). Both were dining with two men and a woman. Lucy Liu's hair was chin length and she looked amazing. Bernadette Peters looked as she always does, pretty and classy.

Will Smith at 3:30 filming a movie at the hugo boss store on fifth ave and 56th street. Stopped on his way from his trailer to take some pics with fans. 51st Str. Bet. Broadway and 8th Ave.

October 17, 2006 @ 6 o'clock—Stood in line behind Jami Gertz the two kids with her. She's going to see the show at the end of the week.

Carlos D on East Houston near 1st Avenue. Wearing black shirt, black boots and looking very lean and healthy. Didnt realize how tall and skinny he really was.

Fat Joe was sitting across the court from me last night, courtside at the knicks vs celtics preseason game. he was wearing a yellow hoodie, a hat, and was with one friend. they were real friendly to the fans sitting around them, and two guys in shirts and ties were talking to them the whole game.

Friday, 10/13 - 10:30 pm, Algonquin Hotel Lobby—Tina Louise (Ginger) wearing too much spandex and a bomber jacket with knee boots. Poor thing.
