Celebrity encounters
I spent the afternoon in the town of Angoulême because there's a film festival going on there right now. I went there hoping to stalk run into celebrities and I did indeed. I just walked past a bookstore and it turns out part of the jury was doing a radio show there half an hour later.
I saw a bunch of celebrities that most of you probably won't know but bear with me. There was Dominique Besnehard, famous agent and founder of the festival, Nathalie Baye, Emilie Dequenne, Audrey Dana, Coline Serreau and Academy award winner Claude Lelouch. That was pretty interesting, not only to watch the actual interviews but to see the behind the scenes stuff going on during a radio show.
Then a second radio show started, the Top 50 (the equivalent of the AT40), with musicians as guests. Dani, Lulu Gainsbourg - Serge Gainsbourg's son - and songwriter Luc Plamondon. I also saw Sandrine Bonnaire who was there for a book signing.
I suck for not having a camera with me lol but there were plenty of photographers around so if I'm in the newspaper tomorrow I'll post it here.

PS: I was uninspired for the 30 day meme so I kinda stopped. Don't know if I'll ever do the rest.
