Famous Person Sighting #9078650383 :
at Lollipop this terribly small venue on 61st street. for the life of me i can't remember this guys name, but anyway he was wandering around this miniscuel club - thank god it wasn't packed last night - and it was no doubt that it was this actor. so, who cares. gemma ward, moby, zach braff, leonardo dicaprio, live nation producers, hip hop moguls, that chef dude from hells kitchen, axle rose whoever the fuck you are unless you are one of the olsen twins i don't really care. but some people do, including this older dude that was whacked out of his tree with no desire to make an attempt at discretion :
"DID YOU SEE [so-and-so] ?!?! THAT'S _____ ! DO YOU WANT TO MEET HIM?!?! I'LL INTRODUCE YOU!!"
and poor mister famous dude is like, 5 feet away. i'm glad Cocaine Man wasn't speaking to me.
and again, some stranger asked me who i was. as in
"Excuse me, but my friend over here was wondering who you are?"
how strange to be assumed you're some one famous. I once had someone refuse to leave this restaurant, Oceana, until he got the chance to ask me who i was. He didn't believe me when I told him I wasn't famous! fucking strange. I don't think that me and fame would go too well together. at least, it would take a long time..
