brushes with celebrity (the order in which they occurred):
evander holyfield, in the stairwell at an ailey show
digable planets (sans ladybug mecca), on a brooklyn street corner, right after their first album came out
kriss kross, at an atlanta movie theatre concession stand, whom I inexplicably felt compelled to tell just "how great I thought cherry slushies were"
sigourney weaver, at the moma gift shop, towering over the art books
lauren graham, at a los angeles antique shop, bored
isaac mizrahi, in the village, walking a teeny tiny toy dog
andre 3000, at an atlanta movie theatre, wearing a periwinkle silk turban
I REPEAT, ANDRE 3000 AT A MOVIE THEATRE, WEARING A PERIWINKLE SILK TURBAN
carrie brownstein, at my target in portland, looking at the same cheapo clothes I was
natalie portman, shopping for vintage on the lodekka bus while I was working there, wearing a trench coat and sunglasses and bejeweled flip flops in the middle of summer
maggie gyllenhaal and peter sarsgaard, in park slope, magical land of magical brownstones, yoga mats in tow
Oooo...intersecting brush...a woman asks my partner if she can sit down at the table he's sitting at outside starbucks in London + he says sure. Then someone comes up + asks her for her autograph...Natalie Portman's autograph
ReplyDeleteah! she's very unassuming. (which I found to be quite lovely).
DeleteLast week I was in Boston sitting on a bench outside the Fine Arts Museum planning what I wanted to make sure I saw and a black towncar pulled up and Christian Siriano got out. I guess maybe he was going in to see the fashion and gender exhibit too. He had a red pantsuit in it.
ReplyDeletechristian siriano! in a red pantsuit! that's terrific.
