TRL and the set of Night at the Museum 2

Yesterday I went to both TRL and the set of Night at the Museum 2. I took a lot of pictures and videos and definitely have stories to tell. I will try to upload everything as soon as possible but until then, here's a picture my friend and I took with Ben Stiller.

Katie and Suri cannot shop in peace

When Katie Holmes was shopping with Suri last Sunday in Greenwich Village it was absolutely crazy. People crowded the store window and took up most of the block surrounding it. As I was watching everything go down I was shocked and felt so horrible that they chase her around like that. I mean people were even sitting on other people's shoulders just to get a glimpse of her. As she came out of the store about 45 minutes later, the crowd swarmed her and all I got to see was the top of her head.

The Jonas Brothers!

Okay so I was officially 'Jonafied' for a day [8.12.08]. A lot of following went down on my part and it was all pretty fun. I went to TRL, the Apple Store in SoHo, and their hotel in hopes of getting a picture with them. My hopes were quickly shot down when I saw the crowds of people at each and every spot. Most of the pictures I took suck because people kept pushing me whenever the JoBros were in sight...here is one good picture and a video:

*for some reason the best video I have isn't uploading. I'll keep trying.

Gossip Girl set....for the 3rd time

Gossip Girl was filming today around Chinatown...a lot happened today so here's the rundown:

  • When my friend and I got there Ed was just coming out of a van to go to his trailer.
  • We stopped him and asked for a picture, he said yes.
  • A lot of people were already waiting at the hair/make up trailer to see the cast members.
  • Blake's mom, sister (Robyn Lively), brother-in-law (Bart Johnson), and their kids were outside as well as in and out of the trailer.
  • All were very nice.
  • I didn't realize Bart Johnson was from High School Musical until after we left the set.
  • I knew who Robyn was because Teen Witch was my favorite movie as a kid.
  • Bart thinks it's cool to see "Blake become so famous."
  • When I asked Robyn for a picture and told her that I love Teen Witch she turned to Blake and said, "Blake, look who's taking pictures now."
  • They both laughed.
  • Penn went out of his way to make sure that two young girls got a picture with him.
  • Everyone was taking pictures...including GG crew and Bart.
Last week when they were filming at STK my friend and I were on set and got to talk to Blake's dad, Ernie. He's very down to earth and tried his best to get us a picture with Blake but the paparazzi wouldn't let it happen. Earlier in the day the paps and Blake's bodyguard got into an argument about homosexuality, friends, and other things like that so tension was pretty high. It was the funniest thing I've seen in a long time.


Chris and Rihanna like Golden Crust

So I was walking down 14th and 6th after getting my Red Mango fix and this guy comes out of nowhere asking my friend and I if we like Chris Brown. We say yes and he then tells us that Chris and Rihanna are a few stores down at Golden Crust. We don't believe him at first so since it's in our direction we head over there anyway. When we get there we realize he was telling the truth.

We walk in (the place is empty except for Chris, Rihanna, their entourage, the staff, and two other people) and see Chris first dressed casually in a black shirt and sweats. When his bodyguard sees us look in his direction he tries to hide them by standing in front of them. It didn't work so well. I was pretending to look at the menu and this is how it goes:

Bodyguard: "She's frontin'...she ain't gonna buy food, she's already eating ice cream!"
Me: "It's not ice cream, it's frozen yogurt."
Bodyguard: "blah blah blah I think I've seen you yesterday and the day before that and the day before that blah blah blah blah you can order right there"
Me: "I know where to order."

He was being an ass. I was getting annoyed. My friend felt uncomfortable. We both didn't want to look like losers in front of two awesome people...so we left.

That whole situation was so random, cool but random.
