If you guessed that I saw a Gossip Girl star then you are correct! I haven't even been in New York 24 hours and I have had 2 celeb sightings!
My friends and I stopped into In God We Trust. The store is small and while I was browsing the racks I overheard the girl next to me talking. I thought she sounded familiar but was intent on finding something to wear to the Tuesday night meetup. The girl was trying to translate a word in Spanish. I told her "I think the word is..." and smiled so she didn't think I was some know it all eavesdropping. Well the girl was BLA*KE LIVE*LY! She smiled back and explained that she was searching for the slang version of this word (still not clear why but whatever). At this point I am thinking to myself: you and your big mouth should have stayed quiet! So then M came over with her iphone (remember-small store so she heard our convo) and we searched online (Bl*ake suggested some sites and so did her friend) but we couldn't find anything. My friends had NO CLUE who she was until later when we left and I told them. Bl*ake looked great and I couldn't believe how tall she is (rare for hollywood)! About my height, 5'10, (and I am pretty sure she wasn't wearing heels).
I am not sure if the girl at the cash register didn't recognize her or was just playing it cool but she asked Bl*ake what her name was when she was ordering something.
(oh and this was about 10 minutes after we saw Kir*sten Dun*st walk past us)
This was definitely a great way to start my weekend. Let's hope I see Blair and Chuck too ;)

LUCKY GIRL! I love how you were so nonchalant! I would have been a babbling idiot
ReplyDeleteHow cool! I am totally jealous that you've already seen 2 celebs! I've lived in LA for over a year and haven't seen ANYONE worth writing about!
ReplyDeleteOhhh la la! that's so exciting!!! Good luck on your star spottings for the rest of your trip!
ReplyDeleteOMG...I'm so jealous! You played it SO. COOL. I would have been all "ummmm Blake, can we get a picture?"
ReplyDeleteWow that's pretty neat. She probably really appreciated your playing it cool and not hanging over her like a normal fan would. It must be hard getting all that attention, I don't understand how celebrities cope.
ReplyDeleteYou definitely beat my two sightings today. Pauly shore and Claire (Steve Sanders' girlfriend) from 90210.
ReplyDeleteOH MY GOSH!! that is so exciting!
ReplyDeleteI am so jealous!! I heart gossip girl, and Blake Lively! (can't wait for it to come back next monday)

KATE, I am SO jealous! Love her. Oh Chuck and Blair, I hope I have some tiny sightings when I head up on Tuesday, unfortunately I'll be in midtown, last year I saw Tina Fey. Keep us updated!

ReplyDeleteomg! how fantastic! i've never spotted a celeb out in the, shall we say, 'wild'. i'm so jealous!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun celebrity sightings!!! So exciting!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! And you talked to her too!
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised she's that tall. Most celebs are much shorter than you think when you see them in-person.
ahh! that's so cool. I've live in nyc for almost 2 yrs and have run into paul giamatti TWICE but that's it. (and only cuz he lives in my neighborhood.)
