Celebrity spotting in Toronto

[Tearer]

I ran into Mark McKinney not once, but twice today in Yorkville. He was on his cell phone the second time we crossed paths, but I gave him a big stupid smile and a thumbs up, and he gave me that trademark crooked smile back. Oh Mark, I'd have your manbabies.

Jen and I also saw Moe Berg earlier on Yonge St. He looks exactly like he did in the video for I'm an adult now.

Then we saw 21 Grams and got sledgehammered in the head.

Me and Mandy Moore got up close and personal this past tuesday afternoon...

 

[Chubbs]

I saw Esthero on Bloor Street a few days ago, we chatted briefly before she had to take off.

My heart skipped a beat.

 

[Jennika]

Tearer was giddy like a school girl after his Mark McKinney sighting,

and to think it would never have come to pass had that little... um... uncomfortable detour not happened

 

[sk8]

I saw George Snuffleupagus (Stromboloblolopoulous????) I don't know his last name.

the music guy

anyway he was in the hockey store on bloor between keele and dundas purchasing equipment while i was getting my skates sharpened.

they do excellent work there.

I saw Val Venus the pro-wrestler at the Guv once. he was dancing on the podium where the gogo dancers dance, with glowsticks and everything. he must have been fucked up on e or g.

 

[rejenerate]

Hah, I saw Moe Berg today too...he was in Le Chateau on Yonge near the Eaton Centre.

I see the designer guys and the trailer park boys at my work all the time.

Other than that, I saw Joshua Jackson on the patio of Hemmingways.

[litespeed]

I met Dave Chapelle in the airport once... I told that if we weren't in an airport I'd so puff him a J.

 

[mandapanda]

chantal kreviazuk came into work once and i didn't recognize her face, but i was like "oh her voice sounds familiar" so i was like staring at her trying to figure out who she was. it didn't dawn on me until she left. she probably thought i was some rabid starstruck fan or something.

then i walked by nick warren on bloor street once.

wow. my life is so exciting.

 

[exrboy]

Tom Cochrane bought a pack of Vantage Lights in my store many many years ago.

Last summer I saw the guy from Van Wilder walking down my street. (they film lots of movies in my hood)

 

[Moez]

A few months back I saw Anthony Hopkins twice. One of those times he nearly came into my restaurant but then walked away.

I was also Sean Penn and Robin Wright-Penn's hostess.
mmmm the princess bride.

Walked passed Mena Suvari near my school. Not recently, however.

 

[Temper Tantrum]

My celebrity sightings:

Mike Myers (he used to come into the pub where I worked. Embarassing but funny stories involved, talked to him a few times)

John Candy (before he passed away)

Eugeune Levy

and one of the guys from Sum41
