I've seen Mr Big (Sex and the City) out jogging in the west village. Just jogging like a regular guy with his friend and no one noticed or said anything till someone SAID something.
Really if you aren't look for it, you aren't likely to notice.
I remember seeing Cyndi Lauper at the table across from me at a rather cheap restaurant around 40 something street (W of 8th Ave). The friend I was with went up to her table and said "Are you Cyndi Lauper". One of the guys sitting with her said "Yes, that's her." He didn't seem amused.
And I saw someone who I was told is a TV star at a grocery store in the Upper West Side once.
this is what i hate about certain people, they think nyc(soho, times square, greenwich village, chelsea) is/are full of celebs, not true, i've lived here my whole life and the only famous person(s) i've ever encountered were danielle the winner of america's next top model(she's not really that famous) and michael imperioli. that's about it.
Um, you've obviously never spent any extended period of time in the West Village...
Andy Samberg lives a few streets over from me and is a regular sighting, Jason Sudeikis was in front of me picking up a package at UPS, I saw Jennifer Coolidge on Bleecker Street the other day—and that's just within the past week. Plus, I'm generally oblivious so who knows how many people I pass by and don't even notice.
Other people me/my boyfriend have seen or met around the city... Yoko Ono, Robert DeNiro (having brunch in Tribeca), Tom Wolfe, Rihanna, Alexander Wang, the guys from Shipley & Halmos (fashion designers), etc.
Never have seen anyone out with security or mobs of people. They just go about their normal lives like anyone else (i.e., Jason Sudeikis picking up his package at UPS).
And when you guys mean west village, greenwich soho etc, can you guys tell me what trains you guys are talking about? I'm assuming its the N/R trains. I never knew where the village is. What street is that around?
There are lots of trains in downtown... It's not like the further out you go where you have just one or two lines.
West Village is going to be 14th Street, Christopher Street and Houston Street on the 1, 2, 3. Greenwich Village is going to be W. 4th Street (lots of trains here—B, D, F, M, B, C, E, etc.), 8th St. (N, R). SoHo is going to be Spring Street (C, E, 6), Prince Street (N, R), and Broadway-Lafayette (B, D, F), etc. Not hard science but that gives you a rough outline of neighborhood boundaries.

OH and i just so happen to see the band YEAH YEAH YEAHS about two years ago just walking around chelsea and there were a bunch of people following them, kinda looked like a mob to me, but they didn't have security.
I am not sure what is the soho spot people are talking about. When i mean i go midtown, i mean 34th and 42nd street on the 6th-7th avenue where you take the N, R or 1/2/3 train. When i go downtown, i mean like prince street and 14th street and getting there by the N/R where there are tons of clothing stores etc there but i never ever seen a celebrity around there.
I wanted to know am i in the wrong spot of soho
