Hahahaha. Shock there!

I've seen Madonna on the UWS several times with her entourage. Along with Jeremy Piven, Kelly Ripa, Andy Cohen from Bravo, and a bunch of reality nothings.

A couple of years ago I was standing on 24th Street on a smoke break and I saw an older woman walking down the street--what struck me was her nice outfit--a silk pants and blouse in a sea green, and I love green. Then I realized the woman was Rue McLanahan--Blanche from the Golden Girls.

I Googled her after that to make sure it likely was her--if she lived in or had connections in the city, and I was delighted to find out that she had helped lead the rescue of pets from apartments in lower Manhattan after September 11.

Seen Shia Labeouf a few times lately. He's filming Wall Street 2 all over midtown and downtown. He doesn't seem to take pictures with fans anymore. Also saw Oliver Stone.

Former NY Governor Elliot Spitzer strolled into a shot I was taking on Madison Ave., testing my camera. I've seen the highest number of celebrities near Central Park on Madison, Fifth Ave.,

I have to pay more attention to the people around me...I have not seen any celebs since I've been here, although one day my co-worker and I were walking to Rock Center for lunch and apparently Tiki Barber bumped into me and I didn't even realize it because I was so wrapped up in my conversation....

Wesley Snipes, Paris Hilton, Mario Lopez at Marquee.. Anderson Cooper underground subway station @ Time Warner ..Back in the day..Michael Lohan at SCORES...Carson Daly at SCORES..Joey Fatone of NSYNC at La Familglia in Times Sq...and thats all I can recall at the moment but you get the drift..
