I must agree with xxx's post--what in the world is wrong that people will wait for hours to spot a "celebrity" who could care less about you?
I have a co-worker whose boyfriend recently spotted a "celeb" in a local eatery. According to her--"he was just sitting there, eating , like everyone else"--how would a celeb. eat? Through his ears? Why wouldn't he eat like everyone else? I don't get it. Everyone is just as important as anyone else, whether they be a janitor, Dr. or a "celeb".

You won't spot a celeb around Letterman -- they use a side entrance and rush in from a car.
Similarly, you won't spot a celeb in the Plaza or Waldorf.
Your best bet is on Madison Avenue during a weekday, early, when the celebrities tend to shop.
Today I saw George Hamilton in the Ralph Lauren section of Saks buying about $5,000 worth of Fall clothes. No kidding. He looked great.

I hate to pile on, but I, too, am quite annoyed by this post.
Why would someone's life be better for having spotted a celeb?
Celebs don't want people with that kind of attitude spotting them because it's those kind of people that make their lives publically unliveable.
I actually feel sorry for them.
When I see celebs in public and people point and bother them I just want to go swat them away and tell them to have some respect.
Celebs aren't ZOO ANIMALS for crying out loud!

TRUE STORY: I remembered a Saturday afternoon, I was walking down Fifth Ave. with friends (we live about 2 hours away fronm NYC), and noticed a bit of conmotion in a corner: Naomi Campbell was out in a photo shoot and there was quite a bit of people watching. I stood there, and who was also watching but Dyan Cannon! People were recognizing her as well. We got walking again and who walks by us and gave us a big smile when we recognized him? Dan Ackroyd!
As a teenager I ran into, literally, Liza Minelli. I crossed a busy NYC street looking the other way and smacked into her. She smiled and continued on. My sister was more excited than I was.

If you go to Elaine's on the Upper East Side (a bar/restaurant) chances are you'll see one. It's known to be a celebrity hangout. Just hang out at the bar. It's a small place; you can see the whole restaurant from the bar area.
Personally, I've seen celebs in unlikely places in NY...at the movies, in a diner, in casual bars, walking down the street, in a pizzeria. They are all over the place.
I don't understand the infatuation, either. They are not gods! I cringe when I see someone go up to a celeb while they are eating dinner to ask for an autograph. The poor bastards can't get any privacy.

for those of you who think because a person would like to spot a celebrity, they have no life, the same could be said of those who sit at the computer and answer posts that "annoy them". surely you have something better to do with YOUR time. spotting a celebrity so you can tell your friends about it, is no different then saying "i walked across the brooklyn bridge when i visited n.y." (it's just a bridge). so all you negative posters, lighten up, get up from your computers and enjoy life a little. it's the little things that count.

I'm a celeb and I don't appreciate being stalked. Acting is just a job for me so I don't understand why strangers feel the need to invade my privacy. I appreciate it when I get feedbacks from my acting but I don't like being followed. Please, give me my space!

Seeing celebrities is a hit or miss thing. Sure you can hang around outside Letterman or Saturday Night Live if you want to catch a glimpse of a "famous star", but you'd be amazed at how many celebs you can see by just walking the street and observing. 57th Street is always good. So are Park, Madison & 5th Avenues.
By the way, I too saw George Hamilton last Friday, coming out of the theatre where Chicago is playing and walking across the street to The Producers. Nice tan. Loafers with no socks. Old.

Many 'celebrities' leave very 'normal' lives. They can be spotted picking their children up from school, shopping at a local farmer's market, hailing a taxi, etc. I live in NYC. I am not a good spotter, some people seem to spot famous people all the time. It's not all that exciting.
