I’m not really one to follow celebrity news, so I usually have no idea who is dating who or where they happen to be staying while in Paris. Once I had to take a photo of the Paris Ritz for ELLE Hong Kong to illustrate a travel article I wrote. I was standing outside trying to get a decent pic of the main entrance, but there was a small crowd forming, ruining my view. Just as I stepped in front of them to get a clear shot, Hugh Grant and a blonde stepped out. Needless to say, my editor didn’t put that photo in there. That was three years ago,and I haven’t seen too many stars since then. But this week I saw four in one week.
Audioslave singer Chris Cornell was at his bar, BC (Black Calavados, 44 Rue Pierre 1re de Serbie, 8th) on Thursday night when I arrived, and about 30 minutes later Leonardo DiCaprio arrived with his entourage. No paparazzi, of course, in such a tiny place.
Then (admittedly tipped off by some friends), I saw the foxy Vince Vaughn and his girlfriend Jennifer Aniston right around the corner, going into the Plaza Athénée Hotel (Avenue Montaigne, 8th) on Tuesday. Being in Paris, it’s just sooooo uncool to acknowledge stars in the street, let alone scream, throw panties, or ask for an autograph, so I just pretended I didn’t notice like everyone else. But just for the record, in case I miss some essential celebrity news, could someone tell me if Chris or Vince get dumped by their ladies? 😉
