Celebrity Update Fridays

It's been some time since I wrote an update on a Friday. But this has been some week. Thank God I have no real job because then who would report on these crazy events. I still haven't slept a normal number of hours in one night yet. Between waiting on lines at Letterman to waiting out in rain at the Today Show, it's all been a long waiting game for a person who has barely any patience. So let's begin...

Spotted: Ashley Greene who plays Alice Cullen from Twilight outside the David Letterman show on Monday afternoon. Not sure who dressed her but she was wearing this terrible pinstripe suit that had cropped pants!! It was frigid out and her ankles were exposed with open toe shoes. She is such a pretty girl though. She signed a few autographs before she was ushered into the studio for her interview with Dave.

Robin Williams was the next to get out of the car and greet his fans. I don't think he missed signing a single autograph. Another nice actor I can add to the list. I didn't have anything for him to sign, but ended up in the same picture with him on one of those paparazzi websites. So close to being in US Weekly...I know my day will come soon.

Adam Lambert was also at the David Letterman that day for the second taping that would air on Wednesday. That was a total surprise to me because I wasn't expecting to see him for another couple days there. He arrived earlier than everyone else for his sound check and then returned after 5pm for the second taping of the show. It wasn't until the next morning at 7am in front of Z100 that I personally met him. Like I mentioned in an earlier post, he is such a nice guy and chatted us up for a bit. He performed at the Today Show on Wednesday morning instead of GMA because they considered his AMA performance to raunchy for morning TV. Hey ABC, how about you suck it? It's ok for Miley to dance on a pole and Madonna and Britney to lock lips on the same network but not a homosexual male. Hmpf!

On Monday night, I attended Rosie's Broadway Kids Gala. The evening honored Queen Latifah and featured performances from Nikki Blonsky, Wicked and West Side Story. Rosie is a hot mess! That's about all I have to say to this.

Tuesday afternoon I made my way back to David Letterman for a scene and a half. Zac Efron and Rihanna were on that day's show and the outside crowd definitely looked it. There were tons of screaming girls with posters and an unusual amount of guys to catch a glimpse of Rihanna. I got myself a pretty good spot behind the barricades and of course I brought nothing to be signed again. I think I just needed to see Troy Bolton for myself. Rihanna pulled up first looking too fierce for life with an all black outfit and studded shoes. She quickly waived to the paps and ran inside for her sound check. It was some time before Zefron pulled up and exited his car in slow motion. He threw his suit jacket over his back and placed his sunglasses on. I think there was possibly drool coming down my chin. He walked over and took some pics with younger fans and signed a lot of autographs. Girls started jumping over barricades and getting a little out of hand so they had to rush him in for his interview. I'm glad I decided to take the day off from stalking RPattz, I can only imagine the chaos that must have been like.

Wednesday morning was a like a battle of the bands. The Today Show held a free concert by Bon Jovi and The Early Show hosted Adam Lambert gracing the stage. Both concerts, only a few blocks from each other, brought in over hundreds of dedicated fans fighting off the freezing cold. But hey, who doesn't like a free concert from your favorite performers..so suck it up!
