Where the celebrities roll in New York City
It's an undeniable fact that celebrities are America's royalty, so it's no surprise that in New York City there are spots that cater specifically to their celeb clientele. Unlike Hollywood, unless the superstars are in their Lincoln Town Cars, you're walking amongst them (like the time I saw Andy Samberg crossing the street and almost pounced on him like a rabid lion) and often find yourself eating/shopping/drinking with them. Or, maybe you're too busy scrolling through your Blackberry to notice? Whatever the case is, celebs are at your disposal, you just need to know where to look and that my friends....is what MY eyes are for ;) And please, feel free to look but don't touch.

You know it's tailored for the celebs when......
…..Kanye West goes there? I’m pretty sure he’s more diva than Diana Ross or Mariah Carey (who I am convinced are both aliens.)
This is also where celebs pull little publicity stunts like Paris Hilton and Elisha Cuthbert (the hot on from 24) were reportedly making out? Or maybe, they’re really in love. Who knows. Celebrities baffle me.
Celeb sightings:
- The cast of Gossip Girl……are those kids even acting?
- Pete Wentz, who wear entirely too many rhinestones hoodies for my taste.
- Nick Cannon, Mariah Carey’s….husband? Like I said, she’s an alien.
- Sophia Bush
- P.Diddy and Danity Kane
- Rev Run!
- and…..Nick Lachey.

The Cipriani Clan rules the scene.
At any of these Cipriani joints there is definitely going to be some celeb action:

Rainbow Room
30 Rockefeller Plaza
New York – N.Y. 10112
110 East 42nd Street
New York -N.Y. 10017
Example:
Had run into Helena Bonham Carter and Tim Burton when I was at Cipriani, I would have thanked Tim for unfailingly, giving Johnny Depp creepy roles that add to his astronomical sexiness. I would have personally bought Mr. Burton dinner.

Sorry kids, invite only.
So here’s the deal- celebrities are snobs. End of story.
So when a place like Beatrice Inn is created that runs off word of mouth and invite only, it only boosts the starlets egos to be invited, or to find a way to get invited.
It’s also no secret that in these types of joints celebs get to act out in their most divaesque, bratty way. This is afterall where Ms. Lindsay Lohan spouted off at Ashley Olsen when Ashley said hello to her “girlfriend?” Samantha Ronson, by saying, “‘Get your 15-year-old ’Full House’ a ** away from my girlfriend!!”
Wow Lindsay, classy.
Other celeb sightings:
- Shia Lebouf ( you know, the snarky Even Stevens kid)
- Chloe Sevigny (it’s her brothers restaurant)
- James McAvoy
- Topher Grace
- The Olsen Twins
- Josh Harnett
- Brody Jenner (The hot one from The Hills)
- Zach Braff
This is why these types of clubs are wack:
Let me tell you a little story….one time, not so long ago, I needed to get into Bungalow 8 for, “business” so I used some connections I have, etc. and even with all the effort, was still unable to get into Bungalow 8. Thats my story. Don’t they know I’m a blogstar?
You know the food is good when....
Madonna eats there.
Madonna is the mecca of celebrity status, Madonna isn’t even a person…she’s a brand. So when I heard Madonna liked Solo, I knew it was a winner. Not to mention, Top Chef winner from season 3 Chef Hung, is the head chef! Have your own Top Chef experience!!
Chef Hung’s meal for Madonna:
Banana Brulee Tart coconut covered macadamia’s
Celeb Sightings:
Padma Lakshmi from Top Chef, Martha Stewart, Jennifer Garner, Ben Stiller, BORAT!, and Rachel Weisz.
