New York Toilets

JUST ANOTHER DAY ON THE STREETS OF NEW YORK

Something peculiar happened in the Meatpacking District of New York today. Our photographer couldn’t figure out WHY, but people (actors we assume) were seen sitting on toilets with their pants down on the middle of a busy sidewalk. The people were dressed as taxi drivers, police officers, students, and shoppers, and since it was the middle of the afternoon, passers-by were very curious. Does anyone out there know what this is all about?

DANIEL DAY-LEWIS GETS LOST IN THE CROWD

#danieldaylewis #janetcharlton

New Yorkers, stuffing themselves at some sort of street fair in Tribeca, don’t seem to notice that this year’s Best Actor Oscar winner (for “Lincoln”) is walking among them. Daniel Day-Lewis is strolling by, with newspaper in hand.

Fashion Meg Ryan New York

MEG RYAN HAS THE NEW YORK SENSIBILITY

One thing about Meg Ryan – she doesn’t throw away her money on trendy designer clothes. She wears the same pair of sensible shoes almost every day – no $1200 Louboutins for her. But everything she wears is totally hip, cool, and functional, and top quality. She has a very downtown sensibility. No doubt that’s one of the reasons she left Brentwood for Manhattan. Her little girl Daisy seems to be thriving in the big city too.

David Bowie Long Time No See New York

DAVID BOWIE HAILS HIS OWN CABS

#davidbowie #janetcharlton

All we know is, we can never get enough of David Bowie. He seems so reclusive and it’s always a treat to see him. He’s sold around 140 million records, but hasn’t performed live since 2006. Bowie, 65, just seems to live quietly with his wife Iman and their 12 year old daughter Alexandria – only occasionally venturing out for a museum or charity event. Today he was “Under Pressure” to grab a cab at rush hour in New York, and he DID manage to do so.

KIM ZOLCIAK AND MEG RYAN: IT TAKES ALL KINDS

Photo Credit: Pacific Coast News

Flamboyant Kim Zolciak of The Real Housewives of Atlanta turns heads in New York as she walks into NBC studios. That loud, skin-tight shiny dress (she IS pregnant) and huge wig sets her apart from subtle and practical New Yorkers. She definitely looks like an out-of-towner. Meg Ryan, on the other hand fits right in with the locals as she talks on the phone and shops in Soho. Meg is currently filming “Lives of the Saints.”

Jude Law is in New York filming “The Bitter Pill” and he demonstrated to his visiting kids Rudy and Iris how to hail a taxi. They spent the afternoon shopping the stores and street vendors in Soho and Jude was all smiles until he spotted photographers. At one point, he left the kids and walked over and had a few harsh words for the paparazzi. Then the family jumped into a cab and left.

Andy Warhol New York Statue

ANDY WARHOL STATUE IN NEW YORK: IT’S ABOUT TIME

If anybody deserves a statue in New York, it’s Andy Warhol. After all, he’s probably the most important American artist of the 20th century. The city had a life size figure of Andy installed near his factory studio in Union Square and not far from his favorite hang-out Max’s Kansas City. We’re not sure why the artist, Rob Pruitt, chose a chrome finish, but we love the fact that Andy is wearing his camera and holding a full shopping bag. Andy ALWAYS had a shopping bag – he stopped at all the thrift shops on his way to work and collected whatever tickled his fancy.

Andrej Pejic Fashion Week Gender Models New York New York Fashion Week

UNISEX MODEL ANDREJ PEJIC IS RAKING IN TWICE THE MONEY DURING NY FASHION WEEK

New York fashion week is even more fascinating this time around because one of the top models in BOTH male and female shows is 6’2” Andrej Pejic. Androgynous Andrej, 19, who was born in Bosnia and grew up in Australia, is booked in four women’s shows and five men’s shows! This makes him the first model to appear in New York fashion shows for BOTH genders. In his private life, Andrej wears both men’s and women’s clothes. He’s not a transgender or a sex change, just a male who can pass for a female supermodel. In the photos above he’s wearing Rihanna’s Grammy dress in the Jean Paul Gaultier Paris show, and also appears in men’s clothing for an English magazine.

JENNIFER ANISTON IS SHOPPING FOR A SWANKY NEW YORK PENTHOUSE

Now that Jennifer Aniston has her superfabulous Architectural Digest house completed in Los Angeles, she has turned her attention to New York. Like Barbra Streisand, Jen loves buying and re-doing new properties for herself. (Her pal Courteney Cox flips houses) According to the New York Post’s Jennifer Gould Keil, Jennifer took a long look at an 8.75 million dollar penthouse in the Village. Four years ago the place was priced at 14.5 million and it’s back on the market. It’s a 5 bedroom 4 bath four level penthouse with a keyed elevator and stairs. 17 ft ceilings, a real fireplace and a landscaped roof garden add to the charm. Jennifer’s thinking it over.
