Villa Sorriso – The Restaurant Where Michael Jackson’s “Celebration of Life” Reception Was Held
‘ One location that I stalked quite a while back, but, for whatever reason, have yet to blog about is Villa Sorriso Ristorante – the Italian eatery where the Jackson family hosted the September 3, 2009 “Celebration of Life” reception for pop star Michael Jackson following his burial at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale. …

Cabo Cantina from “Annie Hall”
‘ The May 2013 issue of Los Angeles magazine featured a short column about a new documentary called The Source Family which detailed the life of a World War II vet turned spiritual guru named Jim Baker (not to be confused with televangelist Jim Bakker), who became most famous for founding both The Source Family…

The One&Only Palmilla Resort
‘ The Grim Cheaper and I just returned from our Cabo San Lucas honeymoon this past Tuesday evening and, let me tell you, we couldn’t have been sadder to say good-bye to the place! We had an amazing time in Mexico – relaxing, swimming, sunbathing, and, of course, stalking. And while I have plans to…

Mary’s House from “All About Steve”
‘ If you listened to critics, you probably think All About Steve has no redeeming qualities whatsoever. You’d be wrong, though.

The Grill on the Alley from “The Holiday”
‘ This past weekend, while wandering through my local Target with the Grim Cheaper, I happened to spot a DVD of fave movie The Holiday on sale for $3.99! When I saw that the special features included a commentary with director Nancy Meyers and a making-of featurette, I just about flipped my lid and immediately…

Anoakia Mansion from “Doppelganger”
‘ There’s no denying that Doppelganger is a pretty horrible movie. But part of the fun of the Halloween season is watching ridiculously terrible horror flicks from years past – and stalking their locations, of course. I had long been on the hunt for the psychiatric institution from the 1993 thriller and was given a…

The Whisky a Go Go
‘ I’ve never really been into music. As I have mentioned before, if it’s not sung by Michael Bublé, Britney Spears or Michael Jackson, or was not a top ‘80s hit, chances are I haven’t heard it. But my good friend Kim from Kentucky is a huge music buff, so when she and our good…

What Would You Do If I Sang Out Of Tune . . .
‘ While I was growing up, my mom was completely obsessed with Kevin Arnold and the TV show I remember sitting down together as a family to watch the show every week and lamenting over the trials and tribulations of Winnie Cooper and Kevin Arnold’”‘”‘s teen romance. So when I found the address of the…
