Loews Hollywood Hotel from Britney Spears’ “Everytime” Music Video
‘ I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – I hate change, especially when it comes to filming locations. So I was devastated when the Renaissance Hollywood Hotel, one of my favorite Tinseltown lodgings and frequent film star, was sold a couple of years ago, rebranded as a Loews, and extensively remodeled. Though…

Inez’s House from “Chef”
‘ My favorite movie of 2014 was, hands down, The Other Woman. Running a close second was Chef, which I am guessing many of you have not heard of. Sadly, it was a bit of a sleeper. Take my word for it, though, the flick is fabulous. As are its locations! But more on that…

Poolside Getaway
‘ My parents surprised us by booking a little poolside family getaway for the week, so I will not have any new posts this week aside from my usual Los Angeles magazine column on Thursday (it’”‘”‘s a really exciting one – I’”‘”‘m telling the story of my favorite only-in-L.A. moment!). I will be laptoping it…

Hilton Sonoma Wine Country – Where the Cast of “Scream” Stayed During Filming
‘ I typically begin compiling notes on a location and roughly outlining a post weeks before I hit publish. Today’s article, about the Hilton Sonoma Wine Country, where the cast and crew of Scream stayed during the 1996 film’s 55-day shoot, is no different. Sadly though, devastation struck shortly after I penned that preliminary edit. …

The Zeta House from House Bunny
‘ Last week, thanks to fellow stalker Owen, I was able to stalk the Zeta House from the 2008 movie House Bunny. Owen actually found this location without ever even having seen the film, which takes some pretty major stalking skills, I tell you!!!! He happened to notice the house while watching a House Bunny preview and, because of its unique…
