  • The Otto Kahn and James Burden Mansions from “A Perfect Murder”

    The Otto Kahn and James Burden Mansions from “A Perfect Murder”

    ‘ For someone who is so well-versed in all things movie-related, I know very little about Old Hollywood – a fact my mom often admonishes me for.  Case in point – though A Perfect Murder has long been a favorite thriller, I have never seen Dial M for Murder, the 1954 Alfred Hitchcock masterpiece from…

    George Clooney’s Former Digs

    ‘ This past weekend, thanks to my new favorite book Movie Star Homes: The Famous to the Forgotten, I was able to stalk George Clooney‘”‘”‘s former Studio City house.  Now, to be completely honest, I am not a big fan of George Clooney.  I’”‘”‘ll admit that he’”‘”‘s OK-looking, but for some reason he just doesn’”‘”‘t do it…

    Mickey’s Diner from “The Mighty Ducks”

    ‘ I thought I’d give y’all a break from the myriad of Beautiful Girls locations that I’ve been blogging about as of late by dedicating today’s post to a very famous and historic St. Paul restaurant named Mickey’s Diner.  The diner is something of a Twin Cities landmark and pretty much every Native Minnesotan that…

  • The “Biggest Loser” Ranch

    The “Biggest Loser” Ranch

    ‘ This past weekend, I dragged my boyfriend out to Calabasas to stalk the King Gillette Ranch, otherwise known as The Biggest Loser  Ranch.  I found this location thanks to the couple we met while stalking the Adamson House a few weeks back.   Our new friends, who just recently got engaged, have been traipsing all over the Los Angeles…

  • The Chelsea Lately Show!

    The Chelsea Lately Show!

    ‘ My celeb obsession as of late is the E! Channel talk show Chelsea Lately and its comedienne host Chelsea Handler.  I only discovered the late night show about a month ago and I’”‘”‘d say it took me, oh, maybe one episode to become absolutely, one hundred percent addicted!  I honestly do not understand how I was not watching this show…

  • The Fairmont Miramar Santa Monica

    The Fairmont Miramar Santa Monica

    ‘ I don’”‘”‘t know about you all, but for the past few Sunday nights I have been absolutely glued to my television set watching Season 2 of the Ryan Seacrest produced Denise Richards: It’”‘”‘s Complicated.   And while I admit that the girl is an absolute train wreck and that her laugh is like fingernails on a chalkboard,…

  • Villapiano’s from “That Thing You Do!”

    Villapiano’s from “That Thing You Do!”

    ‘ One That Thing You Do! location that I had been trying to track down for what seemed like ages was the red-boothed Italian restaurant that stood in for Villapiano’s, the “spaghetti place out by the airport,” in the 1996 flick.  Thankfully, a couple of months ago, fellow stalker Owen, of the When Write Is…

  • Gray’s Papaya

    Gray’s Papaya

    ‘ I know I have blogged about this location briefly once before in my , but I think this is one location that is worthy of its very own blog post. So here goes. 🙂 I have long been a fan of Gray’”‘”‘s Papaya, a small hot dog stand/restaurant chain that was started in 1973…

  • The Skyline Residence – Jacob’s House from “Crazy, Stupid, Love.”

    The Skyline Residence – Jacob’s House from “Crazy, Stupid, Love.”

    ‘ Back in August, I received an email from a fellow stalker named Brandon who wanted to let me know that he had tracked down the ultra-modern abode where Jacob Palmer (aka Ryan Gosling) lived in Crazy, Stupid, Love.  At the time I had yet to see the movie, but added the address to my…
