    Happy Labor Day!

    ‘ I would like to wish a very happy Labor Day to all of my fellow stalkers!  I hope everyone is enjoying a fabulous three-day weekend with loved ones. ‘

  • Dwight’s Bar from “Burlesque”

    Dwight’s Bar from “Burlesque”

    ‘ One Burlesque filming location that I had been trying to track down for what seems like forever now was Dwight’s Bar, which was featured in the movie’s opening scene as the supposed small-town, Iowa-area watering hole where Ali (aka Christina Aguilera) worked.  Even though the bar only appeared in one very brief, blink-and-you’ll-miss-it establishing…

  • The “Psycho” Car Dealership

    The “Psycho” Car Dealership

    ‘ While putting together a list of spooky-type locales to stalk during my Haunted Hollywood month a couple of weeks ago, I decided to peruse through fave book James Dean Died Here: The Locations of America’s Pop Culture Landmarks by Chris Epting for a little inspiration.  And, let me tell you, I just about died…

  • I Have Got to Get Me One of These!

    I Have Got to Get Me One of These!

    ‘ While driving this weekend, I happened to pass by this interesting contraption and just had to stop and take a pic! LOL! Apparently “Dan, the Handyman” is willing to rent out his boom-lift to paparazzi for picture taking at those hard-to-stalk locations. This device would have come in handy when I stalked Brad and…

  • Scream – One More Time

    Scream – One More Time

    ‘ Many, many years ago – back when I first started college, in fact – I did a little stalking of my fave horror movie, . I guess you can say that I have been pretty much obsessed with that movie ever since it premiered back in 1996. At the time I was still living…

    Viva Cantina from “The Girls Next Door”

    ‘ Each May, my girl Miss Pinky Lovejoy, of the Thinking Pink blog, and I have a standing lunch date to celebrate her birthday.  We usually hit up Sizzler (‘cause we’re fancy like that!), but this year she requested to dine at Viva Cantina in Burbank – a place I had long wanted to stalk…

  • The “Why Him?” Gate House

    The “Why Him?” Gate House

    ‘ Location managers can be such tricksters!  And there’s pretty much nothing I love more than uncovering the various fabrications that go into a particular locale.  Such was the case with the gate house supposedly situated at the entrance to the massive manse belonging to millionaire video game creator Laird Mayhew (James Franco) in Why…

  • The Georgian Hotel from “BH90210”

    The Georgian Hotel from “BH90210”

    ‘ While I was initially on the fence as to my feelings regarding BH90210, I have to say the meta-revival has really grown on me.  Though I did not particularly love the pilot, by episode 4, I was absolutely enthralled and am so saddened that Season 1 will be coming to a close this week. …

  • The Beethoven House

    The Beethoven House

    ‘ Got a challenge from Debbie a few weeks back to find the house used in the 1992 movie Beethoven and its many subsequent sequels.  Debbie had just read my post on the Camden house from the television series 7th Heaven  and was struck by how similar it looked to the home used in the…

    New Interview with “Occidental” Magazine

    ‘ Be sure to check out a recent interview I did with Occidental magazine about the filming of Clueless.  There’s even a locations quiz at the end!  You can read The Clueless Guide to Occidental College here and The Ultimate Guide to Clueless Movie Locations in Los Angeles here (Part II is here), both of which…
