  • Becky Bloomwood Takes on the El Capitan!

    Becky Bloomwood Takes on the El Capitan!

    ‘ I have long been obsessed with the “Confessions of a Shopaholic” book series authored by British novelist Sophie Kinsella (aka Madeline Wickham).  So obsessed in fact that about five years ago when I heard that Hollywood was optioning a screenplay based on the novels, I wrote to Sophie pitching myself for the movie’”‘”‘s lead role. I must say that I…

  • The “Lights Out” House

    The “Lights Out” House

    ‘ “Lights Out Cast Accidentally Cursed the House Where they Filmed.”  So blared a headline from an Entertainment Weekly article about the 2016 horror film.  As you can imagine, the words had me drooling.  I first learned about the movie back in January from fellow stalker “sparklesnow” who left a comment on one of my…

  • The Closer Duplex

    The Closer Duplex

    ‘ As I have mentioned before, I am a huge fan of TNT’”‘”‘s crime series The Closer.  As is my whole family, actually.  So, a few weeks ago when my mom challenged me to locate Brenda and Fritz’”‘”‘s duplex apartment building from the series, I accepted the challenge!  🙂  And it didn’”‘”‘t take me long to find it at…

  • The “‘Til There Was You” Apartment Building

    The “‘Til There Was You” Apartment Building

    ‘ Another day, another elusive location found thanks to Mike – God of Stalking – over at MovieShotsLA.  🙂  I have been challenged several times over the past few months to find the beautiful courtyard apartment building featured in the 1997 movie ‘”‘”‘Til There Was You. Unfortunately I had never seen the movie before and my local…

  • John Adams Middle School from “Heathers”

    John Adams Middle School from “Heathers”

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper is a celebrity magnet.  Literally everywhere he goes, he runs into someone famous.  It’s maddening because 90% of these encounters occur when I am not with him.  Like the time he stopped by a Starbucks while on his way to a business meeting and saw Keanu Reeves sitting outside.  Or the…

  • The Los Angeles Theatre Alley from “Coyote Ugly”

    The Los Angeles Theatre Alley from “Coyote Ugly”

    ‘ You won’t typically find me frequenting back alleys in downtown Los Angeles.  But there is one that I just can’t get enough of.  My good friend Mike, from MovieShotsLA, pointed it out to me many years ago during a daylong DTLA stalking venture.  While driving through the Theatre District, he pulled over near what…

  • Madeline’s Real Estate Office from “Big Little Lies”

    Madeline’s Real Estate Office from “Big Little Lies”

    ‘ I try to keep things positive on this blog, but, man, Sunday night’s Big Little Lies finale was an epic disappointment!  The entire season was hugely lackluster, truth be told, which is especially frustrating considering the outright perfection of Season 1.  I will contend that the first few episodes started out semi-promising, but the…

  • Meet Me At 3rd and Fairfax!

    Meet Me At 3rd and Fairfax!

    ‘ So the other night, while my mom and I were walking through the Farmers Market after dinner, I told her to keep her eyes peeled for celebs.  “Here???” my mom asked me in disbelief pointing to the numerous outdoor tables and metal folding chairs.  “Yes!”, I told her.  “No, here????” she asked me again.  LOL  She could not…

    Happy Labor Day

    ‘ I am taking the day off from blogging today to celebrate Labor Day with my family in Palm Springs, but I will be back tomorrow with a whole new post.  I hope all of my fellow stalkers are enjoying a fabulous three-day weekend! Until next time, Happy Stalking! ‘
