Local rock historian/DJ/promoter DJ Deejay (pictured) has lived here longer than you. He’s seen some things. And in response to our Someone Famous Went Somewhere Once posts, DJ took it upon himself today to begin cataloging every someone famous he’s ever seen somewhere once. Now, in his own words, is the first installment of DJ [...]

Philadelphia Flower Show Designer Sam Lemheney (tan jacket) and PHS President Elect Drew Becher lead Midler on a tour of the 2010 Philadelphia International Flower Show,
“Passport to the World,” on March 3.
Oh, look, there’s Bette Midler at the Flower Show. We wonder: Do people under 25 even know who Bette Midler is? Here’s a history [...]

A friend of mine was told by a friend of hers, who was told by an allegedly reputable source (“yo this kid’s never wrong about anything!!”) that Snooki was supposed to make an appearance at Geno’s [Wednesday] from 6-8. I don’t know if Philebrity follows all things Jersey Shore in a semi-ironic kind of way [...]

Unless you’re in Monaco, where a bit of roulette is just something you do whilst waiting for Grace Kelly to put on her face, a casino is almost by definition a sad place. It doesn’t matter how loud you make the bloops and the bleeps and the bells — every moment that passes in a [...]

Philebrity received numerous tips last night that, after his show at the Merriam Theater, comedian David Cross stopped into venerable Philly dive McGlinchey’s for a drink or two. To which we responded: We’ve been to McGlinchey’s and seen the clientele — How can you even tell which one is David Cross? And then, the immediate [...]

A tipster tells us that none other Phils pitcher/St. Joe’s Alumnus (THE HAWK WILL NEVER DIE!) Jamie Moyer was spotted having lunch yesterday at… Mrs. K’s. Now, before you start scratching your head, wondering which kitschy Stephen Starr luncheonette this is, back up; it’s Mrs. K’s. As in “Mrs. K’s Koffee Shop.” And you know, [...]

Monday night, a friend and I decided to head over to Jose Garces’ Village Whiskey. While we were enjoying our lovely meal, we notice that we were in fact sharing oxygen with the hotness that is Jayson Werth (even in an unfortunate Ed Hardy hat). After we finished hyperventilating, we also notice that his dinner [...]

I had lunch at the Gypsy Saloon in the borough of West Conshohocken, PA around 11:45 am today, and Pat Croce was at the table next to me, along with what I assume was a business partner/employee. A third man stopped by their table to say “hello” and discuss recent business plans, investments, family [...]

Are celebrity comings and goings your bag, baby? How nice for you. Check out Philebrity’s Someone Famous Went Somewhere Once category.

We’ve been closely tracking (stalking) the goings on related to the mysterious Untitled James L. Brooks Project, and now we are hearing about One More Place Paul Rudd Has Been. A reader, who also happens to be a proud former math major, wrote to tell us that Paul is currently filming inside the David Rittenhouse [...]

So let it begin! As the summer washes away — good riddance, you old fool — like a groundhog in reverse, so let us herald fall’s intent by the first of what we can only assume will be many, many Tony Danza sightings. Seeing as how Tony is residing in the Piazza At Schmidt’s while [...]

Says our reader: “Hey guys. Last night I saw the actor Domenick Lombardozzi at Ladder 15. He played the character “Herc” on The Wire and also “Dom” on Entourage. He told me he was in town shooting a movie with Reese Witherspoon and Owen Wilson.” Which makes us wonder about a couple of things: Are [...]

Hopefully, they’ve got a cot in the back for Owen Wilson, who was spotted last night again at Parc with manfriend Paul Rudd. Ol’ Eli Cash must really like the baguettes. Meanwhile, says our tipster — we swear these have all come from different people, it’s bizarre — “Arthur Kade was in the bathroom primping, [...]

According to our tipster — note: it’s not the Arthur Kade Dirty Glass Girl, though we really do need to check in with her to see how things worked out — Owen Wilson and Wayne Rogers both dined at Parc on Rittenhouse Square last night, though not together. That is all. But as we started [...]

Says our reader: “Spotted: Reid from The Bachelorette @ Tria on 18th and Sansom… looking very tan and still glowing from his 15 minutes…” which prompts the obvious question: Does Someone Who Was Only Famous Once (Very Briefly) qualify as Someone Famous Who Went Somewhere Once, even if the place where they went was somewhere [...]

You’ve gotta wonder: Just who (or, rather, how many people) did G Lounge have to blow to become the ne plus ultra of Philly’s Douche Culture and Somebodies Famous Who Went Somewhere Once? With Strongbox out of the way for the moment, G is having its way with you, all over you, right now: There’s [...]

Neil Patrick Harris and Amy Sedaris were both in Sugar Moms last night in Old City. They had come for a party after finishing shooting on a film and were two of the nicest people ever. They talked at length with anyone who approched them, took multiple pictures with people, and drank rounds [...]

Greetings! And welcome to our new post category entitled “Someone Famous Went Somewhere Once,” where we dump all the tips about so-and-so being at whatever restaurant, and so on, because even though we really don’t care about this shit — famous people do have to eat and drink, you know — we know that some [...]
