Slog - Comments on Celebrity I Saw Him (And Walked With Him, And Learned About Tanning From Him) http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/09/celebrity_i_saw_him_and_walked_with_him So I was walking down Pine Street this morning, on my way to catch the train to Portland, and off in the distance I see an orange face peeking out of a white hoodie, crossing the street between Chapel and Bauhaus. I know sightings of Blayne from Project Runway are a dime a dozen in Seattle these days, but I this was my first. I walked faster.

Top Chef is where it is at and they are filming the 5th season in New York!!!!

Walking wearily though the city and not having gotten laid is worse.

but it was way lamer; Michael Medved lurking around the Dicks on Lower Queen Anne...or, he might have just been coming from seeing something liberal and foul at the Uptown.

Can you imagine trying to get all that spray on self tanner out of your sheets and pillow. Now I have to wonder how much of the boy is orange, does he spray on in the nude? Orange peene is not.

Medved is commonly spotted but never stalked. I remember what Dan said about Medved - something like 'if I didn't know better, I'd say he's pretty gay'. Eccch!

I'm not saying he makes me coffee all the time. I'm not saying he was gonna cut my hair for me but i got impatient and went to another person. I'm not gonna say he is the only person I've ever known on a reality show cause Willard (the token old guy) on one of those Survivors (which season? fuck if i know... but first kicked off of course) once felt me up at work. I'm not going to brag about all that stuff.... not me.
