after half a year of celebrity encounters that have amounted to little more than me yelling, “hey, i recognize you from that movie or tv show!” i’ve decided that it’s about time i actually get to know the celebrities i share this beautiful city with. i need to hit the streets, talk to them, get to see what they’re truly like behind their big/small screen personas. what makes them tick? and, more importanly, what bothers them?

so here it is, the result of weeks of grueling interviews with hollywood hot shots…

celebrity pet peeves:


  • michael jackson: “one word… pedophilejokes.”
  • dennis haskins: “when my closest friends call me dennis has-been.”
  • mario lopez: “i didn’t steal your pen, buddy, and, honestly, not returning things is a big pet peeve of mine.”

  • tom cruise: “yeah, i ride, so what? fuck you!”
    translation: motorcycle helmet use laws.
  • dakota fanning: “fake people.”
  • tom arnold: “my ex-wife.” (big laughs)
  • charlie sheen: “hearing myself talk about my problems with drugs and prostitutes for the millionth time.”
  • j.d. salinger: ”...”
  • harvey fierstein: “people who always need to be the center of attention. hey, look at me! whoopdidoo! dance, dance, dance!”
  • dan aykroyd: “people who forget to turn their cell phones off at the movies because, you know, going to the movies is a great way to eat up some of that free time i’ve been having too much of lately.”
  • woody allen, jerry seinfeld, larry david, etc.: “anti-semitism.”
  • samuel l. jackson: “people who like to sleep in on weekends, and drivers who don’t use their blinkers.”
  • drew carey: “ryan stiles.”
  • ryan stiles: “that is the funniest man in america, ladies and gentlemen, and what was your question again?”

check back for part two in a month or so. now for the question everyone’s probably asking themselves: “does he really know tom cruise?” the answer: “sure, why not?”

    Kato Kaelin, hates when people ask him “did the Juice do it?” or if I don’t get him the right latte, look him directly in the eye, or talk to the girls I have to drive home for him when he is done fouling them up. Also the fact that Robert Blake got off and he didn’t get to testify, but mostly when people don’t recognize him.

    “girls” is plural?

    Girls as in more than one girl that I am not allowed to interaction with. It makes for better copy, or is this grammar lesson. Is that it Tony do you want to throw down.
