Beijing Olympics Celebrity Watch: August 7

Regular contributor Fletch suggested I create a daily “Celebrity Watch” page so we can, you know, post about celebrities we see during the Olympics and any unintentional comedy that ensues from meeting them. In fact, Fletch says he’ll lead the daily (and nightly) charge – last night he met Jared Leto. For my part, here are the celebrities I met at last night’s opening of Bling:

- Stacy Q (20 percent sure it was her)

- Kim Jong Il (well, at least his hair, on three different people)

- Nicholas Carre

Trust me, this project is going to pick up steam. And Fletch tells me he’ll be out and about tonight, so look for an update tomorrow. Finally, feel free to leave comments about your own sightings of celebrities and/or photos with them (it is mandatory that you be making the peace sign).

    I also heard that Olympic Gold medalists Nadia Comaneci and Ian Thorpe were present at the Adidas corporate event at the Kerry Centre (August 7).

    This should not be confused with the Adidas after party that followed.
