Beijing Olympics Celebrity Watch: August 10

Regular contributor Fletch suggested I create a “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. here’s the latest:

  • Pierre Cardin - Maxim’s (the 08-08-08 Olympics are a perfect spot for this octogenarian)
  • Oliver Robinson - Beach Volleyball (I saw him carry three cups of beer up the stairs without spilling a drop)
  • George Bush - Beach Volleyball
  • Rubert Murdoch, Wendy Deng, Quincy Jones, Jared Leto - Commune by the Wall
  • Original Cui Jian guitarist Eddie - Nashville (the Saturday night band rocks)
  • Pop singer Zya - All Star
  • Tom Brokaw, Matt Lauer - Olympic village
  • Stanley Ho - Financial Street (where else would he be?)

    My colleague in the office sat a few seats from David Schwimmer on the weekend. Apparently this guy used to be in an American sitcom several years ago, called “Friends”. She and a South African friend then found themrselves talking to a South African dude named Marius. “What are you doing here?” they asked. “Entertaining some clients,” was the reply.

    Turns out he was Marius Kloppers, CEO of BHP Billiton.
