I've seen a few celebrities around Toronto. I cashed out Bif Naked a bunch of years ago when I worked at a bookstore. She bought a home decorating magazine. No one else in the store recognized who she was, and after she left I told my manager and he ran out into the parking lot and dragged her back into the store. She was really nice all things considered.

Another time I cashed out Greg Nori of Treble Charger. He bought a few books, nothing too exciting.


About two years ago I was crossing the street at Queen/Spadina and saw Carlo Rota. He was on his phone and with his assistant. I waved to him, and he looked at me, then looked at his assistant and rolled his eyes. Douchebag. It wasn't like I was trying to interrupt his conversation, or anything. I just waved hello.


I also saw Jim Carrey years ago at the bookstore. He was at the magazine stand across from the cash desk I was at for about two hours reading magazines that he had no intention of buying.

The best two celebrity almost sightings I had were during the TIFF in Toronto. I was in my office doing paperwork. I was bitter I missed out!
The first, and funniest was Viggo Mortensen. He was in the music/dvd section and he looked homeless and had a dufflebag. He was putting hundreds of dollars worth of merchandise in there so our security stopped him. His response was, "Don't you know who I am?" to which the security guards responded "Some homeless dude?" Viggo wasn't pleased, he showed them his ID, walked over, bought the movies and walked out in a huff.

The other was Kevin Smith. He was awesome and joked around with the employees. He then wrote out his top 10 favourite movies on a piece of paper. Kevin Smith <3 I remember laughing later because #1 and #2 on the list were Mallrats and Chasing Amy. :D
