You chose to read about it, and then you chose to complain about what you read. Now I'm complaing about what you wrote. The difference is that the bubblegum thing in the Inqy wasn't exactly on the front page, it was in the features section, and then you decided to read the story. Next time just take ownership of your actions

Word from a eric dane friend/fan has it that the majority of the film is set else where and they are trying to pass off the small amount of footage shot here as new york city. Doubtful with a large BROAD STREET LINE sign behind them.

Doobage, Uarts? Same Here. Same Time. What Major?

My sister saw Ashton Kutcher at the Whole Foods a couple nights ago. She said he was two people behind her in line and she tried to look to see if it was really him and he kept turning away. She said a lot of people were pushing their carts by him, trying to get a look and he would always turn and look in the other direction.

Poor thing, haha.

It must be so annoying to be famous some times.

Exactly..and you can't say people in NYC don't care either - hasn't anyone heard of the Gawker Stalker map? people constantly write in to say where they just spotted some celebrity or another all over the city. And we're talking about a lot of the same people who make it a part of their normal routine to visit restaurants, nightclubs and bars (in LA and NYC) that they know are going to be swamped with papperazzi so I'm not feeling too bad for Ashton in Whole Foods.

Last night in NYC, Jennifer Anniston went to the paparazzi restaurant hangout the Waverly Inn, owned by Vanity Fair's Gaydon Carter, with John Mayer. No doubt when she comes to Philly she gets shy again, unless she's with John Mayer, who wants to take their relationship public. When he dated Jessica Simpson they were dogged constantly, I am surprised he surfaced with yet another photographed babe and that they would go to that restaurant.

Yesterday I had to read that Parker Posey's dog likes to chew bubble gum. Are you friggn kidding me? Leave the girl and her dog alone for goodness sake. These people wouldnt get a second look if they were filming in NYC,Chicago,Toronto but here it just goes on and on and on blah blah blah.

Please no more movies here, for the love of God.
If you had any taste in movies, you'd know that Parker Posey is in just about all of Christopher Guest's movies, which are HILARIOUS, not to mention Dazed and Confused.

And seriously, you're the one reading about them. I had no idea her dog liked to chew bubble gum until I heard it from you.

Celebs are fun and intriguing... and believe me, they make a big deal about them everywhere... that's how perezhilton.com and thesuperficial.com and idontlikeyouthatway.com and all of the numerous celebrity blogs out there make a living...

So get with it... these guys get their photos from paparazzi and regular citizens... just about everywhere...

Question:

Why would they do that when the film is based on Philadelphia Inquirer columnist John Grogan's best-selling autobiographical book about his relationship with his pooch?

They wouldn't move his life to New York, would they?
