So remember when I saw Natalie Portman in India? Apparently she was there for the filming of Wes Anderson's The Darjeeling Express. Scott and I went to see the movie last night. It was very interesting, especially since we were in the same region that it was filmed. I swear the opening scene train station was the one in Jaipur where we spent the night due to train delays. I also thought it was interesting because while in Jodhpur, Scott and I saw a picture of Bill Murry with shop owners (complete with frame and signature I believe) in a store on the corner of town. Was Bill Murry there too at the same time as Natalie Portman?
Another weird celebrity story. Scott and I went to The Gutter, a bar/bowling alley in Brooklyn with some friends Saturday night. While I was going outside to smoke I sense a presence stepping up next to me, and notice a little man in a plaid shirt lighting his cigarette. Lo and behold, there stands Frodo Baggins....yes, Elijah Wood.
You're trapped in a (temporarily) out of order elevator - who would you like to be trapped with?
Natalie Portman!!! She really is as beautiful in person and I can personally tell you this. I rubbed shoulders with her while in Jodhpur, India about 2 weeks ago. She was with a tall dark hair handsome man at the time, and she stopped to take a picture of a cow in the street. I caught a glance from her since I was the only non-Indian there at the market. I thought she would be taller in person, but she is tiny and had her dirty, short hair up dororthy style with a cute casual dress and white high top chucks on. Ahhh!!! I did not say anything to her because I did not want to be annoying, especially if she was on vacation. Besides, she probably likes not easily being recognised in a remote place like India (Bollywood rules the screen there). Now I could totally kick myself for not saying anything at all. The whole time all I can think to myself is "Be cool, and don't do anything stupid...like follow her" Well, I did follow her, but at a distance so that I would not raise any suspision (stalker me!!).
Funny that Scott totally missed the whole thing because he was at the fort on top of the hill!!!!
