Our Second Annual ‘Hopefully The Last White House Correspondents Post Ever’

You know the drill: the full list of sightings appears after the jump. And please continue to email us with your celebrity sightings, with “Wonk’d” or “Sighting” in the subject line. Thanks in advance for your delectable contributions.
