Wonk’d: No Summer’s High, No Warm July

Friday, July 7th, 2006

It’s a good week to be a teenage girl in DC. Sex In The City’s Chris Noth was hanging out downtown, and Jordan Catalano Jared Leto was, like, totally in Dupont, or something.

Stevie Wonder was also seen, but he didn’t see you, and neither did his security guard. These and more of the hoi-polloi that we lovingly call “famous for DC,” after the jump.

Wonk’d: Asshole Cab Drivers Are The Great Equalizers

Friday, June 30th, 2006

It’s a full service edition of Wonk’d, as Bill Frist stands Chrst-like in front of a three-way mirror for a suit fitting, and Jenna and Barbara Bush get spa treatments. LL Cool J and Wolf Blitzer take to the city’s fine dining establishments, while Dick Cheney and Ashlee Simpson stick to the ‘burbs.

Different strokes for different folks. While Teresa Heinz Kerry might not think twice about dropping six bills on dinner, Ruth Bader Ginsburg shops at Safeway like the rest of us. That, and Sam Donaldson has to bribe a cabbie to get picked up, just like we do.

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.
