Dog Flea Market Paris Jackson Weight

WAS THAT PARIS JACKSON WHO JUST WALKED BY?

She’s been compared to Kurt Cobain with her grunge fashion, but Paris Jackson, 25, probably makes more money as a model than she does from her music so far. Despite her fame, she’s able to walk around Melrose Avenue and browse at the Fairfax flea market alone and unrecognized. And she has lost a LOT of weight. Of course she brought her service dog Koa with her and he has a sign on his harness that says DO NOT PET, so we’re guessing she feels quite safe. Just looking at her, you’d never guess she was worth a hundred million dollars. Smart girl.

Daughter Emme Flea Market Jennifer Lopez Vintage

JENNIFER LOPEZ’S DAUGHTER HAS A MIND OF HER OWN

Jennifer Lopez took her vintage-loving daughter Emme (blue shorts) to the Hollywood flea market and there’s so much to look at that she attracted very little attention. (We have to point out that Jennifer’s choice of footwear for a flea market was far from ideal) Emme loves vintage rock n’ roll t-shirts and used jeans, and she actually looks happier rummaging at the flea market than she did shopping the designer stores like Gucci and Prada in Italy with her mom..

Catherine Deneuve Flea Market Venice Film Festival

CATHERINE DENEUVE HAS NO PLANS TO RETIRE


Catherine Deneuve has always been one of the busiest (and best looking) actors in show business. (She was the Charlize Theron of her day) Since her first film in 1962 she’s been making several films every year adding up to hundreds- and she’s still LOVES to work. She just finished one movie, stopped at the Venice Film Festival to pick up her Lifetime Achievement Award, and now she’s off to Belgium to start on her next movie called Funny Birds. It’s an English language movie set in New Jersey, filming in, of all places, Belgium. Years ago, I ran into her at an LA flea market when we both reached for the same mid-century modern vase. I was shocked to look up and see who was next to me, and she was very talkative and friendly. (Neither of us bought the vase) It’s always fun to run into a huge movie star at a flea market!

Flea Market Melissa McCarthy Shopping

MELISSA MCCARTHY IS NOT ABOVE BARGAIN HUNTING

Melissa McCarthy got up early Sunday for the Long Beach flea market, and she must be a serious shopper because she brought her own cart. Not sure why, but Southern California flea markets are among the best in the world. Melissa pulled out a baseball cap and a fanny pack and browsed every booth. By the end of the day her cart was packed with vintage clothing, rugs, tchotchkes (home décor) art, and at least one pair of shoes. A good time was had by all

Flea Market Lynn Yaeger Michael Musto

STREETS OF NEW YORK: MICHAEL MUSTO AND LYNN YAEGER

We LOVE Hollywood, but seeing this photo of two New York characters makes us very sentimental. The red haired woman with the cupids bow lips is a very famous and clever fashion writer, Lynn Yaeger. She wrote about fashion for The Village Voice for 30 years and now contributes to Vogue, the New York Times etc. Her companion with the bicycle is Michael Musto, who wrote about NY nightlife for the Village Voice for many years and appeared on The Gossip Show on the E! channel with us.(Not to mention tons of other talk shows) We all love flea markets and years ago Michael and I went to a New York flea market and I tried to talk him into buying matching outfits for the Gossip Show. He wasn’t thrilled with the sweaters I suggested.

Flea Market Rome Sarah Jessica Parker Shopping

SARAH JESSICA PARKER IS HAPPY TO BE A HIGH AND LOW END SHOPPER

127754PCN_Sarah09cut

Sarah Jessica Parker doesn’t only visit the expensive designer shops while she’s in Rome – she also patronizes the local flea markets! (A girl after our own heart!) Above, bargain hunters were surprised to run into the “Sex & the City” star at the Via Sannio outdoor market in the city. She enthusiastically rummaged through the clothing, tried on several vintage hats, and examined leather handbags. How she shops in those high heels remains a mystery.

OLIVIA WILDE THINKS SHE’S ALONE NOW

You never know who you’re going to see at the Melrose Trading Post flea market in West Hollywood on Sunday morning. Once we found ourselves browsing in the same vintage clothing booth as Catherine Deneuve! The place is usually packed with pretty girls and guys with their dogs, so Olivia Wilde was able to rummage around pretty much unnoticed- except for a smart paparazzi.

Flea Market Kathy Griffin Money Yard Sale

KATHY GRIFFIN WORKS HARD FOR THE MONEY AT THE FLEA MARKET

The Melrose Trading Post flea market at the Fairfax High School parking lot was a wild scene Sunday when Kathy Griffin and her “D-List” cameras set up shop. Apparently Kathy decided to unload some of the furniture she got for free for her huge house and she filled up two booths with assorted stuff. The week before she emailed her friends and fans announcing her sale. She sold a huge sectional couch from her house and a ten foot tall mirror. Not to mention the stove-top above. Lots of her old clothes were available (she’s lost a lot of weight) plus numerous tchochkes, including gifts from other celebrities. Kathy had four or five bulging musclemen in black leather chaps hefting the heavy items. She was a tough negotiator, but left with a pocketful of CASH and another episode of her show.

Flea Market Shopping Taylor Swift

TAYLOR SWIFT ISN’T ABOVE BARGAINING AT THE FLEA MARKET

We love a girl who has plenty of money and still loves to shop at the flea market! Taylor Swift, 19, turned heads at the Portobello Market in London simply because she’s striking to look at, but soon the camera phones started popping up. Taylor, along with her mom and friends, delighted in rummaging through antiques, vintage clothes, ethnic apparel, jewelry, and just plain junk – she lugged three huge shopping bags back to her hotel.
