Spring is out in Paris – and so are the celebrities. 

Famous faces love hanging out in Paris because people more or less leave them alone. They’re not thronged with screaming crowds as they sip a cappuccino at a sidewalk café or go to the local bookstore. 

Sometimes the celebrities even come to you. Take my friend’s wife, for example. We capped off their champagne-fueled French honeymoon with a swanky dinner on the Place Vendôme and drinks at the Ritz. Several cocktails later, we realized that Wifey was taking an awfully long time in the bathroom.

Seems that she had taken a wrong turn and decided to take a little snooze on one of the overstuffed couches in the hotel’s main hallway. “And then some guy walked by and called his friends to come over and laugh at me,” she hiccupped as we escorted her to a taxi. “Look – there he is.” 

“Some guy” turned out to be Clive Owen.
