#SPOTTED: JENNIFER HUDSON IN TORONTO FOR “BLISS BALL” & “WE DAY”
I honestly don't believe my luck! Anyone who knows me well will know about my v. public J-Hud Obsession phase, which had me seeing Dreamgirls at the theatre seven times, not to mention the giant Poster on my wall, Fridge Magnets, Postcards, Deluxe Edition Soundtrack, Three-Disc Limited Edition DVD. The Mania went even further as I went on a mission to snatch-up every Magazine Cover featuring her during her Oscar Campaign. You name it, I had it. Things got so bad for a while that I ...

#FILMING: JIM CARREY & AARON JOHNSON FILMING “KICK-ASS 2” IN TORONTO
With filming set to wrap in a couple days for Kick-Ass 2, traffic came to a standstill this evening as filming blocked-off one of Toronto's busiest strips between Eaton Centre and Yonge x Gould. Onlookers gave Canadian Funnyman Jim Carrey a Hero's Welcome Home as he appeared barely recognizable as Colonel Stars, filming scenes with Co-Star Aaron Johnson who stars as the titular Protagonist. Also on- set tonight were Robert Emms who stars as Insect Man and Oakville's Lindy Booth as Night ...

Homeland Star Claire Danes was spotted out and about in Yorkville earlier today doing a quick grocery run at Pusateri's.

#TIFF12: MR. WILL & THE STARS OF TIFF 2012
TIFF 2012 was another great Festival. The fact that Toronto plays Host to such a prestigious and glamorous event is a true testament to the level of respect the Film Industry has for our City. I am so proud to be a Torontonian and proud of my fellow Torontonians who made it all happen, from the Hot Dog Vendors who fed those of us with no time for a sit-down meal, to the Celebrity Drivers and Security Guards for keeping everyone out of harm's way.
This year I met many Stars and my only regret ...

#TIFF12: ZAC EFRON LEAVES TORONTO
Zac Efron is one of the final Stars to leave Toronto with TIFF 2012 rapidly coming to an end tomorrow. The Actor was extremely late for his flight back to Los Angeles earlier today and still was nice enough to accommodate Fans with a Bodyguard keeping him safe from harm. With less than 40 minutes left till his flight, Efron successfully made it aboard his flight - prompting the question of whether or not Celebrities get preferential treatment if they are late to board.
Watch a Clip I captured ...

#TIFF12: ZAC EFRON IN TORONTO FOR “THE PAPERBOY”
Perhaps this can be called his most daring performance to date. Hearththrob Zac Efron reportedly was amazingly kind to Fans on the Red Carpet for his latest effort, The Paperboy at VISA Screening Room earlier this evening. I spotted the dapper Efron at the Afterparty for the Film where he made every effort to take Photos with Fans, but after a bit of pushing and shoving, everything had to be curtailed as he was ushered-in by a team of Bodyguards.
Efron spent a bit of time in New York ...

Precious Director Lee Daniels comes into TIFF 2012 with a world of buzz for The Paperboy, and although the response hasn't been as ecstatic this time around, Star Zac Efron has shown his vote of confidence in the Film, coming out to promote it. Daniels was touched that I admitted how much Precious changed my life and told me I was v. sweet. Regardless, I'm still excited to see this one when it hits theatres next month!

#TIFF12: PENÉLOPE CRUZ IN TORONTO FOR “TWICE BORN”
Academy Award-winning Actress Penélope Cruz is every bit as charming in-person as she is on the big screen. Although, rushed upon arrival of her new Romantic Drama Twice Born, she did promise to come out and sign some Autographs afterward. Unfortunately though, she first agreed to taking a Photo before her Handler advised there was no time left and then she later told me she had to go. Heartbreak!
Cruz's Husband Javier Bardem also currently is in-town doing promotion for his Documentary, ...
