That is often the question. And the answer is SPY! We decided to test our secret agent skills on Clair Danes and her hubby Hugh Dancy on Lower East Side yesterday.
Well, what really happened is that my partner in crime Lasse Engeland and I went to check out the New Museum as a cultural attempt. But the art mission was suddenly interrupted when we noticed the whole Danes-Dancy bunch. Yes, Clair even had her parents with her.
New Museum is not very big, so it was hard not to be noticed. At one point I was even stuck in the same room with Claire and her dad, and uhm, this awkward movie (aka art) with naked old people that was spinning on the screen. I left after 2 minutes, but Claire and her dad was probably in there for 15 minutes watching this old guy having sex. I repeat, awkward!
After taking the elevator 15 times up and down to try and catch a photo of the couple without looking like complete stupid stalkers, we FINALLY got a little glimpse. I had to pretend that I was taking a photo of Lasse so I wouldn’t get busted, but I guess I already was, because the couple suddenly walked determined towards the exit door… Check out Hugh’s outfit. Is this how you are trying to impress your future parents-in-law, Dancy??
As if that would stop stalker Moe! Lasse and I were going in the same direction as them, and we after all this proof we think the wedding bells will be ringing any minute now.
The Danes-Dancy bunch stopped by SoHo Garden and bought a bunch of flowers before they managed to escape. (Claire is the one in the black coat.)
Lasse in real stalker speed style down the stairs. If you want to read his version of the story - visit his blog.
While we are waiting for the cute couple to tie the knot, the New Museum is worth a visit. Perhaps you’ll run into the cultural Dancy-Danes bunch as well?
