LA Celebrity Sighting No. 2: Milla Jovovich

I'm in LA, so of course one must visit Fred Segal. A trip to Fred Segal usually entails a celebrity sighting, although with my luck it's usually the minor ones. Once again, FS doesn't disappoint. Of course I drag along my good friend Nicky Getty.

Since this is LA, I must purchase something white, so I go with a little white cocktail dress from Gucci (Robi is taking my later this week for my first spray on tan so I won't look like a ghost). It seems every third woman in LA is wearing white; it's quite disarming. While I'm making the purchase, I spot Milla Jovovich.

I"m never one who has a problem engaging in banter with a celebrity. I of course to the obligatory,

Miu: "Are you Milla Jovovich?"

Milla: While not directly looking at me, she answers, "Yes I am."

Miu: While racking my brain trying to come up with a film she was in, I blurt out - "You were the best part of The Fifth Element." (Knowing for a fact that Chris Tucker was, but I wasn't talking to Chris Tucker.)

Milla: She smiles, and says "Thank you."

Miu: She obviously knows I just lied to her. But of course I press on. "Are you ever going to record another CD? I really love your singing voice."

Milla: "No. I'm sorry, I don't have time for this."

Miu: So the loving her singing voice comment threw her over the edge. No one to back down, I slightly shout as she's walking away "Any chance for a sequel to Joan Arc?"

Milla: She turns her head briefly and I believe mouthed the word "Bitch."

So I guess we will never know if there will be a sequel to The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc. I turned around to sign the receipt for my purchase, and the saleswoman was just staring at me. I said, "Well at least I didn't ask for an autograph."
