Jay Leno Sighting Today On Topanga Canyon Blvd In Woodland Hills

I was driving back from Santa Monica today.  I enjoy taking Topanga Canyon Blvd back whenever I go “over the hill.”  I stopped at an “Estate Sale” on Topanga Canyon Blvd just north of Mulholland Drive and when I was leaving Jay Leno drove by me in some wacky antique car.  As many of  you know he is a car nut and pretty active in car events here in the San Fernando Valley.  Can anyone identify the car for me?  These pictures are a little bit larger than I normally post for some added detail.

Update: Thanks to Kris for sniffing out the car information, seems like it is a 1915 Hispano-Suiza Aero Engine Car.  See this video to learn more:

Woodland Hills Resident And Former Warrant Frontman Jani Lane In Legal Trouble

It’s funny because I was once with a friend of mine at Ralphs on Topanga Canyon Blvd & Ventura Blvd when he pointed this guy out to me.  His quote, “That guy’s a mess.”  I’m told he is a frequent shopper at that Ralphs, along with Michael Clarke Duncan who I’ve seen there numerous times.  I’ve also seen Duncan at The Baker and Whole Foods.  I’ve also seen Lou Diamond Phillips at Ralphs a couple of times.  Okay, now I’m babbling.

Former Warrant frontman Jani Lane was a no-show for two recent court appearances, and now there’s an active bench warrant out for his arrest, according to reports. Lane was scheduled to appear in a Los Angeles court on Feb. 23, a date stemming from his 2009 DUI conviction. Lane was expected to prove to the judge that he’s finished alcohol classes and community service.

But Lane was nowhere to be seen. So the judge rescheduled the hearing for Feb. 24, giving Lane a second chance before a warrant was issued. Of course, Lane didn’t make it to the rescheduled court date either. So now he’s considered a wanted man.

TMZ.com reached out to Lane’s lawyer, who claims his client’s been in the hospital and won’t be able to make it to court until next week. Lane was arrested last June after he allegedly hit a parked car in the Woodland Hills area of Los Angeles. He was detained after refusing to submit to a sobriety test and pled no contest to one count of misdemeanor DUI a month later.

A month before his arrest, Lane was on ‘The Johnny Dare Morning Show’ and discussed his path to sobriety, saying, “It’s just a matter of deciding you’re done, in my opinion. I mean, that probably oversimplifies it, but really — really and truly — you have to go, ‘You know what? I’m done with this. I don’t like feeling like this, I don’t like living like this.’ And it’s also nice to get the creativity back, which is impossible to flow when you’re unconscious.”

LeAnn Rimes Wished Me A Happy Thanksgiving!

I stopped by Whole Foods this morning where, after picking up a vegetable, I turned to see none other than LeAnn Rimes standing 14 inches behind me!  I summoned some courage and said, “I don’t mean to be awkward but I had to say ‘Hi.’  I love the way you sing ‘How Do I Live.’  She said, “Thank you” and “Happy Thanksgiving” and walked away.

I guess she must be either living in, or spending a lot of time in Woodland Hills!  Cool!

Oh, and Happy Thanksgiving to all of you!!

LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian Visited Jerry’s Deli on Saturday

Looks like a celebrity couple and their paparazzi pursuers were out yesterday at Jerry’s Deli. JustJared.Buzznet.com reports:

LeAnn Rimes wraps her arm around boyfriend Eddie Cibrian as the two leave Jerry’s Deli in Woodland Hills, California on Saturday (November 14).

I guess this Eddie Cibrian is on CSI – not my cup tea – but a female friend of mine has this to say, “He is hot.”
