Celebrities, Atlanta, Recent Events

There's no business like show business
Spotting celebrities in the ATL isn’t exactly a big deal. Still, it’s not every weekend that newly minted “Late Night” host Jimmy Fallon pops into town, as he did last Saturday, March 21. The “Saturday Night Live” vet was the featured attraction at A Tony Evening, a 40th anniversary celebration/fundraiser for the Alliance Theatre at the W Midtown, where he performed for a crowd that included event chairperson Victoria Palefsky and Alliance Artistic Director Susan Booth.
Fallon wasn’t the only star making an Atlanta stop last weekend: Angel, the 4-and-a-half-year-old star of “Beverly Hills Chihuahua,” dropped by Centennial Park on March 20 to oversee canine auditions for an upcoming Disney “Buddies” flick. The event, which was tied to the release of “Chihuahua,” “Space Buddies” and “Bolt” on DVD, drew lots of hopeful hounds—as well as the lovely CJ, morning co-host for 95.5 the Beat, with her 4-year-old toy Chihuahua Zoe.
