They say you’re no one in Manhattan until you’ve fucked a celebrity or a model. “They” must hang out with a different kind of crowd than I do. Because, to my knowledge, neither I nor any of my friends have fucked anyone who could even remotely be considered a celebrity. We’re not starfuckers. (Update: Bro would like the world to know that she’s not against starfucking. “If I knew any stars to fuck,” she says, “I would fuck them.”) Anyway. Yeah, so, even though I’ve never fucked a “celebrity”, I met one yesterday. Ethan Hawke. At 3:00pm, Andy Milonakis’ sister and I walked along the sunny streets of Midtown Manhattan until we arrived at Borders on Columbus Circle for his book signing. Ethan Hawke’s first novel, The Hottest State, seems to be getting a revival now that the movie version [trailer: YouTube] is out in theaters. At Borders, he stood on the stage and read pages from his book while Jessie Harris strummed various chords on an electric guitar. (Jessie Harris is the guy who wrote Norah Jones’ “Don’t Know Why“; among other things, he’s also the composer and producer of The Hottest State’s soundtrack.) I don’t think I’ve ever been to a book signing where they actually accompanied it with live music. That was kind of cool. If you’re interested, you can buy the book or the soundtrack online. DVD comes out in December.

Ah, Ethan Hawke. Although I originally had other plans for today’s Manly Monday, I kinda had to go with Ethan. I was impressed when I found out that he not only wrote the novel and screenplay for The Hottest State, he also directed the film and starred in it, too. Multi-talented little boy, isn’t he? “I think most people are good at more things than the world gives them the opportunity to do,” is a quote that’s often attributed to him. At the book signing, I asked him if he considered himself more creatively authentic as an author or an actor. His answer? “I think they’re all part of the same thing. It’s all different types of storytelling.” Good answer. If I were a starfucker (which I’m not), would I fuck Ethan Hawke? Sure. Why not? What about you? If you could meet (or hook up with) any celebrity right at this very moment, who would you pick? Lenny Kravitz? David Beckham? Paris Hilton? Halle Berry?
