Neil Diamond riding the subway shouldn't be too surprising, since he was born and raised in New York, but the crooner is sort of a "big deal" -- so it's nice to see he's still swiping his Metrocard like the rest of us. One fan spotted him Wednesday around 2 p.m. on the N train and reports back, "I was coming from my office on 37th and 5th to take the subway to Union Square...the trains weren't so crowded...I saw a camera crew, and I saw Neil, and my heart leapt!." Alright, so maybe he only goes underground these days when he's got security and a camera crew with him, but the fan said he was quite a gentleman when approached about his show the previous night. He was reportedly talking to a British film crew about his Brooklyn days. [via Urban Prankster]

It's the same media that NEVER mentioned Muslims' hatred of Israel as a possible motive for 9/11.

Great. Now you have actual "gawker" posts. Of people gawking celebrities in new york.
Why not just RSS feed gawker into your posts so every post gawker makes will also be here.
I will be among the faithful flocking to hear the voice of the mighty Mr. Diamond tomorrow night at the midtown basketball arena.
What's he doing with a camera crew? I love neil diamond. But PLEASE lordy tell me there isn't going to be a Neil Diamond reality show.
Neil Diamond looks for love in the new hot VH1 reality series called "Turn on My Heart Light." I think i'd puke.
"Big Deal"
Yeah, people know him
He has many leather-bound books
Cut Neil some slack, he's New York City born and raised but nowadays, he's lost between two shores.
L.A.'s fine, but it ain't home and New York's home, but it ain't his no more.
;-)
They're coming to America,
Today!
Did I tune in to Gawker accidentally?
Is it "Sweeeet Caaaroline...."- "Bum Bum Buuum" or "wha aah oooh"?
I wonder if he saw any rats?
It's only noteworthy to me if the celebrity is out and about, very low-key, and without an entourage, ie. Caroline Kennedy on the Uptown #1 train, Michael Musto bicycling down 8th Avenue and 23rd Street, Chris Noth asleep on one of the Broadway trains, Rufus Wainwright and friend walking and talking up Lexington near Baruch College. (All real and delightfully mundane appearances).
Michael Musto is a celebrity? We're using that word loosely these days, aren't we?
Celebrity is in the eye of the beholder.
I am an English Neil Diamond fan and came across this post on your website whilst surfing the internet looking for news of him. I am also nutty about New York and hope to one day cross the pond to America to hear the Beautiful Noise of New York and to walk those Brooklyn Roads, If you Know what I Mean? In the meantime, I will sip my Red Red Wine, Believe in Happy Endings, because I'm a Believer that one day I will go on a Mission of Love to see you all!!!
cracklin' rosie get on board
the n train.
