| If this is true, I fear for humanity........ http://www.contactmusic.com/news.nsf/story/gerard-butlers-toilet-shrine_1163752 Gerard Butler's Toilet Shrine Fans of Gerard Butler have reportedly dedicated a toilet in a store in Michigan to the actor after he relieved himself there. Gerard Butler has his own shrine - in a public toilet in America. The 'Bounty Hunter' actor has become so popular in Melvindale, Michigan, that a local store is giving tours around the bathroom, because the Scottish hunk once relieved himself there. A source told National Enquirer magazine: "Turns out the place where the locals go to have a brush with fame is located in the back room of the Ace Sprinkler Company - and it's the store's one and only toilet! Gerard, who's in the Detroit area shooting 'Machine Gun Preacher', stopped to the use the restroom one day and later posed for pictures with the owner's two daughters. Once he went back to work, the gals invited all their friends to take a tour of the place where he relieved himself, and it's been the talk of the town ever since!" Gerard is not the only celebrity to find fame in a toilet. 'Inception' actor Leonardo DiCaprio recently had to hide in a public bathroom after soccer fans watching the World Cup in South Africa saw him pop into the room. The toilet cubicle was suddenly inundated with members of the public desperate to catch a glimpse of the star.

| Guess they aren't the only fans in Michigan who have a thing for the toilets that Gerry has used.......

If Michigan Is The New Hollywood, How Come I’m Not Seeing Any Movie Stars?
You know what is really annoying me? Besides the fact that leaves are already falling off the trees and the air is getting chilly, signaling the end of summer?
OK. Here…
The Metro Detroit area is swarming with movie stars because we are becoming quite the new Hollywood dontchya know, with movies and television series being filmed all over the place. Hugh Jackman and his children. David Arquette and Courtney Cox. Miley Cyrus. Gerard Butler. Ray Liota. Just to name a few of the big ones. I know there are more, I’m just not up on ALL the celebrity gossip, I mean sheesh…I have laundry to do and mouths to feed and tweets to tweet or twat or whatever…you know.
The thing that is starting to bug me is…
EVERYONE. And I mean EVERYONE. Has been seeing all these stars out and about. Dinners, the park, picking their kids up from camp, bars…
EVERYWHERE.
I was getting my nails done and listening to some girl talk about the fact that the movie being made with Gerard Butler is being filmed in her house. So she’s met him. Like…MET him. He has sat on her couch. AND her toilet. She could make a fortune on eBay with the sale of a toilet seat shat on by Gerard Butler.
People are having BBQ’s with Hugh and his babes because they are neighbors. And their kids are playing together. He is swimming in their pools. WOLVERINE is SWIMMING in other people’s pools. I wonder if they will ever put chlorine in their pools again. I wouldn’t.
HELLOOOOO.
But me? Nope. Not a single one. No Hugh. No David and Courtney. No Miley. No nothin’ for me. Not even a BBQ hot dog to choke on.
But then again, it’s not like I’ve been going out on the town so much. We’ve been hanging out around the house a lot this summer. Poolside, thanks to scorching hot weather.
I saw more stars 10 years ago in Birmingham than I do now. Gabriel Byrne almost got his foot run over by my stroller and he said excuse me while I drooled and stuttered at him. I’m smooth like that.
And…I don’t want to brag but Keanu Reeves was checking me out at a bar in Birmingham. Or, it might have been the guy who was standing next to me.
Maybe now that it’s getting cooler out, I’ll put on my Mukluk boots, a Pashmina wrap, big glasses grab my camera and go hunt them down myself. But that would be too stalker-like. Which really, at this point, I might be OK with.
Or maybe Hugh or Gerard (I figure we can be on a first name basis, seeing as it’s my blog) will come across this blog post, feel sorry for this poor, middle aged Mom and I’ll get an invite to dinner. I’ll bring the wine. Perhaps a nice Late Harvest Riesling from our lovely Leelanau Peninsula? I have lots of that.
Or not.
Well, I could always just drink wine with my husband and make him talk with an Australian accent and a mask made from a cut out of Hugh Jackmans face. After a few glasses, I won’t know the difference anyways. So, it’ll ALMOST be like I met and got to hang out with one of our celebs.
ALMOST.
Or not.
OK, so obviously, I need to get out more.
Or wait!
Maybe I’ll clean up my yard first (maybe it was one of those snotty stars that left that note, you never know). Then, I’ll follow them on Twitter(I don’t follow movies stars on Twitter but I may have to make a couple exceptions considering) and send them a Twitter e-vite to a BBQ at my house!
Disclaimer: Just in case any of you movie star types in the area stumble across my blog because I totally know you have google alerts, I’m COMPLETELY joking about the stalker type behavior. But, if you want to come and hang out at my house and drink wine, I’m totally cool with that. Don’t mind the hidden cameras in the bathroom and stuff…

| It could be worse. When I first glanced at the first article's title, I thought it said, "Gerry's Toilet Shame".
I thought maybe someone when in after him and he forgot to flush or something.......then again, I could see someone making that a shrine after the whole cod-piece sniffing debacle.
Yuck. | |

I'm not sure what's worse...offeriing the tour of the crapper to your friends, or being the friend that comes to take the tour. Besides, depending on what Gerry had to do in there, he might not have actually sat on their toilet. Maybe they should have told him not to flush, so they could save the toilet water and it's contents. | |

| Holy shit! You know what's even more disturbing? We have toilet and poop smilies. Didn't he go to bars? Sat on chairs, stools, tables? Sang karaoke? No Gerard's mike? Gerard's stool? (Ok, that could be seen as more toilet crap.) Gerard's table? Gerard's chair? Gerard's glass, plate, fork, knife, spoon, napkin? At the very least, how about Gerard Butler washed his hands at this sink with this soap/soap dispenser? I hope he washed his hands. | |

| It's WAY past sad. Makes you wonder how far people will go to make a little money or get a second of tenth-class, third hand, fame by proxy.
It's ugly to think about, but it's been with us for centuries.
No wonder anyone in the spotlight needs bodyguards. | |

| You think that you've heard it all, and then you hear something like this.
Stars make the kind of fans that reflect their personality. | |

| This ridiculous little story keeps spinning. All say the same thing though.
May still be lingering like a 'bad smell' because nothing else has come a long to replace it. http://www.heraldsun.com.au/entertainment/confidential/gerard-butlers-toilet-stop-filming-machine-gun-preacher-now-a-shrine/story-e6frf96o-1225914489099 http://gossipvita.com/tag/machine-gun-preacher/ http://eklmnhost.com/celebrities-news/gerard-butlers-toilet-stop-filming-machine-gun-preacher-now-a-shrine/ http://www.bloginity.com/blog/2010/09/05/gerard-butlers-toilet-shrine/ http://news.in.msn.com/international/article.aspx?cp-documentid=4346646&vv=800 | |

| @ Dallas. Love the rant! You described exactly how I felt. Left out of the "hollywood" loop. I wish I had the time to drop my normal routine of working and raising a family to chase down celebs that come to town and then try not to feel like a total weenie with no life for doing so! I don't go clubbing so my chances of running into anyone is pretty slim. I too, long ago, sent out an offer to Gerry to stop by my shop and I would GIVE him an antique stove, but alas, he did not. And i could not bring myself to stalk him at Toast where he would go eat breakfast most mornings. But, if you want to have a little fun, and you have a little time, try to be an extra on a film. That is how I finally got to be in the same room with Gerry. I was an extra on MGP thanks to a notice posted here. And I am telling you now, it was soooooo worth taking a day off work to do it!! Next up, hoping to hear from Transformers 3. They are looking for extras for the Detroit shoot. | |

Maybe you should have offered him an antique toilet. | |

They aren't really meant to be disposable, you know. But, if it's just the seat being used is bothersome, maybe we could find an antique Crapper from a ladies room. I assume that TRUE ladies always "hovered", and the unsullied seat would be a real asset. (or would that be ass-not-set?) | |
