I don't think they were referring to Hilary per-se, rather the overall celeb-demographic with the wussy little micro-dogs they often dress up to look even more retarded. I second the sentiment.

Thanks for the sighting!

Actually the dog was very well behaved. She had surgical dressings that she took with her and the dog (in its carrier) into the restroom in case there were any doggie things I suppose. Most of the passengers didnt even realize there was a dog. I suppose she travels a lot and likes to have her dog with her so a small one is necessary. I was sort of struck by the fact that she seemed to really take care for the dog and when she was talking to other passengers I would have never guessed she was a celeb. The give aways were, she sort of looked familiar, a UA ground employee asked her to autograph about 6 blank tickets which I thought was really inappropriate on the part of the employee, and some people recognized her at GDEWR and were calling out to her. She seemed like a nice kid with a very well behaved dog.

This is second-hand, but:

Charo, in the LAX RCC on 12/13. White leather pantsuit, white leather hat and big white sunglasses. I would have liked to have seen that.

The guy who played Erkel, on UA891 LAX-NRT 12/13. He was dressed "hip-hop style" and he got an op-up from C to F, and the gentleman with him (dressed similarly) got one from Y to C.

This one's a bit sketchy: Onboard UA891 12/13 (upper deck) was a famous musician (male, 50-ish) who changed clothes during the flight and retrieved a bass or guitar case from the rear closet after arriving in NRT.

I remember I met Richard Dreyfuss in the ORD C RCC. I was coming inbound from PDX and caught RCC still open. He was at the CSR desk getting some help. Shook his hand. Very nice fellow.. although short
