Celebrity Spotting in Paris

A lot of celebrities and famous people visit Paris.  Sometimes, they are far from the public eye.  Other times, they are seen walking down the street.

Friends living in Paris recently spotted a famous person, one of the most famous people around.  While returning from dinner out one evening, they think they spotted Mark Zuckerberg and his wife Priscilla walking along a sidewalk.  To be sure, they caught up to the couple at the next intersection and looked over.  Sure enough, it was Mr. Facebook.  Our friends said hello and Mark smiled in reply.  (No bodyguards were evident, which seems odd.)

We had a similar experience.  On a recent afternoon, while walking near the Louvre, we spotted one of the most famous basketball players of all time.  He was riding a motorcycle scooter.  We quickly snapped a photo.  Check it out:  MJ in the flesh.  

Note:  Thanks to eagle-eyed brother Mike for pointing out that MJ is on a scooter, not a motorcycle.  A scooter?  What’s up with that, MJ?
