Star Gazing
Living here in the capital of a cultural mecca, we get a little blasé about the stream of celebrities that hang out in Berlin. Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes were here with little whatshername for most of August, Robert Redford pops up now and again, Matt Damon and Clint Eastwood sightings are common, Will Smith was here last month for his movie premiere, and local favorites Brad Pitt and Angela Jolie just bought a loft apartment for their family in the heart of the city. Media are calling Berlin the “new New York,” with an exploding cultural life and a grittiness and lack of paparazzi that’s appealing to artists and the Hollywood crowd.
This week it’s getting a little crazy again during the Berlinale, Berlin’s international film festival. The Rolling Stones kicked off the week with Martin Scorsese to plug their new documentary, and today Penelope Cruz, Scarlett Johansson, Daniel Day-Lewis, Natalie Portman, and Madonna were busy kissing cheeks, giving interviews, and walking the red carpet.
For Jost and me it’s intensified a problem that we’ve had since we arrived—we just can’t leave the house without being mistaken for Brad and Angelina.
Yes, here it is again—ambushed by the paparazzi.
Please don’t hate us for being beautiful!

Ahhhhh you made my day!!! lol can't wait until you are back in MY photo land, and it's ME snapping those pics!
Don't sell yourselves short...you are WAY COOLER than "BrAngelina" and "TomCat"!!!!!!!! We miss the Famous Zetzsche Family, and can't wait for your return! (Although it's been nice not having to share the spotlight...Ha Ha!)
Love ya! Susan
The resemblaance is uncanny!! Does this mean that you are also planning on having up to eight kids (recent skimming of PEOPLE mag informed me of this brad&angelie factoid while waiting for my kids' haircuts)? We wish we could be there with you. I'm OFTEN mistaken for Andie McDowell, and Doug tells me that people used to tell him he looked like Steve Perry.
