Another A-lister is fleeing Brooklyn, according to today’s Page Six. The gossip column reports that Michelle Williams is likely to follow in the footsteps of her ex, Heath Ledger, and move to Manhattan because the Boerum Hill house she and Ledger bought a couple of years ago too big for just her and her baby. Further proof that Brooklyn is, like, totally over as far as the cool kids are concerned?

  1. Jigga man has sold us out with Atlantic Yards. Saw him last year at a contemporary art sale with his investment consultant. She was explaining to him why a triptych of three blank pieces of paper was worth a gazillion dollars.

  2. Who is she? When I read the name I was looking for a photo of the Michelle Williams of Destiny’s Child. Now if that Michelle Williams were in Brooklyn and decided to leave, I’d be upset because the way I see it she would have been good for a couple of Beyonce visits and maybe even a visit from the Jigga man himself. I’d have camped outside of her door just for a glimpse of Beyonce.

  3. That’s hilarious because when I see famous people in Brooklyn, I never expect them to be who they are.

    I saw Heath Ledger at BAM once and I was thinking- how do I know this guy- he looks so familiar? Then I saw Michelle and thought- wow, this girl is Nicole Richie skinny . . and then I made the connection.

  4. “Be real there isn’t much in the way of eye candy in this boro”

    Are you kidding? Some of the most beautiful black women on the planet are here and the gorgeous Russian girls of our beach communities and the sexy brown mamis… you need to leave Park Slope. There are beautiful white women in Clinton Hill. Put your butt down on a Washington Avenue stoop for an hour and you will see that parade. . .

  5. I can see why celebrities dig Brooklyn. We’re all too cool to stop you on the street and bother you, we just blog it out of our systems instead. And I’m not being facetious, I count myself in that statement. Whenever I see anyone famous I act like it didn’t happen, until I get home and talk about it ad nauseum.

    I guess as a famous person, that’s the most you can hope for: people pretending to ignore you, so you can lead a somewhat normal day-to-day life without throngs of people following you around like Britney, but still enough interest in you to get written and talked about.

    Except for the truly talented with great pr people, who somehow manage to work and keep their private lives totally quiet.

    I like having famous people in Brooklyn. I think it’s cool. When people who have all the money and flexibility to live anywhere choose your nabe, how can it not be good for your real estate?
