Below, Mark's 10 steps from soldier-to-nanny-to-premiere-Holl...

If you answer in the affirmitive (or if they take your bag and find spray paint or markers) its very likely they will s...

What if someone had balls to explore the possibilities?

The art of disguise is a very important skill to master, no matter if you're a hounded celebrity trying to ditch the paparazzi or just someone who'd like to step out of the house without being recognized. If you think simply throwing on sunglasses and a hat is a good disguise, you are so wrong.

We were at the El Capitan on Sunday and while waiting for friends to show up we walked over to the massive Cirque du soleil Hollywood premiere for a few minutes. Around the time we were there celebrities were arriving so we just started taking pictures.
