How many times has someone asked you “do you see celebrities all the time in NYC?” Usually, you respond with a shameful “no.” However, finding celebrities in NYC is not all that hard. Check out some of the places below to see where you can find some of your favorite celebrities!

1. The Apple Store

The Apple Store in SoHo holds various events where those who have recently starred in movies, released albums, created mobile applications, or anything else tech related, are invited in for an interview. These events are open to the public and free of charge. All you have to do is visit the website listed above and RSVP using your Apple ID. Guests have included Blake Lively (for the release of her film Age of Adaline), the Kardashian/Jenner Clan (for the release of their mobile applications), Alessia Cara (for the release of her album Know-It-All), and many more.
