Spotted: Kristen Stewart at Hooters, Sarah Silverman at Woofstock, and a lot of Johnny Depp
As TIFF goes on, Toronto’s relationship with its A-list guests starts to change. We’ve reached the uncanny valley of star-spotting, where it feels like all these people just live here all the time, strolling around Ryerson, eating chicken wings and posing with cool dogs. This is the most exciting part of the festival—and the time when things sometimes get a little weird. Let’s dive in!
First up, Depp watch: all of a sudden, Johnny Depp is all over town! This weekend he ate at the Shangri-La’s Bosk restaurant with his wife, Amber Heard:

Speaking of the Shangri-La, its bar is emerging as this year’s best bet for enterprising celebrity stalkers: Jake Gyllenhaal, Dakota Johnson and Joel Edgerton were all there last night:

We’d never realized how much we wanted to eat at Hooters with Kristen Stewart and Nicholas Hoult until we knew they’d already gone without us:

A gentleman and his dog ran into Sarah Silverman at Woofstock, and together they all took this perfect photo:

The same man later ran into Idris Elba, officially making this the greatest weekend of his (or anyone’s) life:
And finally, no matter where you go, Kevin Bacon is never far away:
