Last week, several celebrities were seen on the Mohawk Valley.

First, emmy-winning actress Glenn Close took time to chat with fans at Mitsuba in New Hartford. Close was in town to bring her daughter back to school at Hamilton College. One fan told the OD, “Mostly everybody in the restaurant did recognize her. There was a young boy that actually walked up to her and asked her if she was the actress.” The Damages star will return to Clinton in May for her daughter’s  graduation.

There were also rumors that Michael Jordan was at the Lava Nightclub in the Turning Stone last on Sunday night. According to several sources, the NBA great was in town to watch Tiger Woods play in the Notah Begay III Foundation Challenge.

Rounding out the sightings, a source told us they spotted Jamie Foxx at the Wal-Mart in Herkimer!

We’ve received several tips that there is actually a movie filming in Utica this week! Though there has been no coverage of the shoot in the local media, Facebook and Twitter have been buzzing with calls for extas and potential locations for the film. So far, we’ve heard film crews were spotted downtown, at The Tram and at the train station.

We’re assuming, due to the lack of security and formality surrounding the shoot, that this is just another student or low budget film so don’t expect to run into Bobby De Niro anytime soon.

Everyone’s favorite will-they-won’t-they couple Jim Halpert (John Krasinski) and Pam Beesly (Jenna Fischer)are headed to Niagara Falls for their wedding this fall on NBC’s The Office.

Greg Daniels, the executive producer of The Office confirmed that director Paul Fieg was in the Falls last week to scout out locations for the wedding.

Maybe the wedding can make up for the closing of the Buffalo branch of Dunder Mifflin in last season’s finale. Asked why the Buffalo office was the one that was closed down, executive producer Paul Lieberstein (who also plays Toby) dryly said, “Sales were down. We had to close somewhere. We can’t close Utica. . . . It was really a toss-up.”

According to E!, they were filming next season’s third episode last week and the wedding will take place in episode four so it looks like they could begin filming in Niagara Falls as early as this week.

Today Show hosts Meredith Vieira and Ann Curry visited the Sagamore Resort in Bolton Landing on Lake George last week where they broadcast a potato sack race with local children, fishing and other activities live. The show was part of The Today Show’s series “Today Show Takes A Vacation” which also visited Key West and San Antonio, TX.

Kate Johnson, director of the Lake George tourism department, said the number of visitors to the area is down this summer, but the arrival of track season at the Saratoga Race Course and the national TV exposure are “certain to bring more people here.”
