The next time you see someone famous in a New York restaurant, it might not really be them.
New York’s famed Peter Luger’s Steak House has borrowed wax replicas of celebrities from Madame Tussaud’s of Times Square to occupy space that, for now, can’t host diners.
They placed a faux Jon Hamm, of Mad Men fame, near the bar, as a novel way to enforce social distancing guidelines and limited capacity. They even have the Tonight Show‘s Jimmy Fallon at a table, while weatherman Al Roker points at the sky with his wax doppleganger at the bottom of a staircase directing diners to an upstairs area.
The concept can even stir up memories of classic Hollywood — with Audrey Hepburn posing as her Breakfast at Tiffany‘s character Holly Golightly sipping a martini. (Yahoo News)

John Mulaney has finished his 60-day stint in rehab and is said to be doing well.
The comedian had checked into a treatment facility last year for alcohol and drug abuse, including cocaine.
A source says, “John has completed 60 days in rehab and now he’s in outpatient sober care. He is doing well, although he is still not ready to return to work.”
Last year, a source told Page Six, “His fans know he’s struggled in the past with sobriety, he has talked about it openly. Unfortunately, he has struggled again during the pandemic.”
