Seen: Kris Humphries + More Celebs

He may not be with Kim Kardashian any more, but Kris Humphries continues to draw the crowds. The NBA star and Sector watch spokesperson headlined Mohegan Sun’s Signings & Sightings event this week, where he met with fans and signed autographs. Later, Humphries showed off his basketball skills at Mohegan Sun’s Shine 360 photo/video booth. Humphries was spotted having a late night bite at Bobby Flay’s Bar Americain restaurant located on property. A nice bit of levity for Humphries, who is dealing with divorce depositions these days...

Whenever celebrity chef and cookbook author Mary Ann Esposito is in town, you know that there's a lot cooking.  The best-selling author and host of America's longest running cooking show, Ciao Italia, has been kicking around little Rhody for two weeks now. Mary Ann and her staff and crew were busy taping the 23rd season of Ciao Italia right here at RI PBS. This year the Ciao kitchen greeted special guests on the set that

included Chef Jasper White and Italy's Consul General for New England, Giuseppe Pastorelli.  Not only did she and her guests cook up traditional regional Italian favorites from her new book, Ciao Italia Family Classics, she was seen buying flavorful cheeses at Costantino's Venda Ravioli on Federal Hill, and stocking the Ciao Kitchen at Brigido's Fresh Market in Scituate. She was also spied at Providence's downtown eatery, Local 121, tucking into some hometown fare.

Television royalty was in the house this week at Twin River in Lincoln. It wasn't enough that legendary comedian Don Rickles was on stage, cutting up the audience in his uniquely hilarious fashion, but it was who was in the audience laughing it up. None other than Regis Philbin and his wife, Joy. The hardest-working man in show biz retired last summer from his popular morning show, Live! with Regis and Kelly, but rumors are swirling this week that Philbin may come out of retirement to co-host the Today Show's fourth broadcast hour, reuniting with his former Live! partner Kathie Lee Gifford. When Gifford left the show in 2001, the equally sassy Kelly Ripa of All My Children fame took the chair next to Regis. Viewers have always loved when Joy would sit in when one of his co-hosts was out, and it was great to see this longtime couple together in Rhode Island.
