Where the famous hang out in London

Google have launched a new section within their domain showing where some of London's more famous residents like to hang out.

They have consulted such names as Ken Livingstone and Kelly Holmes and lead singer of Madness, Suggs, and asked what their favourite places in London are.
Then, using Google Maps, these places have been set out and marked with customised "pins".

If you are familiar with Google maps you will immediately recognise the format, but what is really nice is to find out more about your own city through the eyes of these celebs.

Go see the celeb maps for yourself here.

  1. I don't get it? Why doesn't anyone famous hang out in Sidcup? (Just kidding - I have a fair idea why not many cool people would choose to hang out in my little corner of London!)

  2. I noticed that not many people seem to have a favourite spot around Wimbledon Chase.

    Perhaps we should have had South African or Antipodean celebrities, as they seem to be the main residents of these parts...
