Who are some famous (non-sports) people that live in New Orleans?

Any of y'all ever see them out in town? I'm NOT looking to star watch, just wondering. For some reason, it seems like New Orleans might be one of those places a celebrity might live to get away and not be seen.

Sandra B and Jesse James just bought a house around the corner by Commanders ... not sure how much she will be here
Lenny Kravitz owns a house still PT
Bradgenlina of course PT
Harry Shearer of the Simpsons fame
Alex Chilton before he passed yesterday (Big Star)
Goodman lives in the GD as well
Jennifer Coolidge
David Gordon Green (director)
Peter Buck (he did or does still maybe)
Nick Cage (owned a bar and several houses at one point)

Please don't be obnoxious with this. The stars who live here or who hang out in N.O. from time to time, like it that the locals don't "star gaze" at them all the time.

I once saw John Goodman driving range balls at City Park. I didn't bother him even though he was in the stall next to me and no one else bothered him. He seemed just as happy to be an ordinary guy doing an ordinary guy thing.

Wow, I meant I'm NOT looking to star watch (I never have). Going to edit that in now. Your 2nd comment is what I was figuring about celebs in New Orleans.

Yeah, when I used to run in Audubon Park I would see him working out there with Mackie Shilstone all the time. From what I could tell no one ever bothered him at all.

Didn't he move?
Helen Mirren had a place there, but sold it, but I'm not sure if she moved to another place or moved away completely.
Ellen D. still owns a place there.
