Mancy blogged about this the other day. I just saw it and had to blog it too.
Someone put up a video clip on Youtube of Pharrell Williams trying to convince the employees at a Paris Airport McDonalds to open up early so he could get some food before his connecting flight back to the US:

Pretty hilarious... in fact I knew Pharrell was a McDonalds fan before this too... from he and NERD performed at the BAPE Anniversary show in HK last year (with Teriyaki Boyz and Kanye West).
As you may know we were one of the cohosts of the after party with Silly-Thing. I staked out the entrance to get some pics of the VIPs arriving and posing for press photos. Pharrell and his entourage arrived in a van shortly after I arrived. They were all carrying bags of McDonalds take-out. They made their way towards the entrance before some of the handlers stopped Pharrell to have him pose for media photos. He was talking on a cell phone at the time and stopped talking for a moment to pose, then someone realized he was still holding the McDonalds take-out bag in his hands and quickly grabbed it away so it wouldn't be in the newspaper photos.
Here's my photo, he's still on the phone with his friend:
"big mac, filet of fish, quarter pounder, french fries, ice cold milk shake, sundaes...."
