If you’re hoping to go Hollywood, you could always try out for the NBC’s “find a country star” reality show, “Nashville Star,” when it comes to D.C. for a casting call on March 14 and 15.

But if you still don’t get on camera, you could simply stare at some people who frequently do get screen time:

Here’s who you might see out and about today:

» 50 Cent around town promoting his latest album, “Before I Self Destruct,” and performing at Love.

» Afghan Ambassador Said Tayeb Jawad at Cafe Milano to “reluctantly” celebrate his 50th birthday.
