As the Top Chef season finale draws near, personalities from the show are popping up everywhere. First was judge Gail Simmons, also of Food & Wine magazine, spotted by a Stalker at a 'wichcraft, sporting "ALIEN EYES!" Then came the wicked, be-hatted former contestant Spike, in YouTube comedy video form. In which he pretends to have a boner. Now if only we could encounter people we actually like from the show like Casey or Lia or, siiigh, Sam. Full Stalker email after the jump, plus Spike's boner video.

Subject: Gail Simmons — ALIEN EYES! Spotted Gail Simmons, from food&wine/topchef at 'wichcraft this morning getting her java fix. Was with a young Asian kid, talking about Tila Tequila. Sounded somewhat like a jerk, insisted she "wasn't flirting with Tila Tequila." Didn't look so alien-like upclose. Wonder if Tom will reimburse her for the latte?
