Diane Keaton, Kathy Bates? See more celebrity sightings in Asheville, WNC

I spy with my little eye on some celebrities in Asheville and western North Carolina.

Asheville is well known for attracting tourists, and even big movie stars, musicians and other celebrities can’t deny the allure of North Carolina’s mountains. Recently some of the stars of ‘Summer Camp’, filming in Hendersonville with Diane Keaton, Kathy Bates, Alfre Woodard, Eugene Levy and Beverly D’Angelo, were spotted on the streets of Asheville touring the mountain town and all its quirks. has to offer.

The towns and villages of western North Carolina have been home to many familiar faces, whether they’re filming nearby, playing a gig at the Orange Peel, or just vacationing.

Take a look at some of the stars spotted in the area over the years.

Several people have posted photos on social media of Keaton in Asheville over the past few weeks. Keaton won the Best Actress Oscar in 1977 for her role in “Annie Hall” and was nominated for the Best Actress Oscar three other times: 1981 (“Reds”), 1996 (“Marvin’s Room” ) and 2003 (“Something’s got to give”).
