Where the stars sit in the audience depends on how big a celebrity they are. Jack Nicholson, for example, nearly always sits in the front row. All the big stars are in the first ten rows. Once they're in their seat, they have to wait for a commercial break if they want to go to the bathroom. and they need to be quick. If they don't get back to their seat before the end of the break, they won't be allowed back in until the next break. If that happens, they have to wait outside and watch it on TV like the rest of us!
