The troupe of A-listers fighting against dirty, smelly trash coming to their pristine neighborhood have hit a bump in their road to a reek-free corner of Manhattan. The group — which includes celebs like Jennifer Connelly, Kirsten Dunst, Michael Stipe, James Gandolfini, Lou Reed and John Slattery — has been fighting against a new sanitation garage in SoHo. They filed a lawsuit against the city's plan, and the NY Post reports that this week the judge has tossed it out with the trash, allowing the city to start work on the $400 million garbage garage. The residents are still deciding if they'll file an appeal, and are still hoping for a better alternative.
