...that has already passed away, who would it be and what would you tell them?! It can be anyone famous(President, actor/actress, etc.)

ooooh.... this is very tough.
cool thread idea!:)

... i need to think on that one

Frank Sinatra. As for what I would say...I'm not sure I'll have to think about it :). Marilyn Monroe as I'd like to find out what happened the day she died. Because I don't buy the suicide story.

President: John F. Kennedy
Music Artist: Tupac Shakur
Athlete: Jackie Robinson
Actor: John Ritter

Obviously I'd want to meet Vivian Vance. I'd probably drive her crazy asking millions of questions. :lol:

Then I'd want to meet Lucille Ball and I'd like to know what she went through to get to where she was as far as an actress, owner of a studio, and being married to Desi.:D

Ronald Reagan- talk about political things and about California.

Abraham Lincoln- talk about political things and his presidency/the civil war.

General Custer- talk about the battle of the Little Bighorn (but he probably wouldn't want to talk about it considering how it ended).

John Wayne- talk about general things (politics, his movie career, etc).

Elvis- talk about music and Cadillacs.

The I Love Lucy cast... I would bug them with zillions of questions

Jim Backus... I'd ask him to do the Mr. Howell voice
Natallie Shaffer

and of course...
Alan Hale, I think meeting him would be almost exactly like meeting The Skipper, Alan really loved his character.

LUCILLE BALL: I would cry. I would tell her she was the first person that I ever watched on television that made an impact. I would go on and on and on.

PRINCESS DIANA: I would want to hug her and tell her what a beautiful lady she is inside and out and to thank her for all the charity work she did. I would also tell her how great it was for her to visit and actually "touch" people with AIDs in hospitals, especially since at that time, no one wanted to be near people with AIDs. So much I would chat with her abt.

JOHN LENNON: I would ask him what I could do in this world to help achieve peace. I would tell him how he is my fave Beatle. I would love to sit and just eat dinner with him and Yoko.

SOPHIA LOREN: I would chat with her abt her childhood and the war. I would also want to know her beauty secrets.

Elvis, I'd ask him to go easy on the prescription drugs so he could stay around a little longer. I loved his music.

Jim Morrison, would love to have hung out with him and would also ask him to go easy on the drugs. I also loved his music.

Dick York - I so loved him as Darrin on Bewitched. I'd ask him all sorts of questions about making the show. Even when he was broke and in failing health, he never gave up and never stopped helping others in need. I would ask him how he managed to keep such a positive attitude instead of sinking into despair as many others would have. Finally, I would ask him his secrets to a happy marriage. He was as much in love with his real life wife, Joan, as Darrin was with Samantha. Through the good times and bad, sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, they were married for over 40 years until he passed on in 1992. Here is the link to his memoirs and pictures: http://www.newpathpress.com/.

Other than that, I would've loved to meet Elizabeth Montgomery, Agnes Moorehead, Karen Carpenter, John Lennon, George Harrison, Jack Soo...the list goes on and on.

Dudley Moore
Don Knotts
John Ritter
Peter Cook
Jack Lemmon
Walter Matthau

As for what I would talk about, i'm really not sure, whatever came up in conversation. With Dudley Moore, it might be mostly music.

John Lennon
Jim Morrison
John F. Kennedy
Thomas Jefferson
Abraham Lincoln
Alfred Hitchcock
Stanley Kubrick
and others

Maurice Gibb
Andy Gibb
Steve Irwin
John Lennon
George Harrison
Elvis
Buddy Holly
River Phoenix

Quite a few others too.

I'm not sure what I'd say to them.

John Ritter and Lucille Ball. I'd tell them how much I admire and idolize them, and how they could always make me smile no matter what was going on in my life. I've always been in awe of both of them.

I have already met some semi-famous sports celebrities. I met Shaq and a few players with the Miami Heat. I loved the fact that they were easy to talk with and they didn't let the fact that they are sports stars get to their head.

As for TV celebrities, I would love to meet Bruce Willis. I would love to ask him what it really was like working with Cybill Shepard.

I'd want to meet Selena. Id tell her watch out for that crazy B***h Yolanda Saldivar. I still miss her so much. :(

John Lennon - I would ask him why he treated Cynthia (his first wife) and his son Julian so bad.

The entire cast of "I Love Lucy."

Redd Foxx

Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin

I'd love to meet John Lennon, River Phoenix, and John Ritter...

I'd probably talk to John and River about music, and just listen to John Ritter tell me jokes all night :D It would be fun!

John Ritter. I'd tell him how much I admire him.

Elvis Presley, too. I don't know what I would say to him, though.

Samantha Smith--The girl from Maine who started a correspondence with then Soviet Priemier Yuri Andropov. She visited the Soviet Union in the early 1980s and met with other children--and Russian children visited here. She was a great ambassador (was known as 'America's Youngest Ambassador'). I think she had a big influence on peace between our two countries.

I would love to meet her. I would ask her what began to motivate, or inspire her to start writing to famous people.

kurt cobain-were u killed?

Living:
Martha Stewart

Dead:
Vivien Leigh

JFK: Meet with him on November 21, 1963 and tell him to not go near Dealey the next day!

Yea, ok Ala, you've met some famous sports celebrities... and I've got a bridge to sell you:rolleyes: . I myself would love to meet Richard Thomas. I'd have so many questions to ask him. And of course the late John Ritter. And Henry Winkler and David Conrad (from 'Ghost Whisperer').

Your comment is very rude and uncalled for. How do you know she has or hasn't met them?

Getting back on topic..

Ronald Reagan
Peter Boyle

Are a couple of names i'll add to my list.

How do you know who anybody has met before? Are you psychic? Geeze.

For your information, I have met them. I live close to where the Heat play and my best friend is married to one of the players. Unless you know something for a fact, don't call me out because you won't win... I know who I have met and don't have to prove it to you. Sounds to me like your jealous again Auntie. I have pictures to prove it, but don't and won't post them for you or anyone else.... Oh and I have pictures of my son and hers playing together, but do you think I am going to post them for everyone to see? Not on your life! The tabloids would be all over that one!! And I for one value our friendship over anything else on earth......

Now, back on topic, I would love to meet:

George Eads
Marg Hellenberger
William Peterson

I would ask them if working on CSI is as much fun as it seems.

Dale Earnhardt Jr.
Tony Stewart

Wouldn't ask them much, just want to stare at them for awhile.....
