One time I was shopping for CDs and I saw Lisa Bonet from the Cosby Show. She was with a woman and I couldn't hear nothing really because music was loud but she was telling her friend "I can sing".

I've met MANY famous people.

I've seen Tony Danza! In Manhatten! 2 summers ago, he rollerskaked past our car.

some NFL football player was at the mall in FL last summer...

Back in the 90s at the movie theater in Regina when my mom went with me to see The Secret Garden, I saw Howard Thornton, who was the CBC news weather reporter back in the 90s. Other than that, I've never seen anyone else famous, but my dad has a friend who has a neice who knows Sarah McLachlan. I've never met her, though.

I got to meet the following NASCAR drivers in person. Jeff Green(Daytona 500 pole sitter) Kyle Petty, Ken Schrader, Matt Kenseth and Steve Park. Oh and Lake Speed who is now retired. I got pictures and autographs from all of them. I also have seen Lonestar, Alan Jackson, Tim McGraw, Collin Raye, Clay Walker, Toby Keith, Charlie Daniels, Kenny Chesney (people got to meet him in Pamida when he was here) John Micheal Montgomery, Clint Black, Alabama twice all in concert.

There use to be a detroit lions training camp in saginaw so i net a lot of them, I was Alice cooper in mt. pleasant coming out of a movie theatre. and my little cousin tripped over david swimmer's suit case in an airport once. that would have been cool but she yelled at him telling him to get his stuff out of her way. god spoil childern suck!

I thought we were talking about meeting *famous* people here. :p


As for me, I've met plenty. It's no big deal. Although one of my prouder moments in life was when Pete Townshend flipped me off.

**tear**

My favorite thing to ask a celebrity is "How are you?" Why? They're so used to having people say stuff like "You're great" or "I love your work" it kind of throws them off-guard when they hear a normal everyday question like "How are you?"

Kind of sad when you think about it.

Well, I saw Martina....on stage.....walking......being shecksy.....:D

I've done this already... i have to many to name but i recently met
Priscilla Barnes (Terri-Three's Company) in houston a few weeks ago...

Does Chealsea Clinton count? lol I haven't exactly met her........but I think I saw her in a window while we were at the White House in D.C.

I've met Tom Berenger (yuckie)
Bonnie Raitt
Ellen Burstyn (I was TOTALLY wrong about her, she's a really really sweet person and the best part is-my sweater still smells like her!!! :D)

well i haven't saw anyone famous but some friends of mine have my friend , maegan, recently saw Jason Cook who plays Shawn off of "Days of our Lives" and my uncle is a massage therapist and he gave Al Gore a massage the other day...lol....if he counts to be famous :happyface

hmm i have met Steve Spurrier , Danny Wuerful, and some other people that I am forgetting that obviously cant be too important.

I have seen out in LA on my trip : Baz Lurhman ( almost had heart failure but I didnt go up to him because he was eating dinner ) , Dennis Quiad, and Kobe Bryant.

Susan Surandon, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Ben Cohen(of Ben & Jerrys Icecream), Patti Smith,Ramsey Clark and Bob Dylan.

only like more local bands.. but theyre not famous.. I said fo sho to the guy from lucky boys confusion... i dont wanna talk about it.. and I talked to TOby Mac.. kinda

My aunt and my gramma saw Richard Gere in the airport.

Andrew McCarthy (80s brat pack actor) sat behind me in a theatre when I went to see Phantom of the Opera. He was with what appeared to be his parents so, after the show, I just smiled from my own seat. He smiled back, said hello and we both went on our way.

I also met Sebastian Bach of Skid Row when he was starring in Jekyll & Hyde. He was really down to earth, approachable and affectionate...very huggy, hi-fiving people n' stuff.

Jerry Springer had a small part as the narrator in the Broadway version of Rocky Horror Picture show. Afterwards, he chatted and signed autographs. He's a really funny and sweet man.

My husband is the Chief of Investigations for a magazine publishing firm in NYC and he gets to meet the really good people! Like Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise, Angelina Jolie, Halle Berry, Liv Tyler, Uma Thurman, etc. He's always coming home with little autographed post-its for me lol which is cool but obviously the thrill would be in meeting them yourself :)

I"ve met ALOT of people most of them local I've met ALOT of the Portland Trail Blazers and IN FACT one of my Coworkers at work is Damon Stoudamires Cousin (by Marriage but still)
other then that
I've met the Lawrence boys (Ions ago this was when Matt Lawrence was 12 or 13)

I once saw the guy who does the sports on one of our local channels. That's the closest thing I have to a celebrity sighting - celebrities don't come to my neck of the woods.

Tobey Maguire

Bob Dole came to our town to help with his wife's campaign

Nope, sadly I haven't ever met ANY celebrities

Do I know any famous people? Oh, sure!
Julia from t.A.T.u. is waiting in my room for me every night when I get home from work! :grineyes:

Lisa Whelchel

I met the cast from Dr. Dolittle when we got to watch them on set.

I saw Michael Jackson in DisneyWorld when I was in 7th grade.

Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker) was in Disneyworld one of the 3 times I was there but I can't remember which one and I saw him.

Mel Torme stayed in a hotel I worked in in 1991, his limo/car broke down on the Interstate behind the hotel. I was STUNNED - I live in a small town, it was a shock to see him there!

I was drinking at a bar last weekend and Ethan Hawke came in to pick up a burger order.
He's one of those celebs who does the hat over the eyes thing, but it was him...

Nobody really, really famous but I've seen a lot of sports players such as Nomar Garciaparia, Manny Ramierz (sp?), Pedro Martinnez, Johnny Damon, Mo Vaughn, Cal Ripken JR, Paul Pierce, Antonie Walker, Anfernee Hardaway, Shaquille O'Neal, Dirk Nowitzki, Nick Van Exel, Michael Finley, Steve Nash, and Mark Cuban. I'm a sports guy. :p
