What 'famous' people have you seen/ran in to?

I've met many of the Star Wars actors and actresses at conventions.

But my favorite memories are from when I met Sean Astin and Joss Whedon.

Very, very nice guys.

Me and Sam!! I mean... Sean.


Me and Joss Whedon

Karen, I'd love to meet George Lucas. Just to say hi and shake his hand.

IRescue.... I met Gaelic Storm after they performed here in East Lansing. Other than from Titanic, I had never heard of them. They signed the CD I bought and I've been a fan ever since!

My sister won backstage passes to a Bare Naked Ladies concert. She also got to interview them for the local radio station. I tagged along and when she wasn't interviewing someone, I chatted with them. They are so funny.

I've met the band Better Than Ezra.
(I doubt anyone knows who they are)

When my hubby and I were on our way home from our honeymoon Halle Berry was sitting two rows in front of us on our plane!

What's weird is that when my sister and her hubby were on there way home from their honeymoon, they met Keith Richards in an airport and got pictures with him.

Since my hubby's been living in Las Vegas, he's been seeing a few famous people, last week he held a door open for Pete Rose and his wife. He always sees famous people when he drops in the Hard Rock.

I served John Tesch and Connie Seleca when I worked as a waitress in Branson, MO. Saw George (Sr) and Barbara Bush twice, (when I still lived in MO) once in a small town parade and then my high school band played for a reelection rally held in Springfield. David and I met Penn and Teller after they put on a show at the university we were going to. Only people I can really think of

I've met George Bush at some thing where he was getting ready to leave on his jet. He told me to listen to my mother, and then I shook his finger through the fence. He was really nice.

I had the chance to meet Britney Spears, but was too scared totalk to her. I was only 8-9...

I have met Leann Rimes...

I think thats about it. lol

Well we don't get quite as many opportunties to run into big stars here, but we are getting more down under nowadays, as we are making some very successful movies here, but alas I have never seen anyone famous here.

On my trip to Universal Studios many moons ago, I was really annoyed that not one famous person was about, they claimed they were all out on location, just my luck eh?

My son is best friends with singers Daniel Bedingfield and Natasha Bedingfields cousin, if that counts.

I would love to meet Simon Baker,from The Guardian, he is such a hottie.

I have only ever seen Eagles, and Ricki Martin, and Donny and Marie Osmond live on stage, front row seats for the osmonds, but the others were a long way back, I won tickets to the first two, and even though I was not a big fan of Ricki, his performance was fantastic.

P.S The cute dentist from extreme makeover(cannot remember his name) was here down under for a Dental Conference, he is someone I would have loved to meet, he seems so caring and sweet, and he is cute as well.
