What ever happened to those guys? They were huge hero's of mine growing up. I hope that doesn't date me too much.

Wow. I'd like to meet her someday. What the hell does she see in Sambora?

Niki & Krissy Taylor. I dated a girl who's parent's had moved to Miami and lived near the Taylors and my ex hung out with them the last year she was in high school. We went down and visited them every now and then. Met Niki a few times and we all hung out, dinner & drinks, a couple of times. Only met Krissy once briefly before she died.

the taylor sisters are/were HOT!!

I say hi to Barry Scheck often. He's a professor at my law school.
I bumped into Jane Curtin behind my school.
I smiled and said hi to Jeanine Garafolo right next to my school.
Talked to Anthony Bourdain in a diner right next to my school.
My school is on 5th ave and 12th street. One of the nicest blocks in manhattahn. Always shooting films there, and loads of stars live on 12th between 5th and 6th.

I met Gary Sinese in Sacramento once, and then I met Bobby Jackson in the local Best Buy...
we were both buying video games and that sparked the conversation.

 

[Aceshigh]

I met Tommy Lee Jones during the filming of "Space Cowboys".

He was really cool and seemed really smart.

I also met Cuttino Mobley of the Houston Rockets at a casino in Louisianna.

He was playing roulette, betting big money. (and losing)

 

[MacBaine]

Levar (sp?) Burton stopped in at the concierge lounge at my hotel 2 years ago. Staying at the Yatch Club at Disney World... he just came in, got some food, wished us all a happy new years, and vanished.

 

[Ime]

Mariah Carey, about 10 years ago in a theme park I was a supervisor at. She was really nice and well mannered.

My fiance and I were skating in Central Park and we stopped right by where Woody Allen and his asian chick were sitting on a bench. There was already a crowd, but we joined in. Didn't say anything to them though.

Hell I've been in NY all my life and THAT was the closest I've ever gotten to ANY celebrity. So sad.

Dude, you gotta get out more.

 

[Supermercado]

Well, don't know if it counts or not, but we went to see TRUSTcompany at a local record store a couple of months ago. Met them afterwards and hung out for a bit. I've got a book signed by Star Wars author Michael A. Stackpole, but one of my friends got that signed for me and mailed it to me, so that doesn't technically count, but it's still cool. I guess Trust Co. is the closest.

Wait a tick... I may have met George Bush (the first one) while he was President. I remember going to see the White House one time when I was in Cub Scouts and we were out on the green when he landed from a weekend at Camp David, but I can't remember if he actually came over and talked to us or not. I don't think so...

 

[Placer14]

Let's see... Jamie Foxx, Cameron Diaz, Al Pacino!!, Oliver Stone, Richie Havens, BB King, Bela Fleck, Jeff Coffin, Victor Wooten, Vic's Brother "Future Man"...and a few other less importnat ones..

 

[Swanny]

William Shatner. I've run into him in Kansas City the last few years during the American Royal Horse Show. I haven't talked really, just walking past him or going past his stalls. He's usually got enough people around him that it'd be useless to try. He usually stays at the same hotel as us too.

 

[WinkOsmosis]

One tends to not see many celebrities in Houston. My art teacher saw Yoko Ono at an exhibit though...

My brother is friends with the Sister Sister producer, if that counts (is someone like that considered a celebrity?).

Edit: Oh yeah, V.S. Naipaul is my dad's cousin.

 

[deerslayer]

No.

 

[SOSTrooper]

Richard Gere and Robert Zemeckis.

 

[Cat13]

My dad is pretty good friends with Lee Majors (6 million dollar man). A while back when I was home on vacation we met him and his "new" wife for lunch. Wasn't Farah, but she was an ex playmate. Not too shabby

Joe Pa, walking out of a dining hall on campus in Happy Valley. I was a prospective student at the time, and although he wished us luck in getting in to PSU, and I did get in, I decided not to attend there.
