Have You Ever Met A Celebrity?

[hello_kitty]

I've met some country singers that I don't expect too many people to know who they are... Chris LeDoux and Pam Tillis.

Kevin of the Backstreet Boys grabbed my hand at a concert, does that count? LOL

I've met tons of people in punk bands/in that scene... Henry Rollins is really short but scary because he has muscles! Fat Mike from NOFX, Good Charlotte, Bouncing Souls, The Ataris more time than I can count... so many more that I cannot remember. I dunno, these people don't seem like celebrities to me because they tend to hang out and party with fans and be "normal." It ususally doesn't take much to get close to them.

Alien Ant Farm...

That's all I can remember off the top of my head... there's been a lot of lesser knowns, like sitting in the same room with the guys that created Facebook, LOL.

16 times?! Damn! Haha!

I've seen them 4 times... 1998, 1999, 2005, and 2008. The 2008 concert I got kicked out of about 15 minutes into it by a roided up security guy that apparently has something against little skinny girls and their husbands... long story. I was about 4 row so that was kinda sad. In 2005 is when I touched Kevin, my friend and I ran up to the front row, security was really lax. We should've stayed there, because about 30 seconds after we went back to our seats Nick walked over to where we were

When I was a teen I was such a huge fan... really bordering on an unhealthy obsession. Now I look back and laugh, but I still enjoy catching their concerts every once and awhile for fun.

I have met a few:

Tyson Beckford

Vivica Fox (I was afraid to touch her because my hands were freezing cold):

Ice Cube: I have a pic with him in King Magazine June 07 issue (although I have never seen it). I was told by a several "male" friends that I was in the magazine. I didn't believe until the 3rd person said I posed with Ice Cube. By this time, I couldn't find the magazine anywhere.

I met him at a party during NBA Allstar Weekend. I also met several other celebs, but I actually conversed with him. He is gorgeous in person, as on screen.

Ermm...Flo-Rida lol

He came into my work two days in a row and his card was declined

Ahahaha, happens a lot though to US customers, not a big deal.
He was nice - gave me a nod the second day cuz he recognized me as helping him the day before. No photos - some girl rushed in afterwards though and asked for one lol.

I was on a band trip to NYC/Boston in grade 12 and we went to the Empire State Building one day. Mariah Carey was visiting so the entire building was shut down to the public; we waited outside for an hour! When we finally got off the elevator on the top floor, my friend and I raced off.

My dad (chaperone) and band teacher were behind us on the elevator, and apparently Mariah Carey was a foot in front of us waiting to get on the elevator! And we just ran past her..My dad got to meet her and shake her hand (he says she's so tiny in person).

I'm not a fan, so I wasn't too upset at the missed opportunity, but I feel like an idiot for not noticing.

 

[hello_kitty]

Ooo, I forgot... I met Hulk Hogan at a car show! It was when his son was doing drifting, and their pit location was across from where my car was parked. I couldn't spit any words out because I was too busy looking at how massive he was, but he called me baby doll, LOL

 

[greengoesmoo]

My two both happened in Soho, other than seeing Wolf from the Gladiators in a panto..

I didn't actually MEET him, but I walked past and ignored Jerry Springer last summer. I didn't realise it was him until my Bf poked me in the arm and said "Omg, you held that down well" I hadn't noticed him at all.

I was on my way to buy some cherry liquer in Chinatown, and had to wander through a couple of streets of soho en route and OMFG!!!! None other than my ultimate hero of all time Tom goddamn Baker strolls out of a bar (might have been strip joint) I RUN!!! I RAN SO HARD!!! Squealing "OMFG TOM BAKER!! My earliest memories are of you omfg!! Squeal!! burble burble" he even carries a pen for those occasions!!! :O

He responded "Yes yes dear girl", signed my train tickets, gave me a hug then made a quick exit. All the while my face was nothing but teeth and giggles!!! I actually feel really awesome just typing about it.

It was pretty fucking awesome! I was shakey for the rest of the day!! My only regret is I didn't just act calm and ask to buy him a pint!!

I could have had a beer with His majesty Tom Baker, but I was such a stupid fangirl I blew it. lol

Oh, and I have shared a J with Dave Taylor from the James Taylor Quartet, but I have also helped him up off the floor after too many pills. We go to the same jazz club. LOL Jazz club. I can't believe I admitted that!!
