Have you ever met anyone famous? Post a pic!

i met paris hilton in 2004 maybe? i forget when,but i was with my mom @ gloria jean's coffee in north star mall (where i used to work,but i was off that day,just there shopping. i worked in the mall,but not the coffee shop) in san antonio,tx.
she was in line in front of us,but i wasnt paying attention at the time,i was deciding what i wanted to drink. my mom said "isnt that paris hilton?" half jokingly. i said "behave mom" without even looking. she grabbed my arm and said "no i think it really is" so i looked and just about fell over right there. she looked just like her! so my mom says to her "are you a paris hilton impersonator? you look just like her." my mom was so sweet about it,we honestly didnt think it could be her. then she says to my mom "no,i am her."
i freaked out!
back then,i was a big fan of hers,although now i don't see why.
anyway i was freaking out,so excited. i was digging around my purse for a pen and paper and got out my camera,and held it in my other hand while i searched. her bodyguard says to me "no pictures allowed". im like "um ok,i wasnt going to take a picture anyway."
so i get my pen and paper and my mom hands it to the guy shes with to give to paris,lol which was nick carter,but we didnt realize/care.
she signs it for me,and then everyone realizes who she is and everyone started following her.
that was pretty much the day i stopped liking her.
her attitude killed it for me.

anyway,ive met numerous band members.
my little brother met one of my future husbands (though i dont think my real husband would approve lol)....john cena.
my little bro is sooo lucky. he has a picture with him,im so jealous haha.

I just saw Kirsten Dunst at the airport a few days ago, I was too nervous to say anything to her, but she stood like 2 feet in front of me, she looked like shit.

 

[xsnowwhite]

i met the cast of viva la bam it was pretty cool not gonna lie
and i saw paris hilton she was doing some promo at my mall but i dint go up to her or anything.

 

[miss_dre]

I met Jully Black the other day.
I work at LaSenza and she came in looking to buy panties and a pj because she had lost her luggage. So i helped her pick some out and she bought the stuff i chose for her. It made me pretty happy even though i'm not a huge huge fan of hers. She's alot prettier in person than she is on tv though.

Um, not sure if these guys count as celebrities... but I've met Demetri Martin- the comedian... HILARIOUS! Also, I recently met David Sedaris, a writer I love, he was SO nice and SUPER fuuny.

ooh i love justin hes a little young but still cute lol

And i get what you mean about her hair, when she was in the shop she had it in a long plait, i think it looked a bit better that way, but i think it makes her look really young, so when she was wearing the bright red lipstick, she just looked to young for it, if that makes sense lol.

I was in 3 scene's. 1-The opening scence in the library, where they only show heads... hehe. One of those heads is mine.
2- It's an outside scene with Kate Hudson and some other chick in the school outside.
3- When the cops come and get Joshua Jackson from the classroom. I was part of the "classroom"... hehe, nothing to exciting really.

[MAC_Whore]

I am related to a celeb (no, I won't say who

), so I have met a fair amount of people by circumstances of his career. On my own, I have encountered a few celebs. I just seem to have random "right" place, "right" time meetings. Like, DH and I met Gwen Stefani by happenstance once , for example. To be honest, I don't like to approach celebs. I feel like I am invading their space. They are like animals being hunted by paparazzi now. I feel sorry for most of them. Notice use of the word "most".

I have a friend who is NOT AT ALL the type to seek out celebs or hunt for photo ops or anything like that, but she ALWAYS runs into people in NYC. She recently had a random introduction to someone at a boutique and next thing you know, she was invited to and attended a party at a well-known designers apartment for a trunk show!

Most random, well-known person encounter I have had is not at all with a celeb, but one day I am eating at a restaurant, I look over and they guy at the table next to me is Bill Gates. I wanted to slide my check over to his table, but I fought off the urge.

Oh and I was an extra in a movie. Yes, I am "crowd". Should I go for my SAG card?

 

[ledonatella]

Back in the 80's i saw Boy George in LA on Hollywood Blvd. with a huge posse around him, I didn't really care much because I was like 10 and wasen't real into him. We had a local family win Extreme Home Makeover and Ty Pennington was at our salon during that because we sponsered the event and the workers were volunteers from our company, my friend did a massage on him and saw his everything! He was an ass though. I've seen Newt Gingrich at our mall when he was Speaker of The House (he has family here), as well as R. Kelly (same) and Steffi Graff the tennis player (family as well). Oh, I did a banquet thing with Tommy Hilfiger who was a complete ass. But around here mostly I get people who know celebs but not the celebs themselves, like I did Oprah's producer's wedding but Oprah I did not see (damn! I wanted a new car!). Or like I do local news people's makeup but they are hardly famous. I would love to actually met a big celeb (like Madonna or Cher) just to see how surreal their life is!

 

[MrsRjizzle]

i met a few

E40
Tech9
KrisZz Kalico
Kutt Kalhoun
and a few others you probably havent heard of.
local bay area people..

Oh my God! I am so insanely jealous. The Tea Party have been one of my absolute favorite bands for about five years. What I wouldn't do to just see them live.. but they are no more.

I've never met anybody famous. I know a lot of people/bands in the black/death metal scene.. but, they're not what you'd call "famous". Even the most popular bands aren't exactly well-known.

I asked ST about folks coming up to him all the time and asked why didn't he do the incognito thing like most celebs...ha ha. He said, "I gave that up a long time ago, I can't disguise this mouth."

 

[ndn-ista]
